When you try to administer IIS
on a computer running Windows 2000 IIS 5.x/ Windows 2003 IIS 6.0
from a computer running Windows NT 4.0 with IIS 4.0 or vice versa,
this error message will occur due to the metabase schema
difference.
You can connect to the remote
IIS Server using the Connect feature in ARKIIS.
ARKIIS connects to the IIS
machine using the currently logged on user context. ARKIIS expects
the currently logged on user to have administrative privileges in
the target IIS Server to connect and generate the reports.
Using ARKIIS Schedule feature,
a scheduled task can be created and made to run in a user context
which has administrative privileges on the remote machine. You may
print/export the output to a CSV/MDB/HTML file.
ARKIIS generates an error log
file in the application path "C:\Program Files\ARKIIS\Log"
The error log file tends to
become large in size over a period of time especially if the
application meets with frequent error conditions. The application
does an "append" to the error log each time it runs.
This is required for diagnostic purposes during trouble shooting.
You may delete the error log file periodically.
The message will appear when
you are trying to connect to IIS server whose IIS version is other
than 6.0. The selected report is applicable for IIS 6.0 only.
The Log Analysis tool in ARKIIS
parses the log files under the specified log file directory of the
Web sites and FTP sites. This tool requires log files to be
available and logging to be enabled to generate log files. The
Enable Logging option and the Log file directory for each Web and
FTP site can be modified in property sheet of the Web / FTP site
through IIS MMC.
For example, default logfile path is
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\Logfiles"
