Question : SQL 2005 - SQL Server Services fail to install on Windows 2003 Cluster

Hi,

Environment - Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition x32 SP2 with SQL 2005

Problem - SQL Server Services fail to install

Background - This is a new installation, the cluster groups are setup (cluster group has MSDTSC, Quorum, IP and Name, APP1 & APP2 groups have disk resources only).  The install pre-checks are all green, all components install cleanly (from what I can see) but the SQL server part is failing.  Im using a domain administrator account for the install, I am logged on with mstsc /console (connected to 1 server only), my distribution media is on the local C:\kits\SQL2005\Servers & Tools directories.  I'm selecting a named instance.

The logs show:

All good....till the SQL Server part.

What's going on?  Any guidance really appreciated.

Answer : SQL 2005 - SQL Server Services fail to install on Windows 2003 Cluster

Solution - my "Public Team " interface on one node had a trailing space.  I removed this trailing space and I also moved the install directory to the root level.  Now working through the remaining installation successfully - thanks for your assistance.
