SYMPTOMS
If you install the Windows XP Embedded development system on a non-English version of the operating system, the Database Setup stage of the installation stops responding when it tries to create the Repositories file share. If this symptom occurs, you receive the following error messages and Database Setup is rolled back:

netshare

An internal error occurred while creating the network share, LookupAccountName failed

-and-

VBScript

An ERROR occurred while creating repository share, return code #2



CAUSE
When Database Setup creates the Repositories file share, it tries to set Full Control permissions for the Everyone built-in group. However, on non-English operating systems, this built-in group is not named &quot;Everyone&quot; and the share operation is not completed.



WORKAROUND
To work around this issue:
 * 1) Temporarily create a local group named &quot;Everyone.&quot;
 * 2) After Database Setup is complete, change the permissions for the Repositories share to set Full Control permissions on the built-in group for all users (for example, &quot;Jeder&quot; on German language systems).
 * 3) Remove share permissions from the Everyone group.
 * 4) Delete the Everyone local group that you created in step 1.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Windows XP Embedded Database Setup.



MORE INFORMATION
During a typical installation, Database Setup creates the Repositories file share at the end of the Database Setup stage of the installation, after the SQL database has been set up.
