I am not sure what's gone wrong, but it isn't a permissions error, since
that's the error message that appears when GLI can't work out what's
gone wrong.

Try the following:
1.Quit GLI.

2. Use a File Explorer to go into your Greenstone installation folder.
Then go into its "collect" folder.
There find the last collection you created. Move it out of the way (out
of your Greenstone installation).

3. Then try restarting GLI and see if it can start up normally again.

Regards,
Anupama
