Did you ever solve this?

Did anyone resolve this problem?  I get this error message on my Windows 2000 server box.

 

Thanks

be sure to apply read/write permissions throughout the location on where you are installing this from and to path of where the install is taking place.  Be sure to make those permissions flow down through the folder hiearchy

Also - I don't have a DCSUPT32.DLL file anywhere on my system, or in the installation location. This is version 5.1

I am having this exact problem. System is a Dell PowerEdge 1950 running Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1.

Permissions are fine, by default SYSTEM has Full Control to C:\Program Files and all new subdirectories (permission inheritance) and I'm performing the install as a member of the local Administrators group.

I get the following error in the Event Log:

Source: Application Error
Faulting application dcecfg32.exe, version 5.6.0.4769, faulting module kernel32.dll, version 5.2.3790.2756, fault address 0x00015e02.

Source: MsiInstaller
Product: Dell OpenManage Server Administrator -- SYSTEMSMANAGEMENT: The install failed to update configuration files. Please make sure that you have read/write/modify permissions in the directory where you are installing.
dcecfg.exe error code = -1066598273

So almost at the very end of the install, dcecfg32.exe is crashing, and the entire installation is rolled back. There's almost no software on here (just a bare Windows Server 2003 installation with all updates as of today, 11/2/2006).

What gives?

Thanks, but that doesn't help at all.

I set the permissions for local Administrator and SYSTEM for Full Control in my installation source folder in root directory of C:\ (so there are no intermediary directories to consider) and the process still crashes.

I don't know what my problem was, but I apparently did have a version of dcsupt32.dll in C:\Windows\System32. I can't figure out why I couldn't find it before, but this was causing all my woes.

Thanks for the tip, CactusFrance.
