Setting Permissions for FSO

Reply Contact

I am running IIS7 on Vista. I am trying to use FileSystemObject to copy a file (i.e. create a new file with the same contents as an old one). I am running on localhost, in a subdirectory which contains both the file I want to copy and the .asp script for copying it.

I have gone to the subdirectory in Windows Explorer and set every User I can find to have Modify, Read&Execute, & Write permissions:

[myname]([computer]\[myname]
Users ([computer]\Users)
IIS_IUSRS ([computer]\IIS_IUsers)

Nonetheless, I still get "Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0046'

Permission denied"

Is there somewhere else I should be setting permissions? Should I do something with the IIS manager via either the UI or the command line?

Enable auditing in local security policy, reproduce the issue and check the security event log. Here is a blog showing how to enable auditing.

I enabled auditing, re-ran the script, and am looking at the Event Log and can't make heads nor tails of it.

What am I supposed to be looking for? There are a bunch of messages, including:

A handle to an object was requested.

Subject:
    Security ID:        [computer]\[name]
    Account Name:        name
    Account Domain:        computer
    Logon ID:        0x25490

    Object Server:        Security

    Object Name:        C:\Windows\System32\eventvwr.msc
    Handle ID:        0x0

    Process ID:        0x668

            SYNCHRONIZE

            WriteEA
            ReadAttributes
            WriteAttributes

    Access Mask:        0x120196
    Privileges Used for Access Check:    -
    Restricted SID Count:    0

---------

What does it mean? How do I find out?
