I get the exception:
Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
when installing RC1 or RC2 on a virtual Win 2k3 server with a SQL 2000.
The exception occurs as the installation process is "installing config file /web.config".
Any ideas?
This exception is thrown by the CLR to prevent buffer overflow. Some stack trace information, or method which throws this exception would be helpful when debugging.
Generally this exception involves the usage of /unsafe code I am not sure if EPiServer uses any unsafe code, but if so it can be a bug, otherwise it's probably a bad parameter to the framework somewhere.
While attempting what outlined in the post by Sidharth Ranka the hotfix installer threw up a message saying that the "component in question" was no longer installed. So it did not work.
