Getting access denied to modify anything on C Drive

Hello,
I have a weird problem where I'm using IIS7.5 to host a website. The issue is, even though I am pointing to the correct folder of the files, when you view them from the web browser, you will get
401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.
If I try to modify the files or view the html files in notepad, it tells me "Access is denied". Im the only admin on the server. Some other issues are not being able to zip a folder or move to another drive. They all give me access denied. I've
tried everything and don't know what else to do. I've tried several registry edits I've found on the web and in the forums too.
One funky thing I should mention is, if I view the properties to a file, it is set as read only and when I uncheck it and click ok and return to the file properties again, read only is still selected.
I hope someone here can shed some light on this issue I'm having. Thanks in advance.

Hi Kevin,
First make sure that the folders and files have necessary NTFS permission for the user.

How to remove eventreceiver when handling AppUninstalling in a RER without getting access denied

I am trying to remove an eventreceiver from the clientContext.Web.EventReceivers
by using DeleteObject() but I am getting Access Denied exception
In my appmanifest.xml I already granted full control to the app
Within my AppEventReceiver I have:
if (properties.EventType == SPRemoteEventType.AppUninstalling)
SharePointContextToken contextToken = TokenHelper.ReadAndValidateContextToken(properties.ContextToken, OperationContext.Current.IncomingMessageHeaders.To.Host);
string appOnlyAccessToken = TokenHelper.GetAppOnlyAccessToken(contextToken.TargetPrincipalName, properties.AppEventProperties.HostWebFullUrl.Authority, contextToken.Realm).AccessToken;
//string appOnlyAccessToken = TokenHelper.GetAppOnlyAccessToken(SHAREPOINT_PID, properties.AppEventProperties.HostWebFullUrl.Authority, TokenHelper.GetRealmFromTargetUrl(properties.AppEventProperties.HostWebFullUrl)).AccessToken;
using (ClientContext clientContext = TokenHelper.GetClientContextWithAccessToken(properties.AppEventProperties.HostWebFullUrl.ToString(), appOnlyAccessToken))
try
clientContext.Load(clientContext.Web);
clientContext.Load(clientContext.Web.EventReceivers);
clientContext.Load(clientContext.Web, web => web.Title);
clientContext.Load(clientContext.Web, web => web.CurrentUser.LoginName);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
//IEnumerable<EventReceiverDefinition> receivers = clientContext.LoadQuery(clientContext.Web.EventReceivers.Where(e => e.ReceiverName == "GroupUserAddedRER"));
//clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
EventReceiverDefinitionCollection receivers = clientContext.Web.EventReceivers;
List<EventReceiverDefinition> receiversToDelete = new List<EventReceiverDefinition>();
foreach (var rec in receivers)
if (rec.ReceiverName == "GroupUserAddedRER")
receiversToDelete.Add(rec);
foreach (var recToDelete in receiversToDelete)
recToDelete.DeleteObject();
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
catch (Exception)
result.Status = SPRemoteEventServiceStatus.CancelNoError;

Hi,
Check you manifest.xml
You must have the property AllowAppOnlyPolicy
to "true" like below, to use the "GetAppOnlyAccessToken" method
<AppPermissionRequestsAllowAppOnlyPolicy="true">
Rights of your app...
</AppPermissionRequests>

Getting access denied error while importing file using input type="file"

Hi All,
I am using struts application wherein I need to import file for some purpose.I have used input type="file" for the same which goes like:
<input type="file" id="uploadFile" name="uploadFile" size="50">
I have the import button on which I have used onClick event to call javascript function submitValues() used to validate all the fields from the page which goes like:
<input type="button" name="select" value="Import" class="CSSButton" onClick="javascript:submitValues();">
The JS function then in turn submits the form and calls the action.The problem is sometimes even when the correct path is specified for the file to be imported results in access denied error.This error comes sometimes and other times it works fine.But when this error comes,I need to relogin into the application and then it works fine.I am using IE7 for this.
Any idea why I am getting access denied error while importing? Has it got something to do with IE7 version or with the input type="file" which is being used here?
Thanks for any help if anyone can provide.

