Hello folks,
I am experiencing a rather strange problem. I have written a service
that attempts to open a file on a network share via a FileStream object.
When I try to open the file from my service, I get the "Access is
denied" error. However, if I try to open the file from a GUI
application, I can open the file without problem. I've tried using the
FileIOPermissio ns object to get around the error with no luck. Obviously
I am missing something very fundamental, the file is accessible to
'Everyone'. Does anybody know what I am doing wrong? Thank you,
Jason

Hi Jason
Maybe it's rather a Windows than a .NET issue. The service may not have
enough privilegies to access the folder while your UI application (which
runs under the context of your user account) does...

You are probably running into CAS issues. Fileshare is considered
LocalIntranet_Z one even if it is shared from your local computer. You
probably need to go to the .Net configuration tool and give that share a
special permissions. The tool is under aministrative tools, .Net
Framewwork 1.1 Configuration. Go to runtime security policy, Machine,
All_code and Add a child code group. Give it a name then on the choose a
condition tab select URL. In the bottom text field put the path to the
file share. I.E. file://F:/*. On the next tab select the permission set.
Leave it at FullTrust if you want all permissions. Now you should get no
errors accessing the file share.
Good Luck

"Access denied" errors are due to Windows permissions denials, not CAS
permission denials, so altering the CAS policy will not resolve this
problem.

Manipulating FileIOPermissio ns will not help resolve this exception since
"access denied" errors are caused by Windows permissions restrictions and
have nothing to do with .NET code access security.
A couple of questions:
1. If you launch the service using the same user credentials with which you
can open the file via the GUI application, can the service open the file?
2. Are you sure that "everyone" access is truly applied, or does this
reflect just the permissions on the share, as opposed to the Windows ACL on
the actual file? Access to a file via a share will be determined by the
intersection, not the union, of the permissions on the share and the file
itself.

Running Windows 2003 Server on an intranet.
A web is configured with an anonymous access account that is a domain account that has been granted the desired access to a file on another server in the domain.
An asp page in the web attempts to open (or any other access) the remote file and fails.
Auditing is enabled on the remote system and for the file in question but no access denied records are being
recorded.

I'm trying to use the File.Copy method to copy a file from a client to

How do I pull from the client? Do I need a different class and/or method?

If this isn't the write forum for this question, I appologize, but
it's kind of a mix of ASP.NET and IIS. Anyway, my question is this.
If an ASP.NET site is writing to a file, does the file get written as
soon as the request is processed or once the IIS Worker Process queues
it up? For example:
Users 1, 2, and 3 all hit the page that called the file write at the
same time. Am I left to deal with a file access violation...
