AnswerProblem with installing FTP 7 on IIS 7.0 (Windows Server 2008)

    Heya everyone,

    I am running Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition, and have installed Web Server role, along with FTP Publishing Service and several other stuff. When I want to install new FTP 7 Publishing Service for IIS 7, I get the following error message:

    "COM+ Catalog creation failed with error 0x80070422. Distributed Transcation Coordinator Service may not be running."

    I have turned on the Distributed Transaction Coordinator service, but I still get this error message. What is the problem?

    P.S. You can take a look at the error log file located at http://files.petarpetrovic.com/ftp7.log

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Asix,

     

    According to the research, the error code 0x80070422 means ERROR_SERVICE_DISABLED. Please ensure that the Startup type of the "Distributed Transaction Coordinator" service is set as "Automatic (Delayed Start)" and restart the service, and then you may test if the error message will re-occur.

     

    As the issue seems to be related to IIS 7.0, it is recommend you to initial a new thread in the IIS discussion forum. The engineers and the community members have more knowledge of it and can help you in a more efficient way.

    Tried that and everything else in my search for an aswer to this COM+ Catalog Creation failed. So far nothing has fixed it for me and I'm tearing my hair out. I need this but nothing works!

    Even with all of the great suggestions posted here I was still having trouble. After about 2+ days of research here's how I fixed the problem.

    First check to see if the Distributed Transaction Coordinator is running as a Local Service. If it is you need to open a command prompt and do msdtc -uninstall followed with msdtc -install. This should turn MSDTC into a Network Service. Check services and be sure DTC is started. For me it was set to manual. I changed it to Automatic (Delayed Start) and restarted it and the COM+ Event System. Went back and installed FTP 7.5 without a hiccup. Hope folks find this useful.

    I had to enable the COM+ System Application service to get this to work.
