i have been trough the other entries here on stackoverflow but nowhere is there a step by step way to solve this? is it THAT complicated?
i want to unzip to a folder on my local drive and also get this error. must i do something in my webconfig?
should i just have write access to the whole of my c drive?? that wont be good?
thanks

Too long for comment, hence posting an answer -
Open your IIS, follow the instructions in this post. This tells you how to check for Application pool identity.
By default, the asp.net applications run under an account that has minimum permissions, and are denied rights to write to c:\ location.
Change the application pool identity to use a local account that has the permissions required to create a directory etc. operations that you are attempting. (You could test this by putting your login in the app pool identity, although not recommended for deployed code).

I am unable to access a public container using the C# SDK, even though I have enabled "Allow Blob public access" in the storage account configuration.
var fileSystemClient = new DataLakeFileSystemClient(new Uri("https://somestorageaccount.dfs.core.windows.net/public"), new DataLakeClientOptions());
var paths = fileSystemClient.GetPaths();
foreach (var path in paths)

Console.WriteLine(path);
}
This code throws the following exception:
Azure.RequestFailedException: 'Server failed to authenticate the
request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed

Is there anything I can configure to make this work?
I tried in my environment and got below results:

Browser:
When we are accessing through file system, Files kept in storage system are not accessible anonymously. It is necessary to authorize access even if it is public Access level. You are getting this error because you are attempting to access the resource without authorization.
If you need to access files, you need to authorize with SAS token.

You can get SAS-token by clicking file with generate SAS token.

