Ive had a look through others post and cant seem to find a answer to this problem.
After installation of SBS version and the ADNM with MSDE console, the login window doesn’t detect any servers. I have followed the installation manual which tells me to run the setup again but leaving the “management server” unchecked.
I’m not talking about the detect feature now, I’m talking about the log on.
The detect button only fills in the drop down list. You don’t have to use it - you can type in the name of the server manually (together with username/password) and that’s what I’m asking you to do…
Is the “avast Management Server” service running? (Administrative Tools → Services). If not, can you start it? If no, what error message + are there any “red” entries in the Antivirus category of the Windows event log?
No the service wasnt started, when I attempt to start it, the message returned is “Could not start service on local computer. Error 2 the system cannot find the file specified”
That is during uninstall, right? You don’t have to worry about that (MSDE sometimes fails to delete the DB but the new install shouldn’t have a problem with that).
BTW instead of making uninstall/reinstall, you could simply do a “repair” of the installation (Control Panel → Add/Remove Programs → Avast Management Tools → Change/Remove → Repair).
