The MOF Compiler could not connect with the WMI server

I am trying to add node2 to SQL cluster (2008) However, I kept running into errors with the following error message:
"The MOF Compiler could not connect with the WMI Server. This is either because of a semantic error such as an incompatibility with the existing WMI repository or an actual error such as the failure of the WMI Server to start".
I checked on the WMI services, they are started and running.renamed the WMI repository. but nothing worked .
Any idea what settings I need to change in order to ensure a successful instalation and add node 2 to sql cluster.

Hi,
Did SQL Server failed during installation and you somehow brought services online. Or it failed and next time you executed it succeeded IMO this error pops up because of remnants of failed installation on Node 1. With cluster specially if Installation on
node 1 fails you should uninstall completely and remove all files related to SQL Server and then proceed.
Have a look at below connect,see workaround and information posted by MS

If above still not helps please post complete setup log file

MS SQL Server 2008 not getting installed properly - MOF compiler could not connect with the WMI server

I am trying to install SQL Server 2008 in my local machine. However, I kept running into errors with the following error message:
"The MOF Compiler could not connect with the WMI Server. This is either because of a semantic error such as an incompatibility with the existing WMI repository or an actual error such
as the failure of the WMI Server to start".
I also ran "rundll32 wbemupgd, UpgradeRepository" to rebuild WMI repository, it doesn't help either. I got the same error message.
Any ideas what settings I need to change in order to ensure a successful installation of SQL Server 2008?

can you check below two links.Make sure previous failed installation is removed completely.

Solution given by Connect MS is:
Possibly the issue was caused by uninstalling from add-remove programs - at any rate, using aaron bertrand's suggestion below fixed the issue. Also of note - I used the local admin for the install.
http://sqlblog.com/blogs/aaron_bertrand/archive/2009/02/20/the-xp-sp3-msxml6-sp2-sql-server-debacle.aspx
yes - remove msxml6 and any other half installed portion of sql 2008 and REBOOT and install sql

I have a new Ipad air. I have synced it to my PC before. This time I get an error message saying iTunes could not connect to the iPad because the device time out - what do I do?

I have a new Ipad air. I have synced it to my PC before. This time I get an error message saying iTunes could not connect to the iPad because the device time out - what do I do?

Quit iTunes, restart your computer, reset the iPad and try again.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Event 31901 – The registry probe could not connect to the registry of the computer name

Hi, I have been doing a weekly SQL query to try and find any high number of events I get in my SCOM environment.
One of the events I have stumbled across is 31901 (“The registry probe could not connect to the registry of the computer <name>”) which comes from the “Collect Registry Probe Module Events”
I have read a couple of previous suggestions on the forum and upon checking I found two different scenarios. For a couple of servers I checked the health and it looked like they had RPC issues. A restart got rid of these problems.
However the ones left seem to have something in common. They relate to hosts referring to SQL “instances/clusters”. So the “logging computer” is the host and the probe cannot to the registry of the “virtual computer”. In other words the computers that can’t
be connected to are all agentless and show as managed by the logging computer under “Agentless Managed”
If I log onto the host with my SCOM action account and run something like “reg query” against the virtual “instance” I get “ERROR: The network path was not found”. I can ping the instance fine though. I don’t really understand how these instances work but
I presume they don’t have services or a registry as such. Therefore is this normal or is there any way I can get rid of the events? I don’t really want to get rid of the rule itself as it did help me find a couple of RPC issues. I could override for that host
if this is “normal” and how it should work.

Hierarchies Job Failing The job process could not communicate with the dat

Hi Experts,
We have a group of hierarchies that run as a separate job on the DS schedules. The problem is this when we schedule the job to run during the production loads it fails but when we run immediately after it fails it runs completely fine. So it basically means that if i run it manually it runs but when its scheduled to run with the production job it fails. Now the interesting thing is If i schedule the job to run anytime after or before the production jobs are done. It works fine.
The error i get is
The job process could not communicate with the data flow <XXXXXX> process. For details, see previously logged
                                                           error <50406>.
Now this XXXXX DF has only Horizontal Flatenning and it does not run as separate process because if i have it has separate process it fails with an EOF . So i removed the run as separate process and changes the DF to use in memory .
Any Suggestion on this problem...

Thanks Mike.. I was hoping its a memory issue but the thing i don't understand is when the job is scheduled to run with the production job it fails. when i manually run the job during the production job it runs, this kinda baffles me.

Error message: itunes could not connect to the itunes store

Hi All,
I'm a rookie to the whol Apple ipod nano, etc, etc. I bought the generation 3 nano yesterday. I successfully downloaded a CD to the nano, but when i tried to download a tv show and open itunes i get the follow error message:
"itunes could not connect to the itunes store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
The funny thing is, is that i'm not even on a network. I'm just doing this from home and not connected to a network. internet connection works, I ran the diagnostic and nothing weird came up? Any suggestion for a newbee.

