I installed Joomla 3 on the IIS windows server 2016. My Joomla files located in the inetpub/wwwroot folder.
When I upload an image from Joomla Media Manager, it uploads, but doesn't show.
Then when I go to wwwroot properties/security tab and change IIS_IUSRS permissions checkboxes and apply, It works on the file's permissions and the problem is solved and image shows.
But When I upload a new image, I have the same problem again and the image doesn't show again!
How can I do it? How can I set Joomla or Windows permissions?
I found the solution. I change the permissions on "upload_tmp_dir" (path in php.ini file) folder to match my web app folder permissions. I add IIS_IURS to this folder and set permissions.

I have a two webservers, on each webserver in the C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles I have created a symbolic link to the other servers log file folders, so essentially I can be logged in to one of the webservers and see the logs on both servers in one place. This works perfectly.
I am building a webpage to make the log files available via a webpage, the code simply goes to the C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles directory and lists the files in each sub folder, i.e. W3SVC1 (the local folder) and webserver2-w3svc1 (the remote log folder).
For the local folders it works fine, but I am getting the "access denied" error when trying to call Directory.GetFiles on the symlinkd folder. I suspect this is some sort of permissions error, but I tried giving the symlinkd folder full permissions to "everyone" but I still get the same error.
Is this something to do with the fact that when I created the symlinkd I had to enter the username and password of the webserver2, and these credentials cannot be accessed/used by IIS when trying to get access to the folder?
Is there anything I can do allow IIS to access the contents of this symlinkd folder?
I don't think you need to use a symlink, you can create a virtual directory mapping to that directory in IIS, just map it to the target path. In IIS, right click on the website and select Add Virtual Directory.
For more information, please refer to this official document.
After much experimentation, the only way to do this is as follows:
Create a new user on the computer.
Run the AppPool in IIS under this new users' identity as opposed to the default IUSR account.
Give the folder you are sharing permissions to this user AND 'share' this folder with the new user.
I've created a new web site in IIS on my machine for testing purposes. Beneath the root I have a folder called documents where I have a bunch of pdf's that should be downloadable. However, when I hit the URL localhost:54510/documents/file.pdf I get a 404 error (Chrome, IE and Firefox).
I've added IIS_IUSRS permissions for the specified folders and the service is running since I can access my ASPNET WebApi - localhost:54510/api/whatever-service-function.
I can't grasp my head around what causes this.
PDF is specified in MIME-types as Application/pdf.
Another thing is, when I add the documents folder as a virtual directory in the Default web site then it works to download it from localhost:80/documents/file.pdf.
I have also tried to add the documents folder as a virtual directory in my web-site and set my local user as the authenticator to see if it had anything to do with permission.
I'm running on IIS 10.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I cannot install Joomla Component or Wordpress Plugins and also I'm getting a message in Joomla CMS saying it cannot write to the server.
I called hosting company and they said that HTTP write and execute seems disabled.
I'm not sure what owner is created when file or folder is created via script inside CMS. I have seen owner 99 or root before when created via CMS but what effect does that have?
How do I go about changing access rights on which user to ensure this is working?
I'm using Cent OS Linux server.
Check the directory permissions.
To do that login to admin panel and select "Help > system info" from the top menu. Then select "Directory permissions" and check if all needed dirs are Writable
I have IIS installed on a server.
It is currently on the intranet as http://mySite which has a few basic html pages that load when you go to that URL
I've made a virtual directory called MyWebApp, which sits at http://mySite/MyWebApp
How do I go about making MyWebApp the default site when you type mySite into the browser?
I don't want it to come up as mySite/MyWebApp when you visit the page either.. I just want it to always say mySite.
Wouldn't it just be simpler to build your app in your root directory? However, you can change the root directory of your IIS6 website by:
To change the home directory of a Web site using IIS Manager
In IIS Manager, expand the local computer, expand the Web Sites directory, right-click the Web site you wish to change, and click Stop.
Use Windows Explorer, to rename the LocalDrive:\Inetpub\Wwwroot directory to the name of your choice. Alternatively, you can copy the entire \Wwwroot directory tree to a new location.
We've just moved our website to win2008 and IIS7 from win2000 with IS5 and I have some problems.
I have a folder that in it is an ASP page that upload a file to an upper folder, in the old IIS, I gave to the folder with the ASP page the permissions of the administrator and it's work fine, the files could be uploaded to an upper folders. BUT in the IIS7 I can't do it, I give to the folder with the asp code all the writing permission and it's not working. It's only work if I give a writing permissions to the upper targert folders. I don't wont to give to the target folders a full permission because those are the main web site folders.
So how can I do it? How can I give a folder a permission to write also to an upper folder that doesn's have this permmision?
Thanks
One possible reason is that you are attempting to access the parent with a MapPath and this is failing because Parent Paths haven't been enabled.
Since IIS6 the ability for code to access parent folders is by default blocked. To do this it is necessary to enable parent paths. In IIS7 parent paths can be enabled at Server, Site, Application or Folder level. In IIS manager click on the site, application or folder you want to enable this for, double click the ASP icon, in the Behavour section set 'Enable Parent Paths' to True.
