Error installing ASP.NET application to Port other than 80

I've created an ASP.NET installer using Visual Studio's "Web Setup Project"
template. I'm installing to Windows 2000 Server (IIS 5). If I configure the
default web site to a port other than 80, then enter that port during
installation, I get the following error when I click Next:

"The folder path '?' contains an invalid character."

Furthermore, if you continue the installation, none of the folders under
C:\Inetpub\wwwr oot\myapp get created.

However, if I configure another web site at Port 80 and run the installer
again or if I try the same installation procedure under Windows 2003 Server,
everything works fine. I've tried this on mulitple PCs with the same results.

Anyone seen this problem or have any suggestions on solving it?

Thanks! Brian
