Cannot Launch OpenManage Essentials 1.2.1
Hi,
I'm running Windows 2008 R2 x64
It is a Domain Controller.
OpenManage Essentials was installed successfully. After running the application, the Welcome loading window never goes away. double clicking it I get this log from Silverlight:

HI Jason,
Is there any release date for 1.3 ?

I just got a similar error on a fresh install on 2012 Standard as a DC. We're waiting on a 1.3 release that should be imminent, and maybe that will resolve the problem.

Hey for you Domain Controller folks. Also check the Install whitepaper on www.delltechcenter.com/ome. There is a section on DC and some additional steps for creating a user/logon (if I recall correctly).
Let me know if that helps.

Rob,
Those additional steps didn't help. As far as I can tell, the Windows Groups (OmeAdministrators, OmePowerUsers, and OmeUsers) aren't being created. I created them manually, but OME still fails to launch.
And I tried this all on v1.3.

Hi Jason,
Thanks for the update.
Just to be sure SQL Server Service must be configured to run using a domain user account. You might see sometime that SQL Server Service will not start if you are using the default NETWORK SERVICE or LOCAL SYSYEM accounts.
So, before installing OME make sure you follow below steps:
1. Open "Active Directory Users and Computers" under Administrative Tools.
2. Create a user providing the password and once you confirm the password, click Finish and add it to Domain admin & RDP groups
3. Now, login to your SQL Management Studio under "Security>Logins" right click and select "New Login" and add that new user assigning it "sysadmin" privileges under server roles.
4. After this, login via new user using the same the credentials.
5. Goto Administrative Tools> Data Source(ODBC).
6. Provide the data source name and under "Which server do you want to connect to?" just give "." and click next and verify the connection is successful.
7. After the connection is successful, try installing OME again.
And after the installation is complete you must see OME Groups (OMEAdministrator, OmePowerUsers, and OMEUsers) getting created under "Active Directory Users and Computers>Users".
Hope this helps!
Thanks

No joy.
SQL Server is running and I can log into it with sysadmin rights as a number of different users. But I still see no OME Groups being created.

Spent a few hours with support today. They were able to replicate this issue with OME v1.3 in a lab, on Server 2012 running with the Domain Controller role.
No resolution yet, but at least it's not just me.
