Web Service deploy to IIS 6 works - Fails on IIS 7

Have a web service project on VS 2010 and Win 7 x64.

When I deploy to Windows 2008 II6 using File System deploy, it works with no problem.

When I try the same File System deploy to a Windows 2008 R2 server with IIS 7.5, it fails.

Error 500.19 Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions

Thanks for any ideas,

Tom

Thanks for the link. The error I am getting was Senario 8.

I tried to set the web service folder to group IIS_IUSR, but there was no such group.

I tried running Procmon, but I was unable to trap the web service process error. I tried filtering all the unwanted processes, but still no luck. I will try this again when I have more time.

Thanks

Tom

IIS_IUSRS is a machine a/c . you can set this from 'select users or group' window.

eg : [machine name ]\IIS_IUSRS

That helped a lot - thank you very much !

Now I am getting this error:

"Could not load assembly 'xxxlibrary' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format"

I see that DLL in the BIN folder.

Any ideas on this one?

Thanks

Found the answer on another post:

%windir%\system32\inetsrv\appcmd set config -section:applicationPools -applicationPoolDefaults.enable32BitAppOnWin64:true

It works !

Thanks for your generous and prompt help !!!
