    Hello,

    new to wordpress and experimenting. I have installed a fresh new install of 2.7.1 and when I add new themes, I get Broken themes with stylesheet missing error.

    I know it is my server that is causing the error.
    I have two servers one is running with WAMP and that works perfect, no issues.
    The other one (with the problem) is running on IIS.

    has anyone worked WP on IIS 6 on windows 2003 server. what am I missing?
    Oh by the way the default and the classic themes do work.

    now to all the IIS haters :-). Not my choice but I have to make it work on IIS. That is what my employer has and they can't change it.

    thank you all in advance.

    found the solution.

    I can't believe didn't check this early. It appeared that the theme folder didn't have the necessary folder permissions. For some reason the Inetpub/wwwroot/wordpress folder didn't not inherited the security permissions. After adding the appropriate accounts everything worked ok.

    hope this helps others. :-)
