Trial software download.
Windows XP Pro with all patches.

.Net 2 installed

IIS 6

SQL Express with Management tools



After creating the store, it immediately gives the above error with the following information.

It seems like an IIS permission error, but I don't know enough about IIS to fix it and would like to know

if the MS knowledgebase article is ok to run.



Any help would be appreciated.
