Hi,

I need to read the files in the shared path by asp.net web application. it is possible for me to extract the files in the shared path while debugging the application wheread it is not possible to access the same shared path files after hosting it in IIS 6. Pls help.

Note: Shared path has permission to access files for everyone. So nothing needs to be changed from file server side. I am having a strong doubt on IIS part. Pls assist

Hi Muthulak.

¿Do you check if path and files are not read only atribute?. About Path.. Yo need change permission in IIS. And about files yo need insure that files is not read only

If the site is not under the inetpub/wwwroot/ directory you may need to give the APSNET user permissions to access the directory. If possible, compare the directory security settings between the inetpub/wwwroot/ directory and the directory your site is under. If your site is already under wwwroot this comment will be of little help.
