It turns out the IIS Anonymous Authentication Credentials were incorrect. Once we reset the Anonymous account and password the Access Denied messages went away.
1. Open IIS Manager
2. click on the server name
3. Double click authentication
4. Right click on "Anonymous Authentication" and choose "Edit"
5. Set the account and password
6. IISRESET

Hi Inderjeet,
Thanks for your response
1) The code is already in
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate{ [code] })2) This too did not work

4) Checked the logs also but could not find the error
Anyways thanks for your reply,really appreciate it !
What is more surprising is that I did everything from the MSDN post yet it gave me error
