Windows Server Forum / Small Business Server / SBS 2000 / October 2007Install error for SP1a
I've recently taken over an existing installation and am getting all the patches and updates applied. It's a SBS2000. 2000 SP4 has been applied but SBS2000 SP1 has not. I'm trying to install SP1a but I get the error message that I need 125 meg of available space on the partition that has clientapps5 and the process aborts. I've got 400 gig of space available so what am I doing wrong?  SignatureSprocket in Texas >I've recently taken over an existing installation and am getting all the >patches and updates applied.

Where you think the ClientApps5 folder is, and where SBS thinks the folder is, may differ. Do you have _any_ partitions with less than 125Mb space free? SBS2003 has a registry key that details the location of the ClientApps share - my suspicion would be that SBS2000 does too (but I can't be sure, not having a working SBS2000 handy these days). SignatureSteve Foster [SBS MVP] --------------------------------------- MVPs do not work for Microsoft. Please reply only to the newsgroups. I know what you mean. Turns out, I've forgotten too much about SBS2000. I've even built up a SBS2000 server to see what the default install looks like because so much on this server is not default. There is only 1 partition, 500 gig. I know but that's what it is. The clientapps5 directory was not in the default path. When I got this error, I created the default path and shared it out and rebooted but that didn't help. I remember that some older OS had trouble when a large hard drive was presented to them but I think that was fixed by 2000 SP4.

I've forgotten more about SBS 2000 than I ever knew. ;-) SignatureMerv Porter [SBS-MVP] ============================ I bow to the google king!!! -- Cris Hanna [SBS-MVP] ------------------------------------------------- Microsoft MVPs Independent Experts (MVPs do not work for MS) Real World Answers --------------------------------------------------------- Please do not contact me directly regarding issues "Merv Porter [SBS-MVP]" <mwport@no_spam_hotmail.com> wrote in message news:ufMvnFxFIHA.3672@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl...

Please reply only to the newsgroups. >> You are the king. I even looked for that but couldn't find it. I did recreate the proper share in the proper location so y'all won't think I'm a doofus. However, I did not edit the registry. I'll try that tonight while the customer is sleeping. thanks again.
