Subject:  Re: Could not Create POST Data File

The server has enough disk space.
The message is:

Could not Create POST Data File c:\temps\FWT90.tmp 

c:\temps is the Temp Directory field of the FoxWeb Control Center.

What exactly is the service user account FoxWeb?
Thanks

The only possible cause of this error is FoxWeb's inability to write to the temp folder. I seriously doubt that your server does not enough disk space to hold the uploaded data, so this must be a permissions error.
The temp location is specified in the "Temp. Directory" field of the FoxWeb Control Center. Please verify that you are working with the correct location. Also, you may need to reboot, or run IISRESET from a command line (older versions of IIS may require this).
If you are still stuck after verifying the location and user rights, we can try to look at your server via remote desktop. You will need to send us connection informationto support@foxweb.com.

The temporary directory was assigned to a user "Everyone", with read/write access, but display the message "Could not Create POST Data File"
Thanks for any help.

When the size of incoming data is larger than 100 MB, FoxWeb saves it to a file in the FoxWeb temp folder (in your case c:\temps). You must make sure that FoxWeb has rights to read and write in this directory and that there's enough free disk space. Potentially there are two users involved: The user that the ISAPI or CGI module is running under and the FoxWeb service user. This is a temporary directory, dedicated to FoxWeb data, so the simplest solution would be to give "Everyone" read/write access. If you need more granular security, you will need to determine the IIS anonymous user, unless you are using HTTP Basic/Integrated authentication, in which case you will also need to handle the authenticated site users.
