    Your computer is the server ?

    I do not know how to check permissions both the root of D: Drive and IIS process, and I need your help.

    A website should not have permission to read or write above the application root, so even if you have a D drive on your server, I'd expect this not to work.

    No, D: is my Local Drive and my computer is not a server. I have that project on my personal computer.

    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head runat="server">
    <title>Untitled Page</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <asp:FileUpload ID="FileUpload1" runat="server" />
    <asp:Button ID="Button6" runat="server" onclick="Button6_Click" Text="Button" />
    <br />
    <br />
    </form>
    </body>
    </html>

    And then I have an event to fileUpload1 Control: protected void Button6_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { FileUpload1.SaveAs("D:\\a.txt"); } I ran the project from virtual server of ASP.NET, it worked well. But when I published it to IIS server, it threw that error. Thanks,

        So your computer IS where IIS is running, and therefore is the server, right ?

        Published it how ? Is IIS running on your local machine ?

                If you answered my questions, I'd understand what your situation is, and I'd be able to give you a definitive answer. Is IIS running on your desktop, or on a remote computer ? Where did you publish your site to ?

                    Yes, IIS is running on my local machine. After creating a ASP.NET project in Visual Studio 2008 and writing code as I mentioned above, then I compiled the project, clicked right mouse on it and selected "Publish Website". Then I copy published files to a folder example (a subfolder of C:\Inetpub\wwwroot). Finally, I ran IE and fill in the address: http://localhost/example/default.aspx, clicked button_6, and got the error. Thanks,

                                I believe that the web server that's built in to visual studio doesn't enforce the sort of security that IIS does, simply because no-one is going to run a live website with it. Imagine if my site is on a web host that runs a lot of other sites. They are probably all going to be folders under the IIS root. So, if I were to write code that looks for files with a path starting in a .., I could try to read files that belong to another site. That's just one reason why IIS doesn't let you read or write above the root of the web application.

                                  I believe that the web server that's built in to visual studio doesn't enforce the sort of security that IIS does, simply because no-one is going to run a live website with it.

                                  Your answer is absolutely right. If I save the file to one of the folders under the project, it works with IIS. So I wonder if there is any way to write directly to another location like I did (Configure IIS for example) because when I searched information, some people say that there is a way by adding this line in web.config file between tag <system.web> and </system.web>:

                                  <identity impersonate="true"/>

                                  I tried, but it did not work. Thanks for your help,

                                    What abt this code..!

                                    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
                                    {

                                    }
                                    protected void Button6\_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
                                    {
                                        FileUpload1.SaveAs("D:\\\\a.txt");  <----
                                    }
                                    

                                    use the following code..!

                                    //Make sure a folder exixt folder
                                    FileUpload1.SaveAs(@"D:\SomeFolderName\" + FileUpload1.FileName);

                                    Your wasting the time..!:cool:

                                      That code placed in default.aspx.cs file is used to save a file whose path is got from FileUpload1 Control to D:\a.txt (Actually, it saves and change the original file's name into a.txt). If I modify it as following, it works:

                                      protected void Button6_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
                                      {
                                      FileUpload1.SaveAs(Server.Map("~")+@"\a.txt"); <----
                                      }

                                      But I do want it to do directly on D: Drive (or another Drive, not C: Drive) Thanks,

                                          Yes, I tried and it worked, but this approach is not exactly what I want. If the path is got from Server.Map("~"), I just only work with C: Drive because wwwroot folder of IIS is only placed on C:Drive. I want to work with D: Drive instead. Thanks,
