RE: Event ID: 6482 after installation

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

No success as yet, but a little progress in diagnosing the root cause…

The error occurs at the very end of the SharePoint Configuration Wizard
process.

In the log file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server
extensions\12\LOGS\OFFICE1-20070504-0014.log the entries include “Creating
SSL certificate for IIS web site 'Office Server Web Services'” … the error
happens immediately after this.

Why is this server not allowing the creation of a SSL Certificate?
