Windows Server 2008 r2 install error gpt partition style

Good morning I am trying to install Window Server 2008 r2 (trail) on my Dell inspiron 15 and also keep Windows 8 when I set up a partition of 50G and go thru the install it tells me The selected Disk is of the GPT partition style. How do I fix this
issue.
Thanks
Mike

Hi,
Since we are still discussing the same problem, so I merged them.
I want to confirm some information. Is your computer boot in BIOS mode or UEFI mode? Open computer management->Disk management->Properties->Volumes.
Is your current partition type GPT or MBR?
For now,
starting with Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1, all versions of Windows Server can use GPT partitioned disks for data. Booting is only supported for 64-bit editions
on Itanium-based systems. For windows 7, windows VISTA and window server 2008, Booting is only supported for 64-bit editions on UEFI-based systems.
So, the solution is either to change the boot mode or convert your disk. Remind, if you want to convert your disk, data on it should be cleared.
Hope this helps.

Is this a clean install or an upgrade? 20 GB, though greater than the minimum, is pretty minimal. How much memory do you have on the system? 2008 would try to create a page file of 1.5x physical memory, so if you are building on a large
memory system, you could be having an issue there.

Hi Deb
With the code that's out today I don't think the compatibility mode works, from what I can read from users' experencies on LinkedIn discussions.
Customers have used Windows XP mode for Windows 7 (for example), this installs a Windows XP virtual machine in which you can install and run OWB 11gR2 on your Windows 7 (64-bit) workstation. Windows XP mode can be downloaded from:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx
You should also increase your XP mode virtual machine memory (RAM) allocation to at least 1GB for it to perform at an acceptable level. This will get you going until there is a better option.
Cheers
David

Hi
I am trying to activate the windows server 2008 standard but i am not able to do so.
I am getting the error.
The product key you have entered does not appear to be a valid windows server product key.
I have also call to microsoft activation team but they won't be able to resolve the issue, they found that the product key is valid. Then why it is not getting activated.
Can someone help on this ? any reply really appreciated.

Hi,
Based on your description, we need to make sure that the product key information has been typed correctly and the product key matches to the edition installed.
Besides, regarding error code 0xC004C003, the following article can be worth taking a look.

Server 2008 Pinter install error OPERATION COULD NOT BE COMPLETED (error 0x900f0214)

I downloaded the HP Universal printer driver for a LaserJet 4250dn network printer to our server running SERVER 2008 SP2.
I dowloaded the zipped executable files for both the PCL5 and PCL6 drivers to the desktop and ran the EXE to unzip the files. When I tried to run the INSTALL.EXE file (as an ADMINISTRATOR) for BOTH drivers, the following occurs:
Answer YES to EULA
Select TRADITIONAL MODE (or DYNAMIC MODE - it doesn't matter - neither one works)
Click INSTALL
Immediately I get the error OPERATION COULD NOT BE COMPLETED (error 0x900f0214)
Click OK
Click FINISH
This happens with both the PCL5 & PCL6 driver installations.
I activated FILE SHARING, PRINTER SHARING, and NETWORK DISCOVERY but did not solve the problem.
I was logged in as the Domain Administrator and the Local Admin also.
Any suggestions?

How to get past Crystal Reports Server 2008 Linux install error

Hi,
     During the install of Crystal Reports Server 2008 on Red Hat Linux we select use an existing DB (Oracle) and it prompts for:
Crystal Reports Server 2008 Setup
Enter the information for your new CMS
Oracle TNSNAME :
[SANDBOX                     ] *
User ID :
[crystal_rpt                 ] *
Password :
which then gives me:
Crystal Reports Server 2008 Setup
ERROR
Failure to validate the database credential has a potential to crash the database at a later stage. Enter the correct information.
It doesn't let me get past this and just send me back to the previous screen. I've check and re-checked and the information TNSNAME, User ID, and Password are all correct. Now I can exit out the install and sqlplus to the database just fine with all that same information.
What does this error mean? And how do I get past it?
Thanks,

Perhaps it is held by the process. Find process, stop it and do what you want. If you still cannot what you need, make a script and run it in Task Schedule with elevated rights as SYSTEM. You may reregister newly named dll.
Perhaps more suitable forum for problem like this one is MSDN forum. If problem persists, addres this forum.

