SQL Server 2005 setup fails if network name of the NIC includes a comma

  • Artikel

Is your SQL Server 2005 installation blowing out while trying to install a clustered instance? And are you seeing the following output in setup's log file?

**********************************************

If that's the case, let me inform you that this is a known bug in the current version of the product which has already been fixed in SQL Server 2008. For SQL Server 2005, for the moment, you'll have to drop any existing commas from your NICs names, before attempting the installation.

Bye!