I am trying to make a XBAP application communicating with a webservice with login.
But I want the user to skip the login step if they already logged in the last seven days.
I got it to work using html/aspx.
But it fails continuously with XBAP.
While debugging, the application is given full trust.
This is the code I have so far to write the cookie:
protected static void WriteToCookie(
string pName,
Dictionary<string, string> pData,
int pExiresInDays)
{
// Set the cookie value.
string data = "";
foreach (string key in pData.Keys)
{
data += String.Format("{0}={1};", key, pData[key]);
}
string expires = "expires=" + DateTime.Now.AddDays(pExiresInDays).ToUniversalTime().ToString("r");
data += expires;
try
{
Application.SetCookie(new Uri(pName), data);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
}
And this is what I have to read the cookie:
protected static Dictionary<string, string> ReadFromCookie(
string pName)
{
Dictionary<string, string> data = new Dictionary<string, string>();
try
{
string myCookie = Application.GetCookie(new Uri(pName));
// Returns the cookie information.
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(myCookie) == false)
{
string[] splitted = myCookie.Split(new char[] { ';' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
string[] sub;
foreach(string split in splitted)
{
sub = split.Split(new char[] { ':' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
if (sub[0] == "expires")
{
continue;
}
data.Add(sub[0], sub[1]);
}
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
}
return data;
}
The pName is set with:
string uri = "http://MyWebSiteName.com";
When the user authenticate the first time, I call the WriteToCookie function and set it with 7 days to expire.
It looks like everything is fine as I get no exception of error messages. (I have a break point in the catch)
After that, I close the session and start it again.
The first thing I do is a ReadFromCookie.
Then I get an exception with the following message: No more data is available
So my application is sending the user automatically back to the login screen.
I also tried to do a ReadFromCookie right after the WriteToCookie in the same session, and I get the same error.
Application.SetCookie(new Uri("http://MyWebSiteName.com/WpfBrowserApplication1.xbap"), "Hellllo");
string myCookie2 = Application.GetCookie(new Uri("http://MyWebSiteName.com/WpfBrowserApplication1.xbap"));
It seems to me that the cookie is not even written in the first place.
So I am guessing I am doing something wrong.
Maybe the uri I am using is wrong. Is there a specific format needed for it?
Just like you need a very specific format for the expire date.
I have been searching quite a lot of internet for a good sample/tutorial about using cookies with XBAP, and I could not find anything really well documented or tested.
A lot of people say that it works, but no real sample to try.
A lot of people also handle the authentication in html, then go to the XBAP after successfully reading/writing the cookies.
I would prefer a full XBAP solution if possible.
To answer some questions before they are asked, here are the project settings:
Debug:
Command line arguments: -debug -debugSecurityZoneURL http://MyWebSiteName.com "C:\Work\MyWebSiteName\MyWebSiteNameXBAP\bin\Debug\MyWebSiteNameXBAP.xbap"
Security:
Enable ClickOnce security settings (Checked)
This is a full trust application (selected)
I also created a certificate, and added it the 3 stores like explained in "publisher cannot be verified" message displayed
So I do not have the warning popup anymore. I just wanted to make sure that it was not a permission issue.
Finally found the answer to this problem.
Thanks for this CodeProject I was finally able to write/read cookies from the XBAP code.
As I had guessed, the URI needs to be very specific and you cannot pass everything you want in it.
What did the trick was using: BrowserInteropHelper.Source
In the end the read/write code looks like:
Application.SetCookie(BrowserInteropHelper.Source, data);
string myCookie = Application.GetCookie(BrowserInteropHelper.Source);
It looks like you cannot use ';' to separate your own data.
If you do so, you will only get the first entry in your data.
Use a different separator (ex: ':') and then you can get everything back
The data look like this:
n=something:k=somethingElse;expires=Tue, 12 May 2015 14:18:56 GMT ;
The only thing I do not get back from Application.GetCookie is the expire date.
Not sure if it is normal or not. Maybe it is flushed out automatically for some reason. If someone knows why, I would appreciate a comment to enlighten me.
At least now I can read/write data to the cookie in XBAP. Yeah!
I have a windows service that can create an executable in the users windows session, via calling the "CreateProcessAsUser" function. This works fine as long as there is a windows session already there. In the case that there isn't one already I'd like to be able to create one programmatically. Is this is possible? Can't seem to find a function to do it.
This isn't quite the solution for the question I asked, but it was the solution that helped achieve what I was trying to achieve by asking this question, if you see what I mean.
Rather than have having a windows services that creates a server session you can configure windows to automatically logon at boot time. This still means someone could accenditally log off, but cures the main reason for sessions disappearing: the server being rebooted. Use the following steps to activate auto-logon:
Press the Windows key + R on your keyboard to launch the “Run” dialog box.
Type regedit and hit enter to open the Registry Editor
Then browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\
Set AutoAdminLogon = 1 (create it if doesn't exist its a string variable)
Set DefaultUserName = your username (create it if doesn't exist its a string variable)
Set DefaultPassword = your password (create it if doesn't exist its a string variable)
Instructions were taken from this post:
http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/coolstuff/Tip-Auto-Login-Your-Windows-7-User-Account
You cannot create a new session from a service. Sessions are managed by the OS. New ones get created when users logon interactively.
#Robert, I know this is an old question and that you've already found something that works for you but in my case I was looking for something similar to your original question and I did finally figure it out so I thought I'd share. My solution uses only .NET and a COM reference not the Win32 API mentioned in your title, but I'm guessing that wasn't really a requirement for you.
I've written a simple utility to using the Remote Desktop ActiveX control (COM Reference). If you paste this code into a Class Library you can then call it by simply passing in the server, username, domain, and password and everything is done for you without any other interaction required. Once the method is complete you can then call your "CreateProcessAsUser" Code. I've written this utility in a way so that you could call it every time but initiating an RDP session takes several seconds so for performance sake I'd suggest you write another method to enumerate the sessions and see if your user is logged in and only call this utility when you determine that your user isn't logged in (That's what I did in my actual project). If you feel you need help with that post in the comments and I'll share how I did that but It's not really part of this question so for now I'm leaving it out.
Here's a link back to my question that has a few more requirements/details than this question.
Create Windows Session programmatically from Console or Windows Service
And here's my RDP utility. After you put this code in a class library you can then call it from a console app, winForms app, or from a windows service running on the same machine or from a remote machine.
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using AxMSTSCLib;
namespace Utility.RemoteDesktop
{
public class Client
{
private int LogonErrorCode { get; set; }
public void CreateRdpConnection(string server, string user, string domain, string password)
{
void ProcessTaskThread()
{
var form = new Form();
form.Load += (sender, args) =>
{
var rdpConnection = new AxMSTSCLib.AxMsRdpClient9NotSafeForScripting();
form.Controls.Add(rdpConnection);
rdpConnection.Server = server;
rdpConnection.Domain = domain;
rdpConnection.UserName = user;
rdpConnection.AdvancedSettings9.ClearTextPassword = password;
rdpConnection.AdvancedSettings9.EnableCredSspSupport = true;
if (true)
{
rdpConnection.OnDisconnected += RdpConnectionOnOnDisconnected;
rdpConnection.OnLoginComplete += RdpConnectionOnOnLoginComplete;
rdpConnection.OnLogonError += RdpConnectionOnOnLogonError;
}
rdpConnection.Connect();
rdpConnection.Enabled = false;
rdpConnection.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
Application.Run(form);
};
form.Show();
}
var rdpClientThread = new Thread(ProcessTaskThread) { IsBackground = true };
rdpClientThread.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA);
rdpClientThread.Start();
while (rdpClientThread.IsAlive)
{
Task.Delay(500).GetAwaiter().GetResult();
}
}
private void RdpConnectionOnOnLogonError(object sender, IMsTscAxEvents_OnLogonErrorEvent e)
{
LogonErrorCode = e.lError;
}
private void RdpConnectionOnOnLoginComplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (LogonErrorCode == -2)
{
Debug.WriteLine($" ## New Session Detected ##");
Task.Delay(10000).GetAwaiter().GetResult();
}
var rdpSession = (AxMsRdpClient9NotSafeForScripting)sender;
rdpSession.Disconnect();
}
private void RdpConnectionOnOnDisconnected(object sender, IMsTscAxEvents_OnDisconnectedEvent e)
{
Environment.Exit(0);
}
}
}
What about the LogonUser function?

