Virtual Directory pointing to UNC Share 'Configuration Error' when accessing files.

$

Hi,

Having successfully created a Virtual Directory that points to a UNC share in IIS, I'm now having trouble accessing it via the web.

When I try to access a file in the share/VD I get the following error:


Server Error in '/App' Application.

Configuration Error

Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service this request. Please review the specific error details below and modify your configuration file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: An error occurred loading a configuration file: Failed to start monitoring changes to '\\Server\F1\F2\F3'.

Source Error:

[No relevant source lines]


Source File: \\Server\F1\F2\F3\web.config    Line: 0                 


Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:4.0.30319; ASP.NET Version:4.0.30319.272

There is no web.config file in the F3 folder of the UNC share. Does there need to be? Could it just inherit from the /App's one?

The IIS Server and UNC share machine are in a Workgroup not a Domain.

There is an account with identical credentials on the IIS Server and UNC share machine that is used to access the share in Windows. This User ID is also used in the Application Pool that the App is running in. According to IIS Authorization and Authentication is good for the App Pool to access the Virtual Directory pointing to the UNC Share.

At a Windows security level the 'shared' user ID has Full Access to the UNC share.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Matt
