You are probably right, it looks like a permission problem. What is the OS (win, Linux) of your machine?
It's not about PHP.INI, If your operating system is Windows give write permission to the directory these text files reside. You can do it by using Internet Services Manager If it is a unix box (linux included) you can use "chmod a+rw filename" or "chmod 771 filename" to give write permission on these files to everybody. Maybe you have to give write permission to the directory too, I'm not sure about it.
