"Permission Denied" Build Error
I'm getting the following error when i try to Build All. I've tried to set the /Pages/ permissions to 777 as well as index.html to 777. Sort of confusing as i haven't edited anything or changed any permissions since the last time I Built All.

Looks like you did not set the permission of your /pages directory to either 777 or 766 (depending on your ISP's server configuration and preferred directory settings...Communitech prefers 766).

How bizarre!? I looked at the mods for index.html and they said rwx-rwx-rwx (777) but i re-applied these same permissions and it works now. I wonder if this is a bug with WSFTP Pro?
