ASPX File Upload Issue

[Jason Myers]

Hi

I am trying to build an aspx application. The application needs to upload
images to a web folder. Uploading images works fine, but if the image being
uploaded exists, it needs to be deleted first. I use dotnet's IO objects do
do the work, but keep getting an access denied security issue. I have
checked the rights to all nessessry directories, and made sure that ASP.NET
has full controll. I have done the same for IWAM and IUSER, and even in
deperation, given EVERYONE full controll, but no luck.

Any ideas will be appreciated.

Thanks

The identity ASP.NET runs under isn't the same as it was in IIS (at least
by default). Under Windows 2000 and XP, the account is ASPNET and under Windows
2003 it's Network Service.

Now, given that you say you've given everyone on the machine perms to the
file, it makes me wonder if perhaps the file's locked by someone else and
this is your problem. Is it possible that's it's in use or you've forgotten
to close your reference to the file (in essence, leaking the file handle)?

What's the exact error you get back?
