Hi,
A strange thing started happening today when I tried to copy from my local
machine to my webhost.  I've been using VS 2003 and publishing using the
"Copy Project..." menu item of the "Project" menu.  I've used this for
months without a problem.  Suddenly today, when I click the OK button on the
Copy Project dialog I get a messagebox with a title "Microsoft Development
Environment", that says "Unable to open Web project '/'.  Not Found".

I'm able to RUN the project without a problem from localhost.  I can't seem
to find anything else that's not working.  I can ftp to my webhost, so I'm
not completely stuck, but this just started happening and I can't figure it
out.

I've been working on a winforms project using VS the last few days, so I
haven't been publishing lately.  The winforms project isn't complicated and
I doubt that anything I'm doing for that project would have affected this
one.

In addition, I have an older site that I haven't touched in months, and
trying to copy that also got the same response.

The message is pretty weak, but my guess is that the Copy Project isn't
using the correct path for the source project folder.  Which in my case is
"http://localhost/XYZfolder" (XYZfolder isn't the real name).   Although,
for what I know about it, the message could be pertaining to the Destination
project  folder.

I've tried deleting the virtual directory out of IIS and recreating it, and
that didn't seem to change anything.  I've looked at all the configurations,
and options with nothing that seems to point to the missing Web project
name/path.

If anyone has an idea of what to try, I'd sure appreciate a response.

Thanks,

Bob
