In certain scenarios users may receive an Error -30000 message when viewing images through the PaperVision Enterprise website. This may be a result of the anonymous account having all the necessary permissions and rights; but the images are stored at a different location from the Web Server.

This type of configuration requires that the “ASP.NET Impersonation” option be enabled for IIS versions 7.5 and higher.
