SYMPTOMS
When you are installing Systems Management Server (SMS) 2.0 in an installation folder that has spaces in its name (for example, C:\Program Files), SMS is not installed correctly. However, the SMS Setup Wizard indicates that the installation is complete. If you try to start the SMS Administrator console, the following error message is displayed:

Cannot find Mfc42u.dll in the existing path.

The only SMS service that runs is the SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER service.

If you reboot the site server, the server does not complete the reboot cycle, and stops with the following error message displayed:

STOP: C000021a {Fatal System Error} The Windows Logon Process Failed to start normally.



WORKAROUND
Install SMS in the default folder, or select a folder that does not contain spaces in its name.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0.
