Sharepoint Install Failed - Unable to locate hosts file

This is a similar one to the server language reg file disappearing. After uninstalling MOSS the hosts file sometimes uninstalls as well and therefore cannot be found when you try to reinstall MOSS.

To fix it:

Either copy a hosts file from your computer or make one in notepad. Save it on the SP server in the Windows / System 32 / drivers / etc / hosts directory.

Run the SP Configuration Wizard again.
