I've installed Microsoft SharePoint 2010 on my Windows 7 64bits machine. I've modified the config.xml file to accomplish this.

Once it's installed I run the Configuration Wizard to create a new site and it throws me the following exception:

An exception of type System.IO.FileNotFoundException was thrown. Additional exception information: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.IdentityModel, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.IdentityModel, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. File name: 'Microsoft.IdentityModel, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFarm.CurrentUserIsAdministrator(Boolean allowContentApplicationAccess) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPConfigurationDatabase.Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.ISPPersistedStoreProvider.DoesCurrentUserHaveWritePermission(SPPersistedObject persistedObject) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPPersistedObject.BaseUpdate() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFarm.Update() at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPConfigurationDatabase.RegisterDefaultDatabaseServices(SqlConnectionStringBuilder connectionString) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPConfigurationDatabase.Provision(SqlConnectionStringBuilder connectionString) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPFarm.Create(SqlConnectionStringBuilder configurationDatabase, SqlConnectionStringBuilder administrationContentDatabase, IdentityType identityType, String farmUser, SecureString farmPassword, SecureString masterPassphrase) at Microsoft.SharePoint.PostSetupConfiguration.ConfigurationDatabaseTask.CreateOrConnectConfigDb() at Microsoft.SharePoint.PostSetupConfiguration.ConfigurationDatabaseTask.Run() at Microsoft.SharePoint.PostSetupConfiguration.TaskThread.ExecuteTask()

Note: I don't have the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 64bits installed, but SharePoint 2010 seems that installed its necessary components.

I fixed this by taking the following steps:

1.) "Re-installing" the WCF Activation Fix that you should have installed as a pre-requisite. It should tell you that you already have this installed.

2.) Rerun the Config Wizard.

No idea why this worked, but it did.

**I would also verify that .NET is installed correctly and that it is configured correctly for use in IIS.

I had the same problem before but it gives me the file not found exception about this assembly : Microsoft.IdentityModel, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35

i installed the Windows Identity Foundation and solved my problem. here is the link
