I was implementing Azure file share on my windows server (2012R2, IIS 8.5,SMB3.0). The drive is getting mounted, but when I am creating a virtual directory in IIS FTP Site its failing while Authorizing to the FileShare with below error:

**"Path might not exist and could not be verified."**

All other details look correct and verified several times. The same set of steps are working well in Windows Server 2016, IIS 10.

So just thinking if there is something specific needs to be done with Win2012R2.

Thanks.

About some common problems that might occur when you try to connect to and access Server Message Block (SMB) Azure file shares from Windows or Linux clients, have you checked this article on this topic? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/azure-storage/files/connectivity/files-troubleshoot-smb-connectivity?tabs=windows

From the error message, the problem may be related to permission settings, you can try checking it. It would be helpful to locate and solve the problem if you can provide more error information, such as the error status code and detailed error message.

Below are the steps being followed: ``` 1. Created a local user with the same name as AzureStorage account and the storage Key as password. 2. Added the user to IIS_IUSRS group 3. Created an application pool with the same name as the StorageAccount details. 4. Created a virtual directory pointing to the UNC path of the Fileshare (\\storageaccntname.FQDN) ``` ``` Blogs Followed: --------------- blogs.iis.net/davidso/azurefile techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/iis-support-blog/… ```
