A possible cause of this error is insufficient access rights to perform the operation. You can manually configure the application root using the Intrnet Services Manager

Re:application root

Hard to say why it had the problem, but creating an application root is

fairly easy. Just open your IIS Admin snap-in in Administrative tools, find

the web site, right-click it and select "Properties" from the context menu.

Then, in the Home Directory tab, click the "Create" button for the

Application Name field.
