Failed to access IIS metabase

I'm creating a web app using VS 2005. When I run the app I receive the error,

"Failed to access IIS metabase"

How do I correct this problem?

Thanks for you help.

Dave,

Did you change the credentials to allow you to access the IIS metabase?
By default, ASP applications run under the ASPNET user, which is a local
user account, and does not have access to the IIS metabase.

Hope this helps.

After doing that you need to open up iss go to the web site in question,
select properties, then the "Operators" tab. Then add the aspnet user. That
fixed my problem.

I put that account back in, but what do I...

I have a problem with cache headers which I cannot track down. We are running IIS6 on Windows Server 2003 and ASP.NET 2.0. Our application has an installer which sets up our caching options in the metabase - specifically it sets HttpExpires="D, 0" and CacheControlCustom="no-cache" on the directory containing our web forms. In IIS manager this shows up correctly (saying expires immediately). For some specific web forms (aspx) within...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
