I'm not too sure about this. I have the same situation as Tiago, default
IIS install, not a complete web service, there are no virtual folders. W2K
insisted I need to keep certain IIS functions for a communications manager.
I have not further investigated the communications manager, but I got the
exact same failure. The machine is the forest root and no lockdown tool has
been run since there is no web access.

I might add, this is a very frustrating situation. The failure occurs just
before final cleanup, after the installation has been running for about an
hour (this is my test domain, so the machines are not current hardware), and
the back out is also time consuming.

My $0:02 worth

This maybe a function of the IIS/URL scan tool. Does it not remove access
to the .htr and .htw and .idq and .ida extensions.

I did not experience the same issue that you did. I was running Win2K
server w/ SP3 + IIS and updated the O/S using the SP4 Network Installation.
I suspect your error messages are related to permissions.

Hi all,

I have a Windows 2000 Server with SP3 (fully patched), and (this is
important) with IIS installed by default which means all the extensions were
still there (like .htr, .htw, etc...).

I installed SP4 (network installation) and in the end I was presented with a
messagebox:

- title "sp4iis"
- msg "unable to write scriptmaps metabase entry"

I pressed ok and then another messagebox:

- title "sp4iis"
- msg (this one I am not 100% sure) "regsvr32 failed. the error was 5"

I tried the installation 2 more times with always the same result.
Next, I went to IIS and removed .htr and .htw and .idq and .ida extensions
and tried again.

This time no error was logged and everything went ok.

Has anyone been presented with a similar behavior ?

Regards,
Tiago Halm
