Longhorn Beta2: Error on adding Role "Windows Sharepoint Services"

[André M. Bautz]

Hi,

I have successfully (2nd attempt) been able to install Longhorn Beta2 and
also seemingly installed Web server (IIS7) and Windows Sharepoint services
correctly (stated Successfully installed on all elements).
However, on running Sharepoint Products and technologies configuration
wizard, it fails with message like this:

"Failed to provision the Sharepoint Central Administration Web Application"

"An exception of type System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException was
thrown. Exception from HRESULT: 0x80005006"

When accessing the Sharepoint site at http://<server> it states "Under
construction".

Application log/configuration log file is available.

Regards,

André

It's a problem with the SharePoint application - don't really need me
telling you that ) Try removing all remnents of SharePoint, then
installing it again. If it still doesn't work, bug it to Microsoft. Links
