I have a problem where I am trying to isntall emc's documentum e-room. I have already posted on their forum with no help.

I have two 2003 servers. One has sql server 2000 sp4 and the other one is configured as the sql client.

When I run the eroom installation on the client, I enter the information for the username I created on the sql server and when I get to the final step I get an error.

Please note that both “Network COM+” and “Network DTC Access” are installed and enabled.

The error I am getting is:


11/23/2007 09:59:38 ERCreateSiteWizard[664:ad0]: Storage,0: ERROR: PersistODBC on DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=SQL;Trusted_Connection=no;UID=eroom;;DATABASE=eRoom_eRoomSite
11/23/2007 09:59:38 ERCreateSiteWizard[664:ad0]: ODBC,0: (25S12) [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Distributed transaction error [-2147168220]
11/23/2007 09:59:38 ERCreateSiteWizard[664:ad0]: Storage,0: unexpected exception caught in CERPersist::StartTransaction(). Couldn't start transaction.

Not sure what other information you guys will need but I will be watching this thread closely so if any more info is required I will post asap.

The account you are using for COM+, is it a member of the Network Configuration Operators?

Can you ping the server from the client with the name (not IP Address) and vice-versa? Has to be the name as DTC uses name resolution.

Since we have a domain, I made the account part of both local & domain network configuration operators.

As far as the ping goes, yes they can ping. They can ping both ways.

Is msdtc running on both machines?
