Error On Creating new Space

Question

Can anyone provide me with more insight on why this error occured? Are these type of errors pretty common on WSP? 00:00:00 HOSTING_SPACE_ADD 00:00:00 DOMAIN_ADD 00:00:00 DNS_ZONE_ADD 00:00:00 DOMAIN_ADD 00:00:00 DNS_ZONE_ADD 00:00:01 WEB_SITE_ADD 00:00:08 System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.IO.FileLoadException: Filename: \\?\C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config Error: Cannot write configuration file at Microsoft.Web.Administration.Interop.AppHostWritableAdminManager.CommitChanges() at Microsoft.Web.Administration.Configuration.CommitChanges() at Microsoft.Web.Administration.ConfigurationManager.CommitChanges() at Microsoft.Web.Administration.ServerManager.CommitChanges() at WebsitePanel.Providers.Web.IIs70.SetWebSiteApplicationPool(WebSite site, Boolean createAppPools) at WebsitePanel.Providers.Web.IIs70.CreateSite(WebSite site) at WebsitePanel.Server.WebServer.CreateSite(WebSite site) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall) at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] parameters) at WebsitePanel.Providers.Web.WebServer.CreateSite(WebSite site) at WebsitePanel.EnterpriseServer.WebServerController.AddWebSite(Int32 packageId, Int32 domainId, Int32 packageAddressId, Boolean addInstantAlias) 00:00:08 HOSTING_SPACE_DELETE 00:00:08 Could not create web site at WebsitePanel.EnterpriseServer.PackageController.AddPackageWithResources(Int32 userId, Int32 planId, String spaceName, Int32 statusId, Boolean sendLetter, Boolean createResources, String domainName, Boolean createInstantAlias, Boolean createWebSite, Boolean createFtpAccount, String ftpAccountName, Boolean createMailAccount) Thanks, Victor

Here is some more information from my event logs.

 

ERROR: 'Internet Information Services 7.0' CreateSite

and

I am not sure if these are related but the LogParser error happened about 20 min before the applicationhost.config error showed up in my logs.

 

Thanks,

Answer 4

Facing the same problem. Any solution?

Answer 5

Me too. When creating a package without creating the ftp user at first everything is fine. Temperary solution is to create ftp user afterwards.

Answer 6

Hi Guys,

By default when you create a hosting space within a user account ut takes the user accounts name for the FTP user name.
If it is longer than 20 charichters in length then it will fail.

To see if this is the case choose the Custom Account Name within the FTP section when you are creating the Hosting Space and type the FTP username in manually as the test box will NOT let you put a value in longer than 20 digits in length (even if you paste it in there from the clipboard)

Hope this helps, but if not then please let me know.

Has anyone at Microsoft been able to look into this issue?

Server was unable to process request. ---> Filename: \\?\C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config 
Error: Cannot write configuration file 

This happens just trying to create a website.

Hello victor,

I would say it might of been better for you to start your own post given the starting date of this one.

but:

1) Can you create sites using IIS manager on that server?

2) If you can.. you might want to check if the correct permissions/ groups are set for the WSP Users.

3) If none of those work.. you might want to provide more information..

For example:

Is it a normal User or Active Directory users?

Windows version ? (32/64bit)

Did it ever used to work? or is this a new setup?

Got anything like CAS installed on the server? or just a simple setup

All in one setup? or are portal/Server on different locations?

Regards,

Marco

Can you check if you have some scheduled tasks running at the moment you try to create a website ( bw and disk space statistics ) . We've encountered the same issue couple of years ago.

Rescheduling those tasks to run at night masked the problem :)
