Can anyone help me? Here's the error: Unable to create WebApplication1. The
file path: 'C\inetpub\wwwroot\webapplication1' does not correspond to
Http://localhost/webapplication1.....access denied
It seems like the inetpub\wwwroot path is not mapping to the localhost
location correctly.

Is this in Visual Studio .NET 2003, by any chance?
If so, try KB Article 306005

I realize that your error message is not identical to that cited in the
article, but the remapping cures a lot of problems like yours.

Thanks trying, pvdg42, but it didn't work. I originally wrote my web app in
VS 2003. We upgraded to 2005 but my app it did not port well. Everything
worked except one thing. I spent a week trying to figure it out (it was an
HTML problem) but could not do it. I've got time now, I'll go back to 2005
and try to work my problem out. Maybe I can pick your brains next
week...Thanks anyway, Al
