This would be the case if we were specifying the CspProviderFlags.UseMachineKeyStore flag in the RSACryptoServiceProvider constructor that accepts a CspParameters. By default, we try to use the user key store, but because the user profile for the ASPNET account is probably not loaded in this case, this will fail. Using the machine key store would work provided ASPNET has access to the directory below.
