FP2000: Check Server Extensions Reports Content Folder Not Found

When you perform a Check Server Extensions, the following error message occurs: where C:\Inetpub\Wwwroot\Web is the location of the missing folder; this may be different for you.

This problem may be caused by one of the following:

If you suspect that first cause above is the reason for the error message, determine if the Web referenced in the Check Server Extensions is off of the root Web or if it is a nested subweb. For example: Based on whether the Web referenced in the error message is a subweb of the root or a subweb of another subweb (nested subweb), you will need to edit a configuration file to remove the listing for the non existent Web.

For a subweb off of the root Web:

Use the Windows NT Explorer or UNIX command prompt and go to the content location of the root Web. In the content area of the root Web, (parent directory to the subweb), you will find the _vti_pvt folder. In this folder, the Services.cnf file is located. Open the file in a text editor such as Notepad to view a list of Webs for this virtual server. Remove the listing for the Subweb that was identified by the error message and save the file. For example:

For a nested subweb:

Use the Windows NT Explorer or UNIX command prompt and go to the content location of the partent subweb. In the content area of the parent subweb, locate the _vti_pvt folder. Open the Services.cnf file in a text editor such as Notepadto view a list of Webs that reside below the subweb. Remove the listing for the subweb that was identified by the Check Server Extensions and save the file. For example:Note: You cannot edit this file to create new subwebs or add subwebs. Also, after you remove the listing for the subweb, you may need to remove the virtual directory listings in the Web server that referenced the subweb (if any exist).
