    Am trying to get replication going over https.

    Have set up iis and everything seems to be ok but when I navigate to https://server/folder/replisapi.dll?diag I get the following text in the browser.

    Access Denied because of no WebSyncDiagAccess.

    The account I am using has read and execute permissions on replisapi.dll, I have checked everything I can think of and have searched and searched but can not find any reference to "Access Denied because of no WebSyncDiagAccess." anywhere.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Denton

    Verify the account has Read, Read & Execute, and List Folder Contents permissions on the folder that contains replisapi.dll and that the account is a member of IIS_IUSRS group.

    Thanks for your reply.

    Yes account has read, read & execute, List Folder Contents permissions and is a member of IIS_IUSRS.

    I have been over Configure IIS 7 for Web Synchronization a dozen times. As far as I can see I have each step correct.

    After running into the same problem, just thought I'd point out what resolved in the issue in my case. Make sure you're using the credentials of an administrator user when calling https://<server>/<path>/replisapi.dll?diag , and not the user you may have just created when following the instructions.
