HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized

Hi all,

Sorry if you had this one before, but I hope you can help. I'm running
VS.NET 2003 on a Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition. The server acts
as a Domain Controller and a Web Server. It is purely used for
development. I should probably not do development on a server but I
need the functionality.

Everytime I want to create a new web project or open an existing one, I
am asked for my username and password. Although the username and
password IS CORRECT, it doesn't autheticate me. And if I cancel the
logon window, I receive a massage that I can't open or create the web
project because the virtual directory and the fisical path need to map
to the same location and I get that dreaded HTTP 401: Unauthorized
error.

How can I prevent being asked a username and password when opening a web
project in VS.NET. It must be some kind of a security issue. IT IS
DRIVING ME NUTS!

Thanx 4 you're help guys.

Hi Eben,

In order to know what is causing this, we need to know the full status
code. There are many reason for a 401 status code. It should be 401.#.
What is the number after the dot?

The good news is that I happened upon this thread and subject and it
matches exactly what I've been having problems with. The bad news is
that I also need help in dealing with the problem. Please consider that
there's one more person hoping to hear a solution to this.

Mike,

In order to determine the cause of any 401, we need to know the full status
code.

Thanks for your reply; it is heartening! Can you indulge me a little
further and clarify exactly what a 'full status code' is and how I go
about determining where I can find it.
As I'm certain you have discovered, I'm a bit of a novice at this.
Gratefully,

Hi Mike,

It will be in the IIS logs located in
c:\<windows_dir>\system32\logfiles\w3svc#. If you just send me that log
file, I can tell you the status code.

Jim: Thanks for the information. I've included below the latest file in
C:\WINDOWS\system32\LogFiles\W3kSVC357097357\ex040722.log. Once you've
determined the 'full status code', perhaps you can tell me how you
determined it, what is its significance, and what is to be done with the
information. I very much appreciate the time you're taking for this.
Cheers, Mike Schultz

Hi Mike,

You are getting a 401.1. Look at this:

2004-07-22 14:48:15 192.168.0.200 GET /d/winnt/system32/cmd.exe /c+dir 80 -
68.175.181.239 - 401 1 64

Look at the end of the line, after the IP address. You'll see this:

401 1 64

401.1 is what you're seeing.

Here's an article that outlines all of the IIS status codes. You'll see
that 401.1 indicates logon failure, likely caused by the failure of the
account being used to execute cmd.exe:
