After checking the above mentioned dism.log
and the %WINDIR%\logs\CBS\cbs.log
, I realised the MSMQ-HTTP install tries to bind an MSMQ application to the default website
Excerpt from cbs.log
:
ERROR "Installation of the MSMQ HTTP Support Subcomponent"
ERROR "The full path to the Message Queuing IIS extension is /."
ERROR "Creating a new Message Queuing IIS extension"
ERROR "Starting the default web server"
ERROR "The changes for the IIS extension have been committed."
ERROR "The default Web server started."
ERROR "Creating the msmq web directory"
The problem was that I had deleted the Default Web Site
in my zeal to start from a clean slate.
Adding the Default Web Site
back to IIS allowed the MSMQ-HTTP feature to install successfully.
