I'm trying to create a folder using the AddFolder method, and it doesn't seem to be working. How should I specify the FolderPath parameter (absolute or relative path)? It does add a row to the Folders table, but the actual folder is nowhere to be found. I'm trying to create a folder as a subfolder of the portal root.

I am running into a problem attempting this. I end up with an "Access to path 'MyNewFolder' is denied." Running it in a debug shows the actual exception is from System.UnathorizedAccessException. This behaviour is whether or not I run it with the optional "0" for insecure file system as the location.

My line of code is this:

  FileSystemUtils.AddFolder(Me.PortalSettings(), "ProjectDocuments", txtBoxProjNum.Text(), 0)

ProjectDocuments is a folder under root that has write permissions for all users as of right now, but will be limited to a group that will have write access to this module doing the work and read for all.

txtProjNum is filled with a series of numbers seperated by dashes, 000139-08024-0.

I can add the folder using the file manager just fine, but I need to create a single button sub that will read this project number and create a role (working) followed by a series of folders (stuck on) assign permissions to those folders, and then create a documents module that will eventually be populted by the end-user using the subfolders created by this module. Until I get the folders created I will not really be able to get the permissions worked on...

I have been able to run foldercontroller.addfolder and get the folder listed in the database, but once it tries to sync and realizes the physical folder is not there it dissappears from the database.

I have run the module logged in as host, or not logged in at all with the same results.

Ideas?

However, reviewing the code of the method AddFolder(), I realized that to create the folder in the file system, never concatenate the physical path of the portal, and try to create in the root of the server ... ah well then its works on this way: FileSystemUtils.AddFolder(Me.Portal, Me.Portal.HomeDirectoryMapPath + If(Me.Portal.HomeDirectoryMapPath.EndsWith("\"), "", "\") + "MyFolder", "NewFolder",0) I hope itls helpsto anybody..... regards...
