Hi Rick,
Sorry - let me clarify...
When I say remote, I mean a SQL server which is actually in a secondary data
center a few hundred feet from the rest of the farm.
I'm pretty sure it's not a connectivity issue to the datastore.
Thanks,
James

Hi James,
If you're getting timeouts creating the datastore, that doesn't bode well for
the long term reliabilty of your remote datastore connection.
I guess the best short term solution is to use MSDE installed locally
(preferably not on one of your farm servers) to create the farm. You've then
got the option of copying the database to somewhere else or even replicating
the datastore if connectivity/bandwidth to the remote SQL system is an ongoing
issue.
I wouldn't waste any more time trying to do anything with the remote SQL
server. Once your SQL connectivity is sorted out (MSDE?) things should work for
you.
regards,
Rick

Hi all,
I'm building a new farm and can't seem to get around this 26013 error.
My database is on a remote Win2K3 server running sql 2000 sp4.
My PS 4 server is Win2K3sp1. The error comes up during the PS 4 install. Get
thru the DSN config - tests OK. Then 26013 error comes up.
Have tried everything in article re: creating new database, confirming
settings, etc...still no go.
Is the only solution to create an access db, then convert at some later point?
Also, is anyone else experiencing some "bugs" during the PS4 install? Two
consistent issues keep coming up:
1) During DSN config, after I've selected the sql server to connect to, the
only options are "cancel" or "Help". "Next" and "Finish" are greyed out. I have
to go in and select it a second time to continue
2) After DSN config is complete, data store credentials are requested. When
credentials are entered, "please enter a valid windows user account" is
displayed. If I go "back", and go thru the DSN config again, then re-enter the
same credentials, it continues.
Thanks for any help,
James Uhrich

wow, an article finally. I've come across this several time. The only
way that I have been able to get around it and actually join my farm is
to have it create a local access db during the install. after reboot, do
a chfarm which will join but the IMA service will not start. I grab a
copy of the mf20.dsn from a working server, change the server name in
the dsn to the non working server name and place it on the server who's
IMA service will not start. then the IMA starts and things are slick.
