A while back, I had to remove a bunch of software, including SQL 2005. Then when I tried to re-install it, the components dialog had Reporting Services greyed out. I did various things (completely un-install, check the IIS settings in Windows setup, etc.), and something that I did finally enabled the RS checkbox. I thought I was off to the races, but I thought too soon. Late in the installation, I got the following error:

Setup failed to read IISWebSite table. I checked the installation log and found the following lines:

ConfigureIIs:  Error 0x8009000f: failed to get metabase data
ConfigureIIs:  Error 0x8009000f: Failed to get key from metabase while searching for web servers
ConfigureIIs:  Error 0x8009000f: Failed to find web root
ConfigureIIs:  Error 0x8009000f: failed to read IIsWebSite table
MSI (s) (D4!40) [10:24:56:265] : Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services -- Error 25602. The setup failed to read IIsWebSite table. The error code is -2146893809.

Error 25602. The setup failed to read IIsWebSite table. The  error code is -2146893809.

I have no idea how to correct this problem. Can anyone help?

TIA,
Arthur
