This is for LiveWire. I'm having trouble getting one of our perl scripts to use the built-in PERL "rename" function that renames a file.

It keeps saying access denied, but I have set the owner of the file and both the move from and move to directories to be livewire's userid.

The file permissions are 755.

Am I missing something?

Make sure the permissions are correct. It should not say access denied unless that is wrong. Perl is aggravating because the smallest thing could cause an error.

Again, I've gone over the permissions and they are all correct.

I fixed the problem, I had written down the wrong userid for the account on the new server.

I was going to say: try 777. But, fair enough. I've done that 100's of times with MySQL.