Hi, I am having the same problem and I get the message: "iTUNES could not connect to the iTUNES store. Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I just downloaded 2 songs no problem, after uploading the latest version on iTUNES online. I closed the program and tried again, same message. My cable internet connection works just fine, so I am assuming the problem is on their end. I will check in with you guys to see if someone figured it out.
Thanks

Itunes could not connect to the iPhone "" because of an unknown error occur

New to iTunes and iPhone (3g 8gig black)...
Apple store was unable to activate the phone in the store...
I installed iTunes today 7.7.0.43 and plugged in phone and got the message:
itunes could not connect to the iPhone "" because of an unknown error occurred (0xE8000035).
Vista thinks I have a "Digital Still Camera" when i plug it in but the driver for the "Digital Still Camera" fails to install...
I rebooted the computer.
I restarted the iphone (Pushed top button then slide to power off and then pushed again to power on)
I reset the iphone (top and home button for 10-15 seconds till i saw apple logo)
any ideas?
ps - i tried calling 1-800-my-iphone but i was unable to get to a person - is their tech support always that crappy or just today since its launch day?

This may not make you feel any better, but it's not you, it's not your new phone, and it's not the way Apple normally works. It is extreme overload for today. I have one of the original iPhones, and today I tried to simply get the new software, and after all the download and firmware updating, I got the same message you did. It had persisted all day, and, I'm sorry to say, is likely to for the rest of the day. I'm on a Mac, so it's not a Vista thing, either. Other people I know who bought the new phone are also experiencing the same thing. Spread the word! Discourage anyone from upgrading today! Or they, too, will be WITHOUT A PHONE!!
Good luck to us all,
Shelley

I downloaded iTunes. I was going to put an MP3 lecture on iTunes so I could put it on our new iPad but I got the message:
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unknown error occurred (-3212). Make sure your network connection is active and try again." I was able to get on this site so I know the connection is fine. Any ideas how to fix this?
Thanks.

"ADE could not connect to the obtention server. Make sure you are connected to internet" error message.

I am trying to download a new ebook that I bought on ebook.de (already did it before and never had problem) and this error message appears "ADE could not connect to the obtention server. Make sure you are connected to internet". I am connected to internet and my connection is quite good... I have no idea how to fix this problem. Can someone help me?

Hello,
Quickly you can do a check.
Open your browser
Type URL: https://adeactivate.adobe.com/adept/Status
Press enter
You should see something like:
If it says "UP", this indicates ADE will be able to contact activation server.
If not, then, maybe firewall is causing you this issue.
Thanks

Itunes could not connect to the ipad because an invalid response was received from the device

Hello
I just installed the maximus v extreme motherboard with a ocz vertex 4 ssd with windows 7 x64. Installation was fine and installing drivers went without a hitch. Re-installing the software i use went fine as well.
However, when i went to use iTunes( v10.7) to sync my ipad i got an error message saying:
"Itunes could not connect to the ipad because an invalid response was received from the device"
I then connected my ipod nano to see if it will cause the same error, but it worked fine. So i tried an iphone and the same error I got for my ipad came up.
I tried reinstalling the usb drivers, but the same error came up. I also updated BIOS to the latest version, but the error still came up. I also reinstalled itunes numerous times and still got the error. I reinstalled and updated all drivers as well. Again this did not fix the issue. I also tried to run itunes in vista compatability and xp compatability mode. Again this did not fix the issue.
I have also followed all the steps apple recommends to do on their website with regards to this issue, again it did not fix the issue.
It is a real pain as everything else works like a dream! Is there anything i can do to get itunes to work properly on my pc?
Thank you for your help!

I fixed this problem. Believe the problem is iOS 7 incompatibility with older iTunes Versions on older MacOS systems or platforms.
My iPad 2 would no longer sync with my old PowerPC Mac mini running MacOS. My iPhone 3GS synced fine. IPad2 updated to iOS 7 which doesn't run on my iPhone 3GS. Error message for iPad sync problem was "invalid response received from iPad" out of iTunes. I then applied update iOS 7.1.2 to iPad and error message changed to indicate this version of iTunes not supported, use 11.1.
iPad 2 used to sync prior to iOS 7 installation.
Research on Apple web site shows iOS 7 on iPhones and iPads does not support older MacOS and iTunes versions.
Upgraded with new Mac mini and iTunes 11.1 and MacOS 10.9.2. (put this off as long as I could. )
all good now.
