Hi,
IIS is not Physically Creating Virtual Directory but create in IIS and map
to source folder When I am creating in IIS, I am administrator in my system.
What may be possible cause of this.
I am using IIS 5.1 and Operating System is Win XP Service Pack 2.
Regards,
Vivek
That is by design.
If you want a real directory, make one.
Virtual directories don't exist on the file system.

IIS create a folder in your system C:\Inetpub\wwwroot location
every time when you create a virtual directory in IIS and thats location
from where IIS will look for Web project. Note I am using IIS v5 not IIS 6.
and Visual Studio 2003.
But I am not understanding whats the proble, Why its not creatign physical
folder for me.
Thanks for any suggesttion, looking for possible resolutions.
Regards,
Vivek

When you create a virtual directory in IIS Manager it does not create a
physical folder. It only maps the virtual directory to an existing folder.
So what you observe is how it is supposed to work.

No actually at run time also when we open some web project which we have not
originally created, If virtual dir exist it asked us to change some other
name.
If we crate a new web project it create a physical folder (vir dir) for us.

"we open some web project"
Where do you do this? Not in IIS Manager as far as i can understand.
I don't understand what you are doing, and where you are doing it. Can you
please describe in simple steps so we can understand?

What you describe is a behavior of the tool that you are using to open
a web project and has nothing to do with IIS. For example, Visual
Studio when properly configured can create web applications and
physical folders on IIS. However, IIS is not going to create physical
directories for virtual directories -- that would defeat the point of
a virtual directory, doesn't it?
Can you please clearly describe what you are doing -- step by step --
because what you are saying is very different from your original
question and you have lost everyone who is trying to help you.
