You want the ledger board there, and it should be lag screwed to the house, although the requirement for this varies with local code. It is common to use joist hangers to attach the deck joists (stringers) to the ledger board, although standard toe-nailing works fine and is the time honored approach.
But it sounds like your issue has multiple pieces: Incorrect flashing on the shingles, ledger board and sliding door; inadequate drainage off the roof AND from the deck.
Also, in most locales the ledger board can be pressure-treated wood. But the key is to drain the water away from it.
