I have tried all of the advice on the forums to get this to work without any joy. It seems to be a permissions issue - http 404 - File or directory not found.

It was working and after a reboot / somewhere stopped - either via localhost or url

I have tried a fresh istall into \inetpub\wwwroot\smsad and same errors. Tried DefaultApp Pool .Net 2

Main install in \inetpub\wwwroot\dotnetnuke. DNN App prool and .Net 4

Nothing seems to make a difference.

Have allocated permssions to IIS_User and NETWORK_SERVICE

Not a Domain machine - havn't figured out a way to grant permissions to DNN app pool (other than via NETWORK_SERVICE which DNN uses)

The default.aspx is there, has IIS_IUSRS and NETWORK_SERVICE RIGHTS ...

Tearing my hair out trying to get this right over the last few days ...

Any further ideas will be welcome Please>

TIA

Ok good to know. But my content is served from a file cluster, so when I try to edit the permissions and follow the instructions below it doesn't work. I can't assign the permissions it kicks back "An object named "iis apppool\defaultapppool" cannot be found. Because that profile is local to the web server and not the file cluster. Any ideas on this? Oh and I changed the App Pool's Identity back to ApplicationPoolIdentity and still not working.

Right click the website folder and select "Properties"

Select the "Security" tab

Click the "Edit" and then "Add" button

Click the "Locations" button and make sure you select your machine.

Enter "IIS AppPool\DefaultAppPool" in the "Enter the object names to select:" text box.

Click the "Check Names" button and click "OK".

You can now select the necessary permissions (typically read, write and modify permissions for the folder and all subfolders is the easiest permission to set)

TIA...

Kelvin,
