Access to the path 'C:\Domains\myDomainName.com\wwwroot\Images_Feautred_ProductCats\Contemporary-634484007998217642.png' 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.
Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Domains\myDomainName.com\wwwroot\Images_Feautred_ProductCats\Contemporary-634484007998217642.png' 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 <identity impersonate="true"/>, 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.

Im using FileZilla to upload my files and folders to the hosting server and I have followed these instructions http://www.squidoo.com/filezilla_tutorial#module12708802 but when I set the permission on the folder and click ok, and then go back again to the file attributes the permission is default zero again, So I dont know if thats the problem?
but otherwise can it be a setting from the hosting company side that they need to fix?
When I googled I came across a webpage saying "Doesn't matter if you use FileZilla FTP Server in a Windows Server, You can't change any file permission" is that correct??...my website is hosted on a windows server?? so is the problem from the hosting companies side?
or do I need something in my webconfig file?
I would seriously appreciate your help time and effort on this, I cant get this to work and Im lost
Thank you again
Regards
Jake
