I agree, 2 seemed best.

Subject: [WiX-devs] Website harvester

I am looking at this bug: 
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.

Neil
