All,
If anyone has been following my trials over the last week see(Setting up a
Web Application on IIS 5.1 and ASP.Net Security Problems).
I'm having a problem running a Asp.Net Web Application. I've finally
narrowed the problem down to a security issue: The ASPNET (aspnet_wp)
account cannot connect to a Network resource instead of using a local path
ie: C:\Inetpub\wwwroot my development site resides on a Network Share
(\\{MyServerName}\wwwroot).
Every thing works fine is I connect to the site using a local path but I get
a Parser Error Message: Could not load type 'WebApplication1.Global'.
Source Error:
Line 1: <%@ Application Codebehind="Global.asax.vb"
Inherits="WebApplication1.Global" %>
If I try to load the page from a shared resource (\\Server\xxx)
I've tried adding this line to the web.config file imeditly under the
<authentication mode="Windows" /> tag - in the applications root directory
but I'm still unable to connect:
<identity impersonate="true" userName="{MyServerName}\{UserName}}"
password="{Password} " />
Policy editor
I have even tried creating a virtual directory to the folder even though the
Web Application is below the wwwroot.
FYI I've tried every possible combination of the
{MyServerName}\{UserName}"ie server\administrator / SERVER\administrator /
Server\Administrator etc.
Everything I've seen posted seams to suggest this should have worked. I'll
be very grateful for any help.
CES
