Hi,

I am using meta draw tool in my C# (.NET) code for designing the kitchen and bathroom interiors. It seems to be working fine for IIS-6 and Windows - XP/2003 server.

But for the upper version of IIS (IIS - 7/7.5) and windows server (Windows - 7/2008 R2/SBS 2011); I am facing a problem, unable to save the meta draw images.

I have changed some IIS setting (WebDAV Authoring Rules, Authentication, and Authorization Rules) as per internet suggestion and give full control permission to everyone, IUSR, IIS_IUSRS, IIS_WPG, Network Service, Administrator, Authenticated Users, etc. on the required folder; but not getting success. Please help me ASAP.

Thanks/Regards

Akhilesh Kumar Singh

Not sure if this is relevant, but I remembered seeing this in my RSS feed a while back. Did a quick Google search and came up with this:

I think you need to have elevated privileges to write to certain areas of the drive under Vista/7/8 (and I'm assuming on Server 2008 and above). This might not be 100% what you're looking for, but might at least get you started toward what you need.
