Trying to create a virtual directory in IIS through Plesk, I get this error:

VirtualDir::update() failed: WebServerManager::addVDir() failed: websrvmng failed: Unknown error 0x80005008 (COM Error 80005008) at addVirtualDir(domain.com, , directorydotnet, C:\inetpub\vhosts\domain.com\httpdocs\greenfilingdotnet)

Suggestions?
 
I hate to bring up an old topic, but we are having this same error.

I just restarted all the services, but that didn't seem to help ether.

Any ideas?

Google/Bing doesn't return much except for this thread on this problem.
 
Hi,

Try this command to run in the command prompt on the plesk server:

C:/Program file/parallels/ plesk/admin/bin webservmgr.exe --reconfigure-vhost --vhost-name=domain name

Thanks,
 
Try websrvmng --remove-vhost --vhost-name=domainname

and then websrvmng --install-vhost --vhost-name=domainname
