Unable to install Relate+ Site
After one day of trouble shooting I've found a solution to this problem. Uninstall Windows 7 Service Pack 1, though this will in turn generate a couple of errors in the IIS. Namely: “Error: Unrecognized attribute ‘setProfileEnvironment’”, pointing to the applicationHost.config. Apparently the problem is known to Microsoft and deleting this attribute will solve it, however my IIS completely stopped working but after deactivating/activating the IIS feature (i.e. reinstall it) I got everything up and running again. After this (rather long) detrour I was able to install Relate+ 2.

I also get this error. I don't see uninstalling Service Pack 1 as an option thou.

I'm getting the same problem now, and nor I see uninstalling SP1 as an option. Is there any other solution for this?
I've installed an empty cms6 site, then trying to install community 4 on this empty site gives me this error.
(Error - Exception calling "WorkerProcessAccounts" with "1" argument(s): "Invalid application pool name")

When I was struggling with this I had the option to unistall SP1, hence, didn't go to the root of the problem. Maby reporting it as a bug would shed some light on this matter?

Just to let you know... I tried to install with the "Install Relate+ Site" option, selecting a new database and a new db user, and got the same error again. So yes, I guess a bug report would be in place. I'll file one now.

Carl R, it was confirmed and I was sent workarounds. One for installing Relate+ Site and one for installing Community on existing site.
For Community 4 on exsisting site you need to download Relate 2 R2 and install on your system, then take the file
C:\[ProgramFiles]\EPiServer\Community\4.1.517.358\Install\Tools\EPiServer.Community.Install.dll
and copy to the same location in the 4.0..517.255 tree. Then it should work.
For Relate+ you need to edit the Install RelatePlus.ps1 in the installation folder to add the AppPoolName to $siteProperties. After the property is added that piece should look like this (last line is new):
$siteProperties = @{
SiteName = $wizard.Site.SiteName;
ApplicationName = $wizard.Site.ApplicationName;
SitePath = $wizard.Site.SitePath;
VppPath = $wizard.Site.ExternalFilesPath;
ExternalFilesPath = $wizard.Site.ExternalFilesPath;
AppPoolName = $wizard.Site.AppPoolName;
}
That how ever will break the signing of the file so you'd have to remove the signing and allow execution of unsigned scripts. Unfortunatly I couldn't manage to get my system allow that so I improvised a bit, applying the fix for Community in this case too - and got it to work!
I copied the file "Install EPiServer Relate.ps1" from install folder of 2.1.0.0 to the same location in the 2.0.0.0 tree. I renamed the file "Install RelatePlus.ps1" to .bak, and then renamed "Install EPiServer Relate.ps1" to "Install RelatePlus.ps1". Voilà! Note that this solution was my own improvised and not something I got from EPiServer. They recommended the former solution.

Thank you Tommy! That did the trick for me too!
I had to set up a new relate+ 2.0 site to be able to reproduce an authentication issue with relate and Active Directory, but was not able to install a new relate site until I found your post. I installed the relate2 R2 and copied the Install EPiServer Relate.ps1 to the Relate 2 installation folder and replaced that with the old ps1-file as you suggested.

Thanks Tommy, your post should really be marked as the answer as uninstalling windows 7 service pack 1 isn't an option for most people.

I’m currently looking to migrate Relate+ 1 to Relate +2 and mainly following the article: http://world.episerver.com/Articles/Items/Migrate-EPiServer-Relate-1-to-EPiServer-Relate-2/
However I get stuck at the starting conditions; “Install a new Relate+ 2 site”. The error I receive is: “Error - Exception calling ‘WorkerProcessAccounts’ with ‘1’ argument(s): ‘Invalid application pool name’”
Repairing the Relate +2 installation does not resolve the problem. I've also tried to install a separate version of CMS 6 and upgrade it with EPiCommunity which yields the same result.. Any clues?
