Hello everyone,



I intalled win2k server, applied service pack 2, installed the .Net framework. 

There were no errors during setup of anything.  I then tried to navigate to my aspx

page and it said the service was unnavailable and to check the event log.  When i

checked that, this is what it said:



"aspnet_wp.exe could not be launched because the username and/or password supplied

in the processModel section of the config file are invalid. "



there is a user on my machine named "ASPNET" that was created by the setup and has

plenty of rights to the box.



i've uninstalled and reinstalled several times.  This all worked fine when it was

just a plain old server - but then i upgraded it to be an Active Directory Server

(domain controller) and everything went downhill.  I even deleted and recreated the

user.  I found the machine.config file and changed the user/password values in the

processModel block, but it didn't work.  Is there some other file that has that info

- i couldn't find it.



ALL suggestions welcomed and anxiously awaited.  



Thank you!



John

John,

	Basically, you need to set the processModel's username attribute

to "system".



Minh.

Thank you!!!!  



On an academic level, i have one other question though...  Why couldn't I just add

the ASPNET user account to the Administrators group and get the same affect?  If the

problem is the ASPNET user doesn't have admin rights - if i give that account admin

rights, shouldn't it work?  Or is there something else going on behind the scenes?



Thanks again,



john

John,



	I am not quite sure. I am not too excited about the .NET

installation. It took me forever from the moment I installed VS.NET

until I got my first ASP.NET page working and at this point I am still

struggling to get my Hello World pages displayed on a remote server.

Microsoft is so excited about XCOPY-deployment, but that just doesn't

apply to ASP.NET, in my humble opinion.

	Anyhow, I believe what you set in the machine.config tells you

where aspnet_wp.exe will run using system account (the same one that

Windows Services traditionally use) or using the low-privileged

machine-account. ASPNET user account is I believe the "anonymous IUSER"

using ASP.NET, not the worker process. By that's just my guess.



Minh.
