In order for CGI processes to run, the account that starts the CGI processes (the worker process identity) must be assigned certain user rights. You can add the account as a member of the IIS_WPG group and assign the account these two necessary user rights:

  • Adjust memory quotas for a process.

  • Replace a process-level token.

For information about assigning user rights to an account on the local computer, see CGI processes do not start.
