I'm running IIS5.0 and I am trying to change the ASP.NET process account to my domain user account.
I have followed everything possible here.
When I browse the .svc file (this is a wcf service) I am getting this error:
Server Application Unavailable The
web application you are attempting to
access on this web server is currently
unavailable. Please hit the "Refresh"
button in your web browser to retry
your request.
Administrator Note: An error message
detailing the cause of this specific
request failure can be found in the
application event log of the web
server. Please review this log entry
to discover what caused this error to
occur.
Eventlog says:
aspnet_wp.exe could not be started.
The error code for the failure is
80070522. This error can be caused when the worker process account has
insufficient rights to read the .NET
Framework files. Please ensure that
the .NET Framework is correctly
installed and that the ACLs on the
installation directory allow access to
the configured account.
When I run the client, I get the following error:
The content type text/html;
charset=utf-8 of the response message
does not match the content type of the
binding (application/soap+xml;
charset=utf-8). If using a custom
encoder, be sure that the
IsContentTypeSupported method is
implemented properly. The first 872
bytes of the response were: '
From ASP.NET 2.0 onwards, the correct method to ensure that a user account has the correct rights to run as the worker process identity is to run this command:
aspnet_regiis -ga [account]
You need to run the aspnet_regiis command that matches the ASP.NET version you plan on running:
ASP.NET 2.0 -
%SYSTEMROOT%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -ga [account]
ASP.NET 4.0 -
%SYSTEMROOT%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe -ga [account]
If you put your Domain Account under IIS_WPG group, it should ideally work. If it doesn't work, there is a sure shot way of fixing it.
In IIS 6... step 1 is applicable... since you are on IIS 5, ignore step 1
Run it with Local System to begin with. If the applications runs, it means your IIS is configured well and you can proceed with the step 2.
Change the account to your domain account, and ensure that you have put the account in IIS_WPG as well. After that, run the tool called Process Monitor http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
Browse the application now. If you still get the error, switch to the Process Monitor and stop capture [menu option].
Search for Access denied and fix it. Link

I have this portal that contains applications that range from classic asp to asp.net 4x. The transition from WIA to Forms Authentication has been accomplished manually as this delicate monstrosity will not accept any other way. I have only one hurdle left and this is accessing the virtual directory that stores images and documents for one of the apps and which no longer have the physical path credentials supplied by window authentication.
There is no application to control this virtual directory and I need to transition from Application user(pass-through authentication) to Specific user in IIS 7.0
I have tried to Set Credentials for a generic user and my own admin account but get the Bad Data error 0x80090005 which generally tells me there is no encrypted credentials in applicationHost.config
I assume that the logon type is clear text and these keys should be in the applicationHost.config.
Any hints at how to create these keys would be appreciated.
I ran the command that Lex Li pointed me to:
appcmd set vdir /vdir.name:"ExampleSite/ExamplePathDir" /userName:"username" /password:"XXXXXXXX"
And received the Bad Data error:
ERROR ( hresult:80090005, message:Failed to commit configuration changes.
Bad Data.
I tried following links to generate server side SignalR trace on my production environment:
http://www.asp.net/signalr/overview/testing-and-debugging/enabling-signalr-tracing#server_text
https://github.com/SignalR/SignalR/wiki/Tracing-on-the-server-side
But, trace is not getting saved on disk as mentioned in the links(e.g., "default_traces.txt" or "transports.log.txt" respectively).
Please suggest where trace log file get saved?
I also checked following folders mentioned in first tutorial:
C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1
C:\inetpub\logs\FailedReqLogFiles\W3SVC1
But nothing related with SignalR found there. Any idea?
In my environment (VS2015 + IIS Express) log files are stored in web application folder (folder with web.config).
Be sure that your application pool has write permission on logs folder.
Also check SignalR error on client side. It can direct you to the cause of the problem.
For example, if client receives response 401 (Not authorized) (for example, on $.connection.hub.start()) it could mean that authentication middleware can not authenticate the client and responds with 401 without passing the request further through OWIN pipeline to SignalR. In this case SignalR does not emit any logs (it doesn't know about any request).
asp.net app (c#) worked fine in debug mode; published, getting 401.1 error (unauthorized).
When I put in the url, a dialog asks for username & password. Put it in 3x, error.
It's an internal app, using Windows authentication only.
IIS 7.5, using ApplicationPoolIdentity.
SQLServer Database
Specific Error Message from 401.1 page:

