IIS Install fails staxmem.dll
jonfitt
I am suffering the problem discribed in this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=894351
IIS won't install and complains it can't find staxmem.dll despite it
being there. I have tried method one, and it passes the test, so I am
trying to do method 2.
The problem comes when it says: Put the Windows XP Professional SP2 CD
in the CD drive. At the command prompt, type the following command,
and then press ENTER:
xpsp2 /integrate:Drive:\winxp
I don't have an SP2 CD, I downloaded the update, and there appears to
be no xpsp2.exe anywhere.
Any ideas?

DLL file.
Regarding XPSP2.exe, it's actually referring to the SP2 Network installer
package, which is actually WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-xxx.exe (if you've
downloaded it from the MS site).

If you are installing SP2 from the CD, the service pack installer file is
called Xpsp2.exe. If you are downloading SP2 from the Microsoft Web site,
the installer file is called WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-xxx.exe (xxx stands for
a specific language code, such as ENU for English). Both installer files are
identical, they just have different names.
If you are downloading SP2 from the Web, for the purposes of this document,
use WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-xxx.exe wherever you see Xpsp2.exe.

_THE_REAL_FAST_CURE_
I’ve run into something that does solve your problem.
Go to start -> run and type in “esentutl /p
%windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb”
WITHOUT THE QUOTATION MARKS.
After this run the IIS setup again. You will be requested to insert
Windows XP professional CD.
Everything should be ok now; at least it was for dozens of topic
responders.
I hope it also does for you. Have your Windows XP professional CD
Ready.
