Hi All, Rick, thank you for moving this over to CF-Talk... appreciate your efforts.
To answer some questions. 1. Create file (I have remote desktopped in, as Administrator) in that directory, created a .txt file, it has the following permissions: - Administrator, Network Service, Domain User (IUSR_this domain)... (among others) readable via HTTP://www.thisdomain.com/services/captcha/image_store/theFileiJustCreated.txt 2. Have I set the temp directory in ImageCFC... no it is its default of: <cfset variables.tempDirectory = "#expandPath(".")#"> 3. The file created by the image.cfc when invoked as a web service has permissions of: Administrator IUSR_domain_making_the_request System 4. The /services/captcha/image_store/ folder has permissions set to: Administrator IUSR_creating/this_domain etc... all set to propagate to child objects etc... **This app/service was working with CFMX 7.x During upgrade we also moved some domains around etc... and I think a file permission issue cropped up. Originally we were running this service on the 'default IIS6.0' domain, and we moved it to another domain (same machine, same IP etc). We have checked hosts file in windows/system32/drivers/etc -- originally this was causing an issue where CF admin could not 'register' the service as our firewall prevents browsing of domains on our machine (some dns setup thing).. so we have set hosts to send any requests to www.theservicesdomain.com to our internal 192.168.168.2 (this is a shared IP for about 35 domains)... not sure if that would have anything to do with this -- can't imagine it would??
