SYMPTOMS
When you review a document library on an extranet site, you may receive an error message that is similar to:

Script Execution Error: Error executing INVOKE query



CAUSE
This problem may occur if the Web sites are not numbered sequentially in the Internet Information Services (IIS) metabase. This problem may occur if a Web site is deleted.

By default, IIS Web sites are numbered sequentially when they are created, for example:
 * W3SVC/1: Typically the default Web site
 * W3SVC/2: Typically the administration Web site
 * W3SVC/3: Typically the first Web site that a user creates

If the administration Web site is removed, the sites are no longer numbered sequentially, for example:
 * W3SVC/1: The default Web site
 * W3SVC/3: The first Web site that a user creates
 * W3SVC/4: The second Web site that a user creates



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, contact Microsoft Product Support Services. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services phone numbers and information about support costs, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;CNTACTMS

NOTE: In special cases, charges that are ordinarily incurred for support calls may be canceled if a Microsoft Support Professional determines that a specific update will resolve your problem. The usual support costs will apply to additional support questions and issues that do not qualify for the specific update in question.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, create another Web site in Internet Services Manager. Give this new Web site the Web site number of the Web site that was deleted (for example, W3SVC/2).

If you do not want to host another Web site, you can create a placeholder Web site to sequentially number Web sites in IIS:  In the InetPub folder, create a folder named PLACEHOLDER. Start Internet Services Manager:  Click Start, point to Programs, and then click Administrative Tools. Click Internet Services Manager. </li> Right-click your computer name, click New, and then click Web Site.</li> When the Web site creation wizard appears, click Next.</li> Type Placeholder for the site description, and then click Next.</li> Type 127.0.0.1 for the IP address, type PLACEHOLDER for the host header, and then click Next.</li> Type or locate the path for the Placeholder folder that you created in step 1, and then click Next.</li> Click to clear the check boxes for all Web access permissions, and then click Next.</li> Click Finish.</li> Right-click the newly created Placeholder Web site in Internet Services Manager, and then click Stop.</li></ol>

The new Web site is created, but Web clients cannot locate the new Web site.

NOTE: If more than one Web site was deleted, you may have to repeat these steps to create additional placeholder Web sites.
