Thread: Question about importing product from excel

I have what seems to be a permissions error;

Access to the path '\\fs2-n02\stor2wc2dfw1\434648\xxxx\web\content\images\09 385ab1-028a-4ade-b1fe-8a9727fad4ef.xls' is denied.

Line 97: string xml = String.Empty;
Line 98:
Line 99: PostedFile.SaveAs(FullFilePath);
Line 100: StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(FullFilePath);
Line 101: string filecontent = sr.ReadToEnd();

Has anyone got any idea what I need to change?

Thanks

This a permission issue. You'll need to give the ASP.Net Process Account or Network Service a read and write permission to the {root}/images folder.

Thanks, my host told me to set CHMOD 777 but the file has a new error:

ERROR: File Uploaded Error:
Exception=Access to the path '\\fs2-n02\stor2wc2dfw1\434648\xxx\web\content\images\Imp ort_127200942136AM.xls' is denied.

I can see it's still a permissions issue... do I need them to do something else?

Make sure you've got read/write/modify access, not just read/write.

Will do thanks
