When I install this Blog, i can't continue to install. Please help me. I use Window XP pro SP2 - IIS 5 - Php4.3.1 - MySQL 3.23.54. This error below.
To check your local webserver installation, serendipity needs to be able to write the file ".htaccess". This was not possible because of permission errors. Please adjust the permissions like this:
chmod go+rwx c:\inetpub\wwwroot\khoa/
and reload this page.Checking to see if the database and tables already exists... they do not
Creating default database setup... Done
Creating primary author 'khoa'... Done
Setting default template... Done
Installing default plugins... Done
Attempting to write .htaccess file...... FAILED

Cannot write to file c:/inetpub/wwwroot/khoa/.htaccess. Please create the file yourself or check permissions

* Just copy the code below and place it in c:/inetpub/wwwroot/khoa/.htaccess in your serendipity folder:
# BEGIN s9y

It seems that your directory permissions are wrong, like the error mentions. Check your IIS config.
