I am having a problem when attempting to test pass through authentication from IIS manager.
IIS7 > Servername > SharePoint Web Services > ServiceApplicationID> Basic Settings
- Alias=<ServiceAppID>
- Application Pool=<ActiveDirectoryDomain\DomainAcct>
- Physical path = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers\14.0\WebServices\Metadata (wss_wpg has read & exec, list and read; wss_admin_wpg has full control and the service account is a member of both groups)
- Connect As = Application User (pass-through authentication)
Results in the following error: - 'There was an error while performing this operation.'
'Details:'
'Invalid application path'
However, if I connect as the service id assigned to that application pool, the test is successful.
This is ONLY happening in one of my 30+ farms - that farm happens to be on a different version of IIS...All other farms succeed in authentication and authorization when using the same settings.Also, although the test fails, the app seems to work fine.....
- IIS ver: 7.5.7600.16385 - FAILS
- IIS ver: 7.0.6000.16386 - PASSES
Are there any known issues with IIS Manager 7.5.7600.16385 which cause a false positive pass through connection test? I am willing to bet so... just don't know where\who to check... any direction would be awesome!
