Windows Server 2008 hangs in "Applying computer settings" after installing Sharepoint 2010

Hi!
I have a server which is designated to be a Sharepoint server, I have successfully installed the server, SQL server R2 and Sharepoint 2010, but right after Sharepoint Server 2010 is installed the nex time I reboot the machine it hangs in "Applying computer
settings" I have tried reinstalling the server several times, improving the server specs.
The installations run just fine I can even see the sharepoint site, and make any configuration, the issue comes when I restart the server (for updates for example..)
Can someone help me with this issue?
Thanks in advance
Carlos R Vargas M

Hi,
It may take some time for configuration after the new installation. Please wait patiently. If it still hangs, please refer to the following article:

Clients hangs at "Applying Computer Settings" for 10 + Minutes intermittantly

On a handful of our machines we are experiencing an issue with long hangs at Applying Computer Settings before getting to the logon screen.
I have checked for network and domain issues but everything seems to be working as expected and for the majority there hasn't been any issues.
I ran the userenv log and have received the following, most notably the long delay at 17:03:33...

I had enabled GPSVC debugging and attached a link in my initial post. Thanks for the reference for the policy reporter, it makes the readability a whole lot easier.
Below is a small excerpt of where it appears my long wait is coming from, although correct me if i'm wrong but the problem could be somewhere else and it just so happens that it's at this of the boot process that it's brought to light due to a dependency

Server stucks at Applying Computer Settings after every reboot

Hello!
On one of our sites containing around 15 servers, whenever a terminal server is rebooted, it gets stuck on Applying Computer Settings for around 15 minutes. If it is un-joined from the domain then no issue. Moreover, once it is done with this delay, no time
delay is observed in user login. But after every reboot, 15 - 20 mins delay is always observed. Domain is the same at other sites and no issue is being observed else where.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server forum.
In addition, for a test please try to modify the behavior of HTTP.SYS to depend on another service being started first. To do this, perform the following steps:
1. Open Registry Editor
2. Navigate to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\HTTP and create the following Multi-string value:
DependOnService
3. Double click the new DependOnService entry
4. Type CRYPTSVC in the Value Data field and click OK.
5. Reboot the server
NOTE: Please ensure that you make a backup of the registry / affected keys before making any changes to your system.

.chm on Windows Server 2008 hangs on a hyperlink to an embedded .xls file

This link has not caused problems on Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2003. On Windows Server 2008, if a user attempts to go to the link he gets the option to open or save the file. Either option causes an "application crash". The .xls is actually contained within the .chm.
Is there a security setting we need to know about?

CHMs themselves are not intended to work on a server, as described in http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/chm_mspatch/896358.htm
Maybe Microsoft have extended the security but I have not seen anything reported here.

CF10 on Windows server 2008 (64bit): 32-bit CF cannot be installed, but 64-bit can.

Hi, I have exhaused my research and ways of fixing this issue.
I have a Windows Server 2008 (64-bit).
I am able to install 64-bit CF10 on it and CF websites run just fine.
On the same machine, I have a ASP website that must be in run in 32-bit and within this website there are some ColdFusion pages. So I have to install CF10 32 bit. So I uninstalled CF10 64bit.
When installing CF10 32 bit, I always got error message:
Cannot configure IIS connector. Enable the required option ASP.NET, ISAPI Extensions and ISAPI Filter in IIS under Windows Features and try again.
I did lot of online research and found RELATED posts, but none of them worked for me. Basically, in my case I have the IIS following installed
ISAPI Extensions
ISAPI Filter
ASP.NET
CGI
but I alway got the above error message. Cannot think of other reasons.
Any help is really appreciated!!! I have been working on this thing for the past three working days.
Regards.

Hi,
I saw your post which is similar to the problem I'm trying to solve. I'm not sure if I need to post a new topic, but I thought just add it to your post.
I installed CF10-64bit on Windows 2008 server (64 bit). When I opened the CF admin, it gave me an error - HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error. The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred. Module: IsapiModule, Handler: cfmHandler, Error Code: 0x800700c1. After searching for solution in the internet, I finally made it work after changing the DefaultAppPool which is used by the CFIDE in the advance settings, the "Enable 32-bit Applications" to False.
Now, my problem is I have an ASP application which requires that the application pool advance settings must be set to True for "Enable 32-bit Applications". I created another application pool for this application. It woks fine. However, this ASP application calls some CF pages and I'm having a problem because the CF10 is set to use a different application pool with diferent setting for "Enable 32-bit Applications".
In order for my application to work, it seems that I need to install the CF10 32 bit version. Am I right? Or is there a work around for my issue?
Thanks in advance for any help.
I'm going to create a new post for this.

