Error 101

[Anne]

Hi--I've been scrolling (no "search"--bummer) through
the install newsgroup discussions and don't see anything
later than July 13 on this error. And I can't find any
clear recommended fix. The beta software was working
GREAT until the upgrade. Since then, I've tried
uninstalling and reinstalling, but no go--same error
101. I'm running XP Pro.

I'm reluctant to "try" some of the "maybe" fixes because
I've already got other problems coming up, for example
RealOne player error messages that I'd never seen before
today.

Hope to hear from someone soon. (One of the July 12 posts
suggested writing directly to Jeff Dillon who is working
on this--done that.) If there's no fix available yet, is
there someway to reinstall the older version? Thanks.

I have the same problem.
Wich is the solution?

 

[Ron]

I posted the following on July 20 that may help.
It's a workaround until a permanent solution is available
but it works for me.

--------

Hi all,

This may help tackling the error 101 problem and is a
temporary workaround to get the latest build going.
It works on my system, which is running XP Pro SP2.

1) Uninstall build 614 by RMB clicking on the (latest)
MAS MSI file located in <systemdrive:>\Windows\Downloaded
Installations\<MAS dir>
and choosing Uninstall from the menu.
2) Delete any MAS files and directories that remain,
including the MSI files located in
<systemdrive:>\Windows\Downloaded Installations\<MAS dir>
and the gcUncompress.dll file in Windows\System32.
3) Reboot
4) Download the latest build (615) and install it the
usual way.
5) Reboot
6) Run MAS - Error 101 appears
7) Repair build 615 by RMB clicking on the new MAS MSI
file located in <systemdrive:>\Windows\Downloaded
Installations\<MAS dir>
and choosing Repair from the menu.
8) DO NOT reboot when asked
9) Running MAS now works fine (at least it does here)

When you reboot the error 101 problem is back again.
Workaround at this point is following step 7-9 again.

HTH at least some people!

There are two fixes that I've seen that have sufficient weight behind them
that I'd try each of them. One is from Steve Dodson, Microsoft:
--------------------------------------------------
We have a possible workaround in place for the 101 error. Please test this
and provide feedback on the following steps:

For Windows XP Professional:
To change the setting on Windows XP Professional, open "Local Security
Policy" in Administrative Tools, or run secpol.msc. You need to be an admin
to use this tool. In the left pane, browse to Security Settings \ Local
Policies \ Security Options. The policy name is "System objects: Default
owner for objects created by members of the Administrators group". The
allowable settings are "Administrators group" or "Object creator". Change it
to "Administrators group." After that change has been made, please refresh
the policy by typing: "gpupdate /force" from a command prompt.

For Windows XP Home Edition:

you understand how to restore the registry if a problem occurs. For

you do not feel comfortable doing this, do not try this workaround.

In Regedit, navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa. Find the value
called "nodefaultadminowner". The supported values are "0" for
"Administrators group", or "1" for "Object creator". Set the value to 0.

Please provide feedback if this is working.

Bill,

As outlined earlier, both fixes don't work for me.
All my systems running XP work fine with MAS except for
one. The only thing that works is the workaround outlined
in this thread.
Before re-booting all is okay, after re-booting there's
Error 101 until doing a RMB menu > Repair install on the
MAS MSI and without re-booting afterwards.

Also like to note that any build prior to 614/615 worked
without problems.

I am willing to work with MS if I can to solve the issue
as it is currently driving me nuts!
And let's face it, MAS - when running - is quite good!

I hear you--but I'm not sure Anne has the same precise issue as you.

I also hear you on working with MS. I'll see if they feel they need more
input on this issue--the unusual nature of this beta may mitigate against
that, though.