Error Code 0x8009030e
Requested URL http://smalltools.dbsvc.com:80/ Ap

Logon Method Not yet determined
Logon User Not yet determined
The app has a users table to determine the "role" of that user. I put a method in the master page that queries the table based on authenticated user, and returns the role. This, in turns, determines which buttons are visible on the navigation bar.
Looked in the security log, and found the following 3 entries:

Any idea what might be causing the inability to log in? Any clues what I can fix to make it work? I've researched all day and haven't found what might be the problem.
Any information is gratefully received.
Thanks

I've successfully solved the issue; I had to allow impersonation, and make an adjustment to the AD group.
The article in the following link helped a great deal:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bsz5788z.aspx
If this is an external site, then Windows authentication isn't really the way to go. But you can still do it, here's some links I found that should help.
Q&A about similar issue
Microsoft guide on how to implement
Typically Windows Authentication is used with internal systems because the users are logged on directly to the system and all their credentials are right there. However for external apps this isn't always the case, since your home Windows account and work windows account aren't the same, in addition you may not even be using windows from the external location.
Another gotcha I came across is the local loopback address security check when you setup a DEV instance and modify hosts file to use Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or simply when you browse IIS site with custom headers and the name does not match the server hostname. While this is necessary for production servers it is a problem when setting up Developer environments.
"This issue occurs when the Web site uses Integrated Authentication and has a name that is mapped to the local loopback address"
There are two main methods to resolve the issue:
Specify host names (Preferred method if NTLM authentication is desired) by creating/updating the Multi-String value:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\MSV1_0
Disable the loopback check (less-recommended method - do not use on production servers) by setting the following registry DWORD value to 1
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\DisableLoopbackCheck
Please refer to this HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed - Microsoft Support article for detailed overview and registry settings.
On II7 we host a WCF/asp.net based API. In order to allow users of a classic asp application to connect to the API we had to publish a version we refer to as "transport". This Transport version is written in asp.net too, it points to the same assembly , its just the security layer is different to allow classic asp to authenticate. Transport level security is used as opposed to message based security.
When using a browser to load the service reference i can loading the svcutil.exe ... WDSL page.
When using my test asp page to call a web method from this reference i get the following returned:
Finished calling Web Service.
Status = Internal Server Error
ResponseText = a:InvalidSecurityAn error occurred when verifying security for the message.
This suggests that the authentication is failing. When testing using asp.net or the application WCF storm to contact the normal API everything works well.
The API was recently migrated , it would appear something has not been setup correctly but i am at a loss to explain what.
I can browse to the svcutil.exe ... WDSL service reference, when selecting it via the browser i get the expect XML response.
The USER NAME and password utilised work when using the non-classic asp publicaiton of the API using the message based secuirty.
Would it be possible to post some troubleshooting tip that may help diagnoise the issue please specifically regarding transport level security fault finding and setup ?
Thank you
Scott
EDITED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING UPDATE:
Attempted to use the Default App Pool and a new App Pool but same problem persists.
My test page error: ResponseText = a:InvalidSecurityAn error occurred when verifying security for the message.
IIS LOG shows:
v3/transport/testclassicasptransportwcfservice.asp ( 200 0 0 ) (i.e iis 200)
/V3/Transport/DeviceService.svc/DeviceService (500 0 0) (i.e iis error 500)
note: virtual dir defined on TRANSPORT and V3. V3 works ok using .net as opposed to classic asp to authenticate.
EVENT LOG:
The Template Persistent Cache initialization failed for Application Pool 'transport' because of the following error: Could not create a Disk Cache Sub-directory for the Application Pool. The data may have additional error codes.
This reference appears to suggest a fix but many of the DIR paths and references in "appcmd" dont exist.
_http://theether.net/kb/100127
REF http://theether.net/kb/100127
load cmd prompt
CD to C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv
enter: appcmd list config -section:system.webServer/asp
