Select your web site in the treeview on the left in IIS, then on the far right click "Basic Settings", does it say "Passthrough authentication" in tha dialog? It should, if not click the "Connect as" button and choose "Application user"

Hope that helps,

Is the site root folder nested below any folder at any level that has a web.config file in it?

Are you using a .NET 4 integrated app pool?

Is .NET 4.5 installed on the machine?

Is the site root folder nested below any folder at any level that has a web.config file in it?

I think that might be a problem since that is owned by your windows login user account and is a special folder in windows.

I would try installing in a root level folder on your main drive and set permissions for the user that is the identity on the app pool and see if you get better results.

ie C:\testsites\mojoportal2394 would be a good palce to install the files, set the permissions, then go back to basic settings in IIS and browse to the new location and see how it goes.

Hope that helps,

Glad its all sorted out! I'll have to remember that if this symptom comes up again in the forums. Thanks for the beers!
