You receive a "Web Access Failed" error message when you create an MCMS 2002 Web application by using Visual Studio .NET

SYMPTOMS

When Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server (SPS) 2003, Microsoft Content Management Server (MCMS) 2002, Microsoft Content Management Server 2002 Connector for SharePoint Technologies, and Microsoft Visual Studio .NET are installed on the same computer, you receive the following error messages when you try to create a new MCMS 2002 Web project in the Visual Studio .NET IDE:
Web Access Failed
The default Web access mode for this project is set to file share, but the project folder at http://localhost/CmsWebApplication1 cannot opened with the path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\CmsWebApplication1'. The error returned was:
Unable to create Web project 'CmsApplication1'
The file path 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\CmsApplication1' does not correspond to the URL 'http://localhost/CmsWebApplication1'. These two need to map to the same server location.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because of a problem between the SPS 2003 Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services Internet Services API (ISAPI) filter and the way Visual Studio .NET creates the Web project on the Web server.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, follow these steps:
  1. Use MCMS Site Manager to create a channel that is named CmsWebApplication1. You will map the Web application to this channel.
  2. Run the exclusion tool (Excludecms.exe). The exclusion tool excludes all top-level channels in MCMS from SPS. This tool resides in the following folder:
    C:\Program Files\MCMS Connector for SharePoint Technologies\WSS\Bin
  3. Create a new MCMS Web project.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
