I keep getting the error:
"Cannot set the application root for this Web application"

"The Web application was successfully copied"

when publishing a web from visual interdev 6.0 to an iis 5.0 w2k
server.

I looked at the one MSDN article i could find and it didn't help much.
Talked about re-creating TEMP directories but this didn't resolve the
issue. Any ideas?

Hello

The error message indicates a possible problem with security. I found this
article on the Microsoft Knowledge Base.
