Configuration Wizard (Admin database) fails

We are currently installing a CS 2007 for a client. I have successfully completed the installation of CS and ran into some problems when running the Configuration Wizard.

The log file contains the following [excerpt]:

[09:21:14 INFO] Beginning configuration of feature Administration Database (Feature.MS.CS.Admin).

Followed by a couple of other undeclared variables.

This error comes from the SQL Server, right

The MSCS_Admin database is created by the wizard, but no tables or anything else is added to it.

The server is pretty standard; Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition and SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition as well.

 

[Edit]

Okay, so I figured out that the error relates to the admin_schema.sql file. Any ideas on why it's filled with junk It looks to be in utf-8 or something, but SQL Server should be able to handle that, right

    Well.

    Turns out the problem wasn't the installation but the file transfer. The client uploaded the whole installation directory through FTP and somehow a couple of files got corrupted during the transfer. I replaced the admin_schema.sql and admin_schema_increment.sql with the files on the CD and that solved the problem.
