    Hello all,

    I have Windows 2008 server and I am trying to install AD Certificate Services with Web enrollment. However, I am getting this error on the screen:

    Certification Authority Web Enrollment configuration failed

    I tried looking up forums and the suggestion to Modify SetupStatus at HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\CertSvc\Configuration to 0×6001. This is already set to 0x6001 in my case. For more details, I am copying here the logs from the ServerManager. Appreciate any help on this, thanks.

    This question belongs in the Security forum.  I will move it there.

    Hi,

    Please test if we are able to install only AD Certificate Services without Web enrollment. If we can, then please install the web enrollment. If not, please check System and Application log to see if there are some event related to CA installation.

    I am able to install AD Certificate Services without Web Enrollment. When trying to install web enrollment separately for the role, I get the same error. I am using the default builtin Administrator account to do this, fyi. I am from Cisco and we have unlimited support license, so if this is not resolved here, I would seek MS support.

    Hi,

    Regarding current situation, we may need more infromaiton like System and Application log to see if there are some useful informaiton for this error.

    So i agree to create call to MS support.
