UnauthorizedAccessException for static files when using IIS
I am developing a web application using ASP.Net core MVC. Initially to get started I manually copied the bootstrap and jQuery directly under wwwroot/lib folder. This worked fine.
To make the code maintainable, I thought it would be better to use client side library manager like libman.
This is what I have got in libman.json
"version": "1.0",
"defaultProvider": "unpkg",
"libraries": [
"library": "bootstrap@4.1.3",
"destination": "wwwroot/lib/bootstrap/"
,
"provider": "cdnjs",
"library": "jquery@3.3.1",
"destination": "wwwroot/lib/jquery/"
]
When I restore the client side library, I can see the files correctly restored under lib folder
Now when I compile and test the app locally using IIS, I am getting 500 error in developer tools while fetching bootstrap.css, jquery.js and bootstrap.js
When I tried to load bootstrap.css directly, I get 500 and message that access to the file is denied
UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:codewwwrootlibbootstrapdistcssbootstrap.css' is denied.
Any thoughts what would be causing this error?

The IIS app pool account user needs to have access to the files. Check the file permissions.

Thanks Poke. When I add the files manually they work fine. This problem only occurs when I remove the manually added files and use restore client libraries which then adds the file files and compiles the css file at build time.

I checked the permission and the application pool account has the permission on css folder

ah...strange. Even through at folder level it is showing that these permissions applies to folders, subfolders and files, the files itself dont have the permissions. Thanks poke. I will investigate
