Install Issue: Failed to access IIS Metabase
I have just installed IIS(5.x) and SQl Server(2000) on XP SP2 (just rebuilt)...so that I can try running Gemini (www.countersoft.com). I installed per directions and adjusted the web.config as instructed...but when I try opening the app in my browser I get the following message:
Server Error in '/Gemini' Application.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Failed to access IIS metabase.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

The process account used to run ASP.NET must have read access to the IIS metabase (e.g. IIS://servername/W3SVC). For information on modifying metabase permissions, please see http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=267904.

Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.42; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.42
I have tried following the instructions from MS, but I still get the message...I wouldn't think it should be this hard to install...a vanilla version on a fresh machine.
Help???!?!!!?
