title: COMPASS CREATE Permissions denied
body: <p>I have gem installed both SASS and COMPASS using</p>
  
  <pre><code>gem install compass
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am trying to use the command</p>
  
  <pre><code>compass create .
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>to generate a compass project but when i do I get the following error.</p>
  
  <pre><code>Errno::EACCES on line ["897"] of C: Permission denied
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This appears as it is trying to create the <strong>config.rb</strong> file
  I am at a bit of a loss as it seems to be able to create both the <strong>stylesheets</strong> and <strong>sass</strong> directories </p>
  
  <pre><code>PS C:\Projects\tutorials\sass&gt; compass create --trace
  create config.rb
