Hi, I am not an expert with IIS 7.0 but I have faced this issue sometime in IIS 6.0. Please check the following if that helps: 1. In IIS Manager (inetmgr.exe) expand the server >> select Application pools and this will list all available application pools.
2. Now if you have multiple application pools listed right click the application pools and select view applications and it will list the applications that depends on this pool. 3. Repeat this process until you find the Correct Pool that is used by your application
or FTP 4. Check what is the identity listed in default Application Pools view 5. Use effective Permissions on security tab of that folder or file to check permissions for that user, see if it has read access to the same or not? 6. Also at time I found that
read access for that object/folder/file is there but not to the folder up in the hierarchy, so you might need to check whether that account has read access to that folder/file from root to the exact location. Hope this will help. Rgds, Manoj Gupta
I solved this problem like this: 1. Select Virtual Directory 2. On the right frame select "Authentication" 3. "ASP.NET Impersonation" was DISABLED, just ENABLED this, and got it worked
"Hi, I am not an expert with IIS 7.0 ..." me too neither, but after two days using a sledgehammer against IIS V7.5.7600.16385 's "... Greek error message ..." & generally unintelligible / uninformative IBM- / MS- Speak --- I agree with the answer Manoj
Gupta gave. I'd word it differently:
1) Open IIS Manager (C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\InetMgr.exe)
2) Expand the IIS Instance under the 'Connections' column (for me, there was only one instance)
3) Choose the 'Application Pools' selection
4) Identify the application's "Pool" (for me, there were four Pools: ASP.NET v4.0 had zero applications; ASP.NET v4.0 Classic had one application; Classic.NET AppPool had zero applications; DefaultAppPool had ten applications) by selecting whichever
"Pool" looks promising ... I chose the one with ten apps in it
5) Confirm that your application is in that "Pool" by choosing the 'View Applications' selection in the 'Actions' column or by right-mouse click
6) Go back to step 4) and choose the 'Advanced Settings...' selection in the 'Actions' column or by right-mouse click
7) Under 'Process Model' in the resulting dialog change 'Load User Profile' to "True"
8) Read the unintelligible / uninformative IBM- / MS- Speak explanation box at the bottom of the dialog box for a laugh, "When ... true, IIS loads ... Set ... false If required to be IIS 6 behavior ..."
Of course, by setting the 'Load User Profile' to "True", I made that setting for all ten applications, but I don't really know why I'd want the "... IIS 6 behavior ..." Mayhap someone who IS an "expert" can inform us all why we'd like the "... IIS 6 behavior
..." - without the unintelligible / uninformative IBM- / MS- Speak explanation, please.
Still trying to related this to the origina question - authorization issue.
and AFAIK, in Win7 IIS 7+ the default value is true, so are you setting it to false or true?

Hello,
Where do I, "Make sure that the application pool identity has Read access to the physical path?"
I am new to IIS7 and any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

and AFAIK, in Win7 IIS 7+ the default value is true, so are you setting it to false or true?
This is one of the security changes in Win7 above, I remembered it was false in Vista and changed to true in sp1/2. In IIS 6 regardless of what identity you use, it never load the identity user profile and with this all share the same default environment variables such as %temp% etc. If set to true, these variables will be different.. you can google more.
