SYMPTOMS
When you add a new discussion Web wizard to the current Web, the files of the first discussion Web are overwritten.
CAUSE
The discussion Web wizard creates the names of the pages using an algorithm that uses the name of the discussion group entered in the wizard. If both of your discussion webs have similar names, the files of the first discussion Web may be overwritten. This problem will occur only if both discussion wizards are created in the same Web.
RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods.
Method 1
Create your second discussion wizard in a separate sub-Web. This will remove all possibility of conflict.
Method 2
If you want both discussion wizards to reside in the same Web, make sure that the first four characters of each discussion group are unique. To do this, make sure that either the first four characters of the discussion title are different, or make sure that the title contains two or more words separated by spaces.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
