Topic awaiting preservation: ASP FSO permission denied (Page 1 of 1)

I'm trying to write to a text file on a network computer from the server using the File System Object, i have given Everyone, IUSR_servername, IWAM_servername, and even tried anonymous access full control, and it still gives me permission denied

Set PermissionChecker = Server.CreateObject("MSWC.PermissionChecker")
Response.Write "permission granted=" & PermissionChecker.HasAccess(listFile)
returns
permission granted=False

From the server, I can browse the directory and open and edit the files in notepad. No antivirus software is blocking access, any ideas?

It's an NT box, right?
It sounds like the user account you are using when you write in notepad has write permissions in that folder, but the user account that IIS uses doesn't.

Can't say more right now, but start there.

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.

Yeah, make sure the IUSR_servername has full control on that directory.

You also need to check the NTFS permissions on the computer you're trying to write to.
