Security :: Creating Virtual Directory Through Code Showing An Error As Access Denied?
May 11, 2010
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 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 made a web form on a development website of mine (we'll call it dev.somewhere.com) and tried to publish it out to the web (we'll call it [URL]) in a subfolder. I named it default.aspx like I was supposed to and it worked flawlessly on the dev site. When I published it out the web, I wound up getting the following error when trying to get to the subfolder: [URL] Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed. Confused and flustered, I tried to go to [URL], but I wound up with some error that won't tell me the problem. Instead it tells me to change the my web.config to read <customErrors mode="Off"/>.
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 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?)
m new to .net framework 4 and iis 7.I created a webapplication in VS2010 with C#.I created the virtual directory for that web application in my IIS (IIS 7).when i tried to open the page by using virtual directory, it is displaying the following problem.Server Error in '/' Application.

I have a shared folder with directories on a remote server that I am trying to access with the method System.IO.Directory.GetDirectories(). This folder is based off of the credentials gotten from windows authentication. My problem is that everything works fun when I debug the Web Application in the built in IIS in VS, but when I set it up in IIS V5.1, it tells me that I have an invalid username and password. I am using Visual Studio 2005 on a Microsoft XP SP2 machine.
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:
im a little bit angry, because i realy don't know how i can access a virtual directory a created in the IIS.
For example i created virtual directory called "Images" in the IIS under my default website. The "Images" folder is connected with my physical harddrive "D:Bilder".
Now how do i access this folder from code behind? I really tried everything but i can't load a image from this virtual directory :
I am getting the error 80070005 access denied while trying to create a ms-word document dynamically through the c# code. For this I have to register COM Library to IIS. I want to know how to register a COM Library to IIS using regsvr32.
I have a website that requires the user to log in to it. Once the user is logged in they can select a report and criteria, click a button which will then create a CSV file on the server in CSVFiles folder and email to the logged in email address. My problem is I am getting a Access Denied when it trys to open a file for out put on the server.
As part of my new user setup, when they sign up for an account I create want to be able to create a directory under a Documents folder for them and then write a web.config file in that folder limiting access to it to the new account. However because they are still in the process they are an unauthenticated user at that point (Forms authentication), and I get an error that they don't have rights to that folder I want to create their sub-folder in. What do I need to set the folder security at to be able to create a folder and a file in that folder from code?
I am trying to deploy an asp.net MVC and a WCF service in a single website. The root site is the MVC application and i am going to run the WCF as a virtual directory of the site. However the service cant be accessed since the routing of the MVC would not relay the request to the service. It would say "Page not Found".
http://PC:9000 <- root of mvc application
I have a virtual directory for the wcf named "wcf",
http://pc:9000/wcf/service.svc <- should have accessed the service but routes of the mvc intervened and will display page not found.
how to make this work? How would i ignore the routing if the call is for the service?
Problem: In test environment using VS development server, want to allow all users (will change to specific roles when implemented) to add and delete files from the directory App_Data. I can successfully upload files, but when I attempt to delete a file I get the error....
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:Documents and Settings.......App_Data' is denied.
Server Error in '/' Application. Access to the path 'c:InetpubEnewsAttFilesemploy-e-header2.jpg' is denied. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'c:InetpubEnewsAttFilesemploy-e-header2.jpg' is denied.
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 totally stuck. I've tried many ways. I have a webapplication deployed on Win2003 with IIS 6.0. The website needs to access:
D:data on another PC.
I've sucessfully created a virtual directory (using local credentials to the data PC) in IIS and I am fully able to browse and view all the files. So now the webserver is: WebserverData.
In my behind code, I call filestream f = (Server.MapPath("WebserverDatasomedata.txt")));
and it tells me access to that location: \webserverdatasomedata.txt is DENIED. BUT I am able to browse on the Win2k3 IIS server.
I've set impersonation to true and used local username and password of the data PC. I've configured IIS to use the same username password.
I've created a virtual directory on a hard drive where I keep some jpg files, the problem is when I access a page that links to a jpg file it asks for a username and password, is there anyway to stop that from happening?
My client has s website hosted under IIS 6. This website has a subsite as a virtual directory that we need to ensure is only accessed via HTTPS.
We have enabled HTTPS access to the sub-site, but because the root site is configured to use HTTP, this is being inherited by the sub-site and you can access it unsecured. How can we prevent this?
The only potential option I've found so far is this implementation of IHttpModule. Is there nothing in the web.config I can set, as you can the security on a WCF binding?
I'm using IIS7.5 and Windows Authentication through an ISA server. I'm trying to migrate a classic ASP application to ASP.net.
We have an internal file server with our department folders on and I'm trying to provide web based access to these. Previously I created a UNC virtual directory to the \serverdepartments share, and because ASP classic ran in the context of the authenticated user they could only browse folders they had permission to.
What security settings should I now be using for the Application Pool and what settings should I use on the Virtual Directory credentials to ensure security? I'd like the ASP.net page to run in the context of the logged in user, and when the code tries to display a sub-folder they don't have access to it should 'bomb out' as before.
We have created a website and for the secured files created a virtual directory and in virtual directory properties we selected Application-user(pass through authentication).If any user directly browse the files link then the browser prompts a screen for virtual directory credentials.Here my requirement is i need to send the virtual directory credentials through the application.