CSA and Windows Server 2008 hangs

We're having a problem where we install CSA 6.0.2.130 on a Windows 2008 server running IIS and the server hangs after login. Screen goes blank, mouse pointer is there but the system is unresponsive. It is possible to start Task Manager and it shows almost all services stopped (but CSA running). Stopping CSA service returns function to the server. However, after all the services have started, if we try to start the CSA, then the server hangs again.
Looking in the CSA log files doesn't show anything major. There are some references to the management center being not reachable but they resolve themselves.
Any ideas where to look? We've tried disabling A/V, reinstalling, etc.

This sounds potentially like bug CSCtg98849. There is a workaround that should allow you to continue running with CSA enabled:
Edit the "Base - Digital Signing of Downloaded Executables" rule module and disable the file access control "Send downloaded executables for scanning if opened for read".
Save the change.
Generate rules and deploy to affected hosts.

Windows Server 2008 R2 hangs on Welcome screen

Hi people,
I'm running Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter with Hyper-V role installed. This is production server DELL PowerEdge R710 with 72GB memory. Since few months ago I had problem, from time to time, to RDP to server because it was taking too much time to pass
from Welcome screen to desktop. Last week when i restarted it I couldn't login to it at all, it hangs on Welcome screen for hours. Well I'm aware of Microsoft walktrought and i used devnodeclean /r and after 2 hours it cleaned registry from ghost drives created
by DPM and after restart i still got a problem. I can't install hotfix from safe mode so i can't really try that solution. Same thing with Welcome screen hanging is happening when i: RDP to it with msft rdp, with visionapp, dell drac kvm console and directly
on server. Virtual machines on it is working and i can access Hyper-V from other server console untill i try to login and then RPC service fialed.

Hello,
Start by running msconfig and disable all startup items / services except Microsoft ones. Once done, restart the server and check results.
Also, update all possible drivers especially the graphic card one.

Parallels Desktop getting Stuck on "Applying Computer Settings"

I get it installed and updated, but everytime I complete the installation of PC-cillin Internet Security 2006 and reboot, Windows XP hangs on 'Applying Computer Settings.'
Anyone have a clue what to due to advance it beyond this point? I have uninstalled and and reinstalled it already one and applied all updated.

No, I dont think so as I had XP running fine and in
fact even had it hooked into my local home Windows
2003 server on my home domain.
Has to be something with PC-cillin.
James, sorry, what I meant was your title says "Parallels Desktop getting Stuck", and to me it sounds like Parallels is working fine, its XP that is stuck on "Applying Computer Settings"? (could very well be PC-cillin, just not sure if Parallels is the issue)
Some Windows XP docs on it:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/832161
(mentions trying to unplug the network cable to see if it loads that way)
http://steven.vorefamily.net/2004/06/windows-xp-hangs-applying-computer.html
http://microsoft.mailarchive.ca/public.windowsxp.security_admin/2004-10/2366.htm l
(DNS issues)
I don't see any specific issues mentioned on the Parallels board about PC-cillin, I guess the easiest thing is to boot into safe mode, remove PC-cillin completely and restart without it. I've run AVG on my XP copy running on Parallels with no issues. Good luck!
(you might also ask this on the Parallels forum board: http://forum.parallels.com/forum53.html

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)
[http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/3/sorunc.jpg/|http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/3/sorunc.jpg/]

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,

Hi,
I don’t found the similar issue, if you have the IE 11 please try to update system automatic or install the MS14-029 update.

You cannot shadow a session with multiple monitors enabled in Windows Server 2008 R2

Searching through the forums (and according to KB2484290) it appears that there is no solution to this problem. We are rolling out thin clients that are using dual monitors exclusively and we were very surprised to find out that we couldn't shadow
sessions with dual monitors (which to us means that we can't shadow ANY sessions). This now completely changes our approach to managing these devices.
We are running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 with Remote Desktop Services installed. The thin clients are running Windows Embedded Standard 7 with the latest updates / RDP client. All steps have been followed to ensure that the apropriate settings and
permissions have been set up to allow access into the session.
We tested by unchecking the RDP setting “use all my monitors for the remote session”, with that setting disabled shadowing worked
Questions:
1. KB2484290 is from Dec 2010 - It's now April 2012, is there a workaround / hotfix for this issue that will allow us to shadow sessions using the native Microsoft tools?
2. Are there any recommended alternatives (software)? Free/Paid - doesn't matter we just need something that will work. I'm sure there are a few options out there but I am looking for suggestions for what people have used in the past that worked
best for them to help us narrow down the choices.

