Error message: "http://server/sites/site_name was not created correctly. Exception: Thread was being aborted."

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

1. Open the Internet Information Services Manager (Start > Run, type inetmgr, and then press ENTER).
2. 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.
3. 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.

4. Select Enable HTTP Keep-Alives (if it is not selected), and then click OK.
5. Restart IIS (at a command prompt, enter iisreset, and then press ENTER).

Change connection time-out properties in the web.config file

1. In a basic text editor such as Notepad, open the web.config file (%SYSTEMDRIVE%\Inetpub\wwwroot by default).
2. Press CTRL + F to open the Find dialog box.
3. Find the following tag:

<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="51200" />

4. Replace it with this tag:

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="6000" maxRequestLength="51200" />

5. Find the following tag (you might need to search from the beginning of the file):

</sectionGroup>

6. 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>

7. Find the following tag:

</SharePoint>

8. Add the following tags on new lines after the </SharePoint> tag:

<DynamicsAX>

<Deployment SiteCreationTimeOut="1200" />

</DynamicsAX>

9. Save your changes and close the web.config file.
10. At the command prompt, type IISReset, and then press ENTER.
11. Try to create the top-level Web site in SharePoint Portal Administration.
