I have created a small web app in VS 2005. I want to publish it to a sub domain. So we're clear, this is www.xxx.yyy.com, where it will go into xxx

The site runs just fine locally (local host). When I try to publish it, the status bar in VS says Publish started, then Publish failed.

Today, I get no dialog box at all. Yesterday I got this:

Unable to open the Web'http://xxx.yyy.com'. An error occurred accessing your sharepoint services site files. Authors - If authoring against a Web server, please contact the Webmaster for this server's Web site. Webmasters - please see the searver's application event log for more details.

I checked with my new ISP and this is their response:

When using extensions you can not publish directly to the subdomain, you must do so via a subweb of the main domain. Please consult your documentation for details on creating subwebs.


I have no idea what this means much less how to find the documentation to resolve it.

Can I get an assist here? Thanks!!!!!
