According to other member that having the same error as me, Wiley have asked to change the filestream to You need to modify the FileStream constructors in the ModuleConfig.vb or ModuleConfig.cs files as described below.

Users with VB.NET version of Code


    Dim fs As New FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)

and i have done accordingly but i still having the same error.

Thanks for you patient with me.

You have an NTFS permission error. Your ASPNET user account needs access to the folder indicated in your error message.
