"Cannot creat folder" error

I am getting a "Server error: Cannot create folder xyz" when I try to
publish from my PC to my site. It happens to be a sub-folder in an image
folder. The publishing then stops. I had been editing this site "live" on
the server, but just published it back to my hard drive tonight, so I could
edit files locally before uploading. This error then occurred. What is
causing this?

It happened the second time I tried to upload/publish. The first time, a
dialog box asking if I wanted to delete certain files that weren't on the
destination site, and I answered YES TO ALL. Maybe I shouldn't have? I am
now wondering why there would have been files out of whack, since as I
mentioned, I just published back to my hard drive tonight and ostensibly,
the sites should have been identical. Sorry for rambling.

Local path =
c:\documents and settings\ed\my documents\websites\swimaqua\images\....

and it is the first subfolder in the Images folder of this site on my PC.
For a test, I moved the offending subfolder, but then the NEXT folder in
line [in the Images folder] was the one mentioned when the "cannot create
folder" error occurred. Is this a problem with my server/host company? The
fact that the next folder in line to be published couldn't either...doesn't
seem server wants to create ANY folder at this point!!

What I meant was; you're creating the folder, or moving it, from within FP - not with Windows Explorer right?

Yes, I am doing everything from within FP, using its Publish function.

Try creating a folder of identical name directly on the server, then publish up to the server, see what happens.

I've never run into this problem with creating folders...although I have with folders/files that I have copied down and tried to re-publish back up...namely: stat folders/files (which I guess are not modifiable or something).

Contact your host and ask them to run a check on the extensions for your account. They could be out
of server temp space.
