[Sathish Elango via DotNetMonster.com]

Hi,

I am trying to develop a web application from VS.net 2003 for Sharepoint Search in my page.

topology = new TopologyManager();
portal = topology.PortalSites[new Uri("http://localhost:8080/personal/sathishe/")];
context = PortalApplication.GetContext(portal);

My Application is running on 81 port.With that if i rry to run it, it's throwing the error "An attempt was made to perform an unauthorized registry operation". if i given server name and database name in TopologyManager class. Again it throwing error
" Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE'"

I don't know how it can be solved.It is problem with iis virtual server port or some other configuration needed for it.Please help me to solve this problem.

Advance Thanks
Regards
Sathish

I had the same problem. I solved it by using the Sharepoint AppPool for my
website. I can't explain why it solved the problem, but i did work.

Good luck
Kaj
