IIS Manager Snap-in is empty on your SharePoint Server 2007

If you open IIS manager snap-in on any of your SharePoint servers and it  appears to be blank, the Administrator might not like to see that.


However, Microsoft has confirmed this as a problem and has provided a hotfix for it. This problem can occur for any process that uses ADSI (Active Directory Service Interfaces) to access IIS.


Now there is a temporary fix - An iisreset

Or permanent fix - Install this hotfix KB946517



The hotfix should also fix these events in the event log

- Event ID 6398 
- Event ID 6482 
- Event ID 7076 

Relief :)
