When the installer gets to the "Building Strataframe Databases" section of the "Configuring Strataframe" dialog, an error dialog pops up titled ".NET Framework Installation Utility" that says it has encountered a problem and needs to close. The error signature is:

EventType : clr20r3     P1 : installutil.exe     P2 : 2.0.50727.42    
P3 : 4333af65     P4 : microfour strataframe dbengine     P5 : 1.6.0.0    
P6 : 45d3946e     P7 : 11b     P8 : 0     P9 : system.io.filenotfoundexception

I have encountered this error before which is why I went to the trouble of creating a clean environment in which to do the install.

The problem seems to be that the strataframe databases are not getting created. The default location that the SQL Server 2005 has created for databases is "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data". This path is different than the one that I am familiar with from previous versions of SQL Server, but that's what the MS Setup program created when it installed the server. I have no idea if this is a factor in the error that was generated.

I really need some help figuring out what I have done wrong so that I can correct my mistakes and end up with a successful install.

Thanks in advance
