I'm developing a site on a local server on my machine.
In this site when the admin logs in they are to be allowed upload a file to the server.
Currently I am logging into the site as admin and attempting to upload the file, however I can only upload when the permissions are set to 777 (NOT GOOD) and can't do the same with 775 or 755.
Is this just a case of adding the site's admin name to the same group as is admin on the server?
Sorry pretty new to this jazz, hence the ignorance!
Any help is greatly appreciated, cheers!
These are the current settings

Senario, Google Shared drive full of documents, shared with the IIS server, server has a virtual directory pointed to a folder that is available locally on the IIS server.
Using Dropbox, I can set Security options on the folder and the IIS server has access to the folder, works great. Company wants to move to Google Drive, when I attempt this, the Google drive folder has not Security Tab option.
I have scoured around for answers but everything is about the API, this has nothing to do with the API.
I also created an account on the IIS server, gave the account Administration privilege's and I get this error: "Specified user cannot access path (d:\Shared\GoogleDrive).
Also, I setup d:\Shared because I can apply Security settings to the folder and was hoping it would propagate down but it does not.
I finally figured out how to do this:
On the server itself backup/sync the folder desired. This allows you to manage the security on the folder, which is lost with other approaches.
From the google drive web interface, select computers, select the desired folder and using the more options from the menu, "Add shortcut to Drive".
You can then share it across the companies established share structure as a shortcut and sync files easily to the webserver.
In my case these are forms and pdf files but the webserver needs security access to the folder and using the base line Google shares did not work for me. This way did.
I am trying to store images in a FileTable that is accessible from a website.
According to my understanding, the FileTable needs "SELECT" granted to the account running ApplicationPool that the website runs in.
Example of what I have:
IIS (6.2)
Application pool user : Domain\Bob.
SQL Server login Domain\Bob
Database has Domain\Bob in db_owner group. I explicitly granted Domain\Bob select on the file table also.
DB.dbo.FileStream_FileTable is \\DEV\FileStream_FileTable\
IIS has SiteA
SiteA has virtual directory Image targeting \\127.0.0.1\DEV\FileStream_FileTable\
If I look at the IIS authentication, IIS errors saying insufficient permission to access web.config - but there is no web.config.
On the server, running Internet Explorer, referencing an image as \\127.0.0.1\DEV\FileStream_FileTable\<...>\Image1.jpg it resolves to the jpg.
On the server, running Internet Explorer, referencing an image as HTTP://127.0.0.1/SiteA/Image/Image1.jpg, IE errors (same error as the authentication error)...
Config Error
Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions
Config File
\?\UNC\127.0.0.1\dev\ItemImage\web.config
There IS no config file.
I have tried specifying the Windows user (Domain\Bob) context when accessing the virtual folder "Images" targetting \127.0.0.1\DEV\Filestream_FileTable
and also not specifying the windows credential...
I do not understand why the Image is visible using the UNC path in Internet Explorer (it must authenticate my context as having select on the filestream_filetable table) but not when using the context specifying a Windows context of a user who also has select on the table, in IIS.
NOTE: As an experiment, I modified the user, in IIS, used to access the share to Administrator. Then the IIS site resolved the image.
(Virtual directory targetting the \\servername\sql_instance_filestream_handle\directory\tablename)
The Windows User Domain\Bob has full rights on database - database owner.
There is another user's question, Access to SQL Server FileTable from IIS, that has servername in file share being a potential issue if the IIS and SQL server is on the same host, which I have taken into consideration.
I have added Domain\Bob to IIS_ISURS group...
What is Domain\Bob not a member of that grants access?
I can't very well make all my IIS shares accessing with Administrator accounts!
In some case, IIS will try to create web.config if the UNC path just return access denied error. If IIS failed to create web.config, It will also fail to access web.config with 500.19.
So please ensure your Application pool identity is set to a domain account who have read/write permission to access the folder.
Then please try to set Anonymous authentication->edit..->Application pool identity.
The Windows user Domain\Bob was not a login in the DEV sql instance.
Creating a sql login solved it. blush
Database level had the user, yes, but the SQL server didn't have a login.
facepalm
I tried to edit .htaccess file via sftp on filezila (ppk file and etc) and it says i dont have permissions to edit\upload.
I have wordpress bitnami on aws ec2.
Can you help me please?
Thanks.
You have to make sure that the ftp user does have permissions to edit the files. If not then you have to change the ownership of the files/folders to the ftp user. You may also have to add your FTP user to the group of your web server user.
I'm trying to simply run a local website which has sime basic HTML files using IIS.
Through the IIS Manager I have created a new website and have set the physical path to the directory with the HTML files.
However when I input the physical path I get the following warning:
The server is configured to use pass-through authentication with a
built-in account to access the specified physical path. However, IIS
Manager cannot verify whether the built-in account has access. Make
sure that the application pool identity has Read access to the
physical path. If this server is joined to a domain, and the
application pool identity is NetworkService or LocalSystem, verify
that \$ has Read access to the physical path.
Then test these settings again.
Now, when I navigate to the site through localhost I get the following Unauthorized error:
You do not have permission to view this directory or page because of
the access control list (ACL) configuration or encryption settings for
this resource on the Web server.
What's going on here? When I right click my folder I seem to have given access to everyone. I haven't made any specific IIS changes so what could be the issue here?
EDIT:
MAN I cannot believe this. My case is so simple (I just wanna display some HTML files on localhost) which should require ZERO configuration at all. Yet IIS fails to meet the demand.
EDIT: I think everyone should have permission to my folder. Here's a picture of the permissions screen for the folder:
Working with a set of server protocols is different than adding files to a share. In this case, you're going to want to open IIS and navigate to the website you added it as.
There, you'll see a variety of icons, some under the heading of ASP.NET, some under IIS. The first heading you'll see under IIS is Authentication. That's the one you want. If this is strictly internal/for learning, go ahead and enable Anonymous Authentication. It's not safe, but it'll get you in the right place to start googling around.
In my asp.net web application I am trying to retrieve images from a shared network folder. When I put this website live in IIS, I am getting an error that "Access to the path is denied" when I try to access the network folder. What is considered the user that IIS uses, and how would I grant permissions to the network folder?
Thank you.
The issue is because your application pool identity or the user that IIS is using to run the worker process does not have permissions on the network path.
You may want to grant this user permission on the network path. However, if you are using IIS AppPoolIdentity that is not possible as they are built-in account per machine. As is the same with any buit-in account.
I would advice you to use a network account and give that account appropriate permissions on both IIS and the network share.
You may have to add this user to the IUSR group.
