Hi nass
I contacted Microsoft support and eventually they came up with the following
fix, which worked. There is no kb article on the subject.
The solution was to remove and reinstall the settings for MS DTC (Microsoft
Distributed Transaction Coordinator) and re-registering COM components for
IIS, as follows:
1. Open the command prompt
2. Uninstall msdtc using the following command; "msdtc.exe -uninstall"
3. Open the registry editor using regedit.exe
4. browse to and delete the following registry string;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MSDTC
5. Reinstall msdtc using the following command "msdtc.exe -install"
6. Reregister the IIS COM components using the following command;
"%Windir%\System32\inetsrv\rundll32 wamreg.dll, CreateIISPackage"
