I have been handed the task of installing OCS 2007 Standard Edition. Someone else had it installed but ran into trouble and uninstalled it. Unfortunately, I don't know all the details of the first install. Here's what I do know:
Our root domain and the child domain in which the server resides both have prep states of "Ready". When I launch setup.exe, the preparation step says it's complete. I click on Run in step 2 and it goes all the way through the very end where it attempts to activate the server and it fails with this error:
Failure
[0xC3EC79F4] The server is pointing to a deleted pool. Please reactivate.
I've scoured the Internet and can't find a single reference to this particular error. I'm hoping to get some feedback on here but I may just have to cash in one of my TechNet support calls.
Thanks for any input.
