<p><strong>Error Message:</strong></p> <p>Your bug was NOT submitted. Please hit back and resubmit your bug.: 006~ASP 0175~Disallowed Path Characters~The '..' characters are not allowed in the Path parameter for the MapPath method.</p> <p><strong>Solution:</strong></p> <ol> <li>Open IIS Manager, right click and choose properties on your FogBugz virtual directory (or the website root if FogBugz is installed at the root. </li> <li>Click the <strong>Home Directory</strong> or <strong>Virtual Directory</strong>&nbsp;tab and choose the <em>'Configuration'</em> button on that tab. </li> <li>Click the <strong>Options</strong> tab and make sure the <em>"Enable parent paths"</em> setting is enabled. </li> </ol> <p>Note that the <strong>IISLockDown </strong>tool will uncheck this setting.&nbsp; For FogBugz, this setting is required as a security feature.&nbsp; All uploaded files to your FogBugz application are kept in a folder that is NOT accessible by browsing to the general website.&nbsp; The files are only accessible by using the FogBugz application and therefore this setting needs to be enabled so FogBugz can reach those files which are kept in a parent directory to the FogBugz application.</p>
