ASP.NET/IIS7.5 Writing Log File Not Working (Permissions, UAC, Config.,?)?

I struggled with this one for a while. The ApplicationPoolIdentity is a member of the Users group and the Users group has limited access.

Well, after days of trying every IIS option, user and group accounts, file system permissions, Process Explorer, etc., etc., I think we got it working. We reset all our IIS app pool and web site settings to their default values and reset the folder/file system permissions on our Log folder to the default settings, then we turned off Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration on the server, and success! The log file is written as expected no matter what user is using the ASP.NET application and no matter if they're running it on the server itself or from a workstation.

Now, I don't know if turning off Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration on the server is the "correct" thing to do or if it violates any kind of best practices thing, but it seems to work for us. Anything to add? Thanks to all!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
