asked on

access denied when using Directory.Move in IIS

Hi There,

I'm getting an error when I try to move a folder on the same drive to a different destination. The IO exception seems to happen before the folder event gets moved at it seems is falling over at the source folder itself. The weird thing is i'm able to create folders, delete folders without any issue in the parent folder of the source folder.

What extra permissions do I need in order to be able to move this folder?

Sean - thanks in advance

Thanks for that. I tried your suggestion on the permissions and set the special permissions on the folder to create files / write data & create folders / append data.

that seemed to do the trick.

cheers.
