IIS: 403 Access is denied.

[Teknoratti]

I don't know too much about IIS 6.0, and I'm trying to figure out why as an admin I can't access a website on the localhost. I installed a reporting server from Symantec which installed by default, but when I type the url,

http://<servername>/reporting

I get 'You are not authorized to view this page'
Http Error 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.

Now I know this has something to do with perms, but I dont know where to look to troubleshoot the problem.

Any thoughts will be appreciated. Let me know if anyone needs to see any log info.

In IIS if you don't uncheck the "Enable Anonymous Access" then you will be going in as the "IUSR..." account.

You might want to ask this question in the IIS forum ( forum41 )
