Problem

When Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) is enabled for use with Web Client and when browsing to a site using Chrome, the site prompts you for logon credentials and, after entering valid credentials, denies access to the site.

Solution

To avoid this issue, you must set the useAppPoolCredentials property to True on the SPFAuthentication virtual directory using Windows IIS Manager.

  1. Open IIS Manager on the server that hosts the SmartPlant Foundation Server software.

  2. Select the SPFAuthentication virtual directory from the tree view and double-click Configuration Editor.

  3. From the Section drop-down list, select system.webServer > security > authentication > windowsAuthentication.

  4. Set the useAppPoolCredentials property to True.

  5. Recycle the application pool.
