Failed to Create the Configuration Database Error in SharePoint 2010

SharePoint Products Configuration Wizard
Configuration Failed
Failed to create the configuration database
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.



Cause.

This error is not related to installing or configuring SQL Server 2008 for SharePoint 2010. This error is about the Geneva Framework.

Solution.

Please uninstall the Geneva Framework. Run SharePoint 2010 setup and click on "Install Software Prerequisites" to download and install the version of Geneva Framework needed by SharePoint 2010.
