IIS doesnt work with “location path code” on web.config

Question

Error trying to access into a folder on IIS:

the first users has access to everything, while the other cant.

<authentication mode="Windows">

</authentication>
<authorization>
   <allow users="Domain\AnotherDomain"/>
   <deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
<identity impersonate="true" /> 

This is the code im using to grant access to the users, because the IIS doesnt recognize the Active Directory "roles":

 <location path="~/UsuarioTI">
 <system.web>
    <authorization>
    <allow users ="Domain\MyDomain" />
    <deny users="*"/>
 </authorization>
</system.web>

this is the error when im trying to enter into the website,

401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.

Is there anything else that i need to install, besides enable windows authentication and disable the rest of them?

PD: whenever i try to access into the path im allowed to, it's asking for the user with 'AnotherDomain',because the other has no access.

PD2: How to recognize roles on IIS or throught localhost?

Answer 1

In IIS check the Pool Application Name you used for your website and then add on the folder permissions as follow : IIS AppPool\\poolName

poolName => is the name of you Pool Application !

That the virtual user created, you won't find it in the search, just add it as I mentioned above.
