Server 2008 Rollback - HRESULT: -2147024891

Hi,

I'm having an issue with Server 2008 and installing a web application. It's a Hyper-v VM. I can get it to install if I manually create the folders and the virtual webs, but then I can't uninstall it (Error 1603). The log file for the virgin install looks like the following:

InstallShield 10:53:41: Setting property 'enabled' to value 'false' for element 'system.webServer/directoryBrowse'. Old value: '0'. m_sSectionName : 'system.webServer/directoryBrowse'.
InstallShield 10:53:41: getvaluelog
InstallShield 10:53:41: put_value succeeded. get_StringValue now returns '0' with string value 'false'.

The first error logged is an access denied error. Are you installing any web.config files to the physical locations your virtual directory points to? If so, do these config files use XML namespaces?
