James saved me many hours of pain..
Gotta love the internet. The Tubes.
I was trying to install\reinstall IIS in Windows Server 2008 and it would not install.
Web Server (IIS)
Error: Attempt to install IIS Management Console failed with error code 0x80070643. Fatal error during installation
Error: Attempt to install Static Content Compression failed with error code 0x80070643. Fatal error during installation
Error: Attempt to install HTTP Logging failed with error code 0x80070643. Fatal error during installation

The following role services were not installed:
Web Server
Common HTTP Features
Static Content
Default Document
Directory Browsing
HTTP Errors
Health and Diagnostics
HTTP Logging
Request Monitor
Security
Request Filtering
Performance
Static Content Compression
Management Tools
IIS Management Console
Before I spent any number of hours tshooting this , I decided to hit the internet with a quick search. I held out little hope of finding a resolution for such a horrid looking error.
But - within 2 links I hit on this one -- https://social.technet.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/winserversetup/thread/1486efdd-1dbb-477a-9c9e-af8a8fb81c24/
Hoorah!!
Here's to you James B White from C.S.H. Consultants Pty Ltd. - your attitude of "This has been raised before, however that person opted for a reinstall before it got anywhere. I really dont want to do that." saved me a boatload of time this morning. Thanks to you, I fixed it between eating breakfast and brushing my teeth.
One more thing - just in case the link above goes away - here was James resolution:
de-feature "WAS" Windows Process Activation Service (note it deleted more of the IIS roles or said it was)
re-role IIS7 & IIS6 and all subroles - worked okay
re-feature "WAS" Windows Process Activation Service - worked okay
