There may be several reasons out of which
1.) check whether the name of the IIS is Correct i mean NO special Characters.
2.) if you have already created the IIS virtual directory and deleted and again created with same name or different name then check the component and delete existing and create new one with new components.
3.) check if the path given is correct.
try these and if problem exists then please attach the full log.
