Install hangs during the setting of the admin password!

Glenn

During the installation, after I have entered all the values, while the
program is trying to set the administrator password...it hangs for about 10
sec and then the install rolls back and stops. Error returned is 11708,
which I can't locate or define.

Thanks in Advance, Glenn

Check to make sure the ad\service account you are "logged in as" and are
using to install MSPS - which you are hopefully doing [the other option is to
use the SQL sa account for the install] that it Has access to the SQL Server
- Check the event log on the SQL server to see if the web server is making it
that far and "if it is but getting failure audits" then the solution is not
far away.
1) make sure that in SQL the AD\service or the SQL SA account
2) you may have to initially add a SQL Server AD Machine Account - yea
that's not too clear with out pictures so do this...
3) open the "security" section in SQL Ent MGR then under "USERS" right click
or add a new user and leave it with NT auth, but put a $ sign after it like
this: AD\webserver$ and for troubleshooting make sure it has at least the
"Create Database" SQL role then try the install again - it should work.
4) If your Views & Session is offloaded then that's another route for
troubleshooting and should start from there first.

Good luck
