Not really sure where to go from here. Trying to install Sitecore 9 and have gotten to this point and can't seem to get beyond it. It tells me that the property value cannot be found, but I have no idea what property value or how to even turn more debug information on - note I change the name to something.xconnect - it was using the correct prefix because it did set up the website in IIS and created the folder under the webroot(C:\inetpub\wwwroot\something.xconnect) as I would have expected. Any pointers to help get me on track would be greatly appreciated since this is my first install and it is turning out to be painful. I know that there was anothing post similar related to value and I checked those things and it didn't seem like it was any of those things, but went through and did check that before posting this.

[------------------------------------------- CreateWebsite : Website -------------------------------------------------] [CreateWebsite]:[Exists] something.xconnect [CreateWebsite]:[Setting] applicationPool => something.xconnect [CreateWebsite]:[Setting] physicalPath => C:\inetpub\wwwroot\something.xconnect [--------------------------------------------- StopWebsite : ManageWebsite -------------------------------------------] [StopWebsite]:[Stop] something.xconnect

Command start time: 20181002193908

  • Are you using skype in the same machine during installation? If so, quit skype. Also make sure you are using 64 bit powershell interface.

  • Unfortunately for my sake, I was not running skype at the time and was using the 64 bit powershell interface. Thanks for giving me something to look at, but still not working.

  • I am installing version 9.3.0 and I got similar error like this. I had to delete what was created in IIS (identity server and application pool) - website was empty, bind only to port 80 and due to that not running.

I got the similar error when installing the sitecore using SIF.I verified different configurations but finally found that IIS was not started. So i started IIS and error is gone.

    Wow.. This has helped me! Wish the error message was better or may be smart enough to start IIS itself.
