Hi All,

If I'm wrong about posting this here please let me know the
proper newsgroup.

My system is W2K Pro, SP-4 + Rollback. The system crashed
and I restored from my external backup. But 'dotnet' did
not run due to this error message 'not installed'. So I used
Add/Remove Programs and removed it. I then downloaded 'dotnet'
again but the installation failed and I don't remember the
reason - sorry.

I used RegEdit and removed all 'dotnet' references and I
downloaded 'dotnetfx.exe' and it also failed. I search the
for the Internal Error Code of 2908 (with a 30+ alpha/
numeric string) and also searched Error 1935, HResult:
0x8002802f and found nothing relevant.

Please help me get dotnet installed and

Thank you,

Jay
 
Hey Jay,

I remember running into problems getting ASP.NET to work on my W2K machine,
as well, although I did not do a rollback. Here's what fixed it:

1. Open a command prompt
2. Type: cd %systemroot%\Microsoft.net\Framework
3. Type dir *.
4. "CD" into the directory of the version you are trying to install
5. There should be a program called "asp_regiis.exe
6. Type "asp_regiis -i" (I for Install, don't type the quotes)
7. Problem solved.

That's what it was for me... so on my computer, I typed:
cd C:\Winnt\Microsoft.net\Framework\v1.1.4322\
asp_regiis -i

I can't remember if you have to restart IIS after you're done or not, but
you can try that anyways.

Hope this helps!

Hey,

I guess I should've read a little harder... right now you don't even have
..NET installed... I guess it probably won't work for you... Sorry I
couldn't be more helpful.
