I’m writing a web application that have to download user profile pictures from another web sites and store those pictures in web server. I have the downloading function working, but when I’m trying to show that picture in web browser picture is not showing up, I found that for the file request from the browser my server is giving
403 Forbidden
Is this a permission issue?
How can I serve these pictures from my application?
IIS Don’t allows to read files from the App_Data folder. An easy option store the profile pictures in some other folder.
