    Trying to install DotNetNuke

    Reply Contact

    I anticipate a long thread.*headdesk*

    Trying to install DotNetNuke Community edition via WPI. Running Vista, IIS7. WPI says:

    .NET Extensibility,  ISAPI Filters, and ASP.NET dependencies did not install correctly.

     The first Error in the WPI log file is:

     <pre>DownloadManager Error: 0 : Error loading rating files: System.Xml.XmlException: '--' is an unexpected token. The expected token is '>'. Line 81, position 5.</pre>

     The first FAIL in the iis7 log file is:

    <pre>[10/26/2009 12:37:17] [ ***** IIS 7.0 Component Based Setup ***** ]
    [10/26/2009 12:37:17] "C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\iissetup.exe" /launch C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe reset config -section:system.webServer/isapiFilters
    [10/26/2009 12:37:17] Launching command C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe, with params C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe reset config -section:system.webServer/isapiFilters
    [10/26/2009 12:37:17] < !!FAIL!! > LaunchCommand result=0x80070001
    [10/26/2009 12:37:17] [ End of IIS 7.0 Component Based Setup ]</pre>

    Is this enough info to tell me what's going on and how to fix it?

    Hi Datagnostics 

     Can you try running the following from an elevated command prompt and sharing this output ?

    appcmd list config -section:system.webServer/isapiFilters

    thanks

     Further testing:

    >appcmd list config

    results in: 80070490, Command execution failed: Element not found.

    And yet I can see config elements in there ... more research is warranted.

     Where can I get a new, clean copy of applicationHost.config? That may be the issue ...

     eta: I need to run ASP, PHP, ASP.NET, FastCGI on this system. Must run Wordpress, ZenCart, various Access-driven sites -- this is my basic development machine.

    I agree the config might be corrupted somehow. I am researching the errors to see if there is any inplace fix. 

    For a clean config, by default there should be some configuration history backups  you can check with "appcmd list backup" but depending on when the config problem started these may not go back far enough. The other option would be if you manually created a backup of a clean system ( AppCmd add backup)  

    Other than I would success removal/reinstall using the following steps.

    1. Uninstall IIS.
    2. Uninstall the Windows Process Activation Service. ( this is what manages the configs )
    3. Cleanup up any files under  (%windir%\System32\inetsrv\)
    4. Reinstall.

     Crikey. Now I can't uninstall IIS, any of the parts under WWW Services. I swapped in an applicationHost.config file from last year, and I still can't uninstall. *HEAD* *DESK*

     Partial victory -- by uninstalling Windows Process Activation Service *first*, I was then able to uninstall IIS.

     Now, what exactly do you mean by "cleanup files under insetsrv"?  I've got the following folders:

    backup

    config

    history

    MetaBack

    and a schema file. What do I delete, or not?

     For people who come by later, looking for info:

     The answer to "delete what?" was to delete *all* the folders under inetsrv (well, back them up somewhere you can get them again). Then re-install IIS, and WAS came with it.

     The DNN install worked fine after that.
