Post subject: The server was unable to add the virtual root access denied - found a fix
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)

For a while I noticed I was getting errors in my eventlog from IIS about
virtual directors in my ASP.NET projects in Visual Studio like:
The server was unable to add the virtual root
'/TotalCare.Enterprise.ZeroClient.RequestFacility' for the directory
'C:\Visual Studio Projects\TotalCare.Enterprise' due to the following error:
Access is denied.

In case anyone else gets this error it seemed to be that my C:\Visual Studio
Projects folder did NOT have a required security setting... The Everyone
group on my local system has to manually be added with full permissions to
get rid of this error. Not sure why everyone wasn't there in the first
place. IIS showed red stop signs but still allowed me to continue
developing. I ran into problems when using NUnitASP to Unit Test my work, it
requires access to some files I guess.

Anyways, hope this helps someone.

You didn't find a real fix -- you just turned off security settings on your
server to get things working.

Having the proper remote user identity in the server's "VS Developers" group
should be sufficient. It's in the VS.Net documentation on how to make
Remote Server installs work. This is trivial to do if the remote server and
client are in the same domain, but if they are not in a domain, you'll need
to start synchronizing accounts.

I wouldn't post URLs to your server if I were you, since it's wide-open to
hacking...
