Hi,

I used the ASP.NET ftp upload utility to copy a site to a ISP host server.
That worked fine... but when I try to delete all the file in my host
directory via ASP.NET -- one of the files won't delete. It says in the Log
file. My question is were is the ftp Log file located?

Thanks,

King

Click to expand...

it seems that account used by ASP.NET has no rights to delete files
 
It depends on the host server. If it runs Windows and IIS, the default
location depends on the IIS version but it can be always changed in IIS
settings. So you don't really know much and, likely, you won't have access
to the logs anyway. Can you ask your ISP support?

Do you mean the ftp server's log file or the utility's log file?

If the former, it's on the server. If the latter, just search your disk
drives for files created that day and look for a likely candidate (e.g. if
may be named something.log).
