Hello!

Today I tried installing the new SP2 for Microsoft ISA Server 2004 Enterprise Edition.

I've setup a back-to-back configuration. My Configuration Storage Server is located in the domain, and so is the second ISA Server. Both systems were succesfully updated to SP2.

The first ISA Server is located in a workgroup environment and has a root certificate installed. I created a mirrored account on this machine and afterwards added this acount as a mirrored account to the array the first ISA Server resides. When I open up the ISA Server Management I specify a domain account for the Configuration Storage Server and the mirrored account for array level administration. This all works fine.

Now, when I try to install SP2 on the first firewall it pops up an error telling me the following:

Setup failed while registering new events and alerts. Refer to the KB article of this update for support.


The setup logfile contains:

BMW is the name of the first ISA Server. The 0xc00403a6 is documented on MSDN:

quote:






E_FPC_NOT_CONNECTED_TO_ENTERPRISE
FPC_ERR(0x3A6)
0xC00403A6
The property or method <Name> is not supported when the ISA Server computer is not connected to a Configuration Storage server.


In the firewall logs I do see packets traveling from the first ISA Server to my Configuration Storage Server. Looking at the audits on the last machine it shows me the following:

quote:


Description:
Logon attempt by: MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_V1_0
Logon account: Administrator
Source Workstation: BMW
Error Code: 0x0


Ai, SP2 setup uses the wrong credentials for logging on to the Configuration Storage Server. As the setup itself doesn't give me the opportunity to specify this credentials I read through the setup log and found the following usefull information:

quote:


ISA setup CA INFO   : VerifyPropertyLength: Property STORAGESERVER_CONNECT_ACCOUNT length < 300
ISA setup CA INFO   : VerifyPropertyLength: Property STORAGESERVER_CONNECT_PWD length < 300


But when I use these properties with an domain user account able to connect to the CSS in the following manner:

quote:

isa2004sp2.msp STORAGESERVER_CONNECT_ACCOUNT=DOMAIN\Administrator STORAGESERVER_CONNECT_PWD=password


the setup still authenticates to the CSS with BMW\Administrator :( and thus the setup fails with the reported error above.

I hope someone can help me out.


Thanks!

Shouldn't this be the mirrored account?
STORAGESERVER_CONNECT_ACCOUNT=DOMAIN\Administrator

Also, can you clarify if the command you entered above was right? It looks like you specified the domain 'Administrator' account in the command, yet you say 'the setup still authenticates to the CSS with BMW\Administrator :( and thus the setup fails with the reported error above'

Hello, no it should not be the mirrored account. (At least, i think so) See "Assigning Roles" on this website: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/isa/2004/plan/workgroup_ee.mspx

What I mean with the last sentence of my post is that the first ISA Server still sends the credentials of the logged on user (BMW\Administrator) who runs the SP2 installation instead of the specified domain user DOMAIN\Administrator specified in the STORAGESERVER_CONNECT_ACCOUNT property to the Configuration Storage Server

Many thanks for your reply

Hi,

You should use the same administrator account as used during install of ISA.
Does your administrator account have a password? (both the one you used during install and the standard Administrator if it are not the same accounts)
