I am starting to move my dashboard to IIS, but Im getting the above said error when opening the page. I have gone through all the topic in the forum, tried most of the solution advised but none work. In the event log, I can the error below - nothing else.

Application ‘MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/DEFAULT WEB SITE’ with physical root 'D:\Inetpub\wwwroot' failed to start process with commandline ‘C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe .\main.ps1’, ErrorCode = '0x80004005 : 0.

Any ideas what went wrong?

Out of interest what was the solution?
It would be useful to post, incase anyone else searches the error code or problem and finds this thread looking for the answer :slight_smile:

I was the damn .NET Framework - I totally forgot to instal it on a new server. :smiley:

By the way, @insomniacc, did you get your AuthorizationPolicy to work? Apparently, from my Windows authentication I can only see my LDAP ID - nothing else. Get-AuthorizationPolicy returned nothing when i use "$user -match “LDAP_ID”. Sighh…

Yes, I’ve got no issues with authentication.
Hopefully this will help:

  1. Make sure you have forwardWindowsAuthToken=“true” in your web.config file
  2. In IIS if thats how you’re hosting, enable Windows Authentication, Disable Anonymous Authentication
  3. In your dashboard code, try something like this:

$AuthorizationPolicy = @()
$AuthorizationPolicy += New-UDAuthorizationPolicy -Name “Admin” -Endpoint {
param($User)
$grantedaccess = $false
if($user.Identity.Groups -contains “S-1-5-21-SIDofGroup”){ # (using the SID to protect against name changes)
$grantedaccess = $true
}elseif($user.Identity.Name -in @(“Domain\Username1”,“Domain\Username2”)){
$grantedaccess = $true
}
return $grantedaccess
}
$AuthMethod = New-UDAuthenticationMethod -windows
$LoginPage = New-UDLoginPage -AuthenticationMethod $AuthMethod -AuthorizationPolicy $AuthorizationPolicy -PassThru
New-UDDashboard -LoginPage $LoginPage

If you still struggle, take the above auth block, strip out the contents and put
$user | convertto-json | out-file "outlocation\outfile.txt"
Take a look to make sure you’re getting the full user object output.
