Re: Server error: Cannot create folder W3SVC104



Joe:
I have a few sites where the stats are kept in the web site in a folder
called stats. What I do when I need to publish the web down to my PC is
this:

1. Open the live web site.
2. Navigate to the stats folder.
3. Mark as many files as I can as 'Do not publish'.
4. Publish the live site down to my PC - it should go much quicker without
the stats.
5. When the publish is done, close the live site.
6. Open the local site and navigate to the stats folder.
7. Right-click on the stats folder and choose 'Convert to Web'. This will
make the stats folder a subweb of your local web site. As long as you don't
publish using the publish subwebs options, it will not try to publish the
stats info back to your live site.

HTH,

Folder like W3SVC104 are usually your server log
- if you have it in your local copy delete it
- if not contact your host

Stefan:

THANK YOU. That solved the problem -- I deleted the W3SVC104 folder from
my computer and the site published perfectly -- publishing took almost 3
hours as it published the entire site.

Now, let me ask you another question: Should there be a stats folder on
my computer?

I use MS FP 2003 to maintain five web sites. Last year, everything I
owned was destroyed in Hurricane Katrina. A few months ago I purchased a
new computer and have been installing software on it -- I lost all my
original application disks, also.

After installing MS FP 2003, I did not have copies of my web sites --
so -- I opened the remote site in MS FP and published from the remote
site to my computer. As a result, I have a stats folder for each web site
on my computer. I checked and one of them has 48 files and takes up 18 MB
of disk space.

Should these stats folders be on my computer, or, should I delete them and
leave them on the remote server?

Thanks.
