Re: Permissions denied problem during a commit...

This is just a guess, but I'm wondering if the subdirectories that are
created by the application are getting the same permissions as the
initial path. Do you have group set for +s? I think you need that, or
subdirectories can be created that don't carry the same permissions as
the parents...
