The process account used to run ASP.NET must have read access to the IIS metabase

When I publish my asp.net application and configure with iis6.0 (in windows XP) I got the error

“The process account used to run ASP.NET must have read access to the IIS metabase “

Steps:

1) Open the command prompt and go to the root path.

2) (here I m used Operating System is Windows XP) go to the dotnet framework Path. cd {Your Root Path}\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727

3) write this in to command prompt aspnet_regiis –ga ASPNET

run this it gives The User ‘aspnet’ not exist.

This command with parameter (-ga) check the Grants the specified user (ASPNET) or group access to the IIS metabase and other directories that are used by ASP.NET.

4) write this in to command prompt aspnet_regiis –iru

run this it install the iis.

This command is Installs the version of ASP.NET that is associated with Aspnet_regiis.exe and only registers ASP.NET in IIS.

5) write this in to command prompt aspnet_regiis -s W3SVC/1/Root/.

Installs the script map points to the ASP.NET ISAPI version associated with Aspnet_regiis.exe. ASP.NET applications at the specified application root path and its subdirectories.

Thnx.
