Good evening all, I'm having a bit of trouble updating the events module on a site I'm working on. When I try to run the update link from the module admin page, I get the following error. It looks like a permissions problem, but as far as I can tell the perms are ok. I list them after the error trace.

Error: Edit Module Definitions is currently unavailable.
DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Access to the path 'E:\Websites\MennoniteUSA.org\web.config' is denied. ---> System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'E:\Websites\MennoniteUSA.org\web.config' is denied. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) at System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy) at System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize) at System.IO.File.OpenFile(String path, FileAccess access, SafeFileHandle& handle) at System.IO.File.SetLastWriteTimeUtc(String path, DateTime lastWriteTimeUtc) at System.IO.File.SetLastWriteTime(String path, DateTime lastWriteTime) at DotNetNuke.Common.Utilities.Config.Touch() at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.ModuleDefinitions.EditModuleDefinition.UpdateModuleInterfaces(String BusinessControllerClass) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.ModuleDefinitions.EditModuleDefinition.cmdUpdate_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

 Perms as follows:

 

  • Administrators
  • CREATOR OWNER
  • NETWORK SERVICE
  • SYSTEM
  • Users

     

    I believe this looks ok, but if I'm missing something, I'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

    (BTW - Sorry to post a basic question. I tried to query the forums for this question. Detailed queries timed out and making the query general enough not to time out ended up returning dozens (hundreds?) of unrelated posts.)

    You need to make sure Network Service has full permissions to your web.config. I think there are other areas on your site that need this as well, but I normally give full permission all the way through my sites, so can't say which particular folders. Go into Explorer outside of DNN, right click/properties/security. This can usually be done on your hosting providers site control panel as well. If you don't have access you will need to ask your service provider to do it.

    Cheers
    Roger
