Hello

When we process XML export for VAT Statement, the xml file is created on a specific path (pic _01).

But the process execute an error when try to delete that same file (pic _02).

Does anyone have/had this problem and have any idea why this is happen ?

Note: no changes, it is all standard code

    IF the service user which is running the service does not have enough permissions then you may get that error, try to give to the server folder and all its subfolder full control permission for that user.

    Hi Suresh

    We did that, but you know that we cannot put permissions below \users. After \default and sons we cannot change. And we have Administrator permissions.

    But what is very strange is that process create the xml file.

    So the question is why the process execute the creation of the xml, and than when it runs the delete, we get permissions error. Is the same object... so CREATESERVERFILE, no problem, DELETESERVERFILE, we get no deletion permission.... Strange.

    We got some "ideas" from PT Official Microsoft Partner, here in Portugal, and they talk about some difference on machines regarding install process. Do you think that can be some installation "error", just like DLL missing or something like that? Do you know if this NAV object can have some relationship with some .net files system, or things like that ?

    Thanks a lot anyway for your help.

    I don't think it has anything to do with installation, what functions are you using to create file, may be you are creating file on the client computer and then uploading it to the server.
