Access Denied. Permissions problem

[Fractalice]

Hello all,

I'm getting the dreaded "Access Denied. The file may not exist, or there is a
permissions problem" error.

I am the administrator of my site, and we're set up to use webdav. This error
ONLY happens when someone submits a page to another user for review. Once this
happens, the reviewer cannot publish the page. It just keeps giving this error.

I have tried to delete the _mm folders, locks, etc, but nothing works. Apart
from that, I'll soon have over 500 people using Contribute to edit pages, so I
won't be able to delete these folders and locks all the time.

Does anyone have any idea why this may be happening? All of my users belong to
the same group (www) and everyone has the same read/write permissions on the
server.

Thanks!

Egad! Don't delete the _mm folder!

Make sure your users have read/modify access to the _mm folder and the MMWIP
folder at the root of the site. We had the same problem, and doing that made it
go away. Temp files are stored there when doing a send for review.

That was 100% it....I guess my next question would be why is it that the
folders containing the drafts aren't getting the correct permissions. I have my
server set up to give the whole web directory 775, so this is quite perplexing!
