Installation Configuration Architecture

Hello, I use apache and php 5.5 on my local windows machine to develop my laravel site, but when i try to upload to my client's hosting account (which is windows-IIs shared hosting account), i get this error below. Please what could be the problem and what's the solution.

Please note that I don't have write access to the root folder of the hosting account, it's only the httpdocs folder(which is located in the root folder along with some other folders) that i have write access to.

"Error in exception handler: The stream or file "C:\Inetpub\vhosts\systetech.com\httpdocs\app\storage/logs/laravel.log" could not be opened: failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\systetech.com\httpdocs\vendor\monolog\monolog\src\Monolog\Handler\StreamHandler.php:84"

Grant IIS the access rights to write to app/storage directory.
