Hi,
I have a windows 2003 server running an asp.net c# web app that encrypts a file. It uses a third party dll for encryption and I have it built into my app. It runs fine in my Visual Studio 2005 environment but when I publish it and run it I get.
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Path/File access error

ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.

I have given access for aspnet and network service to the folder and file needing encryption. I have also registered the dll with the server and given access to microsoft.net/framework/v2.0./temporary asp,net.... folder
I have added the dll to the allowed file extensions in iis6.0. Still same error.
Can anyone help please?????
thankss...

You will need to add the IIS "Network Service" account to your file and grant the permission such as read and write to your account. Moreover, you can also grant the permission to "EveryOne" account.
