Issue
Whilst trying to Install Lync 2010 Server components the Install mail fail during and the following message is logged:
Error returned while installing Server.msi(RegistrarStore), code 1603
Cause
This may occur if the Admin$ Shares have been removed from the local server or SQL server (C$, D$)
Resolution
Re-create the admin shares on the server that the Intstall fails.
Pretty amazing that you could found an answer in this ...
ReplyDeleteIn our company, my other technicians are deploying Windows servers without "admin shares" and i was searching like 3 hours to find a solution ...
I removed this :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters\ AutoShareServer
Then :
net stop LanManServer
net start LanManServer
And then i relaunched Lync installation and it passed !
Well done.
