Re: Ex 07 SP1 on Srv 08 Hub Transport installation error   

Sounds like you unchecked IPv6 which typically causes the HUB role to 
fail to install and if you do this after it's installed, I causes the 
service to fail.  You need to either re-enable IPv6 or completely 
disable IPv6 from the registry or do some work in the hosts file 
depending on which services are installed.  If I am correct about IPv6 
being the culprit, I'd have a look at the following document so you can 
correctly determine whether you should use the registry or loopback 
method if you indeed want to continue with IPv6 disabled.
