For a simple and quick test, create a folder under Repository. Use it's name while running the code and see if it works for you or not.

Hope this helps.

When you say, under Documents, where exactly you are creating the folder? What I am saying is - click on Repository on top header and create a folder in it and test.

Hope this helps.

Many thanks for the input, this has solved my problem. Earlier I was trying

to create a folder within a document library for a sample site that I

created. However many thanks for your guidance.
