body: <p>I've given IUSR full control over the folder but when i upload files it gives me this error:
   Access to the path 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\vivaweb\usr_up_img\Desert.jpg' is denied.
  Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.</p>
  
  <pre><code>Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\inetpub\wwwroot\vivaweb\usr_up_img\Desert.jpg' is denied.
  
  ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via &lt;identity impersonate="true"/&gt;, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.
  
  To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.
  
  
  Source Error:
  
  The source code that generated this unhandled exception can only be shown when compiled in debug mode. To enable this, please follow one of the below steps, then request the URL:
  
  1. Add a "Debug=true" directive at the top of the file that generated the error. Example:
  
    &lt;%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="true" %&gt;
  
  or:
  
  2) Add the following section to the configuration file of your application:
  
  &lt;configuration&gt;
     &lt;system.web&gt;
         &lt;compilation debug="true"/&gt;
     &lt;/system.web&gt;
  &lt;/configuration&gt;
  
  Note that this second technique will cause all files within a given application to be compiled in debug mode. The first technique will cause only that particular file to be compiled in debug mode.
  
  Important: Running applications in debug mode does incur a memory/performance overhead. You should make sure that an application has debugging disabled before deploying into production scenario.
