SQL Server Forum / Other Technologies / Clustering / November 2005SQL 2000 Ent.Ed. installation failed on Windows 2003 Cluster
Does anyone have any idea of what might be the issue? I've tried everything but with no success. I'm getting the following error every time I'm installing SQL 2000 on Active/Passive Win2003 Cluster. This is first time install on a new 2 Windows 2003 Server. I'm getting the error in the middle of the installation. Error: "An error occurred while creating virtual server resources for clustering. The system cannot find the file specified." This is the error in the sqlclstr.log: [sqlclusterSetup.cpp:291] : 2 (0x2): The system cannot find the file specified. [sqlclusterSetup.cpp:310] : 2 (0x2): The system cannot find the file specified. [sqlclusterSetup.cpp:1348] : 2 (0x2): The system cannot find the file specified. Thanks Ayad Have you tried copying the media locally and install from there?

A similar issue is documented in Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) article "You receive an "Error occurred while creating virtual server resources" error message when you install Virtual SQL Server on a cluster computer" http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;811024 As per this KB, to work around this problem, follow these steps: Locate the path for Gathercl.dll, and then run the Regsvr32 command on the folder where the Gathercl.dll file exists. Typically, Gathercl.dll is located in the %systemroot%\Winnt\Cluster folder. 1. At a command prompt, unregister Gathercl.dll by typing the following command: Regsvr32 /u gathercl.dll 2. At the command prompt, register Gathercl.dll by typing the following command: Regsvr32 gathercl.dll After you register Gathercl.dll, start the Setup program again.

When I tried to register the dll from the active node, it doesn't work. It registered it but in the registry the name of the dll is blank. But when I registered it from the passive node, it did work and the installation completed with no issue.
