At one point we did get it working. I think it had something to do with Write permissions to the temp directory or the ChartFX temp directory and the IUSR account for IIS, but I don't remember exactly what it was anymore. That was on Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6.0. We moved to Windows Server 2008 and IIS 7 last year and had even more trouble with ChartFX so we scrapped the whole thing and converted our charts to use the Microsoft charting control, which is free, and can be added to the VS 2008 toolbox or comes with VS 2010. The only apps we use ChartFX for anymore are our Windows desktop apps. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck.

I hate being the first to reply to my own post but... I just went into the Sharing & Security properties for the C:\Program Files\Chart FX 7\ChartFX70\temp folder and gave the Everyone group full control and now my charts are working. Obviously, I don't want the Everyone group to have Full Control. Can someone tell me what user should have what rights to that directory so my charts will work? Thanks, Greg

I just installed Chart FX 70 on our production server, then moved a web app that's working on my development machine to the production box. This is the error I'm getting: Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'C:\Program Files\Chart FX 7\ChartFX70\temp\CFV0209_094123293DF.chs' is denied. ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user. To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access. I've installed ChartFX 70 sp 1, I've created the directory above and given IUSR and ASPNET full control to the directory. I've made the directory a virtual directory through IIS. I've done everything I can find on this site or google but can't get this working. So I have a couple questions: 1) Is there a way to test that chart fx 70 is installed correctly on my production server? When I installed it none of the samples were installed, which is to be expected on a prod server. So how do I test that my install is working? 2) Is there some kind of property or config file for Chart FX that I can turn something on to get a more detailed error descritption? 3) This is the error I originally got, but I've tried so many things I forget what I did to change it to the error listed above. However, it seems to refer to Chart FX 6 and the review date is 4/27/00 so I assume it's leftover code from something and may not be indicitive of what's really wrong. CFX61B0-3 : Error creating temporary file. Could not find a part of the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\chartfx70\temp\CFV0209_12115317575.chs'. the above error message was hyperlinked to this page: http://support.softwarefx.com/error/Cfx70/CFX61B0-3.htm Any input is greatly appreciated. My head is really starting to hurt from pounding it against the wall. TIA, Greg
