While trying to fix some troubles getting to a local webpage on our network in IIS manager i managed to make it completely unavailable.

I thought i had only been messing with Authentication settings in feature view but even after changing everything back i cant seem to view the webpage even on the localhost. I get Access denied. you do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource

Like i said i changed everything i did back. Reset IIS Made sure App pool was pointing at correct physical location Tried to change Anonymous user to Application pool identity Change anonymous user to a specific user I dont see anything in the logs but not 100% sure what im looking for..

Thanks!

  • check the apppool user has access. what's your apppool called? – lloyd May 15 '15 at 03:18
  • just using defaultAppPool. which has read/Read $execute and list folder contents permissions on the wwwroot directory – lucas boehm May 15 '15 at 10:06
  • "i changed everything i did back". What did you do and how are you sure you changed everything back? IIS has [backup config](http://blogs.iis.net/bills/how-to-backup-restore-iis7-configuration). what logs did you look at? – lloyd May 15 '15 at 11:57

  • Just the items in Authentication Feature I was changing some to enabled but i disabled them again afterwards. Does IIS backup single sites and where is the backup config located? I was looking at logs in C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles and i have tried to use the things on that post with no luck.. Cant seem to find exact error just says Access Denied with no additional detail. – lucas boehm May 15 '15 at 12:46
