I have a c# web application that accesses a SQL server database. If I
install the web app under the root InetPub/wwwroot/applicationname then it
works fine but if I move the directory outside of Inetpub then I get the
following error:

SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the
current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information
about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: SQL Server does not
exist or access denied.

I have given ASPNET and everyone else full rights to the directory and that
doesn't help. So the only way I can get the apps to work is move them into
the inetpub wwwroot directory. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thanks for any help.
