Access to the path Error Message
I am receiveing the bellow error message when I try to upload a file in my ASP.NET C# application. This is a pretty common problem, and usually can be solved by adding the ASPNET user account to the file folder permissions and granting it write access. I've done that, infact I've also tried adding the EVERYONE account and also using impersination using my ADMINISTRATOR account. I ported my project over to another computer and it had the same problem. This is weird - has anyone seen this problem before?
Thanks.

Server Error in '/POSShop01' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Access to the path "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\POSShop01\UserImages" is denied.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\POSShop01\UserImages" is denied.
ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.
To grant ASP.NET write access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.
