Access is denied. [modified]

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,

Have You tried the above code..! Make sure a folder is created..!

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,

Server.Map is the root folder of your website..!

Yes, I tried the code above and that is the approach I want to do. Unfortunately, it threw an error like the question of this topic.
