I need the settings in web.config file of my asp.net application through which i can set permission for particular folder outside IIS. I need this functionality through settings in web.config.
Edited: I need to know that how can we apply impersonation in web.config file
I want to upload files in my Asp.net application on server but I have to grant it R/W access so that I or anyone can upload files in it. Is there any way that I write some code or configuration lines in Web.config which solve this permission problem?
View 1 RepliesI have deployed my website in ftp server.now i need to upload image to my database and place images in upload folder. while uploading images i'm getting the below error.
Access to the path 'd:hostingmystieproductImagesvaara.jpg' is denied.
Description:
An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'd:hostingmysiteproductImagesvaara.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 develop one application that create folder with special permission.
It works, but when I install the application on server I can't set any permission.
I think because it needs domain admin to set this permission... I've one account of one domain admin but how can I do to impersonate when the application set (try to set...) the permission ?
I have a production website that, once built in TFS is re-deployed and updated using xcopy. The entire site (excluding the root directory) it deleted then the new site copied in. This works well.
We use a 3rd party charting package that creates images at runtime and then renders a link to them. In order to do this it needs write permissions to a browsable folder.
Unfortunately, every time we update the website the write permissions of IIS_USRS is lost. Is there any way to retain this?
I set all the permissions correctly (I think), but I still can't upload file on the server. I am receiving error that access is denied when I am trying to upload the file.
I set the permissions to be able to write for Internet guest, network service and asp.net in both physical folder and in the iis.
i have a situation where i need to develop a web system where sys. admin can create a shared folder in server and set who can access the shared folder programmatically.
i've manage to find example to create a shared folder from here:[URL]
and i also manage to find example to add user and set folder Security setting from here:[URL]
My problem is how can i add user in the Sharing permission setting since it is a shared folder. Default sharing setting is set to 'everyone'. This mean anyone in my company can browse to the shared file unless i set everyone security setting. I want to remove "everyone" and add users based on the user that i've already add at Security setting.
I have created a folder in DotNetNuke programmatically on the root portal directory. I just want to assign permissions to it only one time, for example I want to make it read only for authenticated users. Any advice on how to accomplish this using C# or VB.NEt?
View 1 RepliesHow can I give my ASP.net website permission to see this folder on the server? C:PVSWin. The website is actually running on a virtual path D:WebSitesAdco.We are running IIS ver 6.The website uses a table from Pervasive to locate Vendors. The SqlDataSource works from the VS2008 IDE which is running on the server, but if a user logs into the website remotely they get this error:ERROR [IM003] Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 1114 (Pervasive ODBC Client Interface). This error generally indicates that the path to the DB components is not found, or is not available to the calling program, so I guess that the website does not have permissions.
View 5 RepliesI need to set folder permission programmaticcaly which is in my GoDaddy server. I have nearly 150 folders in my server so I cant change through server settings or IIS settings. I am using web application. My folder may go on increase in future.I have googled a lot of things.

I cant able to change the file permission but not a directory.
I must allow all the users to write or move a file to the folder which is in read only mode. That should be done programmatically and should be dynamic.
I have an asp.net application. There is a folder in the project that users upload images and files to that folder.
I want to restrict users, that each user sees only his files. How can I do this?
Because files are uploaded in folder, users may access them by browsing file urls.
I am creating one folder like "ManageFiles" dynamically. and that time i am storing some files inside that folder.If i want to download files from that folder for some user, I am getting error.
View 1 RepliesI have a very simple and stupid problem but I'm unable to find a solution. I'm trying to create folders and files locally through my code, however I get a permission exception when I try to write in a folder in my application. Normally I'd run this on a remote server, and ask the system administrator for writing permission on this specific folder, but I need to run this locally for the moment.
If I navigate to the file in windows explorer, and right click the folder and click on Properties, I can see that it's set as Read Only. However when I try to disable this tickbox and click on Accept, nothing happens. It ignores me, and next time I open the Properties of this same folder, it's still marked as Read Only.
I've googled this and found a solution which implies using MS-DOS and a command named "attrib". This is not working for me either. I also read about adding an ASP.NET account on my PC and granting the right permissions to this, but I'm not sure how to do is.
hw can i give write permission to folder for changing the image at runtime.i have tried so many times but still confused and free hand. can some one pls give me the solution in details.

I have a simple photo album. I have some catories in db and corresponding folders. For example, when user creates a category called "Asp Net" in db then a folder called "AspNet" is created. Then user can upload photo and all photos are displayed as thumbnail. No photo is saved in db, they are directly saved lets say AspNet folder. I just fetch filelist from intended folder and list them. However I want user to be able to update category name or delete it. To keep consistency, corresponding folder should be updated or deleted. But when I try it throws exception: Access to the path 'xxxxx" is denied.
View 1 RepliesI want to create a folder to store some web controls, so the site structure doesn't have a zillion files in the root.
Except that if I create an ordinary folder, that folder is also visible on the web site. MSDN said you cannot put it in App_Code, and it doesn't really make sense to put it in other special folder like App_Data or App_Theme.
We store backup archives in subfolders of a folder on one of the server's external USB drive. I would like to have an ASP.NET app read the contents of this folder so the manager can view the backup files to confirm backups are working and optionally delete these backup files when an old drive is reconnected so it can be used for the next weeks backups.
This backup folder is oubviously outside the server's webroot. Is there some way I can grant authority so the ASP.Net app can access this folder for this purpose? I would be using VS Web Express, so can't create any signed packages and such.

View 2 RepliesI have an ASP.NET website and I want to find the /bin/[Configuration] folder to use an external tool (an exe file). When I use reflection to get calling assemblies location it returns something similar to:
C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFramework\...Temporary ASP.NET Filesa1388a5e\...my.dll
Since each dll has its own directory under the temp ASP.NET Files this fails for me. How can I get the location of the compiled binary folder where the dll's and the .exe is (i.e. bin/) instead of asp.net's temporary cache?
