I am trying to create a virtual directory on one of our IIS servers and am naming it "docs". I have set it up with no problem on another IIS server, but on this particular server it creates fine, but is given the name of "docs2". When I try to rename it I get an error message saying that "docs" already exists, but I cannot find it anywhere. Where else can I look to find this phantom "docs" folder and how can I get rid of it?
 
IIS 5 Change the way the save each FTP Site and its own virtual directories, that is because IIS 4 sabe everything on a file.

I think you should check into the registry (searching with 'DOC' key) and see what happend.

Another option is to check into all IIS Folder (Inetpub). This should help also.

If you do not found anything with the name you looking for, i truly think you are in a big problem :)