Installation of Client Access role fails on Windows Server 2008 R2 (Execution of: "$error.Clear(); Install-ExchangeCertificate -services "IIS, POP, IMAP")

Hello
I am trying to install Exchange Server 2010 beta 1 onto a Windows Server 2008 R2 (build 7000) machine which has also been set up as a domain controller.
However when attempting to install the Client Access role, setup fails with the error below.
Does anyone know of a way to get around this please?
I have already searched for this error and not found any similar threads.
Also every time I press the code button on this forum it crashes the browser and I keep losing the message! (IE8 from within Server R2). Also the message box is very small, will not expand and keeps jumping to the top.
Thanks

Hello
Thanks for all the replies.
I have since wiped the system and installed everything again and it all worked this time so not sure what was wrong last time. I did try to uninstall all Exchange components and then uninstall IIS and Application server, reboot and re-install but I received the same error still when it came to installing the client access role.
Walter: I just attempted the standard installation which should have used the default self-signed certificate. Everything was a fresh install done at the same time on a freshly formatted PC.
For info last time when it failed to work:
- Installed Windows Server 2008 R2
- Installed Domain Controller role using dcpromo. I set the forest and domain as Windows Server 2008 R2
- Added a forest trust between main domain and test Exchange domain (set up as ex2010.local)
- Installed IIS and Application Server role
- Installed Hyper-v role
- Installed Desktop Experience feature
- Installed Exchange and recieved the error
When it worked I set up the forest and domain in Windows Server 2008 mode (i.e. not R2), installed Exchange first and then set up the forest trust and then Hyper-v. It did say it failed to configure dns which was probably because it started trying to do automatic updates half way through the dcpromo! DNS seems to work ok though.
I did notice this time that Hyper-v gave a warning about the virtual network adapter not being set up correctly and the local network did not work correctly although I could access the internet. Not sure if this could have been related to the cause of the problem previously. For now I have disabled the virtual network until I get time to try and get it working and so the mail will work in the meantime.
I also noticed that Hyper-v added an extra 443 ssl binding to the default website so as it had 2 bindings on port 443 it refused to start. After deleting one it worked.
I decided to install Exchange onto a domain controller as it is only a test and I wouldn't do it in a live environment. I am also short of test machines! It didn't give me any warnings about this actually, I think previous versions warn you that it is not recommended.
Andreas and Chinthaka: I did not know about the requirement to run the domain at 2003 mode. The main domain is running in 2008 mode with Exchange 2007 so I assume this is just a temporary beta related requirement. It does seem to be working (second attempt) so far in a 2008 mode domain although I haven't had a chance to fully test it yet.
Thanks
Robin
P.S. Sorry it's taken me a while to reply!

Windows server 2008 sp2 andoracle database 10g r2

We have created a server with windows server 2008 sp2, installing various roles, active directory, domain, dhcp server, dns server, some others, and various functionalities, and all works fine.
After all of this we are trying to install oracle database 10g, 'cause compatibiliy with an already existing db running at the moment under this database platform, using oracle universal installer, and when the launcer starts the procedure oracle database configuration assistant its windows come out and after just the 2% of the procedure it stops with ora-12560 error.
Before this not any kind of error appear.
the windows firewall security windows that appears, just 2, are unlocked by clicking the unlock button.
All seems configured right.
The listener service, oracleoradb10g_home1tnslistner, seems configured right, automatically configured from the setup procedure just before the oracle database configuration assistant, and is running.
This is the only one service created and running, at this point of the installation, from oracle.
the global database we are trying to create is named orcl, but in any place this name is found at the moment that the installation stops.
I hope that someone can help with this 'cause are 5 days that we are blocked with the installation and can't install the server in its environment.
We are desperates.

At this link
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10203vista.html
it says server and client for windows 2008 not just client.
Not only.
If I install this with no creation of the active directory and the domain, with all the rest, the installation work till the end without any error.
And anyway the error i reported in the first post happen the same, exactly the same point of the installation, with the 11g version too.
Waiting and hoping can be helped
Best regards.

[SOLVED] rdesktop and Windows Server 2008

Hello guys,
My jobs requires me to deal with Windows Servers sometime, I have been using rdesktop to remotely access to Windows machines (including Windows XP, Windows Server 2003) without any problems. However, lately when there's a Windows Server 2008 R2 installed and I need to do remote access to that server. rdesktop doesn't seem to work well with Windows 2k8, the first try always works flawlessly, then whether I logged off or just closed the remote window, then the second time onwards, I always get "internal licensing error" message.
But the problem is, if I use another linux PC (I have several linux OS running in virtual and physical machines, like Mint, Arch, Slackware, even PC-BSD) that I have never "rdesktop" to that Win2k8 before, then the first try always works and problem continues from the second try.
This problem doesn't seem to happen while I borrow a Windows machine and test many times. So I think there's something that "rdesktop" just doesn't like about Win2k8
Has anyone experienced this before and do you know a solution for this?
Thank you very much in advance
Last edited by Himari (2010-08-05 13:56:36)

Well, the only difference that I notice is that when accessing Win2k8 remotely, it pops up a message saying something about certificate and ask do you want to trust/process anyway, whilst with rdesktop, it never asks me that kind of question. So I presume after the first time successful login, it fails from the second time onwards.
However, is there a solution to overcome this problem?
Thanks
