AX 2012: The request failed with HTTP status 403: Forbidden.

Hi,

I wanted to share one small difficulty i faced when i worked on the Enterprise Portal. I used to get the error message "The request failed with HTTP status 403: Forbidden." whenever i deploy the objects in "Managed Web Content" (AOT -> Web -> Web Content -> Managed) and "Web Modules" (AOT -> Web -> Web Modules).

I tried the following steps

1. Make sure that the user having admin permission
2. Deleted the user cache files (AUC)
3. Run the AX application as administrator

Nothing helped, finally i tried to restart the IIS then it worked. Happy.

Thanks,
Hari
