-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Systems Management Server version 1.2 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When installing a Systems Management Server 1.2 client, the installation script
(SMSLS or RUNSMS) fails with the following error message:

  ERROR: 529
  Veuillez contacter votre administrateur systeme.

The error message is NOT displayed in English. The translation is: "Please
contact your system administrator."

A verbose output shows that CLISETUP (Cli_dos.exe for MS-DOS) fails with an Error
529.

CAUSE
=====

This problem occurs when both of the following conditions are true:

- The language setting in Control Panel Regional Settings is set to something
  other than "English" on the client.

-and-

- A Systems Management Server 1.1 site with the Multi-Lingual Client Pack for
  Systems Management Server 1.1 has been upgraded to Systems Management Server
  version 1.2, but the Multi-Lingual Client Pack is still the "old" 1.1
  version.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, do either of the following:

- Remove (making a backup copy of the files first) the Systems Management
  Server 1.1 Multi-Lingual Client Pack for Systems Management Server 1.1, in
  order to install a default U. S. version of Systems Management Server 1.2
  Client. For a French version, remove Sms\Logon.srv\X86.bin\0000040C.

-or-

- Upgrade the Multi-Lingual Client Pack to the Systems Management Server 1.2
  version.


STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.2. We are researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
