 * I have a strange problem I’m unable to solve. I have just migrated over to a 
   cloud server. During the migration I moved two working WordPress sites without
   issue. I’m now trying to setup a third site using the same configuration as used
   in the other two; however, the Permalink functions is not working on the new 
   site.
 * The web.config files are all setup the same way but only some of the images on
   the new site show up and only some CSS elements are loaded when using a custom
   Permalink structure of: `/%category%/%postname%/`
 * Here is my web.config file:
 *     ```
       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
       <configuration>
           <system.webServer>
               <rewrite>
                   <rules>
                       <rule name="Index Rewrite" stopProcessing="true">
                           <match url=".*" />
                           <conditions>
                               <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
                               <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
                           </conditions>
                           <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" logRewrittenUrl="true" />
                       </rule>
                   </rules>
               </rewrite>
           </system.webServer>
       </configuration>
       ```
   
 * Any ideas what’s going on?

 * Found the issue to be related to permissions on the tmp folder listed in the 
   php.ini file.
