Problem
You see the following error appear irregularly in the SharePoint 2010 server Application log:
The SharePoint Server 2010 installation creates an additional site, SITE_2. This site can be seen in IIS Manager. It will create further such sites on removing SharePoint 2010 and subsequently installing it again without removing the SITE_2 website. Thus, you may see a SITE_2, SITE_3, etc.
Solution
These sites can be safely removed using IIS Manager. Restart IIS after removing these sites.
