Description: Product: Microsoft Host Integration Server 2000 End-User Client -- Installation operation failed.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the Host Integration Server 2000 Setup program detects if the %Systemroot%\System32 folder contains the National Language Support (NLS) files that the Setup program requires. By default, Windows XP does not install the NLS files. Therefore, the Host Integration Server 2000 Setup program will try to install the NLS files.

This problem occurs when the Windows File Protection feature in Windows XP Professional SP2 detects that Host Integration Server 2000 is trying to install the NLS files. If the Windows File Protection feature cannot find the NLS files, you receive the error messages that are mentioned in the &quot;Symptoms&quot; section.



RESOLUTION
A supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in this article. Only apply it to systems that are experiencing this specific problem. This hotfix may receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, we recommend that you wait for the next Host Integration Server 2000 service pack that contains this hotfix.

To resolve this problem immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the hotfix. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services telephone numbers and information about support costs, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.  Insert the Windows XP Professional SP2 CD, and then click Retry when you receive the Windows File Protection error message. Update the following registry key to contain a path that contains the Windows XP Service Pack 2 image:

 Update the following registry key to contain a path that contains the Windows XP Service Pack 2 image:

  Manually install the required NLS files by using a batch file. For example, you may use the following batch file.

Note Before you use this batch file code example, you must replace the first path with the actual path of the location of the Windows XP SP2 CD. expand D:\i386\C_1047.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1047.nls expand D:\i386\C_1140.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1140.nls expand D:\i386\C_1141.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1141.nls expand D:\i386\C_1142.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1142.nls expand D:\i386\C_1143.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1143.nls expand D:\i386\C_1144.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1144.nls expand D:\i386\C_1145.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1145.nls expand D:\i386\C_1146.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1146.nls expand D:\i386\C_1147.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1147.nls expand D:\i386\C_1148.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1148.nls expand D:\i386\C_1149.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_1149.nls expand D:\i386\C_20273.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20273.nls expand D:\i386\C_20277.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20277.nls expand D:\i386\C_20278.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20278.nls expand D:\i386\C_20280.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20280.nls expand D:\i386\C_20284.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20284.nls expand D:\i386\C_20285.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20285.nls expand D:\i386\C_20297.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20297.nls expand D:\i386\C_20420.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20420.nls expand D:\i386\C_20423.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20423.nls expand D:\i386\C_20424.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20424.nls expand D:\i386\C_20838.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20838.nls expand D:\i386\C_20871.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20871.nls expand D:\i386\C_20880.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20880.nls expand D:\i386\C_20924.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_20924.nls expand D:\i386\C_21025.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_21025.nls expand D:\i386\C_858.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_858.nls expand D:\i386\C_870.nl_ c:\windows\system32\c_870.nls  Install the NLS files when you install Windows XP by using Regional and Language Options in Control Panel.

<div class="status_section">

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.

<div class="moreinformation_section">

MORE INFORMATION
The updated Hiclient.msi package is a modified version of the Host Integration Server 2000 End User Client with SP2 package that is included with Host Integration Server 2000 Service Pack 2 (SP2).

The updated Hiclient.msi package does not look for the existence of the NLS files that are listed in the &quot;Workaround&quot; section. Therefore, the NLS files are not installed by the Host Integration Server 2000 End User Client Setup program. If you need one or more of these NLS in the future, you must manually install these files by using Regional and Language Options in Control Panel. You do not have to install more NLS files unless you must have languages that are different from English (U.S.) on the computer that is running the Host Integration Server 2000 End User Client.
