I'm not sure what your application does - so I don't know exactly what
folders you need to give permissions to. I just based it on the fact that
the "data" folder contained a "tmp" folder, which implies that's where
temporary working files should go.

You may not need Full Control - maybe only "Change" or similar. However, I
would give this right to the IIS_WPG group. All user accounts that can be
used as process identities for Web App Pools are/should be placed into this
group (that's why it's called the IIS_WPG for Worker Process Group). So
LocalSystem, Network Service, Local Service etc are in there.

Cheers
Ken

: Thanks Ken. That seems to have worked - but what have I done and is that
the final
: solution? :-) Is it okay to leave it like that or should I narrow the
permissions down?
