 Pope Paschal II - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The imperial Diet at Mainz invited Paschal to visit Germany and settle the trouble in January 1106, but the pope in the Council of Guastalla (October 1106) simply renewed the prohibition of investiture.
Towards the end of his pontificate trouble began anew in England; Paschal complaining (1115) that councils were held and bishops translated without his authorization, and threatening Henry I with excommunication.
On the death of the countess Matilda, who had bequeathed all her territories to the Church (1115), the emperor at once laid claim to them as imperial fiefs and forced the pope to flee from Rome.

 History of the Mass (15histot.htm)
With the latter's death in 1099, Pope Paschal II was chosen to carry on, but he was embroiled in the bitter infighting between the triumverate of factions: the German kingdom and Roman patricians, who while not allies, were unified against the reformers.
Paschal's ambition to unify all factions and to insist on the reform principles, as well as the supremacy of the pontiff, backfired badly and he was forced to sign a concession that greatly weakened the Church politically.
Paschal saw it as a chance for reconciliation with the empire and the papacy but alas the son was of the same mind-frame regarding lay investiture.

 Popes   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Although Paschal fostered the First Crusade and followed Gregory's great policies of church reform, his pontificate was dominated by the Investiture Controversy - the long conflict between popes and secular rulers over control of ecclesiastical appointments.
Paschal's struggles with the Holy Roman emperors Henry IV and Henry V, however, proved inconclusive.
Paschal finally revoked the privilege in 1112 and renewed his earlier condemnations of regal investiture in 1116.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Callistus II
Callistus II left Reims to attend the conference at Mousson, but on learning of the warlike preparations made by the emperor, and fearing that force was likely to be used to extract from him prejudicial concessions, he hastily returned to Reims.
Here it was agreed that a general truce should be proclaimed between the emperor and his rebellious subjects; that the Church should have free use of her possessions; that the lands of those in rebellion should be restored, and peace with the Church permanently established with the least possible delay.
Owing mainly to him the concessions so weakly made by Paschal II were recalled, and on his own accession to the papal throne, his firmness and strength of character secured a settlement of the controversy between Church and State which, though not entirely satisfactory, was at least sufficient to assure a much needed peace.
