title: Umbraco installation step 2 - "Could not save the web.config file" - IIS Permission?
body: <p>I've managed (after much difficulty) to get to the second step of the installation of Umbraco CMS onto my local machine. I'm getting this error when I try to move onto the next step:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"Could not save the web.config file. Please modify the connection string manually. Access to the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\Umbraco\umbraco1\web.config' is denied."</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I've tried setting Read and Write permissions on the web.config file, the umbraco1 folder AND the Umbraco folder, but nothing, same error. Restarted IIS, rebooted, still no change. I've manually changed the web.config app key which it's trying to update, but there's no way to proceed on to the next step.</p>
  
  <p>There's obviously some random permission thing that I'm not doing properly, but I can't find it. On a slight tangent, when I try to open the Permissions wizard, nothing happens - any reason for this?</p>
  
  <p>I'm running IIS 6, if that helps anyone.</p>
