I'm getting a http digest login dialog box when loading the homepage of my graffiticms blog.
This happens almost every time that I load the homepage in a new browser session.
When I do Cancel and refresh the page, the page always loads fine. 

My site is in a hosted environment, so I do not have direct access to IIS.

The following error is displayed:
Access to the path 'D:\xxxxxxx.com\wwwroot\App_Data\Graffiti.vdb3' is denied.

and

What setting should I change for graffiti-cms to work? I've tried two different hosts now.
According to my provider, all folders have write permission set by default.

Hi.

 I'm experiencing the exact same error. It seems like whenever my web application restarts (e.g. editing Web.Config) I start off with this error. Upon refreshing the page, everything looks fine.

 Hope you figure out a solution.

Bump.

 Anyone know a solution to this? I tried uploading my entire Grafitti site to another hosting provider (cenvo.com) and I still get the same error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've also moved to another provider (redfoxhosting). Same problem. I made sure to start out with a fresh download as well.

Accourding to my provider, by default there are no restrictions on any folders.

Peter.

 Bump :-)

I was wondering if anyone got anything regarding this problem? I've tried the beta 1.1 as well, but I still have the same issues. I REALLY would like to use Graffiti CMS for my site.

Thanks,

 /Jakob

I have set up quite a few Graffiti CMS sites and never encountered this issue until earlier this week with a new set up with a new host. I had the exact same error as mentioned above. One of my hosts (servergrid.com) could not resolve it. The server admins stated it has to be something in the content/code because permissions are set appropiately. Unfortunately I cannot recreate the error on my local machine and the only place this error occurs is on the host. Therefore I'm going to have to switch host for this project.

The host that has worked well for me in the past is: discountasp.net 

 If I find anything out in the future, I'll update here. 

I've decided to move to Wordpress. Switching hosts is not a viable option.

But I will monitor this thread. Perhaps someone from Telligent will someday log this as a bug.

Peter.
