Try this code... and then compare it to what you've written:

PLEASE check your console... because you are creating autorelease objects BEFORE you create an autorelease pool and that will ALWAYS spam you console with warnings... methinks you're not looking in the right place if you say the compiler didn't give you any warnings with your code and that you got no errors when you

Thanks, all for the responses.First I changed the path to write to. The folder is writable. On GetInfo for the folder "MYTEST", I have set "Read & Write" permissions for: You can, Owner, Group, & Others. Is there anything else I need to do to make it write to that folder?As a side note, I am running an Apache server on the mac I am working on, and I can write PHP programs that will write to this directory.However, this is still not working. I am not getting anything under "Errors and Warnings" in Xcode. Also the program loads. However, after running the Debugger does come up.On debugger there are 5 listed. 0. asm objc_msgSend 0x90a594c0:1 1. ?2. asm -[NSConcreteFileHandle initWithPath:flags:createMode:] 0x92867509:13. asm +[NSFileHandle fileHandleForWritingAtPath:] 0x9287a5e6:1 4.

Or perhaps, given the nature of this error,which I missed, Ishould say "Arg!" Surely you got a compiler warning? If you ignoredthat, surely aruntime error? Check your errors, both at compile time and runtime(and treatwarnings as errors).Yeah... I was thinking the same thing... you /must/ have got warnings... eventually you would have gotten an Exception I think :)
