Access to the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\App_Themes\Glass_Whit

Post by Haak » Wed Apr 30, 2008 7:44 pm

I am working with the looks of our site and went to upload and change the default logo to ours and this is the message I received

Access to the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\App_Themes\Glass_WhiteLilly\images\logo.gif' is denied.

Not sure whats up with this but if anyone has a suggestion I would be grateful. I have run in to this problem a couple of times when logging into the admin site on my dev computer. I restart the machine and all is fine for a while then it happens again. Although this time it won't stop even when I restart the computer.

I have checked permissions according to the setup file correctly so... help?

Thank you,
Hawk

Did you have the file open in a graphics program?
Also, try IISReset

It's definitely an OS permissions issue.

What version of Windows are you running on your web server?

Windows 2003 service pack 2 Standard Edition. I did have the graphics open at some point but I tried it with all IDE's off after reboot and still same error. I am going to go in with a fresh brain this morning and check all permissions to see if I can figure this out.

Well, I went in to the graphic that was having the problem and added modify to the permissions for both asp.net and network services. This seemed to fix the problem in this case.

Is Modify a permission I should have for the entire root folder for both asp.net and network services?

Thanks

Yes. It depends on the operating system as to how permissions are inherited when new files or changed files are uploaded.

The easiest way is to fix it is to right-click the parent folder (in this case .../Glass_White), choose Permissions, choose Advanced and select the "Reset Permissions on Child Objects..." option.

Then Win2K3 will take the parent folder permissions and re-apply them to all folders and files beneath it in one swoop.
