    My development environment has WFE and DB service running in a single server.

    I develop my SPJobDefinition with VS2008 & WSPBuilder in the server.

    However, My SPJob always throws out a exception like this: "Access Denied" within its method Execute.

    The code in my Execute method of SPJob is just like this:

    SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges (delegate(){



using(SPSite site = new SPSite("http://myserver"))

{



using(SPWeb web = site.RootWeb)

{

    SPList list = web.Lists["Test"];//Here it will throwes out a error "Access Denied"

}

}



});

    When i comment the code "SPList list = web.Lists["Test"]",it works fine.

    Anybody can tell me how to solve it?

    PS: My Windows Sharepoint Timer is running with local system account.

    I'm not TOO sure about this answer, so test it out:

    1. Because it's running in the job service, you may not need to RunWithElevated... remove that block and see if it runs. 

    If not, try #2 (using your existing code):

    2. In SharePoint Central Admin, change the account that runs the job service. Make it a farm admin.
