Product: Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002 -- Error 1722. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Action Launch_BTSsetupDB, location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Server\Setup\BTSsetupDB.exe, command: &quot;C:\Program Files\Microsoft BizTalk Server\Setup\&quot; &quot;&quot;

When this failure occurs, errors that are similar to the following may be generated in the BizTalk Server application log:

CAUSE
BizTalk Server is designed to work with a local BizTalk Server Administrators group. This local group is created by BizTalk Server Setup. A local BizTalk Server Administrators group cannot be created on a domain controller because domain controllers do not maintain local groups. Domain controllers maintain only domain groups.



RESOLUTION
Do not install BizTalk Server on a domain controller. Installation of Microsoft BizTalk Server on a domain controller is not a supported configuration.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.