Hi,
In my experience, so far, the workaround is Remote Assistance, Remote Assistance supports multiple monitors, and is the presently recommended solution if you need this functionality. Remote Assistance is a Windows Server Feature that must be explicitly installed
on Windows Server 2008 R2; it is already installed with the client versions of the operating system.

CF9 install on Windows server 2008 error

I am getting the following error message when attempting to run the installer for CF9:
Microsoft VC++ 2008 Runtime
Installer has determined that Microsoft Visual C++ 2008
Redistributable Package is not installed. Select OK to install now.
To perform your own installation, select CANCEL. After installation
restart the installer to continue.
this is Windows Server 2008 R2 brand new.
Then I installed the :
The Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2008 installed
vcredist_x86.exe

Restart the server, Reinstall CF9, same message.
I do not dare to contiune without help and certitude it will run correctly.
Please Help ,
I just bought it from the store
I even do not know how to contact Adobe, I am in France.
Pierre.

Well, I answer myself,
It needs to install the Visual C++runtime 64bits (not 32bits)
vcredist_x64.exe
Then, I still have the message, but we just have to say OK, and it will install
coorectly with Visual C++ runtime too.
Problem solved.

Installing Oracle 10g on Windows Server 2008

Hi,
I want to install Oracle 10g on Windows Server 2008. As per Oracle, I should install 10.2.0.3 and then apply patchset 10.2.0.4.
For that, one has to sign in to metalink which is possible only for customers. I am
using Oracle only for educational purposes for now. Is there any other way of using Oracle 10g on Windows 2008?
Thanks,
Vladi

Of course if you don't have support and for educational purpose only , you should compromise a little by either install other OS or get virtual machine like VMware.
Or stay with 10.2.0.3, that should work in most cases.

Upgrade Oracle 11.1.0.6.0 x64 to Oracle 11.1.0.7.0 for Windows Server 2008

Hi,
I am a little confused because I have Windows Server 2008 64 bit operating system and had installed Oracle 11g 11.1.0.6.0 (x64) prior to the Oracle 11g 11.1.0.7.0 for Windows Server 2008 install package becoming available.
My database needs no backup of data as it is a fresh installation so its removal is not a problem.
To now upgrade to Oracle 11g 11.1.0.7.0 for Windows Server 2008 do I need to
a) Uninstall Oracle 11.1.0.6.0 (x64) and then install Oracle 11.1.0.7.0 on Windows Server 2008
or
b) Apply patch 6890831 (will this upgrade from 11.1.0.6.0 x64 to 11.1.0.7.0 for Windows Server 2008?)
Any help much appreciated as having looked at documentation I am still confused what I need to do.
Thanks.

Issue Installing SP2 for Windows Server 2008 SP1

Hello, I have a very annoying issue, and I hope someone can help a bro out.
Server: Windows Server 2008 SP1 64-bit
Issue: SP2 wont install on Windows Server 2008 SP1
This is what I am seeing when I check the event viewer:
1. (Information) Windows Servicing is setting package KB948465(Service Pack) state to Staging(Staging)
2. (Error) Windows Servicing failed to complete the process of changing update 948465-382_neutral_GDR from package KB948465(Service Pack) into Staging(Staging) state
I have no idea why this is coming up, nor why the server cant fix the issue, but now I am forced to deal with it. So if anyone has any helpful tips it would be greatly appreciated.
What I have done so far:
I have downloaded the standalone SP2 file from microsoft, and tried to install, still failed. Just sent me to the prereq page, which is pretty useless considering the fact I already have SP1 installed, and nothing new has changed physically or digitally
in the system.
Also, although not a huge issue, I also have a security update that is failing, basically with the same issue as the SP. Below is its Error event log.
(Error) Windows Servicing failed to complete the process of changing update 974318-11_neutral_LDR from package KB974318(Security Update) into Staging(Staging) state
Im hoping that upon discovering the SP issue, I can resolve the security update issue, as the errors have the same issue(failed to complete staging state).Thank you for your time.
~I will provide any further info if needed.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction Milos. Yes I ALWAYS google my issues before going on forums for help. And to no avail. However, below is the relevant info(sorry I did not post this the first time;first time dealing with an issue like this,
so I wasnt for shore what relevant data pertained to this issue):
I also did not copy and paste the entire log in here(obviously) because its huge, however I will post link to full file if requested/needed, but hopefully I grabbed the entire log for my SP2 update failure issue. All I can grab from this log is that the
CBS failed. However, I have no clue where to go after that..
