| Event Information | According to Microsoft : Cause : This event is logged when the Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) provisioning process failed to delete the AD RMS virtual directory. Resolution : Delete AD RMS virtual root directories AD RMS uses an Internet Information Services (IIS) virtual directory, named _wmcs, to host all AD RMS Web services. The AD RMS administrator account (the user account installing AD RMS) must have read, write, and delete access to this virtual directory, and the files in this virtual directory must not be in use. If the AD RMS administrator account does not have the appropriate access to the AD RMS virtual directory or the directory is in use, the installation will fail. You must delete the AD RMS virtual directory and install AD RMS again. Use the "Delete the AD RMS virtual root directories" procedure to delete the AD RMS virtual roots. Once this is done, use the "Install the AD RMS role by using Server Manager" procedure to install AD RMS again. Note To perform these procedures, you must be a member of the localAdministrators group, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
