SYMPTOMS
If you try to place the URL for a Microsoft Access Workflow Designer solution on a server other than where the database resides, you may receive the following error message:

Invalid URL 'http:// / '. The team web site must be created on the same server as the database.



CAUSE
The team web site and the database are not on the same server.



RESOLUTION
Specify a URL for the team web site that is on the same server where the database resides.



Steps to Reproduce the Behavior

 * 1) Either upsize a database to Microsoft SQL Server, or create a new database in Microsoft SQL Server.
 * 2) Create a Microsoft Access project (.adp) for the database that you created in Step 1.
 * 3) Start Access Workflow Designer. Begin registering the database.
 * 4) On the Registration Information page, specify the Solution name and the Web URL. For the Web URL, specify a different server name than the server name displayed in the Solution name. For example, if the Solution name is serverABC, the default Web URL is http://serverABC/.
 * 5) Click Next. Note that you receive the error message mentioned in the "Symptoms" section.
