Re: Worker Process Write Permissions

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

It's not the worker process which needs write permissions.

It's the account the worker process is running as which needs
write permissions.

Run this short file I wrote :

identity.aspx
-----------------
<%@ Page Language="VB" %>
<%@ Import NameSpace = System.Security.Principal %>
<script runat="server">
Sub Page_Load()
Dim tmp As String = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.Name()
Label1.Text = tmp
End Sub
</script>
<html>
<head>
<title>WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.Name()</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<asp:Label ID="Label1" Runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
-------------

That will return the account the aspnet worker process is running under.
Then, give whatever write permissions you need to give to that account.
