Tried on both Core 7.7 and 7.9.

Every time I try to use the update module I get something like the following error:

(views_slideshow_slider)

Error installing / updating
File Transfer failed, reason: Cannot remove file /WebSites/BockSites/sites/all/modules/views_slideshow_slider\LICENSE.txt.

or

(date)

Error installing / updating
File Transfer failed, reason: Cannot remove file /WebSites/BockSites/sites/all/modules/date\CHANGELOG.txt.

It happens with all modules but the file that cannot be removed may be different. Most of the time it is changelog or license.

System is windows server 2008R2 using IIS and Mysql. All other functions including installing new modules works fine.

Thoughts?

Hi, does this problem still continue? If so it has been suggested:

1) Check your file permissions
2) post a (partial) filemon trace. Apparently filemon has now been replaced with http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.

Cheers

I mistakenly posted this topic twice. See: http://drupal.org/node/1354898
for further information. I think it has to do with the IIS service running and having a hold of some of the files.
