PRB: SQL Server 7.0 Setup Fails on MSCS with Cannot Grant Logon as a Service Right (270839)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SQL Server, Enterprise Edition 7.0
This article was previously published under Q270839 SYMPTOMS
When you install SQL Server 7.0 Enterprise Edition on a Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS), an error message similar to following occurs (the hex numbers may vary from one computer to the next):
Setup cannot grant log on as a service right to the specified account:
2117340 (0xc0000022)
CAUSE
The preceding error message occurs when you install SQL Server 7.0 Enterprise Edition on a Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS) if you are logged on to the computer with an account that does not have enough permissions on both nodes.
WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior:
- Create a Microsoft Windows NT domain service account for SQL Server. If you already have a Microsoft Windows NT domain service account, verify that it has the following advanced user rights:
- Act as part of the operating system.
- Logon as a service.
- Logon locally.
- Make sure that this account is a member of the local Administrators group on both nodes.
- Logon to both nodes in the cluster by using the SQL Server Service account from step 1.
- Install Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 Enterprise Edition from the CD.
