Web pages asks for User ID & Password. Why?

[josel]

Howdy!

I posted this question in the IIE forum but no much help there, I hope to do better here.

I have installed the 'kalendar' application in my website. This application suggests that I install it in a sub-directory named kalendar. My site is defined in /inetpub/

http://wwwroot

and it is named 'sobella.com' - So, I created a directory which in turn will fall under the tree /inetput/

http://wwwroot/sobella.com/kalendar

as suggested by the 'kalendar' application. Within, there are several other sub-directories where images, CFC and CFM documents are kept; these are loaded by CFM pages ...

All is well except for the fact that every time I load the calendar, I am asked for an user name and password. If I type in my Admin info, the calendar resolves nicely and all looks perfect. If I CANCEL, the page resolves but it only shows text (as if the scripts are not executed).

I have checked for permissions within IIE and cannot cure this problem, no matter what I try. I have gone as far as getting rid of the 'kalendar' directory and placing documents within my site's root directory. I still end-up with a couple sub-directories and still am asked for user name and password.

I love this application and I need it as much as I need air (well, sort of).

Any and all help will be appreciated. As usual, thank you all for your reading my post and your help.

Regards,

Jose Lerebours

There are three locations to verify your permissions. One is the settings on the virtual directory in IIS. Make sure it's configured in the style you want (basic, digest, integrated, Kerberos, whatever). Two is the permissions on the resource itself and the directory it lives in (Windows security). Three is (if applicable) the permission of the share if you've shared the containing directory.

HTH,
