The installation is not proceeding in the PUB or in the SUB?
Make sure you have run Upgrade Assistant and
LMHOSTS|HOSTS files are configured correctly.
Windows path environment path is not correct. So the isntaller is unable to save the dc
database.
It could be incorrect DNS entree that maybe preventing it from properly installing it.
It could be that you running into
CSCee81635 bug below are the details.
If the problem is after installing CallManager, DCDirectory service fails to start giving a logon failure error message.
Conditions:
If windows administrator password has any of the following 4 characters, this
problem will surface.
\ " % ^
Workaround:
Change the windows administrator password to remove the one or more special
characters mentioned above from the windows administrator password and reinstall CallManager.
