Failed to enable ASP.NET web extensions. Installation will not continue - Mail Security 6
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 12 comments
Hi all...
I've recently purchased Mail Security 6.0.3.201 for the company I am working for and attempting to install it on my Windows Server 2003 64 bit + Exchange 2007 server.
However, after confirming all options and proceeding with the install, a DOS window quickly pops up then out (too quick to see what's displayed), and an error dialog box appears displaying...
"Failed to enable ASP.NET web extensions. Installation will not continue."
and the installer Finishes.
It appears that this error message is unique as I haven't been able to find any articles anywhere.
I've made sure that Active Server pages, ASP.NET 2.050727 are set to allowed in IIS Manager. No joy!
Here is the content of the SMSMSE60_Setup.log file...

I had this same problem. It took 4 calls to symantec (and we have platnium support). I got a person that pointed me at this KB article and then I wound up stumbling onto the real solution by accident.
Try this.
Navigate to c:\windows\inf\wsh.inf
Right click the wsh.inf file and select install. This will reinstall the windows scripting host and associate itself with .vbs. After this try to run the symantec installer. It should work for you now!
Let me know if you have success.
Hi Kevin,
I tried solution which you told to try but not positive success, Still i am getting same error which is mentioned by David T. in the top.
Could you tell me what all services need to be running or stopped during Symantec Mail security installation.
I had the same problem, and there isnt any information on the web directly relating to this. However, in my case, it came down to it really being an ASP issue. Run through this article and try to install again.

Let me know if that helps!
Thanks,
Lucas Keller
Thanks a lot. Worked for me with the IIS 6 compatibilty :-)
Lance,
The IIS 6 compatibility option is part of the Windows Operating system, not a setting in Symantec Mail Security.
In Windows 2008 you have server roles one of which leads to installing IIS 7.
But SMS is not compatible with IIS 7 as is, you have to add the IIS 6 backwards compatibility option.
That way SMS can use IIS 6 scripting to configure the IIS server to create the SMS website.
Also worked for me with the IIS 6 compatibilty :-)
Thanks! This worked for me.

The IIS compatability worked perfectly for us, too. Thank you!
