MOM Alerts to RSS Issue Bugfix

Just got a message with resolution to the MOM Alerts to RSS issue. See below Several posts have identified an issue with the MOM RSS utility that is included with the MOM 2005 Resource Kit.  The cause of this issue is a missing reference in the MOMSyndication project.  Use the following steps to correct this issue: 1. Setup the MOM RSS utility on your local workstation according to the documentation included in the MOM RSS utility (create the virtual director in IIS, etc) 2. On your local machine, browse to and open the MOMSyndication project (MOMSyndication.sln) in Visual Studio 2003 (posts on other sites have noted that this may not work if using Visual Studio 2005).  When you open the solution, Visual Studio will go out to your local IIS service and obtain the necessary rights, files, etc. 3.  Next let’s take a look at the problem.  With VS2003 open, open the Solution Explorer and expand the References section.  When you do this, you will notice that the Microsoft.MOM.SDK reference is marked in red.  This means that the file reference for this .dll file is missing.  What we need to do is tell Visual Studio where it can find this file and then re-build the solution.   4.  First we need to go and get this file.  Luckily it is included in the MOM installation.  Go out to a MOM 2005 management server and look under the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Operations Manager 2005\sdk bin folder (assuming this was your installation path).  In this folder you will find a file called Microsoft.MOM.SDK.dll.  Copy it to your local machine into the Alerts via RSS folder (the RSS Reader utility folder). 4.  Let’s re-add the reference.  Right-click on the Microsoft.MOM.SDK reference and click Remove.   Next right click on the References folder and click Add Reference…  In the window that appears under the .NET tab click the button for Browse.  Now browse to and find the Microsoft.MOM.SDK.dll file that you just copied to your local machine.  After you have done this, click OK and then OK again at the Add Reference window. 5.  Now re-build the project.  The build should succeed. 7.  Deploy the MOM RSS utility according to the documentation included with the utility.
