Cannot execute a program. (C# Web app error)

C

Chris

I posted this in the C# language group, then thought it
might be more appropriate in this group. I would not
cross-post except I want the answer so badly.

I built small C# Web and Web Service applications in a
training class last week. The applications worked in the
class, but when I tried to run them again over the
weekend, they both bombed. Instead of getting my Web
page, or the Web Service page, I get a page full of error
text (below).

I am hoping the anwser will be obvious to someone.

I've tried a few things to address the problem, including
adding an "impersonator" identity to machine.config, and
web.config, and trying to figure out how the
PublicKeyToken works. Neither has led to success.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Is your compiler functioning correctly? write a small test app and compile
it, see if that works first.

I believe that the compiler is functioning correctly. It
returns no errors when building either the Web apps or
the Windows Forms apps. However, the Windows Forms apps
still work on my system.

Thanks for your reply,
Chris

you have to add execution rights to the ASPNET account on the .exe you want
to execute from your application (right click the .exe [if using NTFS
filesystem] and select "Security" tab, add ASPNET user and give Execute
right to him on that file)

btw, since a web service or website is running as a service, make sure your
..exe doesn't try to popup dialogs etc. (can use a command-line/console app
instead and even override its output/error streams to send them to some log
of yours)

Right. It was a question of permissions. There wan't only
one exe file involve though, I had to give read, write,
and execute permissions to ASPNET throughout the
Microsoft.Net\Framework directory.

However, I still wonder how the application could have
worked and then stopped working. I know I did not change
these permissions before it started to fail.

Thanks,
Chris
