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.
Glad to hear you solved it.
Unfortunately you will find this is a pretty common issue doing onpremise deployments. So many moving parts that there will always be issues like this.
