I'm trying to create a directory on the web server with a
vb.net code:
....
Dim dirName As String = "w:\filepath\im ages"
If Not Directory.Exist s(dirName) Then
Directory.Creat eDirectory(dirN ame)
Label1.Text = "Directory created"
Else
Label1.Text = "Directory exists"
End If
....
And I'm getting an exception:
Could not find a part of the path "w:\".
Exception Details: System.IO.Direc toryNotFoundExc eption:
Could not find a part of the path "w:\".
When I run it with "w:\filepat h\" it says "Directory
exists". Only when I want to create a new directory the
exception occurs. The ASP.NET user has all rights on that
drive, and there would be another exception
like ... "access to path denied".
Does anyone knows what is going on here and what does it
mean "could not find a part of the path"?
I can run this code locally and it works fine, the problem
is only at my webservers host computer.

Matthias

Creating a subfolder within my ASP.NET application folder fails with the
above error, but only at my hosting provider. The command:
Directory.CreateDirectory(path)
Path is set to 'D:\appfolder\test2'. ASPNET has full control on the
application folder.
Any ideas why this fails?
