Security :: Access Denied Error When Trying To Write To A File From Web Service?
Mar 12, 2010
I am getting "Access Denied" error when I am trying to write a file on my hard drive (C:/.... xmls/test.xml) from a webservice which is also on my local machine.
The folder structure is like this
AdminApp (Web Folder on C drive)
- WebServices Folder
- TestService.asmx
-Xmls Folder
- Test.xml
I tried following settings in IIS in my efforts to resolve the issue:
- Set anonynmous access checked with my account name and password under "Account Used for anonymous access" alongwith integrated windows authentication checked. I am a admin on my machine.
- Disabled anonymous access with only integrated windows authentication checked. I have identity impersonate = true set in my web.config.
I'm moving applications from IIS6 to IIS7.5 (win 7 an win server 2008 r2), when 2 applications (with identity impersonate) try to get a file with response.writefile only from a UNC path i'll get "access denied". In IIS6 and Visual Studio Developer Web Server, same code works. I can save file with FilePath.SaveAs and get name and length with FileInfo, but not download. After 2 days of nightmares I have tried to change
Response.WriteFile(filePath)
to
Response.BinaryWrite(File.ReadAllBytes(filePath))
and now work. My question is: can I have a microsoft developer to sacrificate for my avenge?)

ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user. 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.
I'm currently working on an ASP.NET app that I inherited. There are a variety of file operations it has to perform and I'm getting and Access denied error when I attempt to create a directory.I've confirmed that the correct account is being impersonated and authenticated by checking WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent I've also confirmed that the account has full control for the parent folder of the directory I'm trying to create.The only think I can think of is that there might be an issue using a domain account rather than a local account. I'm not really 100% solid on how permissions work in this situation.Any ideas on why the account wouldn't have access? Is there any other code I could try to get more details about what is going on?
I have asp.net page running under MOSS2007 and there is Access Denied error at signing (signedXml.ComputeSignature()). The code works as normal .net web application but it does not work under MOSS.
I have an issue while downloading files from a folder.In my application,i have to upload files to a particular folder inside my solution. I dint face any issues while uploading the files to the folder. But while downloading the file from the folder i get an error Access to path 'C:FolderPath' is denied. I am using windows 7.
Below is the coding for download
protected void radgrdDocumnet_ItemCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e) { if (e.Item is GridDataItem) { GridDataItem item = e.Item as GridDataItem; string id = userProcess.Encrypt(item.OwnerTableView.DataKeyValues[item.ItemIndex]["ID"].ToString()); if (e.CommandName == "download") { System.IO.FileStream fs = null
Using MS article http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998317.aspx, I created a web site to develop a forms authentication solution for our web app. The server is Win 2003 w/IIS 6 and the app is VB.NET. The web.config was updated for forms authentication and settingsappear below:
I am creating virtual directory from my C# code when i execute this code working every finely.
But problem is when i publish this code and access through iis it is showing an error as access denied .
i tried to give permissions to the folder in c:\inetpub\wwwrootfoldername Network service and users provided permissions of full control But still showing an error of Access Denied(mine is iis 5.0 in xp)
I'm not able to open the file when I click on the link on page in MVC. I get the following message. I've added the impersonation in the code. I'm able to delete and save the file.

