From: JB on 5 Aug 2010 22:27 Hello community AFter the virtual directory is created in IIS I can click the url and run the application that was created using ASP.Net, C# and SQL Server without any problem including the code in the virtual directory and it's subdirectories. The virtual directory has some code in it that when the user clicks the url that code runs. However, there are folders beneath the virtual directory that also has code modules in it, but after the user clicks the url and clicks a button on the page that accesses the code in the subdirectories of the virtual directory and error stating: "Access Denied" (to the folder that is the virtual directory appears). Basically I am wondering why when the user clicks the url they can execute the code in the virtual directory but when they click a button on a page that executes code in the subdirectories of the virtual directory the Access Denied error pops up?

Access denied is based on a user account's permissions with the O/S and NTFS in this situation. If the account is not on the directory or it's on the directory and it doesn't have the proper permissions, then access will be denied for a user account. If not told otherwise by using 'impersonation', ASP.NET applications run under the context of the ASP.NET Worker Process account. And if the account is not on the directory or it's there and doesn't have the permissions, then it's going to be access denied for the account. Just because the ASP.NET Worker Process account may be on the virtual directory when it's initially created does it means that the account is on any subfolders you may have created manually in regards to NTFS. Account permissions for an account doesn't cascade to subfolders, unless you tell the O/S to do so using NTFS or you went to the subfolders manually and setup permissions for an account using NTFS.
