<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Product: SharePoint WSS 3.0<br />
OS: MS WIndows Server 2003 SP2<br />
ASP.NET v2 installed<br />
<br />
I'm reinstalling WSS 3.0 on a server on which I'm a member of the Administrator group. It's an &quot;Advanced Install&quot;, server type &quot;Stand Alone&quot;, and the data location is on a local E drive.<br />
<br />
At the Configuration Wizard, continue through &quot;IIS and other serveces may need to be restarted&quot;, and arrive at &quot;Configuring SharePoint Products and Technologies&quot;, and run. At step 8, I get &quot;Configuration Failed&quot;.<br />
<br />
&quot;Failed to create sample data.<br />
An excEption of type System. UnauthorizedAccessExceptio<wbr />n was thrown. Additional access information:<br />
Access is denied (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)&quot;<br />
<br />
What would cause this error to be thrown? As I said, I'm an administrator on the server, so access shouldn't be an issue.<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

SharePoint WSS 3.0 Installation Configuration Failure

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).

The successor to Active Server Pages, ASP.NET websites utilize the .NET framework to produce dynamic, data and content-driven web applications and services. ASP.NET code can be written using any .NET supported language. As of 2009, ASP.NET can also apply the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern to web applications

These capabilities include developing web sites, portals, intranets, content management systems, search engines, wikis, blogs, and other tools for business intelligence and collaboration. SharePoint has a Microsoft Office-like interface, and it is closely integrated with the Office suite.
