I'm trying to install Server 10.1 SP1 and the IIS Web Adaptor on a Win2008R2 box, completely clean machine, no previous verions of any Esri Products.

I got Server to install fine, and can open Manager, browse the rest/services folder, etc..

I installed the Web Adaptor SP1 and that's where the trouble begins.

After installation, it will automatically try to open http://localhost/arcgis/webadaptor which returns a 404 not found error
If I change localhost to either the IP or server name I get the WebAdaptor screen.  I enter the server name:6080 for the URL and the Primary Site Admin name/pwd and hit configure and I get an error saying 'Could not find any recognizable digits' and that's it.

Anyone seen this & have any suggestions?

Thanks, Terry

Terry,
The most likely cause of this issue is that the value for Localhost wasn't returning the value that was expected. There is probably an issue with your DNS or your etc/hosts file. Do you have an alias, or multiple NICs or anything like that?
Does it happen the same way in multiple browsers? There could be something in the security causing a confilct as well..
Thanks-

My issue was related to settings in Internet Explorer.  Adding the server name to the Trusted Sites list in IE's security settings solved the problem.
