I am trying to install the Application Management Pack without success. It fails half way through with

"Unable to insert licensing information into database" Error = [empty].

I am using Windows 2003 Enterprise with SQL 2000 SP3a, tried with local administrator, MOM service account and domain admin account all with membership to ALL local MOM groups.

MOM is MOM 2000 with SP1 and the Hotfix for Office XP (version SP2) to prevent the OnePoint Service crashing as a result of Outlook 2002 issues. It is a member of a Windows 2000 based Active Directory Domain.

This server has all MOM components installed on it and has a NetBIOS name of 6 characters and a DNS name of NetBIOS name + 6 character suffix + 3 character tld (15 char total).

Found the answer.

There is a bug with the integration to SQL Server 2000. I changed the SA password to one with less than 8 characters and the installation went through without a problem. Set the characters to 9 and the installation failed as before!

Forgot to mention, the Application Management Pack is SP1 as well.
