If you are using Windows Server 2003, the ASP.Net account name is IIS_WPG

In windows server 2008 it is IIS_IUSRS

You need to allow appropriate permission (Read/Write) to this user on your folder/file.

 i am using windows xp.

i have create the folder with code... how can i set permission programatically to write a file in that folder...

what will be the code to do this

Hi,

To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.

Hope it helps

 i am creating the directory at the runtime through code , and want to set the permission at the run time through code...

how to do this

Exactly as the error message instructed.  You have to do this on the directory you are creating the dynamic directory in, not the dynamic directory, and make sure that properties are inherited by subdirectories.

By the way, the ASP.NET account in ASPNET on XP.

Those are not the ASP.NET accounts, those are the IIS anonymous access accounts.  And they're not used in the case of the original poster.

Hi,

The error message indicates that ASP.NET process identity doesn't have enough permission on that folder.

The application that is deployed on IIS is running under "ASPNET" or "NETWORK SERVICE" basing on IIS version. These accounts have low privileges.

In this case, this folder is created at runtime, you can also set its ACL on folder. For example, you can add an ACL entry on the specified file for the specified account:

public static void AddFileSecurity(string fileName, string account,
            FileSystemRights rights, AccessControlType controlType)
        {

            // Get a FileSecurity object that represents the
            // current security settings.
            FileSecurity fSecurity = File.GetAccessControl(fileName);

            // Add the FileSystemAccessRule to the security settings.
            fSecurity.AddAccessRule(new FileSystemAccessRule(account,
                rights, controlType));

            // Set the new access settings.
            File.SetAccessControl(fileName, fSecurity);

        }
 
For more information, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.file.setaccesscontrol.aspx

Note: Your application needs high permission to set ACL.

You also can consider using Impersonation, which impersonates a specific user. So you can use impersonation to access local resources and perform operations by using the authenticated user's identity or by using a specific Windows identity.

For more information, see How To: Use Impersonation and Delegation in ASP.NET 2.0 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998351.aspx).

I look forward to receiving your test results.
