This command runs tru DOS window but fails via IIS 6 win 2003     Set objWShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")     Set objCmd = objWShell.Exec("c:\imail\adduser.exe -h test.com -u testuser -p sdfg")     strPResult = objCmd.StdOut.Readall()     set objCmd = nothing: Set objWShell = nothing  I have IIS_WPG, IUSR_, IWAM, System, Users with full access and propogation to the folder and just for testing even the website is running under Administrator. I started to itch and loose hair : ). It was working fine on windows 2000 IIS5 Any ideas? Thanks

Reply Contact Enable auditing of 'object failures' in the local security policy, see if anything is in Security event log.  Another couple of tools to use are Regmon and Filemon from Sysinternals.  Auditing, Regmon, Filemon can narrow down if its a obvious permissions issue.  If not, it's something in your local security policy preventing it.

Reply Contact Regmon helped me pinpoint the case, it was the "Network Service" account that needed permissions to the registry. Thank you so much for the guidance, nothing could have made me happier today!

  Re: 'Permission denied' in Windows 2003 & IIS6.0... Reply Contact I have kind of the same problem using HTMLDOC to create PDF files:   First I have a streamwriter to C:\invoices_pdf\factuur.html (this works perfect) then i get permission denied on: Set oWSH= Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") oWSH.Run """C:\Program Files\HTMLDOC\htmldoc.exe"" --webpage -f C:\invoices_pdf\factuur.pdf C:\invoices_pdf\factuur.html", 0, True set oWSH = nothing  I already tried following permissions:  - IUSR account has full control over htmldoc.exe & invoices_pdf - Network service full control even: EVERYONE added full control   also tried: - adding Everyone to administrators group... (lol!)   didn't work either.. so I'm kinda desperate at the moment :)

  Re: 'Permission denied' in Windows 2003 & IIS6.0... Reply Contact Did you run regmon / filemon / process monitor like I mentioned in the previous post?  Also enable your object failures local security setting, between the object failures and regmon / filemon.  You'll have an idea if there is a permissions issue.  Steve Schofield Windows Server MVP - IIS http://weblogs.asp.net/steveschofield http://www.IISLogs.com Log archival solution Install, Configure, Forget

  Re: 'Permission denied' in Windows 2003 & IIS6.0... Reply Contact I've got the same problem. My script worked for years, but when I installed a couple of security updates on the 3rd of december 2008, problems started occuring. When I restart IIS (using IISRESET), it works fine. But an or so later, it fails with a Permission Denied. I've shrunk my script to this, and it still fails: <%     set WshShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")     cmd = "c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c dir"     r = WshShell.Run(cmd, 0, true) %> cmd.exe has Full Control for IIS_WPG, IUSR_ and IWAM_. (And Users and Everybody :-)), but the problem still occurs. At some point, I thought it was related to KB957097 (NTLM Reflection Protection) because it was a known issue with the update, but disabling it and restarting the server didn't change it. The problem isn't limited to WshShell.Run, but also an API used for a 3rd party product. Any help would really be nice. :-) Thank you in advance. Christian
