Error message when accessing a VF page through Sites

I'm building an app in where, as part of its core functionality, needs to allow remote users that don't work for our company to login to it.  I'm thinking of doing this through Sites because it seems much more secure to do it that way rather than provide them an actual login for our environment (plus we would have to pay for that for each user of the program).  

However, when I try and browse the URL that I've created, it gives me the below error:

URL:  http://sandbox-aimco-global.cs20.force.com/vencorr

Error:  Error message

How am I to get around this?

Same thing.  It would appear that you can't have anything but alphanumeric characters for the suffix.

ERROR:  Error: The Default Web Address must be alphanumeric

When I try adding "apex/vfpagename" (AKA "apex/Vencorr_Orig_Inq_CSA") as the Site suffix I get the following error:

Error: The Default Web Address must be alphanumeric.

Hey Matt,

No Idea What's Wrong ? But You can try  changeing visualforce page label and name like VebcorrOrigIndCSA

Use Url :  http://sandbox-aimco-global.cs20.force.com/apex/VebcorrOrigIndCSA

If I remvoe the "/apex/" section then it saves fine, will that work or is there some reason the "apex" part needs to be in there in your estimation?
