Problem installing VMware VirtualCenter

[javrob]

When I am trying to install VC I get the following error:

error 25036 VMware Virtual Center can be installed

Can you provide more detail?

What version of Virtual Center are you trying to install?

Is it a clean install, re-install, or upgrade?

What media are you using? Did you verify that the media has no errors?

What about the host OS and the database you are using?

Any additional info should help you get some responses.

[javrob]

The version is Virtual Center 2.5.

It is a clean installation.

The media is fine. It had already been used.

The OS is Windows 2003 and the DB is SQL 2005 express. (trial)

Thank you for your help!

Have you verified ODBC connectivity from the server you are installing VC on? What is your DSN name?

[javrob]

I only started to install it. I don't have DSN name. I was installing evaluation version.
