File permissions are set but do not seem to apply

4 New Member
Hello,

This problem is driving me crazy. I've got a local website set up in IIS to develop using asp and html, etc, on a folder called Projekt. I have given IUSR_mymachine read & write permissions on this entire folder.

I try to copy a file from one subfolder to another using FSO: permission denied.

I check the subfolders and they do not have the permissions for IUSR_mymachine that I set to the entire folder and all subfolders and files. So I add these permissions manually to the relevant subfolders but it still doesn't work. I try to upload a file using persits.aspuplo ad: it does not work. I check the permissions again and they seem to be set correctly.

I've even tried backing everything up, deleting the folder and setting it up again from scratch (it was sort of necessary after I had been messing with the permissions all afternoon...), but with pretty much the same result.

So what is going on here? Any ideas? Do I have to get a new computer or reinstall windows or something? Note that all of this worked fine two days ago and then suddenly stopped working, before I started messing with the permissions settings. I'm using Windows XP Pro by the way.

Ok, forget I asked. I figured it out and as it turned out it had nothing to do with the NTSF permissions.

I'm trying to call a batch file that I've built using the FileSystemObject and CreateObject("Wscript.Shell"), oShell.Run... in an asp script. Naturally, I can get the script to work from a command line but not from a browser. The page does not throw an error but the oShell.Run... portion of the script doesn't run. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Would anyone have an idea as to why the .asp has no ability to run this...

Hi, I'm quite frustrated in the fact that I can't even display a simple "Hello World" message on .Net. I've been through all of the groups and searched all over the place and haven't been able to figure out the solution to this problem. First off, the server is Windows Server 2003 - Web Edition (IIS 6) and I'm using .Net Framework v1.1.4322.

Hello, Thanks in advance for any tips. I am building a file management application which will allow file markup/sharing across the internet for all ms office, adobe pdf, photographs and other document formats. The docs will be marked up with add-in components that are not built yet. I have decided to start with building on a file permissions module.

How can I include one XML file into another XML file (on the client side, in Firefox)? I think XInclude is just what I need, but Firefox doesn't support it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201754 It seems I also can use an "external entity reference", but that depends on a DTD and I'm using XML Schema. Is it also possible with a Schema and how can I do it?

Hello, I'm writing a site where a handful of people will be able to edit the content using PHP scripts (FCKeditor). The content is stored as individual files in a directory. I'd like to validate the "editors" using PHP, cookies, etc. The question is what file permissions I need to allow for the content to be writable by my PHP script. Do I really need to give write permissions to the "other" group. Are all wikis really that vulnerable?...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
