Some times ASP.net applications hosted on iis could not load and start giving errors like
"Could not Access IIS Metabase" or "The process account used to run ASP.NET must have read access to the IIS metabase"
After spending a lot of time on it and trying a lot of things like
Installing aspnet user using aspnet_regiis -i
Reinstalling IIS
Reparing visual studio
Granting access to IUser and Aspnet user to root directory and the direcotry where these files were stored
etc ,
I finally got rid of this situation by
Adding Aspnet user to the Administrator pool of this machine and it worked for me
but it was not a good idea so i tried with ASPNet User like
aspnet_regiis -ga ASPNET
and it worked for me .
hope this will work for you as well.
