SYMPTOMS
When you install the Remoteboot Service from the Windows NT Server version 3.5 CD, the following error message appears:

Noncritical Error

An error has occurred.

Unable to open the file x:\i386\rplsvc.mdb

A non-critical error has occurred. You may try the operation, ignore it, or exit the entire Setup operation.

This error occurs 58% through the installation process.



CAUSE
There are three prompts during the installation procedure for the administrator to enter paths for Remoteboot files. The third prompt requests the path for the Remoteboot Client files; the default path is incorrect. Accepting the default path results in the error referenced above.

To avoid the error message noted above, change the path to :\CLIENTS\RPL (where is the drive with the Remoteboot installation files).

where is CD-ROM drive.
