104 Error - not possible to complete the request due to file

I have attempted to read all of the topics created relating to this issue however I am still unable to get it to work. I had this working in a development environment where I know the full path however now I'm on a hosted server and cannot see the full path ie. C:\web\publicwww\

I have checked safe mode, sorted out authentication, TRIED to set the base path correctly $baseUrl and $baseDir correctly however i still get the dreaded 104 error.

Rather than go around is circles is there a way I could display the current baseDir and baseUrl? For instance could I change FilesCountEmpty to one of the values some how? Then I could see where it is pointing.

I am open to any suggestions that may help the problem.
