The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

permission denied Microsoft VBScript runtime  error '800a0046'  using WScript.Shell

Asked by simplyamazing in Active Server Pages (ASP)

Tags: , , , ,

Hi all,

I've got an issue with a script that uses the WScript.Shell.  The problem is that I keep getting a permission denied error.
I've set permissions on the folder, the file, and even "wscript.exe" file itself in the Windows\System32 folder to
"everyone" with full permissions with the same results.
I'm a bit baffled as to why I would still have a permissions issue.
The script is running on IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 Server Enterprise - it is set up as a domain controller, so the IWAM account was given full permissions as well.

<%

Set oShell = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
RetCode = oShell.Run("C:\test\test.bat", 1, True)

%>


it crashes on the second line with "  permission denied Microsoft VBScript runtime  error '800a0046'  "

What other permissions are there to set up?  
I've done this in the past on IIS5 and earlier and all I had to do was set up the IUSR account with read & execute.

With full permissions set to "Everyone" this should work (unless I'm missing some other setting besides the files, the folders, the objects and the website).

Any ideas?
