I was using InstallAnywhere 2008 earlier, after I shifted to InstallAnywhere 2010 I'm getting the following error while buiding my application. I checked the permissions on the IAClasses.zip its perfectly fine.

Update from one IA version to another is not always smooth, sometimes you may want to pass through in an intermediate version (like 2009). It also depends if you had custom code or not.
To get round this I unpacked the IAClasses.zip under a tmp location, gave it execute permissions and copied the com directory under IA home. This worked and the build completed without errors. But I don't see this as an actual solution to this.
