If you cancelled the setup program at some point previously, you might be running in this issue. If this is not it, you can parse through the logs listed in that error dialog and look for any errors that jump out.

Symptom: On initial Unity installation, when the Cisco Unity Setup program is cancelled and then subsequently run again, this may cause Cisco Unity to think it's an upgrade and therefore, the upgrade scripts are run on a non-existent UnityDb database. This results in a failure near the end of the Unity Setup program.

Tempu.log entry has the following:

2006-06-16T16:22:32 - Beginning to install configuration, new install = 0

new install = 0 is only expected on Unity upgrades. This indicates that Unity thinks it is in upgrade mode, not initial install mode.

OsqlDump_*.Log shows:

"Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'UnityDB'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly."

In upgrade mode Unity expects UnityDB to already be created, so this failure occurs.

Condition:

This problem may occur in any version of Unity. It should only occur when installing Unity initially, not on upgrades.

Workaround:

1) Run ConfigMgr.exe, which is located in the Commserver directory.

2) After the initial prompt, choose Advanced and check "Run database

configuration script". This runs C:\CommServer\Localize\DefaultConfiguration\ENU\DefaultDatabase.sql and will create the UnityDb with default settings.

NOTE: If this is run on a system with existing objects (subscribers, call handlers, etc), all non-default Unity objects will be wiped out.

I have gotten this error many times also on Unity 7.02. You need to make sure that the 2 sql services are running with a local account and not a domain account. If you are installing failover, after you install both servers you change it to a domain account.

You can run the unityuninstall and try again but there are some caveats, you will need to run cuspa again and reinstall at least one program. I can't remember everything but it is obvious.

Hope this help and please post.

I am running SQL services with the local system account and at this time its not part of the failover environment. This is actually a uninstall/reinstall of unity 7.0.2.

What are the steps you did to uninstall?

What OS and version of Exchange?

Randy

I used the uninstall unity utility, however we found what the problem was, while doing the uninstall, it aparently didn't remove the unitydb from it and contained some old entries in there, after we detached the unitydb and moved the .mdb files to another location, it went fine. Thanks for your help.

Glad to see that you got through it. Now I remember that sometimes the UnityDB does not get detached and the commserver dir does not get deleted.
