[Building Sakai] Problem converting BLOBs to files

Sorry. I skipped over this sentence:

The root folder (it looks like "C:\Tomcat 5.5\sakai\bodycontent") must exist and the sakai process must have rights to write new files to it (as well as read, revise and delete files there). The error messages imply that the problem might be in the permissions for the sakai process.
