| Event Id | 101 |
| Source | W3SVC |
| Description | The server was unable to add the virtual root "/" for the directory "path" because of the following error: The system cannot find the path specified. The data is the error. |
| Event Information | CAUSE: The World Wide Web Publishing service could not create a virtual root for the IIS Virtual Root resource. The directory path may have been deleted.
RESOLUTION: Re-create or restore the directory and contents. Check the resource properties for the IIS Virtual Root resource and ensure that the path is correct. This problem may occur if you had an IIS Virtual Root resource defined and then uninstalled Microsoft Cluster Server without first deleting the resource. In this case, you may evaluate and change virtual root properties by using the Internet Service Manager. |
