PRB: MSMQ: 0x80072035 Error Is Generated When You Add MSMQ 1.0 Clients to an MSMQ 2.0 Enterprise (282520)

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Message Queuing 2.0
Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) 1.0

This article was previously published under Q282520

SYMPTOMS

When you try to install a Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) 1.0 client that is running on any of the following platforms

Microsoft Windows NT
Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition (SE)
Microsoft Windows 98
Microsoft Windows 95

into an MSMQ 2.0 enterprise, you may receive the following error message during the installation of the 1.0 client:

Error: 0x80072035 - Unable To Create The Computer On The Information Server

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because none of the MSMQ servers in the Microsoft Windows 2000-based domain are global catalog-enabled domain controllers.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this behavior, at least one MSMQ server in the Windows 2000-based domain must be a global catalog-enabled domain controller. Enable Global Catalog on the MSMQ server against which the clients will be installing, and then retry the client installation.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

The following excerpt is from the Windows 2000 Help for Message Queuing:

   Each site that operates in mixed-mode must contain at least one Message
   Queuing server running on a domain controller that is configured as a
   Global Catalog Server. This is required to support MSMQ clients running
   Windows NT 4.0 in a Windows 2000 site.
