I've installed the server over 20 times on servers setup exeactly the same and this one just never seems to complete. The console just shows it with an hour class. the security is setup correctly as well. Alson the server does have th agent on it as well so something did occur. What logs wilol show me whre the problem is? How do I get the process moving again? Can I just remove it from the console and just relaunch the secondary install again? I ahve attached the bootstrap log I found below ****************************** $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Starting SMS_BOOTSTRAP. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager v4.00 (Build 6487) $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Copyright (C) 2005 Microsoft Corp. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Set current directory to D:\. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Successfully read D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.ini. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Started for the first time. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Current time: Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011 $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Looking for the .PKG file... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Found D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.pkg. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Elapsed time since startup: 0 days, 00 hours, 00 minutes, 00 seconds. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Processing the .PKG file... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> Validating D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.pkg... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:05 2011><thread=1A30> D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.pkg passed validation check. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:11 2011><thread=1A30> There is enough disk space: 516MB required, 514449MB available. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:11 2011><thread=1A30> Temp directory is D:\07o1g1le.TMP. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:12 2011><thread=1A30> Decompressing D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.pkg... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:31:12 2011><thread=1A30> Decompression successful. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:26 2011><thread=1A30> Elapsed time since startup: 0 days, 00 hours, 02 minutes, 21 seconds. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:26 2011><thread=1A30> Running SMS Setup... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:26 2011><thread=1A30> Successfully parsed D:\07o1g1le.TMP\SMSSETUP\install.map. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:27 2011><thread=1A30> D:\07o1g1le.TMP\SMSSETUP\install.map build number "6487" is correct. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:27 2011><thread=1A30> Started "D:\07o1g1le.TMP\SMSSETUP\bin\i386\setup.exe /script D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.ini /nouserinput" as PID 2276. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:27 2011><thread=1A30> Waiting for PID 2276 to terminate... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:27 2011><thread=1A30> PID 2276 exited with code 1. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> FATAL ERROR: SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER is not running, setup must have failed, bootstrap procedure aborted! $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Deinstalling myself... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Deleted temp directory D:\07o1g1le.TMP. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Deleted D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.pkg. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Deleted D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.ini. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Deleted D:\SMS_BOOTSTRAP.EXE. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Deinstalled the SMS_BOOTSTRAP service. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Deinstallation complete. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Bootstrap procedure unsuccessful. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> Stopping SMS_BOOTSTRAP... $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> SMS_BOOTSTRAP stopped. $$<SMS_BOOTSTRAP><Wed Nov 16 06:33:37 2011><thread=1A30> ******************************************************************************** jeff parker
