windows server 2008, how to make folder writable for my asp.net mvc3 app?


I have an asp.net mvc3 application. it uploads image and resizes it. my upload folder, i need to make it writable. I try to do it from filezilla, set them to 777, it wont work.

I have root access to my windows server. I right click on the folder, choose property, then click on security tab. I see 4 groups there.

creator owner, system, admin, users. what should I do from there?


Solution

  • I had to do something similar, but I was using a folder as a temp location and not a permanent resting place for my images. For this I created a new folder inside of my app_data folder and did my file system manipulations in there.
