We reinstalled IIS multiple times without any result, any other advise?
I would suggest checking permissions on the metabase files and folders.
Make sure the Nework Service has full writes to them. In the first error we see that the Metabase file could not be updated.

I changed the permissions on the folder C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsr
The files stored in the MetaBack folder are a *.MD1 and *.SC1 file, the MD1 file is 39 kb big and the SC1 file is 258 kb big.

The MetaBack folder is actually your backup folder for the Metabase.
Do the permission changes on the inetsrv folder instead.

Thanks steedBmaher for your help with my problem.
I changed the inetsrv folders permissions including all files without result. Still same error messages and the WWW service doesn't start.
Any other suggestions?

My server gives an error when submitting this command: Windows cannot find 'regsrv32'.
see if you caqn Down Load a copy of Regsrv32.exe.
Copy it into you system32 folder and you should be able to run the command.

FYI - I had to uninstall IIS, reinstall IIS, update inetserv permissions, register the DLL AND reboot before this worked for me. . .
Hi,
You can perform this activity without server reboot.
