System:
Windows Server 2012 IIS8
AWSTATS Version: 7.1.1
awstats.domain.com.config is created with these settings:
When I go to:
http://awstats.domain.com/cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config=domain.com
The whole pages loads with no stats. On the top it says this:
Last Update: Never updated (See 'Build/Update' on awstats_setup.html page) Update Now (link)
I click the Update Now link which takes me to the next page where I am hit with this error:
Error: Couldn't open server log file
"C:\HostingSpaces\domain.com\logs\W3SVC8\u_ex130520.log" : Permission denied
There are a number of log files, one for each day in this folder W3SVC8.
What do I have to do to get this working?
The IIS ApplicationPool used by your awstats site needs to be granted read permission on the logs directory.
If the ApplicationPool has an explicit user identity, then give this user read permissions on the logs directory. If the ApplicationPool's identity is the default of ApplicationPoolIdentity then you can assign permissions directly to that ApplicationPool by entering IIS APPPOOL\NameOfAppPool when assigning security, for example IIS APPPOOL\DefaultAppPool.

How do I grant access to create file to w3wp.exe? I'm getting this error
I'm trying to publish a website. I looked at permissions of w3wp.exe but can't change them - everything is grayed out.
I looked at the config files everything is fine, made environment variables PATH's, started and restarted the service put in the right password, searched for someone with similar problems(not found).
Every time i go to the default location via browser I get the login screen but when i put in 'root' and the password I get an error message 'Login Failed'.
When I set athenticate=false in the conf file i can access the web manager.
Anybody know how to solve this or at least what might be wrong?
During the installation, the ArangoDB Installer will ask you the password for the administrator user.
Use root as user name with your password to gain access to the database.
Open a CMD-Window in your ArangoDB installation directory.
To re-gain access to the database, stop the ArangoDB database service using
sc stop ArangoDB
after the database was stopped, invoke
.\usr\bin\arango-secure-installation
which will ask you for a new password.
After that, start the service again using:
sc start ArangoDB
We have configured the visualsvn server in remote machine, while accessing the repository from the browser in our local machine, we are getting the below error in the internet explorer browser
'The XML page cannot be displayed'
Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and
then click the Refresh button, or try again later
In the server machine's Event viewer, we found the log 'get /svnindex.xsl forbidden'.
Please note that we are able to connect the repository in TortoiseSVN & other subversion command line tools.
Is any setup or permission is needed to browse the repository in the browser ?
The account that runs VisualSVN Server service (the account is "Network Service" by default) must have Read & Execute permissions to %VISUALSVN_SERVER%. It seems that in your case the account does not have Read access to %VISUALSVN_SERVER%htdocs or %VISUALSVN_SERVER%htdocs\svnindex.xsl. Check the permissions in order to solve the issue.
Read the article KB37: Permissions required to run VisualSVN Server for more information.
I'm trying to get IIS 8 on a brand new Server 2012 up and running to run a .net 4.5 app and I can't get it to work across drives
Error: 500.19
Module
IIS Web Core
Notification
Unknown
Handler
Not yet determined
Error Code
0x80070005
Config Error
Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions
Config File
\\?\D:\callsheet-test\web.config
The current site is just a single file index.html.
If I copy the folder to anywhere on c: like c:\callsheet-test\ or c:\inetpub\callsheet-test it works perfectly once I change the target location in IIS 8 (site > basic settings).
It doesn't matter if there is an web.config file as a complex mvc/webforms app gives the same error.
I have tried copying the file with permissions and even thought the permissions seem to match for all users. I am still getting this error.
I have deleted the partition and and recreated it as a mount point c:\mount and the same issue happens. Copy the files to c:\notamount and they work fine.
This server is running on a VMware server. Windows 2012 x64 Standard.
Based on further investigation of the problem (via link in my comment above), I've found a workaround via here: change the Group Policy value of "Audit Removable Storage" from "Not Configured" to "No Auditing" and reboot. Bizarre I know. This setting is in Windows Settings/Security Settings/Advanced Audit Policy Configuration/System Audit Policies/Object Access.
Even though we're using VMWare and not Hyper-V this workaround still worked for me. Hopefully Microsoft can provide a answer.
I also had the same error and the solution was similar. I had installed Sql Server 2012 on Windows Server 2012 and it was at this time that I noticed IIS worker processes running from the system C: drive were unable to access configuration files on the E: drive. The site could only be loaded when on the C: drive, despite all the necessary NTFS permissions being granted through IIS_IUSRS, IUSR, Users and/or even the specific AppPool itself. This became evident when IIS couldn't access the E: drive even when running the AppPool (.NET 4.5) using an admin account other than the ApplicationPoolIdentity account (IIS APPPOOL.NET v4.5 in this context - verified in procexp.exe). Installing Sql Server 2012 was throwing errors during installation and required enabling auditing for object access among other settings.
Solution:
Run -> secpol.msc
Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Audit Policy
Change "Audit Object Access" policy to "No Auditing"
Hopefully, this background helps ease someone's headache. :-)
I have a WCF web service that is deployed at IIS.
Part of the web service is to validate the inputs using EntLib 4.1
For ex, the string values can be of specific length and so on.
In case of the validation being failed a fault exception is raised and the service is supposed to write the message in log file.
How do I go about creating the log file to a location that can be configured from a config file.
Basically how do we write messages from IIS (since the service is hosted at IIS, I am assuming that that will be the source!)
To write to the log file, make sure that the identity running your web application has write access to the log directory.
IIS7: You can find the identity in the IIS management console. Select the application pool that your web application is using. Click on Advanced Settings. In the properties window, look for the identity field. It may say Network Service. This is the account that needs write permission to your log output folder.
IIS6: Same as IIS7 except right click on the app pool and select properties. The properties window of IIS6 will have an Identity tab.
If you already have a log file in this directory, try deleting it and letting the framework create it.
Hope this helps.
Why not just write the warnings/error to the Event Log? It's easier to maintain than arbitrary log files and you can query them from other machines.

This website helped me with the same problem on IIS 7.5, where you have new Application Pool Identities: http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/624/application-pool-identities/
Using the command line ICACLS test.txt /grant "IIS AppPool\<AppPoolName>":F on the log file or log folder worked for me.
Trying to set the permissions via the file/folder properties dialog failed, the AppPool identity was not accepted there.
