wordpress in a sub folder /blog gives 404 not found error

I have read previous threads about installing a separate application within a subfolder, but I did not find a solution that worked.

This is a short term requirement until we implement and migrate content to an umbraco blog.

Using Umbrac 7.4.3 I have added /blog/ and /blog to the web.config

and the blog folder is setup as its own application.

When I browse to mysite.com/blog I get redirected to our sites 404 page mysite.com/500.aspx?aspxerrorpath=/blog

Enabling Failed Request logs in IIS, I get the details as below: If anyone has this working with version 7 - would appreciate any further tips.

Have you added the path to <add key="umbracoReservedPaths" in the web.config? Is your site configured to run php?

Yes I added path to umbracoReservedPaths and site is configured to run php.
```
<add key="umbracoReservedPaths" value="~/umbraco,~/install/,~/blog/,~/blog" />
```
If I set the site root of website to the /blog folder the wordpress site runs fine.

The detailed error for this mysite.com/blog/ page specifies an assembly problem with the web.config file in the parent Umbraco root folder. Umbraco site root = C:\www\mysite.com\cw-cms Wordpress site root = C:\www\mysite.com\cw-cms\blog

However I get no error browsing pages on the Umbraco site.

Server Error in '/blog' Application.

Turned out to be a simple permission problem with the Blog subfolder running as a separate iis application. fixing the permissions resolved the problem.

Thanks
