Yes. You should make it group writable with "nobody" as the group. Use chmod and chown to change permissions and owners (i.e. groups). As a last resort (for testing purposes only!) you can set the directory "world writable", but then *anyone* with access to that host can write/delete/destroy the contents of that directory. This is obviously very insecure and not a good idea. But if you are only trying to get a quick error message then it might work for you. Normally I would have thought you would have a public_html or www directory in your home folder that would be readable/writable to the web server (and where you should write). ~Ramit This email is confidential and subject to important disclaimers and conditions including on offers for the purchase or sale of securities, accuracy and completeness of information, viruses, confidentiality, legal privilege, and legal entity disclaimers, available at http://www.jpmorgan.com/pages/disclosures/email. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
