j2me fileconnection java.io.IOException: Root is not accessible

Question

 FileConnection c = (FileConnection) Connector.open("file:///c:/myfile.txt",Connector.READ_WRITE);

        if (c.exists())
        {
            System.out.println("exist");

            }
        else {
                System.out.println("no exist");
                c.create();
        }

        OutputStream out = c.openOutputStream();
        PrintStream output = new PrintStream( out );
        output.println( response );
        out.close();
        c.close();

in the above code I m getting the following error:

   no exist

The file file:\\c:\myfile.txt exists. How do i go about now ?

Looks like you need to set the MIDLet Permissions.

Note you might get this working on the simulator but you will need signed code at least to get working on a real device.
