  • [font="Verdana"]Yes, it looks like the new service account does not have access to the folders specified. Try giving the new service account full access to the folders and see what happens. I am assuming that giving full permissions will resolve your issue.[/font]

  • Granting "Full Control" on the folders, solved the issue.
