problem with SCCM and it's application catalog

[mattdowding]

Hi guys,

 

Firstly apologies if this has been asked before, but after spending an afternoon putting a hole in my desk with my repeated beating of desk with head, I decided to see if someone out there in the big wide world has had this issue before.

 

Basically I am setting up latest version of SCCM 2012 (following the guides from this site, BRILLIANT guides i must add) and I've activated the Software Centre's application catalog but every time I navigate to the website, it gives me a 'cannot connect to the application server' error. after googling for a bit, I came across the 'install WCF Activation and HTTP Activation features and make sure .NET v4 is active' to fix it. I have done that a couple of times but I still get the error.

 

I've googled, looked for the logs (can't find which one might help), beaten my desk some more and nearly reinstalled the server from scratch...

 

Is there anyone who can help/point me in the right direction???

 

Many thanks!

Matt

Did you read this before? Check out the prerequisites for site system roles section, and make sure you got all needed IIS roles installed.

 

"3 In some scenarios, such as when IIS is installed or reconfigured after the .NET Framework version 4.0 is installed, you must explicitly enable ASP.NET version 4.0. For example, on a 64-bit computer that runs the .NET Framework version 4.0.30319, run the following command: %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_regiis.exe –i –enable"
