Hello Community
I reinstalled Sharepoint 2010 and SQL Server 2008R Evalution 64bit edition
on a member server running Windows 2008 on Windows Server Enterprise Service Pack 2.
Then I click the "Sharepoint 2010 Central Administration"
The first error I got was something to the effect that:
"The IIS Admin Service" service failed to start because a privilege that the service
requires does not exist in the service account configuration run Local Security Settings
MMC."
So I changed all of the service accounts to run under the domain admin account
except IIS Admin because it would only work under either the Local Account or Network
Service so I ran it under Network Service.
The error message I got after that was similar so I added "Create Global Policy"
to the group that the domain administrator account and services is in.
After that I didn't get the error message instead in the address bar I
saw http:\\<machine name>:port number\
But the page below was blank.
I went to Administrative Tools and discovered I have two IIS items:
#1-Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 Manager
#2-Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
#1 is blank: Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 Manager
#2 is "IIS 7": Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
so I double clicked Sharepoint Central Administration v4 and clicked the Security Tab
and added the group with the domain admin account and gave it full control. I also
enabled the following:
Anonymous authentication
AsP.Net Impersonation
Basic authentication
Digest authentication
Forms authentication
Windows authentication
Then I click the "Sharepoint 2010 Central Administration" again and
then I saw http:\\<machine name>:port number\login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f in the address bar and
on the page I saw HTTP 404 Not Found.
I think Sharepoint 2010 uses the 14 hive but since I just installed it I don't know what pages
should appear so I am at a lost at this point.
What can I do to make the Central Administration page appear?
Thank you
