  Re: cannot install IIS on new windows server 2003 sp2 installation Reply Contact   Hi. I've got the same problem and a clean install of Windows Server 2003 R2 Service Pack 2. I can find the file convlog.exe on the original install CD-ROM in a folder called AMD64. But then I get the following error message: Copy Error Setup cannot copy the file AcWebSvc.dll Ensure that the disk labeled 'Service Pack 2 CD-ROM' is in the drive selected below, or provide the location where the file can be found.  I haven't got a seperate SP2 CD-ROM only the Windows Server 2003 R2 w/SP2....

  Re: cannot install IIS on new windows server 2003 sp2 installation Reply Contact I have a very similar problem, but I just solved it. I have performed a fresh install of Server 2003 SP 2 and am now trying to get IIS up and running on it. I've tried the installer available via "Manage Your Server" and via the autoplay interface on CD2. The installer starts to run, and then it asks me to install CD2. Of course, CD2 is already in the drive so this doesn't solve my problem. I tried navigating to some lower point in the CD file structure, but that didn't help. I searched all over the internet (including here) but I found no solution. Then, I remember that I am using (well, evaluating) a Microsoft product. So I put CD1 in the drive instead of CD2. This worked like a charm. As an aside, although I have used MS products for years, I usually gravitate toward Apple products because I appreciate the higher degree of polish on most of the products that Apple ships. This experience just re-confirms my low opinion of MS.
