Cannot install Sharepoint 2016 on Server 2016
Based on the log, you seem to be encountering this issue https://www.vioreliftode.com/index.php/sharepoint-2016-it-preview-there-was-an-error-during-installation/.
There are a couple of solution options towards the end of the post.
The first line indicates an error in the IIS role, worth checking the logs to see if there is anything more specific there.
"Web Server (IIS) Role: configuration error"
Here is the log file.
It repeats this multiple times:
"2016-11-15 07:42:31 - Request for install time of Web Server (IIS) Role"

Richard,
Thank you very much for that. I was looking for hours. Hopefully it works, I'll try it.
Cheers!
So, the article still didn't work but a comment below the article pointed to the solution.
This must be run on the server in Powershell:
(You must remove Application-Server and AS-Web-Support (credit to chequers))
Add-WindowsFeature Web-Server,windows-identity-foundation,`NET-Framework-45-ASPNET,Web-Mgmt-Console,Web-Mgmt-Compat,Web-Metabase,`Web-Lgcy-Mgmt-Console,Web-Lgcy-Scripting,Web-Mgmt-Tools,Web-WMI,`Web-Common-HTTP,NET-HTTP-Activation,NET-Non-HTTP-Activ,NET-WCF-HTTP-Activation45 ` -Source 'D:\sources\sxs'
This really needs to be fixed with a new ISO image. There's no way that should be required on a new server.
Thanks again.
