To be honest..the log file from the installation is the most useless collection of bits and bytes i've ever seen.
"we are not running in a high resolution so we're going to use another image for this background" or something along those lines??? There's line after line after line of rubbish in it...i haven't tried using WiLogUtil yet with it, but if i'm missing something vital in that file then it's seriously hidden well - anyways, i'll give that a try and see if it can dig something up for me. The event log does say that the exception is a IdentityNotMapped exception though that's not of much help at the moment.

Just a random thought, I haven't had cause to use it on a WSS log, but it has given me joy on other systems. HTH James ----- Original Message ----- From: Brian H. Madsen <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2008 1:28 AM Subject: [OzMOSS] Sharepoint SP1 installation failure Hey Guys, I'm hoping somebody here can shed some light on a problem i'm facing. I have a virtual environment (my development environment) which is a self-contained domain/sql/sharepoint server + development tools - and i'm trying to install Sharepoint SP1. I install WSS 3.0 SP1, close the configuration manager, run the Sharepoint SP1 installation and then the configuration manager (as has been advices all over the interweb). Both installs just fine. But, the configuration manager dies just after i've been informed that i have to run the update on all farm servers etc. I click "OK" and then BANG - it fails. The error is an IdentityNotMapped exception. I cannot, for the life of me get this resolved. After this, naturally WSS and Sharepoint is dead. Cannot roll it back so i have to bring up one of my virtual image backups (yes, virtulisation does have its uses). Does anybody have any ideas as to what is causing this? I've checked the credentials for the SQL Server, the service accounts and the application pools..everything is honky dorry. I've tried to install this update 8-9 times so far - all have failed at approximately the same place each time.
