Web Image Viewer won't!
-
I am (still!) writing a Web Image viewer for my compnay that allows our Customers to view the images, that we have scanned for them, to be viewed over the Web. I have used ASP, Javascript and an ISAPI Extension dll to do all the database and Image processing work, and am using IIS while developing. However, all works well when the image Folders are on the actual Web Server machine but, as soon as we move them onto another machine, and map a drive to the folder e.g. X:\Image_Folder, it won't work. I have trapped the message with "GetLastError()" and get "Access is denied". The folder on the Image Server is shared and "full" Permissions are granted to "Everyone". I can view the images OK using IE from the Web Server machine. Any ideas? It seems such a trivial problem but, having got so far with no major problems, it would be a shame for this to mess everything up. Many thanks for any help. code dope. Life's like a sh*t sandwich - the more bread you got, the less sh*t you gotta eat!

Do all the images also have Everyone / Full permissions?

What account is your webserver running under ? If its LocalSystem then it only has access to local resources. Remember your ISAPI DLL will run in the context of the web server.
