Hi,

I'm trying to run an ASP.NET web application, but I keep getting the
following error:

Unexpected error writing metadata to file
'D:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\Temporary ASP.NET
Files\efinder\edff2360\663a57e0\egmrg-ji.dll' -- 'The directory name is
invalid. '

I have tried the following, yet they have all failed:
1) re-installing visual studio and the .net framework
2) given full permissions to the {machine_name}\ASPNET account for
the 'Temporary ASP.NET Files' folder
3) run the following commands
    *net stop iisadmin /y
    * rd /s /q E:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\Temporary
ASP.NET Files
    * E:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\aspnet_regiis -r
    * net start w3svc
4) Added the ASPNET account to the admin group

I'm not sure what else i can do, does anyone have any suggesstions?

thanks.
Ralph
