SYMPTOMS

You may receive the error message

during Microsoft Commerce Server setup, or when you run the Store Foundation or the Starter Store Copy wizards.

CAUSE

The error occurs when you log the WWW Service to a SQL or an ODBC database, and select a user name that has a password. If the user name does not have a password, the error does not occur.

WORKAROUND

    -or-
  • Create a login ID and user name in SQL Server that has no password. For security reasons, this user should have only INSERT permissions for the table to which you are logging.
