Demo 4.1.1 server install error -1260

Brand new install of Vault 4.1.1. demo in on XPSP2 with SQL 2005 Express, IIS 5.1 and .NET 2.0 runtime. My machine.config says:

<section name="processModel" type="System.Web.Configuration.ProcessModelSection, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" allowDefinition="MachineOnly" allowLocation="false"/>

Does that mean I have to pick machine login? Anyway I get this error whatever options I pick:

Please help, surely a fresh demo install shouldn't be this hard!

Is your OS 32-bit or 64-bit?

Hi Linda, thanks, it's 32-bit.

The installer uses WMI to create virtual directories in IIS and that is failing for some reason. Errors like that usually indicate a problem with IIS. Try re-installing IIS. You may need to re-install the .NET 2.0 framework after re-installing IIS also.

Aha, thanks!

During reinstall of IIS I got an "error writing encrypted data to the web server's configuration database". Googling this lead me to

and
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q246459/

Following the instructions for repairing permissions in the second link allowed me to reinstall IIS, and then successfully install Vault Server.

I'm guessing this IIS install error may have been also the root cause of the Vault install error too.

Thanks for your help!
