IIS7 File already in use - iis

Recently I've installed IIS7, but when I try to edit ANY file inside my wwwroot and save it it keeps giving me an error 'can't save file, file is already in use'. Even if I make a new .txt file and try to save it I get the same error. It's really getting annoying.
Been trying alot but I really can't figure out.

Stop your website in IIS Manager if you want to edit the files.
A better approach in the long run is to use FTP to edit your files rather than working directly on your web server.

Joomla 3 problems using Akeeba Release system with zip

I'm trying to use the Joomla ARS. I've set it up and it seems to work for everything except the download of zip files.
I've set it up so that you can see the file in the front end but when you click on it a:
The requested document was not found on this server
error is thrown.
I've tried directly linking the file and it downloads fine. I've also set up an article to check that it'll download and again it works fine. So I don't think there are any permission issues since the zip file can be downloaded just not by using ARS.
Finally I've also tried different file types in ARS and if I swap the zip file for an xml file or a pdf file they both download fine.
Any ideas about how to debug?
I figured it out :)
The site had add a suffix to url switched on which was stopping it getting the correct route. Changed that and it worked as expected.

Cannot write applicationHost.config

I am trying to deploy an application and I get the following exception
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800719F3): Filename:
\?\C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config Error:
Cannot write configuration file
I have many applications already hosted on the same server and have never faced the same issue. I am unable to create AppPool manually as well.
Something that you could do is go to inetpub/history and try using an older file that is not corrupt (you can use notepad++ to compare both for example).
Take care with the modifications directly on the file and the encoding used when editing .. I would recommend doing the changes via GUI or APPCMD/PowerShell to prevent this.

uploading new files to vhost. Need to change the privacy settings. Linux

My website has a feature that uploads files and displays them. So there is a folder in the public directory that stores those files.
But the main problem is that after each upload, I have to manually change the privacy of that particular file, otherwise it gives me error 403 Forbidden.
Can anyone please tell me how to make it world readable automatically, without me manually updating it each time?
This is Linux - Fedora
p.s. Just a beginner
Using php command - chmod($target_path, 0644);

Website loading deleted file

Working on this website I was going to add a simple .hide(); and onclick animate(); functions to a menu, but the menu div wasn't closed (stupid mistake). When I upload the file to the live website it hides everything in the website cause of the open div tag, obviously I fix it and also delete the jQuery function but when I upload the file to the FTP the website is still showing the old file for some reason.
More info: I already deleted the cache/cookies/history off this computer and reloaded the page and re uploaded the file. Also tried in 4 different computers with 3 different IPs I did a search of all the files and the code is not there anymore. Deleted the directory and it still shows up.
As i can suggest from your question, i can say its a stupid mistake. Happened to me a few times.
I would try the following:
Make a working folder of your "new" website - locally
Delete EVERY file and folder from your server (of course only your whole website)
Get sure that nothing is displayed when you open it at the browser, should be fail
Now load your local folder completely to the new, empty space at your FTP
Rather than re uploading the file. Delete it, visit it in your browser and verify you get a 404 and then upload it again.
I have had this problem before when re-uploading a file in some FTP clients.

Cyberduck uploads break node-dev/up/hotnode

I've been using Cyberduck 4.2.1 to connect to my EC2 instance to edit my Node projects. I've used Node-dev to reload my project/server as files are updated, but if I save the files through Cyberduck's Edit command, the server never really reloads and usually crashes.
I've tested with a few different editors (TextMate, Dashcode) with the same result. Node-dev restarts correctly when I edit files from the terminal. I have tried a few others that do rougly the same thing, hotnode and up. They all work when editing via Terminal, but fail when I edit files through Cyberduck. I think it has something to do with the way Cyberduck replaces the remote files when it is saved.
Does anyone know what might be causing this, and maybe suggest some changes to these github projects? If not, are there better Mac FTP clients that might not have this issue?
I don't know about Node-dev, but my educated guess is that it crashes because it reads a partially uploaded file. I suggest to try the Upload with temporary filename feature available as a hidden option in Cyberduck.
You can try CyberDuck 6.6.2 ....It works for me
