Download failed. Could not open handle for fopen()

I tried to use the automatic update feature for WordPress Plugins on my Windows Server 2008 R2 with IIS7. I setup the FTP account and entered the setting in WordPress. But unfortunately it did not work.

After setting

define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);

in the wp-config.php file I got the following error messages:

Updating Plugin SexyBookmarks (1/1)
Downloading update from http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/sexybookmarks.4.0.4.2.zip…

An error occurred while updating SexyBookmarks: Download failed. Could not open handle for fopen() to C:\inetpub\wwwroot\some_blog/wp-content/sexybookmarks.tmp.

You need to do the following two things to fix this:

First, add this to your wp-config.php file:

define(‘WP_TEMP_DIR’,ABSPATH.’wp-content/uploads/’);

Second, give the IIS_IUSRS account read and write access to the wp-content folder.

That should help.
