    Hi all,

    I’m getting an error when i try to update any page using the theme editor even though all permissions have been set to 777… here’s the error i’m getting:

    PHP Warning: fopen(C:\Program Files\Ensim\Sitedata\weemel\Inetpub\wwwroot/wp-content/themes/default/style.css) [function.fopen]: failed to create stream: Permission denied in C:\Program Files\Ensim\Sitedata\weemel\Inetpub\wwwroot\wp-admin\theme-editor.php on line 49 PHP Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in C:\Program Files\Ensim\Sitedata\weemel\Inetpub\wwwroot\wp-admin\theme-editor.php on line 50 PHP Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in C:\Program Files\Ensim\Sitedata\weemel\Inetpub\wwwroot\wp-admin\theme-editor.php on line 51 PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent in C:\Program Files\Ensim\Sitedata\weemel\Inetpub\wwwroot\wp-admin\theme-editor.php on line 52

    It’s probably a simple problem since no one else seems to have it, but i can’t work out what it is… can anyone help? Thanks!

  • Check the permissions of your files/folders.
    The first error says that a file cannot be opened/written to.

    I’m getting the same error =( it just started happening an hour ago.. don’t know what’s wrong, geh. All of a sudden i can’t edit my themes or upload pictures.. although I can still post.

    Except unlike your error, mine says it failed to open stream: read-only file system in home/blahblahblah

    .. read only file system?!?!?! And I can’t change my permissions, they won’t let me.

    Warning: copy(/home/camiesty/public_html/esther/wp-content/xangapic.jpg) [function.copy]: failed to open stream: Read-only file system in /home/camiesty/public_html/esther/wp-admin/upload.php on line 170
    Couldn’t upload your file to /home/camiesty/public_html/esther/wp-content/xangapic.jpg.

    does anyone know what’s wrong..???

    I get the same problem on a blog I’ve set up for a mate on his IIS hosting account – never had this problem before on Linux.

    All permissions are set correctly so don’t ask me to check them! I reckon it’s something to do with WP being on IIS

    I’ve just installed WordPress for the first time on IIS and I’m getting this same error when modifying a theme. Has anyone found a solution to this? I’ve got full access to the server so I can make any permissions changes required. What should the permissions be set to?
