thax dude

AWESOME FIX! THANKS!

you just made my day!! A thousand thanks!!

Thanks a lot. Perfect solution!!!. I would go mad resolving this issue.

Ok, Steve, i tried that, but didn't worked...
but something else did.
Here's what i did
1] Just check the support page given by Microsoft
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894351/en-us
2] Now, mine was 2nd problem, i.e., the "secedit" database
was all fine, (integrity check successful).
MS says, the file actually is missing from the XP SP2
installation and we need to add it from the XP SP CD.
I was not having the XP SP CD, hence i did the foll....
(a) Create a "winxp" folder in C:
(b) Copy "I386" folder from setup CD in winxp.
(c) Download the "staxmem.dll" file from the foll.
location,
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?staxmem
(d) Now, install IIS, and give "C:\winxp" as the path.
and hopefully, it shud work for all of u.

If you find, aby issue or error in the above procedure, do mail me.

Thank you.

graet..
it really works...
i m trying it for such a long time..
& finally got done..

Thanks, The problem solved.

@rdmjr ,

Yes rdmjr, Yesterday only I installed tat IIS and Visual studio for my company projects only. I hate their specification for hardware requirements and even the every component installation.

I'm the good PHP developer. But I heared about ColdFusion.

hmm... check out their Live(eg. Live Drive) Products.. It is also sucks...

microsoft sucks at pretty much everything. i can't stand them more and more each day. WHY would something like this have to be done to install a freaking windows component? and why would they lead you down a road leading to nowhere? why? because that's what they freaking do.

unfortunately i have to install iis on my machine now because my company bought another business that runs all their web apps on microsoft crap called .NET no disrespect to all the .net guys out there, but man, i've been programming some decent web stuff for years using php, cold fusion even asp but this .net stuff is just wrong. you have to have a machine that's TOP of the line to even load the freaking visual studio on, and forget about opening up a large project unless you have 2 or 3 gig of ram.

stevie - you are the man. saved my a@@ here on a late friday night.

Hi

Thanks for your command. I got it. But One think I know Microsoft always sucks....

Lot of pain for installing the .net and IIS...

OMG. Thank you.

@Umesh, try quotes around it

when i run esentutl /p %windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb command following error

esentutl not a valid win32 application

WORKS 100 percent..thnks!!

Lova ya man... thank you so much... ;)

I love you. Thanks!

Thanks :-)

TY !!

I am book-marking this website.

It worked like a breeze. Thanks a lot!!

Excellent solution...thanks a lot

Thx Veryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Muchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hi,

Thanks so much for this - the MS KB article is utterly useless

Dude, Thx for this. It made my life a lot easier.

I have been trying to fix this for more than an hour now and your solution was the only fix I have found on the Internet.

Thx again,
Ben

thanks man.

Thanks very much this sorted me out too - just to clarify (coz i got this wrong a few times) copy and paste this "esentutl /p %windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb" into the command prompt - without changing anything.

i was removing the %windir% and typing in what i deduced to be the path to the windows directory on my machine (and it didn't work) but if you just paste in that string - it works fine

thanks v much

PS Love Curt's comment - number 20 ;)

Muchas Gracias!!!! Que chido!!
Thank's a lot!!

Great!!!
Thanks!

thanks a lot buddy

Thanx heaps! You saved me a weekend of headache.

You are wizard beyond wizards. I have absolutely no idea how you managed to figure out this fix, but it works. I just copied and pasted into the run command line and off it went. Windows prompts to confirm the action, I just held my breath and clicked to proceed. Worked on an LG P1 running XP Pro SP2.

Thanks!

I've been chasing my tail with this problem for weeks. Even my I.T. department couldn't solve it.

Many Thanks

Perfect!\
Thanks
I had the same problem!

esentutl /p %windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb took care of my problem. Thanks.

Thanks a ton man I have been working on this issue for a few days!!!

tks vr much!!

Don't know what it did, but it works. MAY GOD BLESS YOU with many beers.

Man, wish I'd clicked on this link before clicking on the MS knowledgbase one - just wasted a late hour copying and integrating files according to MS only to get a stupid, flat error back 'directory does not exist'

Steve - Thanks dude

Microsoft - you rubbish twats

Thanks a lot Dude .. Perfect ...
Was almost dead trying to solve this problem ,,,...

My IT department couldn't figure it out. A little help from google to find this page and you delivered! Who do I send my check to?

1. Copy code from this page

CODE: esentutl /p %windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb

2. In windows Goto Start / RUN / and paste the code in the RUN box and click "OK"

If your get a error say "OK" let it do its work.

it will fix the problem.

3. Go back to the menu thats asking for the c:\i386

click restart

It should work and keep installing the file....

This was my steps to fixing the problem..

WOW... it WORKS! ty

great!!!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

You saved me at least a handful of hair. Thanks for sharing.

Great job! Thanks - after wasting hours of trying to install IIS, I can finally progress further.

I can only wonder how you found this solution! But well done!

Thanks man normally when i google for something like this i get bollocks but this was my first click Nice thanks :)

This site rocks. I was messing with installing IIS on a work laptop and unsuccessful for hours until I read this forum. many thanks!

Thanks for this. Fixed the problem right away.

This really had me stumped. Thanks for the solution!

Thnx alot
it is really working :)
Shokran

Thank you it works !!!! Merci beaucoup pour cette aide.

Bonne journée

Unbelieveable!!!! I have been trying to figure this out for a long time. I am not the "command prompt guru", so if this helps, I did the following...(not sure if any of this or all of this contributed, but it did finally install!

1) Made sure at the command prompt I was in C:/

2) Forever, I was typing in
esentutl /p c:windows\security\database\secedit.sdb
and getting an error...so I browsed in windows explorer to
C:\WINDOWS\security\Database where I saw a file called Secedit.sdb,.sdb. I made a copy, and named the copy Secedit.sdb

Then back to the command prompt...
esentutl /p c:windows\security\database\secedit.sdb

finally got the Integrity check successful. Then installed ISS successfully.

Thank you all.

Thank you very much! I had this problem for quite sometime now. It worked!!!

Plain and simple...

What exactly does that command do and why it is nessasary? It did fix the problem though. A+++++

Thanks for putting this up...I had the same issue your solutuion worked liked a charm....

10x
simple and working ;)

Great!

Thank you! I've seen this error many times, and not found a good solution until now.
