Hi,

Has anyone come across the following installation error and know how to
troubleshoot:

"The MOF compiler could not connect with the WMI server. This is either
because of a semantic error such as an incompatibility with the existing WMI
repository or an actual error such as the failure of the WMI server to start."

So a solution or a methodology would be appreciated.

This was on a Windows 2008 Server Enterprise box.

TIA

This might help (from Details.txt):

Hi ,

I had received the same error. This error is because of the WMI service was
not installed. Go to Add and Remove Programs and select "Turn Windows
features on or off" link and search to WMI service and Install it. Also
install an IIS service required later for working of Analysis feature.

Regards,
Harry
