Re: Install error for SP1a

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

You are the king. I even looked for that but couldn't find it. I did
recreate the proper share in the proper location so y'all won't think I'm a
doofus. However, I did not edit the registry. I'll try that tonight while
the customer is sleeping. thanks again.

I know what you mean. Turns out, I've forgotten too much about SBS2000.
I've even built up a SBS2000 server to see what the default install looks
like because so much on this server is not default. There is only 1
partition, 500 gig. I know but that's what it is. The clientapps5
directory
was not in the default path. When I got this error, I created the default
path and shared it out and rebooted but that didn't help. I remember that
some older OS had trouble when a large hard drive was presented to them
but I
think that was fixed by 2000 SP4.

Where you think the ClientApps5 folder is, and where SBS thinks the
folder
is, may differ.

Do you have _any_ partitions with less than 125Mb space free?

SBS2003 has a registry key that details the location of the ClientApps
share - my suspicion would be that SBS2000 does too (but I can't be sure,
not having a working SBS2000 handy these days).