the following path is displayed: c:\inetpub\conf\temp\ASP compiled templates
check path exists (it does)
Check if the NETWORK SERVICE has permissions to access "ASP compiled templates" If not from appcmd execute;
icacls "c:\inetpub\conf\temp\ASP Compiled Templates" /grant "NETWORK SERVICE:(OI)(CI)(M)"
should read "sucessfully processed 1 files"
restarted app pool.
THE "InvalidSecurityAn error occurred when verifying security for the message" problem still persists but the "COULD NOT CREATE A DISK CACHE SUB-DIRECORY .... " error from the eventlog is no longer occurring.
Sorry another update. The network service permission change DID NOT resolve the issue , changeing to the DEFAULT APP POOL solved the problem.
Got a lead at last. Examined:
ServiceSecurityAudit set in service behaviour. Ref http://intrepiddeveloper.wordpress.com/2008/08/07/security-event-logging-auditing/#
IIS logs (simply shows the non-specific error 500.)
Fault tracing enabled( also shows error 500).
Custom errors were off
Friendly IE messages were off
Asp client side and server side debugging on
ProcessMon running , no errors.
Web.config httpErrors errorMode="Detailed" /> +
ServiceSecurityAudit found me an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" so sounds like our app has a bug.
Follow up (17/08/11):
Service Security Audit documented here:
http://intrepiddeveloper.wordpress.com/2008/08/07/security-event-logging-auditing/
Was the key for us to resolve this issue. Uncovered the Object Reference Error which indicated out Business Objects and Data Access dlls were out of alignment. Using CLASSIC ASP to contact the WCF.NET API using TRANSPORT AUTHENTICATION there was abolutely no indication of this error until Service Security Audit was enavled on the behaviour.config file in the WCF deployment.
I have a Windows 2003 server running IIS 6 and have some scripts that do automated setup and creation of websites. They are not working on a new server I cam commissioning (they already work happily on 3 other W2K3 servers). The problem appear to boil down to WMI security on the IIS provider. The ASP code below represents the problem (although it is not the original code that causes the problem - this is a simplified demonstration of the problem).
Set wmiProvider = GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\MicrosoftIISv2")
If wmiProvider is Nothing Then
Response.Write "Failed to get WMI provider MicrosoftIISv2<br>"
End If
Response.Write "Querying for IISWebService...<br>"
Set colItems = wmiProvider.ExecQuery("Select * From IISWebServer",,0)
Response.Write "Error: " & Hex(Err.Number) & " (" & Err.Description & ")<br>"
If I run this in my browser, I get an access denied error reported after the ExecQuery call. I have set WMI access for the IUSR_ user from the Root branch all the way down. In fact, I can query for IP address information using the CIMV2 provider quite happily. If I put the IUSR user in the machine admins group it all works, but I don't really want to do that.
This must be a DCOM/WMI security problem, but I can't work out what else there is. Can anyone shed any light?
After reading G. Stoynev's comment asking if any events were logged in the Windows Logs, I checked the event logs on the server to which I'm attempting to access IIS remotely via WMI, and lo and behold I found an event with the following text:
Access to the root\WebAdministration namespace was denied because the namespace is marked with RequiresEncryption but the script or application attempted to connect to this namespace with an authentication level below Pkt_Privacy. Change the authentication level to Pkt_Privacy and run the script or application again.
See the code in this answer to the related SO question c# - "Access is denied" Exception with WMI.
Here's some example C# code that I added that seemed to resolve this issue for me:
ConnectionOptions options = new ConnectionOptions();
options.Authentication = AuthenticationLevel.PacketPrivacy;
ManagementScope managementScope = new ManagementScope(#"\\remote-server\root\WebAdministration", options);
// ...
If this is something that you intend to run as a tool for yourself or your admin (as opposed to the unwashed anonymous masses), here is a way I have used in the past (YMMV):
Set up a new directory in your website (e.g. /SiteCreate) and place your WMI scripts there
Configure a Windows user that has appropriate rights (probably admin in this case but you should use whatever is pertinent to your app)
Turn off the anonymous access to the directory you created in step 1 and then set the security to allow access only to the user you created in step 2 (turn on the authentication for that directory)
Now, when you navigate to that directory in your browser, you should get a login prompt. When you enter the username/password you created in step 2 your script will have the appropriate rights to perform your WMI requests.
Not a DCOM issue, more so a WMI security and encryption issue. Try changing the GetObject moniker to include impersonation and pktPrivacy, eg:
Set wmiProvider = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate;authenticationLevel=pktPrivacy}!\root\MicrosoftIISv2")
