PRB: MTS Client Installation EXE Is Not Created with Specific MTS Configuration

• Microsoft Transaction Server 2.0
• Microsoft COM libraries, version 1.0

SYMPTOMS

The MTS client installation .exe is not created during a package export if the System package is configured in the following way:

• The MTS System package's Administrator role does not contain the System package's identity account.
  
  -and-



• Authorization Checking is turned on for the System package.

CAUSE

If Authorization Checking is turned on for the System package a check is made on the system package's Administrator role for the identity of the system package.

RESOLUTION

To have a client installation .exe generated during a package export, do the following:

1. Add the Windows NT account used for the System package's identity to the System package's Administrator role. You can also add a Windows NT group containing the System package's identity account to the Administrator role.



2. Turn off Authorization checking for the System.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
