    <description>&lt;P&gt;I found the issue finally!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It was the post_prov.bat script that had the local "enabledelayedexpansion" set. The problem with that setting is that there is a sanitizing part in the batch file which commented a tag in the applicationhost.config but because of the delayed expansion the "&amp;lt;!-- " became "&amp;lt;--" and therefore corrupted the config file.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi guys&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Since I haven't found any clues yet, I'll try my luck here in asking and hopefully get some more results.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have pretty weird behavior, I provisioned an appstack with an IIS Installation and an App that utilizes the IIS.&lt;BR /&gt;After installation on the provisioning machine, I tested everything, and IIS Manager was opening fine, configs were all correct and the website could be opened.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Now when I attach the appstack to a machine I can't directly open up IIS Manager anymore, because I get the message that it has been blocked by an administrator. But that is not really an issue, since I can circumvent this by pointing the shortcut to the actual iis.mmc. BUT once opened I can't see any websites because the config could not be loaded and services are not started. A quick look into C:\Windows\system32\inetsrv\config showed me that my original applicationhost.config got renamed to&amp;nbsp;applicationhost.config.bak and a new&amp;nbsp;applicationhost.config has been created which is nearly identical to the original except for a few config errors which render the file broken.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My question is, has anybody encountered any similar problems and/or has an idea what could be causing this? Because I would need to go into the config folder, delete the new config, rename the original one back and start all services. As I don't want to explain to everybody using the appstack what to do, I would rather have a more universal solution or at least a workaround that cleans up the mess automatically once the appstack is attached.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I'm using App Volumes Agent 2.16.0.62&lt;BR /&gt;App Volumes Server&amp;nbsp;&lt;SPAN&gt;2.15.0.41&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Horizon 7.7.0 build 11038474&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Oh and even if I was lurking for a long time now, this is my actual first post, so hello community o/&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;cheers&lt;BR /&gt;Stephan&lt;/P&gt;</description>
