"Unknown user name or bad password" while getting files from another server

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by bernardqin 573

I am trying running batch to get files from a folder in another server, and get the error "unknown user name or bad password". 

The file server does not belong to any domain, and I share the folder to anyone with full control. When the batch class runs from client, it does work. However, it fails when running as batch.

Does anyone give me some advice?

The codes are as below:

permission = new InteropPermission(InteropKind::ClrInterop);
permission.assert();

directory = new System.IO.DirectoryInfo(_path); // Error occurs here.
files = directory.GetFiles(#AllFilesName + #txt);
counter = files.get_Length();
for (idx = 0; idx < counter; idx++)
{

......

}
CodeAccessPermission::revertAssert();

    Hi bernardqin,

    Check that AOS user has access to that computer

    Hi ievgen,

    Thank you for your reply. The AOS user is NETWORK SERVICE, and I add this user to file server with full control, but the error is still there.

    Hi bernardqin,

    First of all, you should not use NETWORK SERVICE as AOS account, please refer to technet technet.microsoft.com/.../dd362055.aspx

    You said that you granted access to network service account but you should grant access to computer "MYDOMAIN\MachineA$" where MYDOMAIN is AOS domain and MachineA is AOS server name. Please refer for details http://serverfault.com/questions/41130/network-service-account-accessing-a-folder-share

    If the file server is not part of any domain, then you won't be able to grant permissions for the machine account of a machine on a domain, or even whatever domain account you use for the AOS service.  You'll probably have to use some type of account/password matching, or join that file server to the domain, to get it to work.
