Access Denied when Open an image

Question

Access Denied when Open an image

Zahra Ashoori 0

I have an IIS application. Before I saved and retrieved my images with the local address on the same server with IIS like "F:\ScanImage\C0\1\img.jpg"( and saved the address in db) and whenever want to open it, It was Ok!

Now I changed my address in db for retrieve because of some reasons and I added a server IP address to address like "\192.168.47.60\f\ScanImage\I221000\221745\2418961\2418961-000001.jpg". This address opens the image correctly in File Explorer. But unfortunately In my app (that deployed on IIS) has the error "Access to the path '\192.168.47.60\f\ScanImage\I221000\221745\2418961\2418961-000001.jpg' is denied."

I granted permission to IUSR and IIS_USR for the images folder (read and write). But It Was Not Solve!

Please Help me. Thanks a lot

IUSR and IIS_IUSRS are local account/group specific to a machine, so they won't work for file paths that indicate remote access (of another machine).

If you do need to host web contents on another machine, you might change application pool identity to a domain service account and then tune the file permissions accordingly.

When you change the path to use a network share (e.g., \\192.168.47.60\f\ScanImage), even if the folder permissions on the remote machine are correct, you also need to ensure that network share permissions are properly configured. Check that the share permissions (in the Sharing tab) for \\192.168.47.60\f\ScanImage allow access to the IIS server. In addition to granting IUSR and IIS_USR access to the folder, check that they also have access to the share.
