Cannot Connect to the Configuration Database Error

Hi,
The problem you are experiencing usually occurs if ASP.NET and IIS 6.0 are installed on the server prior the promotion of the server to a domain controller. In the following order below, the problem occurs under these conditions:
The ASP.NET and IIS 6.0 were installed on a member server
The Dcpromo.exe tool was used to endorse the member server to a domain controller
On the domain controller, the Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 was installed

Basin from this one, you do not have enough permission of the Network Service group to the Temporary ASP.NET files folder located on the domain controller. To resolve this issue, do the following:
Go to Startup button, click Run, type cmd, and press OK
Locate the specified directory:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727 folder. This folder location is where Windows was installed. Type the following command below to implement this one, and then press Enter:

cd Drive:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727
The appropriate permissions should be added to the Network Service group to be able to access the Temporary ASP.NET folder. Type the following command below to implement this one, and then press Enter:

aspnet_regiis –ir
