Problem & Symptoms
During the installation of the WebSpellChecker Server 5.4.x package on Windows Server utilizing the IIS web server, the installation wizard fails with “Runtime Error (at 135:509): appcmd.exe returned code 3” or “Runtime Error (at 135:509): appcmd.exe returned code 1168”.
Solution
To fix the issue with a runtime error, you need to edit the web.config file (...\WebSpellChecker\WebComponents\WebInterface\script\) as in the example below:
web.config
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <security> <requestFiltering> <requestLimits maxUrl="20480" maxQueryString="18432" /> </requestFiltering> </security> <handlers> <add name="WscFastCgi" path="ssrv.*" verb="*" modules="FastCgiModule" scriptProcessor="C:\Program Files\WebSpellChecker\WebComponents\WebInterface\script\ssrv.exe" /> </handlers> </system.webServer> </configuration>