I am having some trouble with a asp.net MVC3 web application that I am developing. I need an upload page which Allows the user to upload excel files and dump them to the file system. I got this to work fine. The next part is the part that I am having trouble with, After I upload the excel files I need to programmatically kick off a SSIS package which I have created already to import the excel files.
Here is what I have so far in code:
//
// POST: /Home/Update/
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Update(HttpPostedFileBase file)
{
// Verify that the user selected a file
if (file != null && file.ContentLength > 0)
{
var fileName = Path.GetFileName(file.FileName);
// store the file inside ~/App_Data/uploads folder
var path = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/uploads"), fileName);
ViewBag.Message = "File Uploaded Successfully";
file.SaveAs(path);
}
//Start the SSIS here
try
{
Application app = new Application();
Package package = null;
package = app.LoadPackage( #"C:\Users\Chris\Documents\Visual Studio
2008\Projects\Integration Services Project1\Integration Services Project1
\bin\Package.dtsx", null);
// Execute Package
DTSExecResult results = package.Execute();
if(results == DTSExecResult.Failure)
{
foreach(DtsError local_DtsError in package.Errors)
{
ViewBag.Message("Package Execution results:{0}",
local_DtsError.Description.ToString());
}
}
}
catch(DtsException ex)
{
//ViewBag.Message("{0} Exception caught.", ex);
}
// redirect back to the index action to show the form once again
return RedirectToAction("Update");
}
When I run the code and upload an excel file I get a DtsException caught, which says:
Failed to open package file "C:\Users\Chris\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\Integration Services Project1\Integration Services Project1\bin\Package.dtsx" due to error 0x80070003 "The system cannot find the path specified.". This happens when loading a package and the file cannot be opened or loaded correctly into the XML document. This can be the result of either providing an incorrect file name was specified when calling LoadPackage or the XML file was specified and has an incorrect format.
I don't understand why it is giving me this because the file path is right I checked and it is exactly correct. I need some help fixing this issue I would greatly appreciate any help you guys can give.
Permissions I should think. Put the file somewhere where account running IIS can see it. Whereever you were planning on deploying it, would be good.
Hi I've search around for this quite a bit but I didn't find a situation that really resembled mine..hope I didn't miss a duplicate somewhere
The Goal: Return a file from a UNC share to the client as a download/open option.
Info: The share is located on a different server than the one hosting the web site. When a corresponding folder name on the menu is clicked, I am able to successfully read from the share (I return the files as a JSON result) and in Jquery I then append list items for each file found in the folder and make the list item ID's the filename. This works great.
When these appended list items are clicked on I pass their ID's (which are the filename, like "thefile.pdf") to the following controller which returns a FileContentResult.
files[0].ToString() below is similar to "\server\folder\"
public ActionResult OpenTheFile(string id)
{
List<string> files = new List<string>();
files.AddRange(Directory.GetFiles(LNFiles.ThePath, id, SearchOption.AllDirectories));
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + id + ";");
return File(files[0].ToString(), System.Net.Mime.MediaTypeNames.Application.Pdf, id);
}
And yes the obligatory "it works on my local machine". When deployed to the IIS 7.5 server and I click on the list item I get this YSOD error:
The handle is invalid. (Exception from
HRESULT: 0x80070006 (E_HANDLE))
I'm impersonating a user with rights to the file share...I'm at a loss, i was thinking something with encoding or screwed up rights? I've tried using a virtual dir instead but alas same issue.
In my case
changing this:
public ActionResult Download(int id)
{
var item = ItemRepo.GetItemById(id);
string path = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Items"), item.Path);
return File(path, "application/octetstream", item.Path);
}
to this:
public ActionResult Download(int id)
{
var item = ItemRepo.GetItemById(id);
string path = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Items"), item.Path);
return File(new FileStream(path, FileMode.Open), "application/octetstream", item.Path);
}
has worked. I am putting this here just in case anyone needs.
Check out this for a workaround
You may want to try a packet capture to see if you are receiving the same issue as documented here:
http://forums.asp.net/t/1473379.aspx/1
For your unc path - are you directly referencing \servername\share or are you using a network mapped drive letter?
God Bless you : ProgRockCode.
and since that involved an ActionResult, I wrote a custom ActionResult that used the "WriteFile" method.
public override void ExecuteResult(ControllerContext context)
{
context.HttpContext.Response.WriteFile(FilePath, true);
context.HttpContext.Response.End();
}
