If the installation fails, was there a prior installation attempt? Was the FG8user account and the FG8 Database removed before attempting to install again?
Q: It looks like my FG8 database was created but not the SQL Server account. The installation fails. A: This issue typically occurs when installing Fitnessgram 8.3 on SQL Server 2005. This problem is likely related to a password setting. When FG8 District is being installed the setup process creates a SQL Server (not domain) account with a password with 4 or 5 characters. When SQL 2005 Server was previously added to a Windows Domain, it inherited the Security Policy settings for passwords (e.g., min number of characters typically set to greater than 5, etc.). If the password settings require a password of 6 characters or more, the FG8 installation process will create the database, but will not be able to create the SQL Server account. The installation fails with no intuitive error message displayed. There are a couple of ways to get around this issue. Option 1 – preferred by system administrators. • Remove SQL Server from the Domain (done on the SQL Server itself). It can be configured
