    Using your ftp program right click on the text file on the server and click on Properties or cmod and then change the codes to 666.

    Another problem I commonly see on PHP systems is that the txt file will NOT be generated for you properly.. depending on permissions of the directory itself.

    If this is the case, you muse CREATE a blank file named the same as your AD file and then upload it and set its permissions.

    So if you've checked and double checked, and still can't find what is wrong, try making the file yourself (blank) and then upload/set permissions and see if it works. Worked for me.
