SYMPTOMS
On a multi-hosted Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0 computer, rapidly installing the FrontPage Server Extensions using the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) may result in the extensions installation not completing.



CAUSE
The FrontPage Server Extensions can only be installed to one location at a time.



WORKAROUND
When you use the MMC to install the FrontPage Server Extensions, wait until one virtual server's installation is complete before initiating installation against another virtual server.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft FrontPage 98 for Windows.



MORE INFORMATION
Using the FrontPage Server Administrator to install the extensions gives you a clearer indication of when one site is installed, and you can move on to installing to the next site.
