At work, we're using a Windows Server 2008 R2 VM as our build server. At the end of the build process for any of our projects, we copy the packaged deployment files to a folder on the server where they'll be deployed. (This is done in a batch command by a service account.)
For most of our projects, which deploy to a Windows Server 2008 R2 VM, this step goes swimmingly. But for one project, which deploys to a Windows Server 2003 R2 VM which resides in a different domain on our network, the .zip files return "Access is denied" and don't copy, though all of the other files copy correctly.
Our sysadmins say they haven't prevented this in group policy or by other means.
If I'm logged in the build server as myself and run the copy in the command window, I can't copy the .zip files over either, so it's not just a matter of the service account's permissions.
If I log into the 2003 server and then copy from the build server to the 2003 server, using the command window, it works, whether I run as myself or as our service account.
Only .zip files cause the "Access is denied" problem. Even a (fake) .exe file copies correctly.
All of our other projects have .zip files, and they copy to their 2008 R2 server correctly.
Is there a way I can get the Windows Server 2003 R2 VM to accept .zip files copied from our build server?