i developed a simple web application. A label and a button. On click of Button, the label will display Hello World.
When I deploy this web application on my web server and access the URL, I get this error message.
The current identity (NT Authority/Network Service) does not have write access to C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727Temporary ASP.NET Files
I have tried the following -
Navigate to C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727 and typed the following command -
aspnet_regiis -ga "NT AuthorityNetwork Service"
After that also, it did not work.
We checked the permissions of the folder Temporary ASP.NET Files and for the Network Service user, we checked the Security Permissions and it has all the permissions as required.
I have created an asp.net web application on windows server 2008. I have created a website in IIS 7 with an application pool. The application pool has the identity "NETWORKSERVICE". I have a web reference in my application with a certificate.
When I create a new web application and add the code below and add the web reference, and run the web application from the solution (and not from a website in IIS), the web service works fine. I think the local administrator has permissions and the network service account not.
public static PartsService MyCompanyPartsService { get { if (_partsService != null) return _partsService; _partsService = new PartsService(); _partsService.PreAuthenticate = true;
I have created a web service SampleWS.asmx [uses authentication mode="Windows" and identity mpersonate="true"]. Works fine on my dev using VS and Personal web server. Now to move this to QA I have created a Virtual directory called intg pointed it to a physical path on the server Now I have copied the (actually tried publish to this server folder and simple copy and paste) .asmx , dll folder and .cs to this folder on server First I received firbidden access for which I have set execute permissions on IIS to scripts and executables.This fixed the initial issue. The Web service extensions has allow for both 1.1 and 2.0 on IIS Now I receive the following error ..
Access to the path
C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv1.1.4322Temporary ASP.NET Filesintgaf936b4453b023c7"
First, I felt I had a clear understanding of how the Network Service account work. It is the default account ASP.Net runs under and has very limited access. I have verified in the Application Pool that ASP.Net is running under the Network Service Account. I have a UNC file share that is located on another server, let us say "\myservermyfiles". I have logged on to "MyServer" and right-clicked on the shared folder "myfiles" and just for the sake of testing, went to the Shared Tab->Permissions and added the Network Service account and gave it "change and read" access. I then went to the Security Tab, added the Network Service account and gave it all permissions. For some reason, I am still getting an "access denied" exception. I know impersonation is an option at some point, but I would really like to know why my ASP.Net application cannot copy a file to this share just for my own personal understanding given the fact that I gave the Network Service account the proper access. Like always, I will continue to research.
I trying dotnetzip on localhost everything works fine.but on a real dotnet hosting it raises error :
Access to the path 'C:inetpubvhostslahblah.comsubdomains aporhttpdocsDotNetZip-luqevaxu.tmp' is denied. using (ZipFile zip = new ZipFile(Server.MapPath("~")+"/a.zip")) { zip.AddFile(Server.MapPath("~")+"/deneme.txt"); zip.Save(); }
I have implemented role based security in my asp.net 2.0 vb.net application using windows authentication and the windowstokenroleprovider and limiting access to certain pages using the location tag to specific active directory groups.
The issue is that when a user tries to access a page they are not authorized to view it brings up a login prompt and when it does not pass it takes them to the default page that tells them they are not authorized to view the page. I am wondering if there is a way to throw up a custom page that tells them they are not athorized to view the page that I can incorporate into the site itself with the header and so forth? if this page could come up in lieu of the sign in box popping up as well.
I am getting this message is one of my subdomains. This was running fine before.
The web application you are attempting to access on this web server is currently unavailable. Please hit the "Refresh" button in your web browser to retry your request.
Administrator Note: An error message detailing the cause of this specific request failure can be found in the application event log of the web server. Please review this log entry to discover what caused this error to occur.
When I tried to look in the event log I found this error.
Failed to execute request because the App-Domain could not be created. Error: 0x80070005 Access is denied.
The site is running on the asp.net 2.0. The parent site is running fine including other subdomains. It is only this subdomain that is having problem and I think I have all the necessary permissions.
Is there anything missing in IIS 6.0 that prevents me from (Insert into table) using MS-Access?
Explain: The application works fine under Visual Studio 2008 IDE the insert into table works fine with no error, Also I tested with hosting provider and works fine with no problem. but now I have published the same exact app in a dedicated server windows 2003 with IIS 6.0 .NET framework 2.0 with latest service pack I gave IIS_WPG write/modify access to the folder where MS-Access database is located and database but at the time of insert an error pop-up. I need to install in the Server or settings in the IIS to recognize my MS-Access db is it some office runtime that I am missing. (BTW I am using OLEDB connection string in my C# )
Using System.Data.OleDb;
I can retrieve data off of it with no problem but when I try to insert is when it fails I thought the problem was Access Rights but I do not think is the case.
We have created a new cname for our subdomain website. The new website is working properly with cname. We do have .net application inside the webiste which is not working with cname. For eg,1. http://servername/_folder1/app/mypage.aspx (Accessing .net application (App) website without cname)2. http://NewDomian.xxxx/app/mypage.aspx (Accessing .net application (App) website with cname)The first case is working perfectly, but when I access the second url, I got the following error.Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately. Parser Error Message: It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.Source Error:

I've put my application on IIS with a App Pool I newly created. The App pool setting is integrated and networkservice.
My application reads a local file from a local machine. When it tries to do that, I receive an exception saying that "Access to the path c:..xxx is denied". Isn't the app using the credentials logged into the local machine?!
doesn't "integrated and networkservices" mean.. use the credentials logged in to windows?
I am getting below error while generating report using crystal report:
Error in File C:WindowsTEMP epEnquiry {095737EB-07B4-437D-9E86-85780B7417B0}.rpt: Access to report file denied. Another program may be using it.
For this i did google and found some solutions but still its not working: what i tried: -given full access to aspnet and network services on my root directory and reports folder and then restarted iis.
I'm a lowly DBA.I am supporting a web app that allows users to upload images (among other documents). The system is deployed and working and not having issues with the uploads. However, I upgraded my development box recently and since then I have been encountering an "access denied" issue. Initially I thought it was a simple security issue but now it seems it is more complex.
