Get Started
Asp.net Upload File ( FileUpload1.SaveAs) "Access to the path denied"
Have a page that was working in IIS 6. Upgraded from IIS 6 to IIS 8.5 and now this doesn't work. Using .Net V4.0
Uploading file from web #2 to a different web #1. The document goes into a file folder. Each one has it's own appPool. (web1, web2)
I understand now the identity is in the application pool. So I set the appPool on both webs (1 & 2) to NetworkService. (Thru IIS -> Application Pools -> Right Click -> Advanced Settings -> Identity)
Then on the file folder where the docs are stored gave NetworkService all permissions. Still have the error. So then on the file folder I gave permissions to everyone for everything - still have "Access denied"
Any ideas?
