Good afternoon,
I'm having trouble installing dotnetnuke to my website. I have all the correct permissions in place and have setup everything according to the install manual. The stack trace points to a permissions issue but I have installed to other accounts on my hosting company's other servers safely. Can anyone please advise? Below is the stack trace. Please note that for security reasons I have replaced my install path with a dummy one up to that application's virtual directory folder dnn. The actual path is quite long. Thanks in advance.

<b> Description: </b>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.

<b> Exception Details: </b>System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\installpath\dnn\DotNetNuke.config' is denied.
<br><br>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.
<br><br>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.<br><br>
