             Summary: Should we create the target folder before apxSecurityGrantFileAccessToUser?
                 Key: DAEMON-452
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-452
             Project: Commons Daemon
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: prunsrv
    Affects Versions: 1.3.3
         Environment: Windows
            Reporter: Gary D. Gregory


Our API apxSecurityGrantFileAccessToUser will fail if the target folder does not exist.

Shouldn't we create this folder in advance of this call?
