UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

I have a web server in the DMZ which is not on a domain.

I have set the default directory for the site to a UNC share on DFS through
a firewall, and I set the domain username / password for the share. I can
access this share from the web server without problem through the firewall,
and to be sure I did a net use with the same login info I set on the web site
to connect to the DFS share.

When I try to access any file through the site, I am getting a 500 internal
server error. Even when when viewing a .txt file, with that being the only
file in on the share. Typically this is an .ASP error, but I'm not using ASP
at all, only Plain HTML files.

Re: UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

Thanks, as an ex-classic asp programmer, that is the first thing I tried. I
still see the generic 500 error. I did a raw request with another tool and
the page I'm seeing is what is actually being served by IIS. The header is
simply a 500 response.

Re: UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

Hi Stefan,

Which accound are you setting in the IIS virtual directory's property as
the 'Connect As' account?

If it's a domain account, please make sure the account has permission on
both the IIS server and the remote UNC path. If it's a local account, you
have to ensure it exists on both machines(IIS and UNC) with the exactly
same username and password.

If the 'Connect As' account is incorrect, generally you will encounter the
500 error. Pass-through authentication(without using 'Connect As' account)
only works for anonymous access or basic authentication or integrated
windows authentication with delegation support.

Please update here on any findings or results.

Thanks and have a nice weekend.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang

Re: UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

I am using a domain account for connect as. I've verified repeatedly that
the information is correct. I've tried using the account name as
domain\login and just login.

I can connect to the share using NET USE and that login info from the IIS
server, so there doesn't seem to be an ACL issue on the share or a login
issue.

The IIS server is not on the domain. I've tried creating the same account
as a local account on the IIS server too, but that didn't seem to help.

The site is set to run with Anonymous Access.

Thanks,
Stefan

Re: UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

You are correct, 500.16. I incorrectly assumed this would be returned in the
response header.

So this means the UNC credentials are incorrect, however I'm providing the
correct domain\username and correct password. Perhaps I'm formatting the
domain / username incorrectly? Or can IIS not map to a share that is on a
domain of which it isn't a member of?

Thanks!

Re: UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

Hi Stefan,

500.16 ¨C UNC authorization credentials incorrect. It's indicate the
problem is still on the 'Connect As' account

IIS need to logon the 'Connect As' account and then use its credential to
access the remote UNC path. So you must ensure it's a valid account on IIS
server first. If it's a domain account, is the IIS server joined into the
domain as well?

As I mentioned previously, you can create local account on both IIS server
and the remote UNC machine with the same username and password. e.g:

create account: testuser password01 on both IIS and the UNC server. Grant
them with appropriate permissions. Then please test if IIS starts to be
able to access the remote share.

Please update here if problem still persists.

Have a good day.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang

Re: UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

The IIS server is not on the domain. The account I'm trying to use is a
Domain account. The UNC path is on DFS. I will try adding a local account
to each of the DFS servers and the IIS server and use that instead of the
domain account.

Re: UNC Share causing Internal Server Error 500

That worked. Apparently you CANNOT have a UNC share login that is from a
domain that the web server is not a member of.

I found that ASP.NET requires that account to have permissions on the
Temporary ASP.NET folder too, so I suppose that would rule out the
possibility of using a domain account as well.

Thanks for your help, even though I don't like the answer! :)
