[FIX] Cannot update domain or sub domain configuration in IIS

APPLIES TO:

• Parallels Plesk Panel for Windows

 Symptoms

When attemting to reconfigure domain or sub domain configuration in IIS using thewebsrvmng.exe  Plesk tool an error message is received. For a domain:

"%plesk_bin%websrvmng.exe" --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=domain.com

The system cannot find the file specified. (COM Error 80070002) For a sub domain:

"%plesk_bin%websrvmng.exe" --update-subdomain --vhost-name=domain.com --subdomain=sub

The system cannot find the file specified. (COM Error 80070002) at configSubdomain(sub.domain.com)

Cause

Some default folders for Plesk domain are missing in (sub) domain root folder.

Resolution

The missing folders need restoring using the Plesk reconfigurator.  This feature checks files permissions + restores missing folders + creates missing system users for (sub) domain. It can be executed via command line as follows:

reconfigurator.exe /check-permissions=domain.com

or using Plesk Panel.

Plesk, Domains, domain.com, check on problem domain, click `Check permissions`.

This should eliminate the source and the command should running properly. For a subdomain, the parent domain needs to be checked.
