Very interesting... I can honestly say I don't know too many people running Apache on Win2K, but I've been thinking about it for a local server. Until I do, I can't be of much assistance.

What the program is complaining of is not being able to write to the file. You're right, its probably not a permissions problem, its probably a problem with finding the right file and directory. You might try changing the path... is "/twinight/" a home directory off of your HTML directory default? I think that's the problem... figuring out what that path should be should solve it.
