Microsoft’s descriptive errors is 0x8ffe2740 when trying to start an FTP or Web Server from the IIS Administration module. The error itself means that there is a port conflict with another service. This is a relatively easy diagnosis, as you should already know what ports your ftp or web servers use. Use the netstat command in the command console to find out what program is using a particular TCP port. Replace the ## with the port you wish to test. This works on Windows Server 2003 and 2008. netstat -anop TCP|find ":##" The above command will return a PID (process ID). You will need to match that to a running program or service. Type the following command: tasklist /SVC /FI "PID eq ####" Here is an example using port http://www.hanselman.com/blog/UnexpectedError0x8ffe2740OccurredErrorMessageWhenYouTryToStartAWebSite.aspx 21. In this example you can see the "ftpsvc" service is using port 21 through svchost.exe - which is normal. In a client's machine, it was MSUpdate2.exe that was using port 21 - a piece of malware using an FTP server to serve pirated movies!

Restart IIS after this or restart computer. Additionally you can check for other programs like teamViewer, that also try to use port 80. May be a little bit hard to check ports on windows xp, xampp has a program to check ports that is very handy for this kind of things. I hope this can be useful to your problem. share|improve this answer answered Sep 22 '12 at 15:34 Martin 887 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote accepted After restart my system, my problem was solved. share|improve this answer answered Sep 23 '12 at 3:26 user1622824 356 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.
