MPTroubleshooter error

[DanMIS]

When I run the MP troubleshooter, two test fail. The logs say this:

- <Test>
- <Name xmlns="Testing MPLIST HTTP request functionality">
- <Result xmlns="Failed">
<Comment xmlns="Failed to query web site:

http://SMS-ADMIN:80/SMS_MP/.sms_aut?MPLIST

(Exception: The remote server
returned an error: (403) Forbidden.)" />
</Result>
</Name>
</Test>
- <Test>
- <Name xmlns="Testing MPCERT HTTP request functionality">
- <Result xmlns="Failed">
<Comment xmlns="Failed to query web site:

http://SMS-ADMIN:80/SMS_MP/.sms_aut?MPCERT"

/>
</Result>
</Name>
</Test>

Any ideas would be appreciated.

On your management Point, check the IIS logs....see if you seen any authentication errors....

c:\<windows>\System32\LogFiles\w3svc1

Look for the newest log file...and look for errors...

If you see errors, try to uninstall the IIS Lockdown tool (URL SCAN)

I've seen people install the wrong URLSCAN ini file...and lock down IIS too much for SMS. The key is to use the URLSCAN.ini from the SMS Tool Kit...
