create a shared folder does not work in inetpub

[jzdeng]

Hi, All

I use VS 2005 to create a web service. The web service is used to
create a sheared folder. It works fine we I run it from VS 2005. But,
when I move it to inetpub, it does not work (folder is created but is
not shared).

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks.

Hello jz****@gmail.com,

Did you get any kind of errors?
The most obvious reason could be the rights issue, you could have limited
righs to share folder

Thanks, Peter

The cod eI used to create shared folder is:

try
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(fileUploadPath);
ManagementClass managementClass = new
ManagementClass("Win32_Share");

ManagementBaseObject inParams =
managementClass.GetMethodParameters("Create");
ManagementBaseObject outParams;

inParams["Description"] = @"Directory for Image File
Upload";
inParams["Name"] = "temp";
inParams["Path"] = "c:\temp2";
inParams["Type"] = 0x0;
inParams["Access"] = null;

outParams = managementClass.InvokeMethod("Create",
inParams, null);

if((uint)(outParams.Properties["ReturnValue"].Value) != 0)
{
throw new Exception("Unable to shared directory.");
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
if (log.IsErrorEnabled)
{
log.Error(string.Format("Can not create shared {0}.
Error: {1}", shardFolderName, ex.Message));
}
}
I used it in a web service. When the web service run from VS 2005, the
shared folder c:\temp created. But, when I moved the web service to
inetpub, the c:\temp2 created but it was not a shared folder.

Thank.

Thanks, Michael

Could you please telling me how to set those rights programatically?

Hello jz****@gmail.com,

I guess u need try to play with rights in the folder property.
But you need to show your *working* code demonstrating you problem to get
help from us.
There are hardly any extrasensory persons :)

Could you please telling me how to set those rights programatically?

I had shown my code when I replied to Peter, -- message part 3

Any ideas?
