Hi,
I'm running Windows 7 RC and tried to install MOSS 2007 SP2; the binaries installed without issues but configuration wizard fails with the following error in the ULS log:
06/27/2009 14:34:23 7 INF Creating a new farm with config db SharePoint_Config content db Admin_Content server ricalowin7\sql2005 for farm mode06/27/2009 14:34:34 7 ERR Task configdb has failed with an unknown exception 06/27/2009 14:34:34 7 ERR Exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.Upgrade.SPUpgradeException: One or more types failed to load.

Looks like it fails to register some assemblies but I don't know how to correct the error or which assemblies are failing.
PSConfigUI (or psconfig) is running with elevated privileges; has anyone found something like this?
Thanks!
Its finally running on my Windows 7 RTM x64 machine!!
My first guess that Visual Studio 2010 Beta1 was the culprit was wrong ... Uninstalling it didn't help. It seems the cause of the problem was Office 2010! I had Office 2010, Visio 2010 and Info Path 2010 (Technical Preview) installed. After uninstalling all of them the configuration wizard finally succeeded! Moss SP2 is running!
Good luck!
ricalo,
I have seen similar things when custom services have been installed and then uninstalled WITHOUT the installer cleaning up the registration.

OMG, then my installation could be messed... thanks, I'll check and post if I find anything.
Was there any successful resolution to this one? I am having the same problem, although WSS works just fine. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi Jonas,I have the same Error/CallStack on my Windows 7 RTM. The config DB is being created, the Admin DB not.

Edit:Fusion Log did not reveal any errors except ressource files running the configuration wizard.
René,
I will try to install on Windows7 RTM and see if I can reproduce this. I will post an update later.
Thanks
Hi Jonas,
I tried to install every patch in the SP2 (WSS and MOSS). But that did not help.Permissions on the registry did not help either
Jonas-
Ditto for me as well. I have installed all available patches and I still receive the error. I have also turned off UAC and ran a procmon to see if I could find any registry access errors. Nothing.
Thanks for your help.
I'm having the same issue with Windows 7 RTM x64. WSS 3.0 runs perfectly. The installation of MOSS is working but the configuration wizard gives the error.
I tried MOSS SP1 + Upgrades and even a MOSS SP2 slipstreamed. Nothing worked. Its a pity that the error log does not show which assemblies cannot be registered ...
eric,
Thanks for posting the solution here.
I got it working, too
Except Outlook, I uninstalled all of the Office 2010 Technical Preview.
Then I installed all except Outlook from Office 2007 SP2 again.
After that, the configuration wizard went through all steps.
Hi!I am facing the same problem on windows 2008 R2 X64. I recently upgraded to SQL 2K8 R2 and had to rerun the SP products and technologies configuration wizard. I am consistently getting the same error. No O2K10 installed. Any pointers.

Eric,
Thanks a lot, now the wizard runs through all its steps.
Just to add, I uninstalled Office in "batches" cause I have all the suite, here's what I did (maybe we can narrow the problem a little bit)
No need to uninstall Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook or any of the shared components or "Tools".
Tomorrow I'll try installing Visio, Project, Designer, OWC, Communicator, LiveMeeting, InfoPath and OneNote back.
Thanks again!
