Vmware 1.0.5 Warning 25301.IIS Configuration failed (-2147463164)
During upgrade of VMware’s VMserver version 1.0.4 to version 1.0.5 on Windows 2003 server I have encountered the following error message:
“Warning 25301.IIS configuration failed (-2147463164). You will have to configure the VMware site manually”
After a brief check I found out that 3 services were disabled on that server:
- World Wide Web publishing service
- HTTP SSL
- IIS Admin Service
I started them all, rebooted the server, uninstalled VMserver, rebooted, installed the VMserver 1.0.5 once again and the setup finished without any problems.
