I had been trying to use: System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable, which
works perfectly on the CLI, but when I run it in the IIS CGI environment I
get:
Unhandled Exception: System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the
permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.EnvironmentPermission,
mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'
failed
So I guess I need to grant it permissions to get the environment variable,
but I don't have a clue how to do this.
Hi,
This is about the user the CGI runs...
In most cases, IIS user is IUSR_machine, a kind of equivalent to unix user "none".
Due to security restrictions of the IUSR_machine user, it can't acces to its environement variables. So you have to search in IIS how you can change the user it uses for CGI access...
Good luck
Damien
