I have installed IIS in my system (WINDOWS-XP). While i am seeing IIS window, the Default web site is in stop mode. when i am ready to start IIS. It shows "Unexpected error 0x8ffe2740 occurred"
Finally, I discovered that its caused by Skype. It listens to port 80 for incoming call. Now, most of the time IIS starts before Skype starts. So IIS works but if you restart IIS or try to start IIS after Skype is started then you will get this error message.
For this, I changed my Skype settings
Skype File-> Options -> Connection
Uncheck Use Port 80 as an alternative for incoming connections.
But even though i am unable to start my IIS.
Please help me some one..
Thanks.
