I am running a sql server 2000 cluster on a windows server 2003
machine. Every time I try to install MSDTC it fails and this is what
is in the Event Viewer:



MS DTC setup failed to populate the shared cluster registry. The DTC
resource will not be able to come online.Error Specifics:
d:\nt\com\complus\dtc\shared\mtxclu\mtxclusetuphel per.cpp:120,
CmdLine: "C:\WINDOWS\cluster\resrcmon.exe" -e 880 -m 884 -p 1204, Pid:
2524

For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.


The Event ID is 4389. The Source is MS DTC Client.

I've clicked on the link and Microsoft "does not have any more
information at this time."

Can anyone tell me what the problem is?


Thanks
JF

Sorry, but you need to install DTC (to W2K3) and MSDTC before installing SQL2K
on a W2K3 Cluster.
Try articles 817064 and 301600.

Gone are the nice days of running comclust.exe (as in W2K) !
