403.1 Error

Patrick

Running Microsoft Content Management Server 2002 with SP1a on IIS5.1 on
Windows XP Professional with SP2, which is a development environment. The
database repository is a SQL Server 2000 with SP3a on a Windows 2000 Server
with SP4.

I had no problem with Viewing the website, or editing the website, but when
I am on "editing mode" on MCMS2002, if I click on the "Channel Properties"
or "Page Properties" link, I get a 403.1 error: Forbidden: Execute Access
Forbidden
Internet Information Services. I defintely did *not* do any manipulation to
the MCMS virtual directories/applications on IIS MMC, other than additing a
CMS virtual directory under my CMS application called (website), pointing to
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Content Management Server\Server\IIS_CMS

What could be wrong?

Hi Patrick,

does you CMS directory have "Execute Permissions: Scripts only" set?

Cheers,
Stefan.

The very very strange thing is that my CMS application, which is called
website seems a little doggy on CMS. Because I was developing with Visual
Studio Enterprise .NET 2003 and it failed to get the source code once from
Source safe (when I was rebuilding it). I deleted the Application from IIS
and readded it from sour safe, then for quite a few times, when I then add
back the CMS Virtual Directory underneath thhe website application, it
complained that the alias CMS does not exist. Is there a "proper" way of
deleting the CMS virtual directory and recreating it? Although I did
manage to delete the website application and readd it in the end, it seems
invisiible sometimes. But from my recollection, there was only read
permission (which is how it is set up on our functional production server)
Secondly, the "website" directory/application actually reside under
c:\inetpub\wwwroot currently on my dev PC. What do I need to do to my
source code, etc. to "move" this to another location (e.g. f:\web\website)??
Do I simply copy the source code to f:\. let VS2003 create the website
application/virtual directory pointingg to f:\web\website and compile the
source code?

Oh, and the CMS Virtual Directory underneath the website application is set
up to have "Scripts only" permission on IIS, just like the CMS virtual
directory is set up under the MCMS application. Is this "correct" or not?

I think I know what the problem might be:
1) This CMS Virtual Directory underneath my Website application, I did
manage to create it after removing the app, and then physically deleting the
directory (from IIS)
2) Next, obtained the VS2003 solution file, let VSS obtain the rest of the
code underneath c:\inetpub\wwwroot\website, and let VS2003 create the
website application under IIS.
3) Next, I go to IIS to manually recreate the CMS virtual directory with
read permission underneath this website application VS2003 created for me.
This works
4) Now, if I close IIS MMC and reopen it, this CMS Virtual directory i
cannot see underneath the "website" application, if I try to manually
recreate it , I get warning say "The alias you have given is not unique" and
I cannot continue.

Hi Patrick,

is this Windows XP?
Then you are most likely running into this problem:
