Cannot create Virtual Directory in Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Environment

Dear all,
I am trying install Reporting Services 2005 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Enterprise machine.
So far we successfully did the following steps
- Install SQL Server Reporting Services
- Configure Service Account (Domain-User)
After creating virtual Directory, we made several steps to avoid HTTP 400 Bad Request in Report Manager:
1. Disable LSA Loopback in Registry and restart server
2. Enhance Service Startup time to 60000ms and restart Server
3. Set Application Pool to ASP.NET 2.0 Classic Mode
4. Modify RSWebApplication.config and set These entries:
<ReportServerUrl>http://servername/ReportServer</ReportServerUrl>
<ReportServerVirtualDirectory></ReportServerVirtualDirectory>
After all the Reporting Services Configuration Manager still shows a red sign and we cannot continue creating the database.
How is it possible to solve this?
We appreciate any help.
Best regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,
As per my understanding, we can refer to the following methods to troubleshooting the issue you occurred.
Install SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3.
Deleting the newly-created virtual directory using IIS manager and then rebooting the server.
In the Report Manager Virtual Directory dialog box, create a virtual directory for Report Manager, then change the Website to Reporting.
Enable Apply default settings.

How to install bo xi 3.1 on windows server 2008 r2 sp1 (virtual machine )

HI GUYS --
operating system: I am trying to install Business Objects into a virtual computer which has a windows server 2008 R2 SP1 operating system. I installed version BO XI 3.1 and I also installed Service pack 3 and Service pack 4. I installed liveoffice usual way. Whenever I try to design xcelsius and dashboard, I got some errors. In order to fix these errors, I followed SAP notes step by step. However, It didnt help me at all. I also tried to install by looking at install guide and supported platform documents, but I get an error each time of doing that. I can write each error over here. I also opened a link over here. Check out the link please to see the errors how to display webi docs. in liveoffice?
My main question is this.
Are there anybody who works operating system windows server 2008 R2 SP1 and this installed into the virtual machine? If so, Is it worked by doing which installations exactly?
Note; Business Objects tools work very well (infoview, cmc, web intelligencei and the others work without problems at QAAWS BO XI 3.1, but they have been given cluster error at BO XI 3.1 SP3) . In addition, port server settings have been installed based on the installion guide. If you give me any information other than whatever I said, I appreciate that. I also point out something. If I dont get any message which I attached a sample when I try to operate life office. In this situation I cant see either my documets or web documents in infoview)

Hi SYaGCi,
Denis is right this is actually documented in the Supported Platforms Documentation:
"Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are new platform support additions in Service Pack 3 which are only available for support on the SP3 full release install of SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise. The SP3 patch only release of SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise does not provide support for these two new platforms."
Kind regards,
John

throwme following message.
This is a real pain when there is no way of doing this. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Brian is right, for mange the Server 2008r2 sp1 we recommend use the Windows 7 or 7.1 platform.

How to create restore point in windows server 2008 service pack1

hi i am bhaskar ... how to create restore point in windows server 2008 service pack1 and how to restore system from a restore point in windows server 2008 service pack1.. is this option available or not ? what is the difference between shadow copies and
restore point ? instead of restore point we have this shadow copies option in windows server 2008 ?Bhaskar

AFIK, Restore Points doesn’t exist in Windows 2008.
Volume Shadow Copy option can be used to achieve:
Creating consistent backups of open files and applications
Creating shadow copies for shared folders
Creating transportable shadow copies using a hardware provider — for backup, testing and data mining scenarios
Quickly recovering and restoring files and data
It is more like a file, data, application backup.

Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 - BSOD Stop Error 0x00000050 RDPWD.SYS

Hi all,
I have been struggling with a BSOD for the past 5 weeks and have scoured the web trying in vain to find someone else with the same issue.
Environment:
8 x 2008 R2 SP1 Windows Servers (8Gb RAM, 25Gb HDD) with Remote Desktop Services Roles installed, running as part of an RDS Farm. All Servers are VM Guests (hardware version 7) running on VMware vSphere v4.1.0-260247 Hosts (Dell
PowerEdge R710 - 128Gb RAM). Our vSphere 'farm' has 5 Hosts that connect to our EMC SAN via iSCSI with multipath routes.
Each RDS Server is load balanced via a Connection Broker, and each server has the same set of software / vm hardware installed. In a nutshell, each has Symantec Endpoint Protection v11.0.5002.333, Symantec Altiris v7.0, Microsoft Office 2007 as well as
other various software essential to these servers.
Symptoms:
Randomly throughout the day, one (or more) of the RDS Servers will crash with a BSOD more often than not with "caused by driver ntoskrnl.exe" sometimes with "cng.sys" and once with "ksecpkg.sys". So far in the 5 weeks I have had 90 crashes. Yesterday
all 8 of the RDS Servers crashed at some point throughout the day.
On a typical BSOD, it says:
The problem seems to be caused by the following file: ntoskrnl.exe
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
Technical Information:
*** STOP: 0x00000050 (0xfffffa800c153284, 0x0000000000000001, 0xfffff880053dc0c9, 0x0000000000000000)
*** ntoskrnl.exe - Address 0xfffff8000169ac40 base at 0xfffff8000161e000 DateStamp 0x4e02aaa3
Using BlueScreenView it says "caused by address: ntoskrnl.exe+7cc40" nearly every time.
I have analysed as best I could using Microsoft WinDbg, and this is the output of a typical mini-dump file:

The RDS servers are set to reboot automatically, and after a period of 5 minutes or so, the users can reconnect and log back in. On a typical day each server will have around 10 people RDP'd in to them.
The Users connecting to the RDS Servers included XP laptops/desktops and IGEL UD-120-LX Thin Terminals. The XPs have SP3 installed and are fully patched via Symantec Altiris.
Things I have tried:
- Analyse the dump-files (as per above).
- I have tracked each user logging on to the RDS Farm (via batch scripts) and tried to determine if this is caused by the same individual(s) but it appears random.
- Check to see if the crashing Virtual Machine is running on a specific host, but it has happened on all Hosts.
- Check to see if there was anything specific that happened on the day that the crashes started. There were about 5 new poeple introduced to the RDS Farm at that time, but there were using (a) client machines that had been used previously elsewhere with
no issues, (b) software that had been used previously, (c) in a remote location that had previous users using RDS, (d) have not been logged on to a RDS Server when it has crashed.
- Updated Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 to the latest patches (as of Feb 2012).
- Turned on Verifier (using recommended settings), and then analysed dump-files with the same reference to rdpwd.sys.
- Fixed the Memory Resource Reservation in vSphere to the full 8Gb for all these RDS Servers (so that the memory is not shared at all).
- Ran MEMTEST on a VM Guest with the full 8Gb RAM, on a couple of the ESX Hosts.
- Changed the VMTools Video Driver to the SVGA II driver from the Standard VGA Driver.
- Ran a full AV Scan (using SEP).
- Isolated the Printer Drivers using the Printer Management MMC.
- Ran sfc /scannow of all RDS Servers and rebooted.
The mini-dump file mentioned above is here:https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=48f471f287af2349&resid=48F471F287AF2349!105&parid=48F471F287AF2349!103
I hope someone can help, as what hair I have left (from pulling it out) is turning grey!

Unable to Install Windows Server 2012 on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Hyper-V

My attempts to install are failing with a message "Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or missing....Error code: 0x800705070".
I am posting this on the Wondows 2012 Server forum but I have had exactly the same problem as described below with Windows 2008 R2 SP1.
As the title says this is on a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 host with all current updates. I have downloaded the ISO file from a Technet subscription file twice, once by direct download and once by the Akamai downloader. The virtual disk is connected with
the default IDE driver. I mounted both installation images as ISOs, located on a file system on the host server. I have tried installs by deleting the VM and recreating both the VM and a new virtual disk, re-using a previously created virtual disk, and
deleting the partitions in a previously created virtual disk, and executing the format command, and then attempting the install.
I have exactly the same problem trying to create a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 VM on the same host OS. With those attempts, I downloaded the Technet subscription iso 4 or 5 times, and burned one to a DVD which I attached to the created VM. Same
error message.
The virtual machines and virtual disks I created and used were all located on an RAID5 array, on a builtin Intel RAID controller using Intel Rapid Storage Technology software version 11.2.0.1066. The host Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 uses this file system
but the OS is installed on a dedicated drive (C).
I had previously created a guest VM with Windows Server 2008 R2 (several months worth of updates ago) without drama.
I have spent hours reading forums and blog articles on this. A common response is to download the iso another time, and/or burn it to a DVD instead of mounting an iso image. Although I didn't do the later yet with 2012 Server, but I have done these
other steps attempting to install Windows 2008 Server SP1. The install process takes a while (not to mention doing multiple downloads). Given this seems to be a common recommended remedy, and indeed based on posts does seem to eliminate the problem is some
cases, why doesn't somebody change the Microsoft installer program so it does a thorough integrity check at the beginning of the install process?

Jeff,
After the exercise of Windows 2012 Server successfully installing (as I described above) I also successfully installed Windows 2008 R2 on Hyper-V. From my standpoint, I have eliminated the problem (which isn't the same as correcting the problem).
The answer to your specific question regarding Hyper-V support is that the motherboard I am using, an Asus P5Q, is not supported by Windows 2008 R2 because it doesn't use ECC memory, and the vendor doesn't say it supports Windows 2008. But I am sure you
know the motherboard vendors often don't test older motherboards with newer software versions. It appears that in specifying ECC memory Microsoft is trying to protect users of Windows Server from hurting themselves, not saying the software won't run.
Having said that, my suspicion in the beginning was, and still is, that it was some variable(s) left in an unknown state in the Hyper-V environment, which was why after trying to install Windows 2008 R2 several times I tried Windows 2012 which resulted in
the same error, and then encountered the same error trying to install Windows 7 on the same Hyper-V installation. The specific Hyper-V Windows 2008 R2 server had run without any operating problems for months before I started having trouble, and although it
had been quite a while since I had created VMs, that process used to work. The hardware didn't change. What changed was applying updates through Microsoft Update, and a few access control rights I changed, and at least I think, I set back to their original
value.
So in short, no, my hardware isn't supported by Windows 2008 Server. Two, your assertion that you are running the same software configuration that I am is very unlikely to be true. There are an extremely large number of things which are different between
your test system and mine, such as which Windows 2008 components are installed, what updates were installed and in what order they were installed, and what other third party software each of us is running, and between AD, and all the features, a large number
of potential differences in ACLs, options, etc. and I don't for a minute think this particular problem was caused by the underlying hardware.
I do appreciate your taking the time to try to help me, and I hope there is one thing you and I could agree on. Microsoft could pretty easily make it much easier to isolate problems. In this day and age reporting hex error codes (as opposed to doing the
table lookup in the error handling proc), and not providing more diagnostic information seems to me to be almost quaint. And in this case Microsoft can dismiss my problems on the grounds it was all on unsupported hardware. Unfortunately, I think they
are missing an opportunity to make their software better, because in my opinion what I encountered there are a set of conditions which will cause installations to fail that aren't going to get corrected.

Unable to reinstall WSUS on air-gapped Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 server

A co-worker installed WSUS on an air-gapped (not connected to the Internet) server running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, but he wasn't sure he'd configured everything properly, and asked me to uninstall and reinstall it. The uninstallation went without
a hitch, but reinstalling through the Server Manager gives the error message "The update could not be found. There may be a network connection issue." The Server Manager log shows the following:

Any ideas?

Hi,
0x8024402C WU_E_PT_WINHTTP_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED
Winhttp SendRequest/ReceiveResponse failed with 0x2ee7 error. Either the proxy server or target server name cannot be resolved. Corresponding to ERROR_WINHTTP_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED.
Stop/Restart service or reboot the machine if you see this error frequently.
Since the server is not connect to the internet, at least it should have an available upstream server. Did you configure it correctly? The error message indicate that the
name could not resolved, make sure you can resolve the name of the upstream server. Run nslookup check the result.
If it is the only WSUS, then give it internet connection and test.
Hope this helps.

Upgrade from Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 to Windows Server 2012 R2

Hi, I was trying to setup a new DC for our company, originally it's DC is Windows Server 2003 SP2, we decided not tomigrate it and instead build a new one from scratch which is Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. I was able to set it up, perform windows updates,
added roles, perform Domains and Trusts, etc
When suddenly our global standards shifted to Windows Server 2012 R2, so instead of creating another server from scratch, this is the time to upgrade from 2k8 to 2K12 R2, besides the MAPtool which I've downloaded to check for prerequisites, etc, are there
other things I need to be aware of? backups? etc.
Regards,
Jeff

Hi,
You can
insert Windows Server 2012 R2 DVD into the DVD-ROM and click onRun
Setup.exe. You can refer to the link below:

Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 2-Node cluster - Replace failed node

Hi - I have a two node Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 fail-over cluster (DHCP, File, Print) where one of the nodes have failed beyond recovery. What I would like to do is to evict the failed cluster node and install a new machine with Windows Server 2008
R2 SP1 and re use the same name and Ip adress and then join this machine as a node in the cluster.
Is there any recommended steps to do this, i'm mostly thinking about the part of re-using the same name and ip address for the new node? (e.g. is there any cleanup more than evict the node?)

Hi,
I agree with Noah Sparks, you can evict the corrupt node, if you reinstall then add the new server system you can just join it to cluster, it shouldn’t any error.
If you have seen some the evicted node rejoin to cluster meet “The cluster node is already a member of the cluster” error, it may need pack the KB2549472
hotfix.

Cluster node cannot rejoin the cluster after the node is restarted or removed from the cluster in Windows Server 2008 R2

Management Pack for Windows Server 2008 Enterprise SP1

Hello,
I tried to manage the performance of a Windows Server 2008 Enterprise SP1 (6.0.6001) but SCOM 2007 R2 just check the availability with a ping status.
I have installed the normal management packs:
On the same SCOM, I have servers with Windows Server 2008 R2 and they work perfect.
What can I do?

Hi Journey Tinoco,
Performance can be monitored by using the active alerts TAB where a alert / alerts will be triggered based on the default management pack which you have installed / imported or if you have created a custom monitor based on your preference on what performance
counter you want to monitor on windows server 2008 servers VIA SCOM.
Or you can pull server performance report specific for Windows server 2008 from the reporting TAB as per the below screen shot for details.
The one which you are opened is the health explorer view which is not showing much details.
Go to reporting TAB ===> Select Windows server 2008 operating system monitoring and then What ever appropriate report you need to pull based on your requirement. For example i have pulled a report below for "Operating system performance.
Over here Click object and select the computer name and the icon should be a Windows serve / Computer as per the icon in my screen shot below. Select the time and date from and to the report you want and dont touch the add object option. Once done click
the Run button on the left to you will get the report as below.
Please note: If the below report is what you are looking for is not available in your SCOM's reporting TAB. Then you have not installed the reporting Management pack for Windows server 2008 monitoring. Download
it from the below link.

Hope this helps you.

Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Dynamic Cache tool

I have a memory leak on my Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1(x64) server. I used RamMap to find where the memory was going and I found that it is going to a Mapped File.
I read an article, kb976618, about Dynamic Cache but it says that in order to get the tool for Server 2008 R2 SP1, you have to contact Microsoft Support and in order to do that, you have to give them a credit card or have a service contract.
I tried the link in the article anyway and got a download email from Microsoft that looked like it was for my operating system. I installed it per the instructions but it still says that it cannot start the service because it is for a previous version.
Can anyone help with this? I did notice that the download included a few different folders that all have the DynCach.exe file. Maybe I'm using the wrong one?

Hi,
Please click
here to contact me for the dyncache file for 2008 r2. I will send you the file directly.
