Can you provide the real paths your site is stored in? With all the dashes in this "path"

Laptop:Computer-Local Disk(C:)-Site-Cell-Ware-Pics.

it's almost impossible to see what the actual path is. In Windows Explorer, click the address bar to have Windows show the actual path.

If your site is located in C:\Site (e.g. the web.config is stored as C:\Site\web.config) then you should create a sub folder called Pics inside C:\Site so it ends up as C:\Site\Cell-Pics (since you use ~/Cell-Pics).

It seems, but I can't be sure, that your Cell-Pics folder is located at the same level as the site, and not a sub folder (and has a different name). E.g. you seem to be having:

C:\Site\Cell-Ware
C:\Site\Cell-Ware-Pics

while you should have

C:\Site\Cell-Ware
C:\Site\Cell-Ware\Cell-Pics

where Cell-Pics is a subfolder of the site.

In addition, sometimes you refer to it as Cell-Pics (in code) and sometimes as simply Pics.

Maybe you should drop all the dashes in the file names so you're not confusing yourself.

So, once again, please be specific. Things like "Yes.C:\Site which is located in my Local Disk(C:) which has my cell-ware site in it." only confuses matters. What do you mean with "which has my cell-ware site in it"? Do you mean a sub folder called cell-ware? Or do you refer to all files and folders as "the site"? Maybe you can upload a picture of your structure somehow?

If all this fails, zip up your entire site and post it on-line somewhere and then I'll have a look. Like I said, this is a one minute fix, and I think I have explained the target structure numerous times now (here, and in the book), but you seem to be missing some fundamental Windows concepts. On top of that. you're providing information I can't really work with and don't seem to understand my tips and instructions, so we need to find a way to break out of this.

Cheers,

An error has occurred: 0x80004005 Unspecified error.What could the problem be?

Hi there,

An error 0x80004005 is almost always a permissions issue. Are you running this as an account with enough permissions? And did you open the Command Prompt using its right-click menu and then choosing Run As Administrator?

BTW, if I recall correctly, earlier you said you ran into problems using the built-in server as well. If that's indeed the case, I doubt this is an IIS / setup issue, but a folder naming / site structure issue instead.

I got 6 permissions(full control,modify,read and execute,list folder contents,Read,write.) are these the correct permissions?And yes I did that but it gave me the same error message.

Hard to tell, as it's still unclear how your site is structured. I asked a number of times but you're not giving me the information I need to know to help you....
