I am trying to configure Windows Service Bus (1.1) using Service Bus Configuration Wizard. I am getting below error when I try to configure it. Can anybody tell me what is the problem.

Look in \Windows\System32\drivers\etc and edit the hosts file - In my case I noticed that I had localhost defined more than once. Even though they were all set to 127.0.0.1 it still seems to have confused the Service Bus config.

I removed the duplicates and then it worked.
