I am looking at this bug: http://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=2555688&group_id=105970&atid=642714 <http://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=2555688&group_id=105970&atid=642714> and have discovered that the error is thrown when the code tries to read the properties for the "iisadmin" site (this seems to be a hidden site). The problem is that directoryEntry.Properties.PropertyNames in HarvestWebDirProperties() throws a COMException when you access this site (the documentation for ProperyNames says this is possible).

To fix this I have two choices and wondered which would be the preferred option:

1.       Trap the COMException in HarvestWebDirProperties() and ignore it.

2. Don't call HarvestWebDirProperties() if the code tries to harvest "iisadmin".

I think I prefer 2.


Fair, but we shouldn't let exceptions cause tools to crash.
