access is denied

Does the IIS hosting user have ACL access that dir?

Why anyone should do your work? If you have a question, please ask it, but "send me" will hardly work here. Hire a developer instead.

Solution 3

1. Check your file is in read only mode. If yes, uncheck the readonly options in the properties of the file.

2. If you are running through IIS, u have to give permission to iisusrs to that folder.

Go to the folder where you have your xml and click on properties->Security tab->Edit>Add.

Location->select ur machine name
Enter the object u neeed to select , enter iis_iusrs.
Click on ok.
Then select Full control-Allow checkbox

Save it.Now iis users will have permission to write any files inside that folder

Solution 1

This is not related to your code per se. Access is denied. This directory is not accessible by ASP.NET. You can only work with files under the root directory of your site. To get a correct path to a physical file system object corresponding to a site's virtual path, use System.Web.HttpServerUtility.MapPath:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httpserverutility.mappath.aspx[^].

Also, working with XML like you do is not a mistake, but it rarely makes sense. In most cases, you can use serialization, in particular, Data Contract, which is the most robust, unobtrusive and easy to use way to persist any object or object graph:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms973893.aspx[^],
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733127.aspx[^].

please send clear example its not working

You don't tell us what's "not working". This is not informative. A "clear example" is in the first reference article.

FName = Server.MapPath("~/XMLFile.xml");
xw = new XmlTextWriter(FName, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8);
xw.WriteStartDocument();
xw.WriteStartElement("Employee");

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 8-Aug-12 13:29pm

Well, now check up the permissions for this physical directory...

lokesh lokesh 8-Aug-12 13:33pm

please tell to me how to give permissions

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 8-Aug-12 13:35pm

I mean, running a file manager as administrator (Explorer or anything) go to directory Properties -> Security...

Thank you, Wes. Strange season, the end of summer. Always a mass of very bad questions, almost no decent questions, idiotic down-votes... I plan for a short vacation...
