I have an intranet application built using ASP 3.0 and IIS 5.0. All it does is serve some PDF documents from oracle database to IE users on demand. A couple of users add these forms to the site (sort of application administrators) and when I tried to test that functionality, I was getting the above error message and went through some research (by the way the upload process uses FileSystemObject in ASP). KB articles 197619 and some more discussed about the problem, but the solutions did not really work for me.
So I added the so called admin users to administrator group locally to the physical folder of the application files on IIS box and asked them to try the site. Ola! It started working. Of course, I still get the error if try using any other accounts other than the ones I already gave full control. Though temporarily, I am off the hook, I want to solve this the right way. What was wrong here?
