Hi,
This error occurs because of a connection time-out after you select the Microsoft Dynamics AX template while creating a new top-level Web site in Windows SharePoint Administration. To resolve this problem, follow these procedures:
- Change the Connection timeout and Http Keep-Alive properties on the server that runs IIS.
- Change connection time-out properties in the web.config file.
Change the Connection timeout and HTTP Keep-Alive properties on the server that runs IIS
- Open the Internet Information Services Manager (Start > Run, type inetmgr, and then press ENTER).
- Expand the local computer, expand the Web sites directory, right-click the Web site that hosts your Enterprise Portal site (typically the Default Web site), and then clickProperties.
- On the Web Site tab, specify a new value in the Connection timeout field. The default value is 120 seconds.
If for example, the server requires up to 4 minutes to create a new site using EP templates, specify a value of 240 seconds.
- Select Enable HTTP Keep-Alives (if it is not selected), and then click OK.
- Restart IIS (at a command prompt, enter iisreset, and then press ENTER).
Change connection time-out properties in the web.config file
- In a basic text editor such as Notepad, open the web.config file (%SYSTEMDRIVE%Inetpubwwwroot by default).
- Press CTRL + F to open the Find dialog box.
- Find the following tag:
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength=”51200″ />
- Replace it with this tag:
<httpRuntime executionTimeout=”6000″ maxRequestLength=”51200″ />
- Find the following tag (you might need to search from the beginning of the file):
</sectionGroup>
- Add the following tags on new lines after the </sectionGroup> tag:
<sectionGroup name=”DynamicsAX”>
<section name=”Deployment” type=”System.Configuration.SingleTagSectionHandler, System, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089″ />
</sectionGroup>
- Find the following tag:
</SharePoint>
- Add the following tags on new lines after the </SharePoint> tag:
<DynamicsAX>
<Deployment SiteCreationTimeOut=”1200″ />
</DynamicsAX>
- Save your changes and close the web.config file.
- At the command prompt, type IISReset, and then press ENTER.
- Try to create the top-level Web site in SharePoint Portal Administration.
