Sounds like there is something missing in your .NET 1.1 framework. Try running "aspnet_regiis.exe -i" in a DOS prompt and see if it helps.

Hjälpte det att köra aspnet_regiis? Får samma fel men aspnet_regiis tycks inte hjälpa mig.

Could you try to run Filemon at the same time when you're installing a new site and see what it says (especially error messages are interesting)? Only include the word "aspnet_regiis" in Filemon to track the aspnet_regiis problem. You can download Filemon from http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Filemon.html

I had the same problem. After analyzing Filemon output filtered on "aspnet_regiis", I found that EPiServerManager tried to run C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50215\aspnet_regiis.exe with FILE NOT FOUND result. The likely source for my problem is that I earlier installed Visual Studio 2005 beta experience kit and it caused a lot of problems so I removed it and unistalled NET Framework 2.0. The folder C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50215 was still left on my computer and that probaly trigged EPiServerManager to run the 2.0 version of aspnet_regiis.exe. After removing the v2.0.50215 folder installation worked fine. Problem solved, thanks!

Hi, this error message also occurs when you have installed other .NET Frameworks where aspnet_regiis.exe does not exist, for instance .NET Framework 3.0. In order to solve that just temporary move v3.0 folder from C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\ and retry installation. Regards, JK

I had the exact same problem when trying to upgrade from 4.41 to 4.61 running ASP.NET 1.1. I temporarily moved both the v3.0 and v3.5 folders under Framework, then it worked just fine. Very annoying and I am ever so grateful that I found this post.

Hohh..

 

I would not have found this solution if i haddent foundt this post. Thanks!

Do some one know the reasone why this is a problem?

Thank you Jakub Krzych. That was the solution for my situation. I temporary renamed the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.0 and C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5 folders on my webserver, and the installation was succesfull!
