Event ID 2264 – The directory for caching compressed content is invalid

Question : Event ID 2264 – The directory for caching compressed content <directory name> is invalid

Newly configured Windows 2008 Enterprise x64 server.  Have Exchange setup but nothing else.  System log is clean but I have a warning that occurs every 60 minutes in the app log for IIS.  it says the directory used for compressing content is invalid.  The “DefaultAppPool” directory was not there.  I think that would definitely cause problems, so,  I created the directory.  An hour later the error reappears and the directory (I created) is gone.  I create it again and add NETWORK SERVICE in the full permissions list.  I read that this compression process runs under NETWORK SERVICE.  An hour later, no joy.  I’m out of ideas at the moment and no amount of Googling is getting me to the promised land.  Anyone able to be my hero tonight and solve this one?   Here’s the full event:

Solution: Event ID 2264 – The directory for caching compressed content <directory name> is invalid

No solution provided here and none ever found elsewhere.  We had some other odd behavior so our solution was to rebuild the server.  That obviously solved the problem.
