I had this issue when I ran IIS for the first time:
The server failed to load application ‘/LM/W3SVC/1/ROOT’. The error was ‘Class not registered’.
The problem was Dell did not install the MSDTC, which is the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator, and I found the solution at http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=881749&SiteID=1.
Basically here are the steps that I took to fix it:
- Run msdtc – install in c:\windows\system32 using the command prompt
- Uninstall and reinstall IIS
