How do I resolve the synciwam.vbs error 1B6?
I am trying to migrate a website from Windows 2000 to Win2k3 using the IIS 6 Migration Tool. I am getting a bunch of 404s per content. A popular theory is that my IWAM account is out of sync with the IIS metabase and is running sync to fix it. However, I am getting this 1B6 error and the only link I have not followed on google (this is obvious to me) is Expert Exchange ...
Here's the results of the script running:
C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript synciwam.vbs -v

I have never answered this question, but I solved my problem. I'm not even sure if this is related to the IWAM account or not.
Scenario:
Moving from Win2k / IIS5 to Win2k3 / IIS6 A bunch of ASP and ASP.NET 1.1 desktop applications Using the IIS 6 Migration Toolkit
Only images are available. Not htm files, not asp.
Solution: I've seen a bunch of posts talking about dynamic content and allowing it in extensions (and I did). There are still no cubes.
I thought I needed to enable SSI because one of the htm files I was looking at includes.
That being said, I may have introduced a new file association for .htm in ssi.dll
Remove that mapping and I started serving htm pages.
Problem 2: ASP pages are not displayed. It turns out (I think) that the migration tool has the path to asp.dll as WINNT \ System32 and that the path is invalid in Windows 2003, it must be WINDOWS \ System32
