Here’s a new Knowledge Base article we published this morning that talks about an issue you might run into when trying to install System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008. This one deals with an accounts/permissions issue and fortunately it’s an easy one to resolve:

=====

Symptoms

Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2 (SCVMM 2008 R2) setup may fail with the following error message during the Virtual Machine Manager Server portion of setup:

Unable to connect to the VMM database because of a general database failure. Ensure that the SQL Server is running and configured correctly, then try the operation again.
ID: 2605. Details: SQL error code: 15247

%ProgramData%\VMMLogs\ServerSetup.txt will have entries similar to the following:

[6/3/2011 4:00:18 PM] Data : bcpPath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\bcp.exe"

Error = 15247
Index #0
Source: .Net SqlClient Data Provider
Number: 15247
State: 1
Class: 16
Server: servername\instance
Message: User does not have permission to perform this action.
Procedure: sp_helplogins
Line: 72

Cause

This may occur if the following conditions both apply:

  • Setup is being run as an account that does not have sysadmin rights on the SQL Server.
  • A service account is specified for the SQL instance that does have sysadmin rights on the SQL Server.

The SQL commands will initially be executed in the context of the user account running setup, not the service account. After installation, the service account will be used for normal operations.

Resolution

To allow setup to complete successfully in this scenario, hold down the SHIFT key and right-click on setup.exe on the Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2 installation media. Choose Run as different user and then enter the credentials for the service account with sysadmin rights on the VMM server.

Notes:

  • Alternatively, you can log off the server and log back on as the service account user.
  • Before running setup, you will need to uninstall SCVMM from Control Panel\Programs and Features first before re-running setup.
