I am trying to programmatically access files in a Sharepoint 2001
document library using Frontpage Server Extensions. According to the
documentation this should be possible, but it fails with the error
message "The folder that would hold URL <subwebname> does not exist on
the server." I searched a bit on the net and found
http://www.it-faq.pl/data/misc1/EN-US/294/312.htm where it is stated
that one can use IFS to make Frontpage Server Extensions get access to
Microsoft Web Storage System on drive M. I tried to do as suggested,
but I get the same error message. After some more searching I found
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...ontpageext.asp,
where it is said that in addition to the above I need to enable
Frontpage Extensions. The way to do this is to create a new virtual
directory FPApps with local path "M:\localhost\SharePoint Portal
Server\Applications". This works fine. Then I am supposed to Configure
Server Extensions for this virtual directory. When trying to follow the
description to do this, I get the error 'Cannot open file "service.lck"
for writing". And then I am basically stuck. I have been searching a
bit to resolve this error also, and the only suggestion I found was to
try to simply delete this file. I tried that, but the error persisted.
I also tried to change permissions on the virtual directory where this
file is situated (_vti_pvt), but to no avail.
Does anybody have any idea how I can resolve this problem?
