That's what I was thinking

The content management system is Joomla so its pretty well known and widely used so should'ent be a problem.

But I've tried 3 different support guys and all told me the same, I'd have to wait until the script made the file use able, I tried deleting the file but was unable so I changed the directory name and uploaded via ftp and worked fine once i changed the permission to 777 to make it writable.

This isn't a once off its every file, directory, image via the cms but when a zip file is uploaded it uncompress's no problem

I can live with a lot of things but my clients may not and I think it could make huge problems down the road, I'm just thinking I must try another host
