SIP 2 and ASP.Net

Question:

---

I have ASP.Net installed on the server. I ran the test file and it confirmed that everything is ok.

But when I use the ASP.Net component, the image is uploaded, but without resizing the image and no thumbnail is created. I tried the component that comes with SIP and it works fine.

I checked the security and permission of IUSRXXXX, and there is read, write, execute and modify permission.

ASP.Net runs with a different user then classic ASP. Classic ASP uses the user IUSR_xxx, for ASP.Net a new user called ASPNET (IIS_WPG in Windows 2003) has been created. You should give this user full access to the image folder.

When Your server is configured as a domain server then the ASPNET user is not available, you have to use the IWAM_xxx instead for ASP.Net 1.1 or later. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315158/ for more information.

In addition you can secure your folder from executing uploaded scripts by disabling Execute rights from within IIS.
