Guest me Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Hi All... I've been trying to get a custom MMC to work on Windows Vista Business Edition. The MMC contains a snap-in for IIS 6.0 Manager for administration of some of my web servers. All other snap-ins work execept for this one. The error that I get is "MMC could not create the snap-in". Any ideas as to why this does not work (and a possible solution) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Marc Hoffman Quote
Guest richie0505 Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 Run MSCONFIG | click Tools Tab | click Disable UAC | click Launch button | Reboot. You can now add your snap-in and it should work. You can also follow the steps above and choose to Enable UAC after you have the snap-in installed. -- richie0505 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ richie0505's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=29162 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=797540 http://forums.techarena.in Quote
Guest me Posted August 9, 2007 Posted August 9, 2007 HI... Thanks for replying. Unfortunately, this did not work. One point that I may not have made clear was that the IIS snap-in was already added to my custom MMC file. When I click the IIS portion in the Console Root, I get the error of "...could not create the snap-in..." After trying your suggestion, I'm still not able to use the IIS 6 Manager snap-in. Could the fact that the Snap-in is already present in my Custom MMC file be the problem? Thanks!

Guest Sandeep Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 This shouldn't be the problem. This error might occur when there is some problem initializing snap in. Are you getting any detailed error message? Posting this to microsoft.public.management.mmc newsgroup might help.

Guest BrijeshBalan Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 In order to fix the error that appears while taking IIS mmc you need to register a DLL (inetmgr.dll). You can make use of the following URL to have a better idea. http://kb.bobcares.com/kb/?View=entry&EntryID=354 -- BrijeshBalan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BrijeshBalan's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/member.php?userid=47874 View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/showthread.php?t=797540 http://forums.techarena.in Quote
