I am trying to run .net under a custom account and have been successful doing
this in our staging environment, but am unable to get it to work in
production. Here is what is happening:
I created a domain account and have used aspnet_setreg to encrypt the
account and password information.
I have put the correct entries into the ProcessModel section of the
machine.config
I have given permissions to all of the correct directories
However, when I attempt to reference a webpage, I get the following error:

aspnet_wp.exe could not be launched because the username and/or password
supplied in the processModel section of the config file are invalid.

I have verified that my logon and password are correct. I am at a loss as
to where to go next. Anybody got any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Linda
 
I'm going to answer my own question here. It's pretty embarrassing, but it
might help someone else, so here goes. When I was inserting the data into
the registry using aspnet_setreg, I had set up a batch file to do this
command and was inserting a space after each parameter. So, the username and
password that were in the registry were incorrect.