Hi Friends,
I have gone through scores of examples and i am failing to understand the right thing to be done to copy a file from one directory to another. Here is my class...So let's see... C:\GetMe1 is a directory on your machine, right? And this is what you are doing with that directory:
public static void copyFiles(File src, File dest) throws IOException
// dest is a 'File' object but represents the C:\GetMe1 directory, right?
fout = new FileOutputStream (dest);If it's a directory, where in your code are you appending the source file name to the path, before trying to open an output stream on it? You're not.
BTW, this is awful:
catch (IOException e)
IOException wrapper = new IOException("copyFiles: Unable to copy file: " +
src.getAbsolutePath() + "to" + dest.getAbsolutePath()+".");
wrapper.initCause(e);
wrapper.setStackTrace(e.getStackTrace());
throw wrapper;
}1) You're hiding the original IOException and replacing it with your own? For what good purpose?
2) Even if you had a good reason to do that, this would be simpler and better:
throw new IOException("your custom message goes here", e);
rather than explicitly invokign initCause and setStackTrace. Yuck!

Get "Access Denied" when click open a PDF file

Hi Friends,
Get "Access Denied" when click open a PDF file linked from SharePoint 2013 page.
What are the route causes any one is remove the permissions are stopped the inheritance permissions of the library.
Can anyone face the same issue please help me.
Thanks,

Hi,
If you are able to open the same document earlier,then anonymous access enabled on your doc library then.
If you are facing this problem in first time,then you do not have required permission (may be custom permission level has been set ) on it.

Why do my Visitors users get Access Denied in my New Forms - Mobile Devices Only

The issue I have is that I have a SP2013 Site with a group Visitors.
the default Site Permissions have been set to Read.
I then created a SharePoint List with a People Picker.
I broke the Security inheritance and gave the Visitors group Contribute Permissions
In Browser mode, they can access the site, open all links and even add content to list.
When I do the same actions on a mobile device, All the visitors get Access Denied when clicking on the Add Content Link.
The Link I make available is "https://myweb/sites/site/Lists/mylist/NewForm.aspx"
I have found some suggestions about unplublished content, but this does not explain why the user can perform the required actions on a desktop, but not on a mobile device using the same link

Hi,
By mobile do you happen to mean iPhone? There has been quite a few issues with SharePoint 2013 and iOS authentication. You might want to refer to the following exchange.

Your best bet may be to start over, and use Setup Assistant instead. See How do I set up a new Mac from my old Mac or its backups?, and note the green "Second chance" box.

Oracle Apex export application getting access denied when trying to download

DB: 11.2.0.3
Apex: 4.2.2.00.11
Apex Listener: 2.0.3.221.10.13
WLS: 10.3.6.0
Chrome: Version 29.0.1547.76 m
and IE 10.0.9200.16660
I'm the admin of the workspace that has one application. Made a change to the application and went to export the application so I can source control it.
Followed the Export wizard while in the application, hit the Export/Import button and clicked Export. Changed the File Format to "Database", Export Supporting Object Definitions to "No" and left everything else as default. Clicked the Export Application button and get "Application 108 exported" success maessage. Navigate to the Manage Export Repository and I see the exported application labled "f108.sql and I click on it and I get "Access Denied".
Whats the trick? What am I missing?
If I change File Format to "Unix" or "DOS" the file automatically downloads.
Thx,
Russ

Hmm I wonder if it has something to do with:
bug #16760897
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/apex-422-known-issues-1940409.html
The bug description mentions ORA-06502, but get_file has a when others exception handler that simply returns "Access Denied".
What do you folks think?

Why signed and get "access denied (java.io.FilePermission hello.txt read)"?

I am learning the Java tools and policy to create some local browser application for personal use. So I signed a jar file with jarsigner, keytool and policytool and still trying to figure out why my browser application cannot read a simple local text file.
My question are
1. Why use java policy tool (policytool.exe)? If I signed a .jar with keytool and jarsigner, do I really need java policytool to write a policy?
2. What is the maximum validity days? 365? or more? Do I need to sign again when validity expire?
3. I don't want any of my local browser application gets to internet but only work with local files (read, write, or execute). how do I do that?
4. how to use java security policy to grant access to the jar applet? where do I place and import the policy file so the hosting web browser and the applet can work?
My java applet is a simple class that read a text line from a local file in the same folder, and pass the result to a calling web browser Javascript.
Currently the result in the web page is the error message below, even though the jar is signed correctly.
access denied (java.io.FilePermission hello.txt read)
Someone please help and enlight the newbie!

