Creating new Web on SharePoint server
-
Hi all, I'm playing around with Microsoft SharePoint (2.0) and I'm going through some examples in the SDK. I'm at a step which describes using Visual Studio .NET to create a new Web application on the SP server side. I've run into a problem which doesn't seem to be very well covered on the net.
Unable to create the web "http://server/_layouts/SPTest". Server error: The folder "_layouts/SPTest" is reserved for use by the Web server. A Web may not be created under this URL.
I'm running Windows XP and attempting to connect to the SP server, which is a separate Windows 2003 machine. I've had a look at this link as it describes my problem, but in my case I don't get any errors in the event log both on the server and client side. So I'm guessing the solution will be somewhat different. Has anyone encountered this? How do I solve this problem? Thanks in advance, Sam
