I'm working to install The newest version of DNN on a new site, but encountered a problem, so so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, and got the same problem. When I go to the new site, I get the following message;


DotNetNuke Configuration Error

Could not find a part of the path 'D:\Hosting\6728148\html\cts\Config\Backup_20116281548\web_.config'.Access to the path 'D:\Hosting\6728148\html\cts\web.config' is denied.

Your DotNetNuke installation appears to have a security settings problem (most likely permissions). DotNetNuke has extensive file upload capabilities for content, modules, and skins. These features require custom security settings so that the application is able to create and remove files in your website.

Using Windows Explorer, browse to the root folder of the website ( C:\DotNetNuke by default ). Right-click the folder and select Sharing and Security from the popup menu ( please note that if you are using Windows XP you may need to Disable Simple File Sharing before these options are displayed ). Select the Security tab. Add the appropriate User Account and set the Permissions.

  • If using Windows 2000 - IIS5
    1. the [SERVER]\ASPNET User Account must have Read, Write, and Change Control of the virtual root of your website.
  • If using Windows 2003 - IIS6 or Vista/Windows 2008 - IIS7
    1. the NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE User Account must have Read, Write, and Change Control of the virtual root of your website.


Image showing the security settings for the root folder of the website must be set to Read, Write and Change Control for the ASPNET or NT AUTHORITY/NETWORK SERVICE accounts.

It was the permissions were not set correctly. I went in and reset them, but apparently, I either did not do them right or whatever. Sorry for the trouble.

You need to give "network service" full permissions and try again. it should work.

I am getting the same error but I have given full permission to the Network Service account. Any idea why I am getting this error? thank you...
