application root

Here is an error message I received when tried to create new web project with C# for .NET
The Web was created successfully, but an error occured when trying to contfigure the application root for this Web
Web projects may not operate correctly without an application root. The returned arror was
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

Here is my environment
IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 Server. I'am an administrator and have all neccessary rights (at list, I think so) to all local resources

Any ideas would be very appreciated
thanks

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.
