Trying to install 3.2 beta 2 using Exponential-3[1].2_2-winnt.exe on a WinXP SP2 system.

I uninstalled the old version, rebooted & then run the installation file. Completed OK. Clicked the shortcut on the desktop (that leads to the index.php file) and got the following (I can see the navigation top bar from the demo site):

Access denied

I guess, the setting of session.save_path is not correct for you.
It's in your php.ini files, probably in your windows directory.
See here:
http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/forum/install_configuration/first_install_access_denied_no_database_connection_failed_to_openwrite_file
(read the 2nd post for a solution)

It also could be a problem with your Database settings (see here: http://ez.no/developer/ez_publish_3/documentation/installation_and_configuration/troubleshooting/warning_failed_to_write_session_data_user_)

For more, search the website for "session.save_path"
