If you're running Xitami as a service, make sure it runs under an 
account that has access to write into the Xitami temporary 
directories.  To check whether it's a file permissions issue, try 
running the Xitami executable from a DOS window ('xiprosrv -d').  You 
can also try running the service under the Administrator user id 
(which should have access to all file systems).
