asp.net deployment project ERROR: Unable to build folder named

I'm attempting to build an MSI to deploy my ASP.NET Web site with a Visual
Studio .NET 2003 deployment project (vdproj). When I build the deployment
project, it gives an error message like the following:

ERROR: Unable to build folder named '<folder name>'

I have found several posts on the Internet, and some suggested that it is
caused by duplicated folder names in the project structure even those folders
are under different foldes.

Is there a way or a patch to fix this problem? I can't change those folders.

Thanks,

Jeffrey

In your deployment project right-click and remove the Localised
Resources (usually includes the problem folder, such as Images). Then
add it again, and the deployment project will build.

I think (in my case at least) when the contents of the images folder
changed the deployment project tried to add a it as a new folder,
duplicating the foldername and causing an error. If you remove
localised resources and add it again it seems to grab all the latest
folders (and their contents, without duplication).

To add local resources: right-click deployment project, Add, Project
Output, then in the list select Localized Resources and (Active)
configuration.

hope it helps

Or if that doesn't work simply add the folders manually as web folders
to your Deployment project. To do that, right-click on your deployment
project, select view, file system, then create your folder(s) inside
the root of the web application folder.
