ASP.NET permissions issues

Im using Windows Server 2008, IIS7, .NET 4 and when I use the FileUpload control to save a file to a directory I get :

Access to the path 'C:\xxx\Websites\CMS\Admin\test' is denied.

I have given the test folder full control permissions for NETWORK SERVICE but it makes no difference.

I have given full control to the Everyone user but makes no difference.

It might have something to do with the fact that up in the CMS folder there is a MVC web application and in the CMS\Admin folder there is a web forms web application. It is the web forms web application that is trying to upload the file and getting the permissions error.

Can anyone offer a suggestion.

Check the Application Pool that your site is running under and make sure that it is running as NetworkService instead of PoolIdentity.

Are you running your application in Medium Trust? Medium Trust does not allow file IO outside of it's own virtual path hierarchy.

Check the web.config for a <trust level="Medium" ... element.
