Re: Server Mngt- Backup and Monitor and report Broken after SP2 instal

Go to IIS Manager, '<Server>', 'Web Sites', 'Default Web Site' right click on the 'Backup' virtual directory and select 'Properties'. Towards the bottom of the window there is a section called 'Application Settings'. First entry is 'Application name:' and to the right there is a button. What does the button say? Is it 'Remove' or 'Create'? Do the same thing for the 'Monitoring' virtual directory.

If the button says 'Create', click it to create the application on both virtual directories. If that doesn't solve the problem, the error message doesn't help much
