Access denied issue with windows server 2008r2. i have given full permissions to both iis_wpg, network services but it is throwing access denied error?

Dear All, I am facing an issue with folder permissions with windows2008 r2 server. I have two windows2008 r2 servers with me. I have hosted my asp.net application in server1 and gave full permissions to C:\Upload folder for both IIS_WPG and Network Services . it is working fine in server1. I have copied the same application into the second server and assigned all the folder permissions that I have given in server1 to the server2 also. but while i am trying to upload files from server2 its throwing access denied error. I have tried with full access to everyone it is working fine. but I could not give everyone in live server. Kindly help me to solve the issue.

Ideally it should be working if you have given IIS_WPG the rights, are you using any host entries ? You can check if the worker process is created for the same server , same Application Pool? 

Another mention , by any chance is "C:\Upload Folder" hosted as virtual directory in the second server?

I have noticed one difference.. In my secound server IIS_IUSRS does not containg any application pool identity in it. but it is in server1. is there any way to bring application pool identity inside IIS_IUSR
