re:
also tried changing machine to system in the machine.config file.
In addition changed permissions to the ASPNET user but it did not seem to help.
Having done that is probably what's causing the error.
Changing the permissions for the ASPNET user does zilch
if you changed the ASP.NET process identity to SYSTEM.
ASP.NET 1.1 is configured to use the ASPNET account
*when the configured process account is the "machine" account*.
( But not when the configured process accoount is the SYSTEM account... )
You are probably being denied access to a critical resource
which the account which ASP.NET runs as needs.
Please review this article :
"How To: Create a Custom Account to Run ASP.NET 1.1"
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...secnetht01.asp
....and follow the instructions in it.
Basically, you'll need to change the process account back to "machine",
and make sure that the ASPNET account has the indicated permissions
to the folders listed in "Table 1. Required NTFS permissions".

Hi thanks for the response. When I try to create a new web application (I
think when it tries to create the virtual directory) or if I try to run an
existing web application through the VS.net IDE from both debug and non debug
modes. I also tried re-installing framework 1.1, also tried changing
machine to system in the machine.config file. In addition changed
permissions to the ASPNET user but it did not seem to help.

Not when "creating" a web application. Do you mean when "running" a web
application?
