Hi,  I have a DNN 4.0.2 portal which can no longer upload files via the file manager.  If I log in and go to File Manager, I can browse for allowed file types, add them to the upload list, but when I click 'upload new file', the page refreshes but the file does not get uploaded.  I get no error or any other message - it gives the impression that it's worked.  The file does not appear physically in the filesystem either, and I'm talking about new files here (i.e. not trying to overwrite existing files).  I'm trying with .jpg and .pdf files, both of which are in the allowed list of file types.

I tried toggling the permissions on the portal folder (i.e the Windows permissions) and found that having taken away modify rights from ASPNET, then given them back, I was allowed to upload one file, then it stopped working again.  I gave aspnet full permissions and was allowed to upload one file again, then it stopped working once more.  Current state is that aspnet and network service have modify rights on the portal root folder but I cannot upload any files.  This used to work fine and nothing has been changed on the server to my knowledge. 

Any clues as to what is wrong here?  Are there any other permissions that should be set up (not that that would explain why it has suddenly stopped working!!).

Thanks in advance

Hi again,

Anyone got any clues about this?  I found that rebooting the server sorted the problem temporarily, but now, just a few weeks later, the same problem has recurred.  Regular rebooting is not a practical option so I need to get to the bottom of what is causing this issue.  Please respond if you have any suggestions that might help.  Should I be looking more to the IIS configuration than the DNN configuration perhaps?

Thanks.
