AC 7.0.3 Install Issue & Error Message

[combra]

Hi All,

I installed 7.0.3 yesterday from 7.0.0, uploaded the files, upgraded the database and everything seemed fine until...I went back into my GoDaddy console to change the read/write permissions back to what they were before the install and I got the error message below when trying to hit my website.

To clarify..before I upgraded the database, I made every folder read/write as the documentation recommends. When I switched back to the original permissions after the install was complete (originally read/write on ( [Root], App_Data, App_Themes, Assets, Webcharts )) I got the message below. I'm assuming it's a permission issue. Anybody have GoDaddy that got an error upon upgrading? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Brandon

Seems like a permission issue to me. I think it could be because when removing permissions you removed all permission for some required user as well. Make sure that application has proper access permission for example on bin it has read permissions, App_Data and charts folder has read/write permission.

It almost looks like you eliminated read access? I disabled read access to the bin folder and received the same error you report.

Thanks Mazhar and Logan for the responses.

Right now I can't get the website to display unless I put read/write permissions on every single folder, which is something I can't/won't do b/c of security reasons. With 7.0.0, all I needed was read/write on Root, App_Data, App Themes, Assets & Webcharts. Now with 7.0.3, that doesn't seem to be enough. I even tried putting read on the bin folder and that didn't do it. I'll keep trying.

The ASPNET user process needs read access to the whole website. The error above occurred because read access was missing for the bin folder.

Give READ access to everything, and add write access to the specific folders you mentioned.
