Access denied error while uploading a file to a web server.

Access denied error while uploading a file to a web server.

I am getting the following error while trying to upload a file to our web
server: Error: Access to the path "e:\web\...\DBC onnection.txt" is denied.
We are working with IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 Server running .NET Framework
1.1. To perform the upload we are using PostedFile.Save As(FileLocation ).
We have tried the following solutions:

1.. ASP.NET Machine Account has Modify, Read, Write and Execute
permissions from the top down.
2.. IUSER_Machine has Modify, Read, Write and Execute permissions from the
top down.
3.. Indexing Services is not running
4.. Temporarily granted administrative rights to ASP.NET Machine Account.
Thanks in advance.

Are you in the web hierarachy or somewhere out on the file system? If
outside, you may be using a transverse type of operation, which requires a
reduction in security in IIS 6. If not, check the security set up with the
..NET Configuration tool.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
