I get exceptions when running the Power script shell (v1.0) on Windows Server 2008 (32 bit).
It uses ADSI to search for a virtual directory before deleting it.
I get the following exception:
Exception calling "Find" with "2" argument(s): "Exception from HRESULT: 0x80005008"
At line:1 char:29
+ $iisMgr.psbase.children.find <<<< ("MyVirtualDir", $iisMgr.psbase.SchemaClassName)
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : DotNetMethodException
This is the code:
$vDirPath = "IIS://localhost/W3SVC/1/Root"
$iisMgr = [adsi]$vDirPath
$iisMgr.psbase.children.find("MyVirtualDir", $iisMgr.psbase.SchemaClassName)
(edit): from several blogs, I read that the IIS6 compatibility role service must be enabled in order to install the ADSI provider, and I already enabled it, still having this exception ...
