v1.6.0 Server Move Issue

[awsilver]

I've searched the forum, found one scant similar issue (followed the instructions) but to no avail. Hopefully someone can help.

I've been running 1.6.0 on a Windows 2003 server for a while now, and we finally got around to upgrading to a new server. Moved everything over and now I'm getting the following error:

Error:
No language folder exists or the file "lang-english.php" is missing in that folder.
Make sure that you have uploaded all necessary files with the exact same names as mentioned here.

Host Information
URL http://theblog.redtrianglestudios.com/admin/index.php
PHP-version 5.2.5 (Pixelpost's min requirement: PHP version: 4.3.0 )
Session save path C:\WINDOWS\Temp
MySQL version 5.0.45-community-nt (Pixelpost's min requirement: MySQL: 3.23.58 )
GD-lib bundled (2.0.34 compatible) with JPEG support
File Uploads to Pixelpost site are possible.
Server Software Microsoft-IIS/6.0
EXIF Pixelpost is using exifer v1.5 for EXIF-information.

Oh, I might add as well, that the admin screens function flawlessly. Also, tried upgrading the thing to 1.7 and get the same error...so I've fallen back to what I know first...then I'll try the 1.7 (unless there is a reasonable thought that will get it running with the new version as opposed to this one).

All the setup was done exactly the same (as far as I can figure out), and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
AW

Is the language folder readable? Are the language files themselves readable? Check all your file permissions first.

I really thought I had gone over all the permissions (about 10 different times). So if anyone else runs across this, the solution was to basically ditch the default permission set and rebuild the root permission for the site from scratch. Apparently the initial server setup for IIS has something in the root directory default permissions which was being inherited by the child directories. Working like it use to now!

Thanks!!!!
