Windows 2003 Server Agent Download Page Errors


Applies to:

  • Cenergy

Issue:

Accessing the Agent Download Page in Windows 2003 Server installations returns an error message:

HTTP Error 403.2 - Forbidden: Read access is denied

Resolution:

Microsoft has acknowledged a bug in Windows 2003 Server that affects permissions in IIS 6.0. For more information about this issue and instructions on how to obtain the hotfix, visit http://support.microsoft.com/?id=838790.

This hotfix will also be included in Windows 2003 Service Pack 1.

Note:

Alternatively, you can allow explicit read permissions on the ma2000 web share. This is not recommended, as it could potentially lead to an insecure environment. If this method is used, it is highly advised that it be used only until the Microsoft hotfix is installed.
