Try enabling parent paths - right click the site representing your app in
IIS, select properties, select the Home Directory/Virtual Dir tab, click the
Configuration button, select the App Options tab and select the Enable
Parent Paths box. These instructions are for 2000 so adjust as necessary for
2003 - pretty similar though.
