Post subject: IIS Installation Error - Server 2003
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)

I have Server 2003 Enterprise and when I try to install the IIS it
errors out and tells me that it can't complete the installation
and that it can't be installed on the server.

If I try to do it through the control panel add software, it seems
to work, but then I don't see the IIS under the configure your server
screen.

Any help would be appreciated. The OS is Windows 2003 Server Enterprise.

Thanks
JB

Post the *exact* error.

Try Adminstrative Tools - internet Information Services (IIS) Manage

I got it working now. It seemed to be a corrupt installation.

I started from scratch, new partition, install, etc.

This time it worked well.

I think the problem had to do with loading the windows updates from
the ms update site prior to installing IIS. If I installed
Windows 2003, then ran updates, then installed my roles, it would
do this. But if I setup my roles first, it worked fine.

I wasn't able to use the Admin Tools, IIS Manage, the website would go
down and so would web access. But after the reinstall and updates last,
it works fine.

Now if I can just get past the mail migration issues. : )

Thanks,
James
