Trouble on creating a new web project - UNC share does not exist or you do not have access

Hello,

While I tried to create a new web project in VS.NET, I got the following
error message:
"Unable to create Web project 'Portal'. The UNC share
'E:\Project\Portal\Src\Web' does not exist or you do not have access."

My server's OS is Windows 2000 Server. My steps are:
In IIS:
1. create a virtual directory 'Portal'. Its local directory is
'E:\Project\Portal\Src\Web'.

In VS.NET:
2. in 'Add New Project' dialog box, select the followings and click 'OK'
button.
Project Types: Visual C# Projects
Templates: New Project In Existing Folder
Name: Portal

3. in 'Create a New Project in an Existing Folder' dialog box, input the
following and click 'OK' button.
Folder location: http://localhost/Portal

4. And then, VS.NET tell me the error message:
"Unable to create Web project 'Portal'. The UNC share
'E:\Project\Portal\Src\Web' does not exist or you do not have access."

Can you help me to resolve the problem? I have tried for many days.

Thank you very much,
SimonFrom your description, this seems to be the problem:

Troubles in .cs compile with unc type oledb connections strings..

I have an .cs file I need to compile with csc.exe for codebehind
access (no VS.NET). Trouble is that my oledb connection needs to use
a unc type path.. when I use the unc path in conn I get
escape sequence errors from csc.exe.. so I tried a static
mapped drive with reversed \ / from a google I found. The
.cs compiles but the conn doesn't work.. so if I can find
a method to get unc style conn to compile, I think I would be
golden. It's a known working oledb conn used all over the place
in standard asp and aspx files.. any clues into getting the
escape sequences corrected would be appreciated.. here
is what the conn would looks like of the .cs
"Provider=Advantage OLE DB Provider; Data Source=\\server\path\dir; ServerTy
pe=ADS_REMOTE_SERVER;
TableType=ADS_CDX;FilterOptions=RESPECT_
WHEN_COUNTING;"
Thanks, BobIn a C# string, backslashes are escape characters. To escape a backslash,
escape it with a backslash.
