IIS to fire up our application, and by placing the CreateProcessAsUser in the registry under the local Machine\services\w3svc\params we had a working model.

What We wanted to do was utilie Extended Logging which does not seem to be
available inIIS V3, and so tried a dummy run with a spare server using IIS V4 and upgrading from IIS V3.

When it would not allow inter process CGI scripts to be fired off, I looked at the server and found mention of the metabase, which can hold a copy of theCreateProcessAsUser identifier - I placed this in the Webserver context - ad lo, nothing changes. I have tried several other settings and running in seperate memory space etc...still no joy.

Does anyone have experience of this or can point out a good reference source for the problem. I can step back to IIS V3, and have a log handler written, but hey, I thought these MS products were supposed to get better and more functional - not less (or is that me being naive?).

Cheers & TIA for any heads up.

I hate to quote out a bunch of Microsoft articles, but they have helped me in the past. The one that I think applies here is
Q190002
If that fails try:
Q194948 Q160422
and maybe Q261205 would be some help

If these don't work, can you post any messages/errors you get - even from event viewer?
