PRB: MTS Client Install EXE Not Created w/ Specific MTS Config

ID: Q197816

The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Transaction Server version 2.0

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.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
