    WP: 4.0
    IIS: 8.5
    MySQL: 5.5.38
    PHP: 5.4.20

    Error 1: NextGEN Gallery : Tables could not created, please check your database settings
    Error 2 when uploading images into gallery: Could not write to file. Please check filesystem permissions. Filename: D:\HostingSpaces\(XXX)\(YYY)\wwwroot\wp-content\gallery\gallery1

    Read through the threads, tried what I can with my current access, didn’t work, I conclude that the permission aren’t set right.

    Problem 1: I’m not the IT guy, I don’t have the direct access to tweak the settings, I would need to send a request to the IT guy with explanation on what needs to be done, etc
    Problem 2: If it matters, updating WP is out of the question, the site is too old and customised to handle newer WP, tried it on localhost, broke more things than I can count

    What is the proper permission needed for an IIS server for NGG to work correctly?

    @curiositykillsthecat – Generally speaking, the tables not being created is due to the WordPress database user not having *ALL* privileges set. That would be the first thing to look at but being able to update to the most current version of WordPress (as well as all active plugins and your current theme) should be more important.

    Thanks!