.. So I signed a jar file with jarsigner, keytool and policytool and still trying to figure out why my browser application cannot read a simple local text file.
My question are
1. Why use java policy tool (policytool.exe)? If I signed a .jar with keytool and jarsigner, do I really need java policytool to write a policy?No. In fact, don't stuff around with policy files - they are a path to madness.
2. What is the maximum validity days? 365? or more?Keytool accepts an argument for the number of days to remain valid. I do not believe it has an upper limit, but it might be best to experiment with it and find out for yourself. Please report your findings back.
(2a) Do I need to sign again when validity expire?No, but the end user gets a huge warning that the certificate has expired. Further, if it was a certificate that was certified by a CA, the 'always trust' check box which used to default to true, would now default to false.
3. I don't want any of my local browser application gets to internet but only work with local files (read, write, or execute). how do I do that?I am not sure I understand, but if you only offer a JFileChooser for the applet to access resources, that should restrict it to resources off the local file-system. Of course, that would not restrict the end user from downloading something from the internet to their local disks, then accessing it using the applet.
4. how to use java security policy to grant access to the jar applet? where do I place and import the policy file so the hosting web browser and the applet can work?The only place it will work is in the JRE directories of the end-user's machine. Even if you find a way to install your local policy file, do not go messing with the end-user's policy files.
My java applet is a simple class that read a text line from a local file in the same folder,.. In the 'same folder' as what? (1)
..and pass the result to a calling web browser Javascript. That might be the problem. AFAIR, using JS with trusted applets causes the security to be tightened. Perhaps it could be fixed by calling System.setSecurityManager(null) on applet init(), but I have also seen references to using [AccessController.doPrivileged()|http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/security/AccessController.html] to wrap the problematic code. I am hazy on the details of how/if that works.
Currently the result in the web page is the error message below, even though the jar is signed correctly.
access denied (java.io.FilePermission hello.txt read)
1) If the answer to my question is what I suspect, there may be better ways to access the resource that are usable even in a sand-boxed app.

Windows 2008 R2 intermittently getting access denied when logging in

Hi,
I recently built 2 new Virtual Machines. They both run on Hyper-V (version 6.2x).
One is Windows 2008 R2 standard and the other Windows 2008 R2 Datacenter. These are both remote desktop servers.
These are both connected to a domain.
The domain controller is linux/samba based, this will mimic the Windows NT4 style domain controller environment.
Within each Virtual Machine I have a remote desktop users group, that is a staff group.
Intermittently users get an access denied error when logging on. This only happens when logging on as domain users.
If this happened all the time, I might think the machine needed to be removed and re-added to the domain but as it's intermittent, I don't see the trust relationship as the problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your post in Windows Server Forum.
Before providing you some information, I would like to get some more information to resolve your issue.
- Have you notice any specific error when trying to remote login?
- Did you check GPO setting option “Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services”
As group policy and the user group are interrelated with each other. There are 2 types of user rights.
(1) Logon rights (2) Privileges
These two plays an important part in allowing an RDP session to the server. Also need to check in GPO Setting for more option.
a. Allow log on through Remote Desktop Services : Users\Group must be added for Remote Session
b. Deny log on through Remote Desktop Services : Users\Group must not be added for Remote Session
For checking the setting in GPO follow below path:
- Start > Run >gpedit.msc
- Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment
For more information, refer beneath article.
“Allow Logon through Terminal Services (Remote Desktop Services)” group policy and “Remote Desktop Users” group.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askperf/archive/2011/09/09/allow-logon-through-terminal-services-group-policy-and-remote-desktop-users-group.aspx
Hope This Helps!

Getting Access Denied error when try to deploy metro app from VS 11 Beta

Hi,
When I try to deploy metro style app from VS11 Beta, i'm getting following error.
Error : DEP0740 : Access denied. This may be because the application state is locked. A possible cause is "RuntimeBroker.exe" retaining a lock on the storage data for your application. The workarounds are (1) Wait for the "RuntimeBroker.exe" to quit. This
may take up to 6 minutes. (2) Kill the "RuntimeBroker.exe" process and redeploy. (Note that option (2) may cause loss of data.)
Error 2 Opening file from location: F:\...bin\Debug\AppX\AppxManifest.xml failed with error code: 0x80070005. Access is denied.
Any idea, why?
