File Write Access Denied with ASP .NET on Domain Controler

[Seb]

Hi All,

I have a web page that tries to write in a xml file but I have an
Access Denied error on the xml file.

The page is working properly on the development computer but not on
test environment.

On the test environment the Web sServer is also PDC so there is no
ASPNET account on this computer.
- I have created a weak account with appropriate permissions
(following "ASP.NET does not work with the default ASPNET account on a
domain controller" article from Microsoft Support)
- I have changed the <ProcessModel> entry in the Machine.config to use
my account.
- I granted the new account Read - Write - Modify permissions on the
xml file.
- The web site is running in Anonymous mode (using IUSR_MACHINE
account).

But still my web page cannot modify the xml file.

Any help will be appreciated.

Sébastien.

If the website is being accessed by domain users, you could try
removing Anonymous in IIS and setting authentication to Windows
Integrated. Then add <authentication mode="Windows"> and <identity
impersonation="true"/> in the application's web.config file.

Well the web site is not accessed by domain users but by Anonymous
users s oI can't remove Anonymous access in IIS.

Any other suggestion ?

Thanks for your help.

I took a look at the article you referred to. The only thing I can
think of is that they forgot to include performing an IISRESET after
changing the machine.config file. But I'm assuming you did this?
