error -2147467259 (0x80004005)

-2147467259 (0x80004005)
I have heard that I can run IIS directly through the wwwroot folder. Even though I could not run it. All the settings are correct.
When I try to run it it gives me above error.
What I did is that I searched for this error online. I found following links :http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q272693/#kb3
The links suggest to download and installed two things :
1) http://support.seagatesoftware.com/communityCS/FilesAndUpdates/scr8_webregfix.exe
2) NOTE: The P2sodbc.dll issue also applies when version 8.0.0.84 is distributed to computers that do not have Crystal Reports installed (for example, as part of an application previewing a Crystal Report). For more information, see the following Crystal Decisions Knowledge Base article:
http://support.crystaldecisions.net/library/kbase/articles/c2007612.asp

Also it keep on saying that I have installed the Crystal report. Really, I did not installed it. I do not know what is even CR.
Any expert have any opinion?

Hai,

1. Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Internet Services Manager
2. This will launch you IIS window select your system Name on left frame.
3. Navigate to "Default Web Site" and select your site name if you have created virtual directoy or just select "Default Web Site"
4. Right Click -> Properties, select "Home Directory" tab.
5. You can see a text called "Application Protection" set the value to "Low (IIS Process)"

Bye

Ajai,

How does that fix anything?

It might getting it working but is it really fixing the problem or just avoiding it?

If you had a choice would you run an asp application with low application protection?

Anthony.
is this error for just one particular page or for all asp pages..?
All the pages are not working also my asp page is just a hello world . I also tried with some html in the asp page and also tried with empty page. It is just not starting...
when I lowered my protection to low the error is

"The requested resource is in use."
Can you show us the complete 'Hello World' page and the full phyical path of the file?

Reinstalled IIS no differance...
Also the code which I am trying to access is :
<html>
<body bgcolor="yellow">
<center>
<h2>Hello W3Schools!</h2>
</center>
</body>
</html>

This is simple html code with asp extention.
Any other ideas guys...?
do you have any other web servers installed too..?
like what...? I have installed coldfusion. << that brings the money so I can learn ASP.
I can not reinstall now Windows for this... :(
Hai

Stop ColdFusion and Restart IIS and then try to browse that page...

Bye
Ajai
done... not working...
I will try to uninstall coldfusion...now...
I was just searching " -2147467259 (0x80004005)" for any info and I was surprised that it has no definitive meaning... it is very random and ugly!
Ok...

Bye
Ajai
maybe better off to stop ColdFusion > restart computer > re-install IIS > restart computer > try again..?
szAppName : dllhost.exe     szAppVer : 5.1.2600.2180     szModName : ole32.dll
szModVer : 5.1.2600.2595     offset : 00025ac8    

I got this error while I was uninstalling ColdFusion is it related to ASP too.. cause I have seen it before when I was playing with IIS.
Thank you for continuous guidance.
sorry I mean

 maybe better off to uninstall ColdFusion > restart computer > re-install IIS > restart computer > try again..?
I am just uninstalling CF at this moment... I will restart my comp right after that... and see what happens....

Hai,

Seems everything is screwed up in your system.... Ok...

First uninstall IIS and restart your system then try to uninstall coldfussion.

Bye
Ajai
I'll be back in about 40 minutes and find ot the results
Ok....

Then remove IIS and Restart then Add IIS and try asp pages...

Make sure to Un-Check "Show Friendly HTTP Error messages" on Internet Explorer options. (Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced Tab)

Bye
Ajai
Removed Coldfusion does not matter. I will try to remove IIS than... again...
Going to go with a hunch here, when you read up about your errors in the begining, you said it was something to do with crystal reports 8.  So why not try to uninstall it if that may be the issue.  Why we messing with cold fusion?  Eh' if it doesn't work, atleast we tried it..



How can I be certain CE is completely uninstalled?
Solution
How you can remove all Crystal Decisions products. In that case, use Add/Remove Programs from the Control Panel to remove all Crystal Decisions products (Crystal Reports, Crystal Enterprise, Seagate Info, Seagate Analysis, etc.).

===========
WARNING: Before uninstalling CE, make certain that any files you wish to retain have been backed up or moved to a new directory location. This is especially important if the computer stores Crystal Reports files as this method will remove all Crystal Decisions products.
===========

After using Add/Remove Programs to remove CE, complete the following steps to completely uninstall CE:

1. Open Windows Explorer and expand the %systemroot% directory. For Windows NT 4\2000 this is generally the Winnt folder.

2. Delete the \Crystal subdirectory and its contents.

3. Expand the \System32 subdirectory on Windows NT 4\2000. Delete the following files if they are present:

Crbas*.*
Crdb*.*
Crgup*.*
Crheapalloc.dll
Criadx*.*
Crinf*.*
Cror*.*
Crpaig80.dll
crpe*.*
Crsyb*.*
crutl*.*
Crxml*.*
Ebus-3*.*
Etc-1-*.*
Exlate32.dll
Htmlr*.DLL
nsclient.dll
OMNI*.DLL
p2bdao.dll
p2ctdao.dll
p2irdao.dll
p2sevt.dll
p2sodbc.dll
p3ddoen.dll
p3rdoen.dll
p3seven.dll
p3soden.dll
p3tdoen.dll
r3exlen.dll
STRINGres_en.DLL

4. Expand the Program Files folder and delete the Seagate Software subdirectory and its contents. If you installed to a different directory, remove that directory as well. (By default, some files will always be installed to the Program Files\Seagate Software directory.) If you are using Crystal Enterprise 8.5 you will also need to remove the Program Files\Crystal Decisions directory.

5. For Crystal Enterprise 8.0 you will need to delete the Seagate Software registry keys using the Windows Registry Editor as follows:

a. Click Start > Run, type "Regedit" and click 'OK'.

b. Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE. Delete the Seagate Software subkey.

c. Expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE. Delete the Seagate Software subkey.

d. Close the Registry Editor.

Crystal Enterprise is now completely uninstalled.



Let me know..

Ody
thank you Ody but I do not have crystal report... installed. I never installed it as I do not know what that is.
Also I removed coldfusion. I removed IIS.. restart computer. Installed the IIS again no luck...
Removed IIS I installed the service pack 2 again and restart and installed IIS same error...
Also I have checked to make sure if Crystal report is removed and I could not find a single file so I am sure that is not there...

Any other ideas guys....? If you guys think that the option is re-installing Windows ... well I guess that is the option left..
---Pinal
Hai,

As I said earlier... Your entire system is screwed up... So there is no other way than to repair/reinstall Windows.
