Access Denied in IIS

Question

I have a web application deployed on IIS.

When my Web Application is trying to move file from A location to B location it is giving below error, "System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path"

Also, Access Denied is faced for folder "D:\FileMove\SomeFolder_1" But it is not faced for folder "D:\FileMove\SomeFolder_2"

Both folder are inside "FileMove" then why issue it is access denied for one folder

Answer 1

go to application pool check the app pool identity and set needed permissions to D:\FileMove\ for that user

Answer 2

How to set permission on the folder in IIS for .net Apps.

Answer 3

the issue is that you didn't set permissions for the user. set the permissions and it should run fine.

Answer 4

try to set the iis_iusrs and iusr full control permission to the D:\FileMove folder. and make sure the replace all child object permission checkbox is checked.

if you still face issues then try to use the process monitor to capture the permission for the D:\FileMove folder.
