Environment
Novell
ZENworks 7.5 Asset Management - ZAM7.5
Microsoft
SQL 2005 database on remote server
Situation
After a new
install, errors running updates, inventory etc.
ERROR (from
TSCMgrEvent, TaskServerCoreEvent, ServerUpgradeCoreEvent
etc.):
Application ... Error at ... File Store Initialization Failed
[2.4.1200] This application was unable to obtain data necessary to access the file store.
Manual inspection of the database showed
missing tables and particularly, NC_FILESTORE exists, but is
empty.
Resolution
In this
particular case, the ZAM server install was done from a remote
client, via RDP session, using the remote client CD for
installation source. Copying the installation files to the
ZAM server or using the ZAM server CD drive and reinstalling after
uninstalling and removing the old database resolved the
problem.
