Windows Service: Copy files from a shared folder

[sebouh181]

Hi,

I have a Windows Service that copies xml files from a shared folder on the server.

I am using System.IO.File. Copy(\\Server-Name\SharedDir) method. But whenever I try to copy files there is an error "Access is denied".

I tried the same code in Windows application and it worls fine. The problem is present only in the Windows Service.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Change the user that your windows service runs under. By default its probably using a user that doesn't have access to the files.
