Hello

I have written functionality using C# and asp.net to download file
from asp.net page. I am doing this development on Window server 2008
and I am able to download the file. When I publish the application and
configure it with IP address and hit download button to download the
file, it produces following error (download functionality works fine
when I use localhost address):

Access to the path 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\windybaypower\Download
\MWISOReport.csv' 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:\Users\Public\Documents\windybaypower\Download
\MWISOReport.csv' 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 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.




Any Ideas how to fix this
