(Already posted this in the original blog)...

Can you please try to follow the below steps in order to fix your problem:

1. Open the registry and create a DWORD key "CurrentInstallState" on HKLM/software\microsoft\WindowsNT\currentcontrolset\Inetstp and set it to 1 2. Then Rename the metabase.xml which is under %windir%\system32\inetsrv to something else (let's say metabase.xml.old).

3. Net start iisadmin

4. Net stop iisadmin (This will regenerate the metabase.xml for you, now go to the registry and delete the "CurrentInstallState" key) 5. Open new metabase.xml and copy the MSFTPSVC nodes from the saved copy of metabase.xml 6. Then delete any line's that contain long string of characters. Like AdminACL/AnonymousUserPass (These are currently encrypted with the old

encryption) and IIS will not start if they cannot be decrypted).

7. Net start iisadmin

Please let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Amar

Sorry, I just realized that this was in the IIS 5/6 forums. I am reposting in IIS 7 forums. Please remove this.

Anyone else have any other ideas for this fix? I am still unable to install the IIS 6.0 compatibility features and it is quite frustrating. I have tried the fixes that people have posted in the forums about the machinekeys folder, and nothing works for me. If anyone else has any more ideas or needs any other info from me, please let me know.

Thanks,

Justin

Are you running Vista RTM or Longhorn Server beta?

Thanks.

It looks very similar to the other post in this forum, but I have tried to enable access for the SYSTEM account and Administrators Group to the files that are located at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA\MachineKeys and I keep receiving the error. I even verified that none of the permissions are inherited.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling IIS, I even used the windows system restore to roll my machine back. Nothing works, I still get this error. The only thing that I did differently was that I accidentally tried to install the metabase support before any part of IIS was installed. I had done a full format and had forgotten that I didn't have IIS installed yet and so I went to install the metabase support and got this error. I figured this was why, but then I installed IIS successfully and the error doesn't go away.
