Can't rename/delete shared file

I have a file that is shared between 2 folders. I was trying to rename it but sourcegear came up with the following error - ] An exception was encountered during the transaction. Exception: Server was unable to process request. ---> Error in the application. at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall)
at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] parameters)
at VaultClientNetLib.ClientService.VaultService.BeginTx(Int32 nRepID, String strComment, VaultRequestItem[]& requests, String& strTxID)
at VaultClientNetLib.VaultConnection.BeginTx(Int32 nRepID, VaultRequestItem[]& requests, String& strTxID, String comment)
at VaultClientOperationsLib.ClientInstance.Commit(ChangeSetItemColl givenItems, Boolean keepCheckedOut, Boolean removeLocalCopy, Boolean bIsImport, DateTime dateImport, Int32 nUserIDImport, Int64& nRevID)

When I looked at the link status of the file it shows up as being shared into a folder that dosn't actually exist. This seems to be whats causing the problem. I have tried deleting the file but I get the same error. Can anyone tell me:
1) How a file can get shared into a location that dosn't exist and
2) how I can fix it?

Thanks

What version of Vault are you using?

Have you checked your history on that file and the folder involved so you know what's been happening to them?

Read this post and give restarting IIS a try and let me know what happens: http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic ... c17d7df50c
