Virtual Directory Issue

Dear Gurus!

(WinXP Pro, VS.NET 2002(VB))

I am currently having a problem with virtual directories. When I create
directories under my VS.Net application they dint appear in IIS Manager!!
but if you try to create another with the same name it says that the name I
am using is not unique.

The directories I am creating are created using ADSI script. The reason for
this is as follows....

I have a SQL Table with a list of paths, when the .Net application fires I
am using the application on start event to read the SQL table, any virtual
dirs that dont exist with that path are created, and ones that exist are
checked to ensure the path hasn't changed if they have then they are
updated.

Has anyone done this before? and have you encountered these issues???

Thank you in advance!
Regards,
Mark.

Try recycling the app pool. Also, can you access the directory from a web browser?

Thank you. I hope this information is helpful.
