writeline permission denied

[Dodo]

I'm trying to append to a file a string such as the following: 127599.0
127838.5 14.434 87

first error - 500 internal server error
refresh
second error - echoes string...does not append file
refresh
third error - permission denied

Any ideas greatly appreciated!

<%set
file=server.createobject("scripting.filesystemobje ct").opentextfile(server.m
appath("mpg.txt"),8)
file.writeline(request.querystring("start")&"
"&request.querystring("finish")&" "&request.querystring("gallons")&"
"&request.querystring("octane"))
file.close%>

Does IUSR_machineName have NTFS permissions to write to this file?
