Hi,

 

I'm trying to install MySQL 5.0.20a on a Windows 2003 Server box and keep
getting MSI error 11708.

 

Here's the event viewer info:

I ran it again this AM (after rebooting, etc.) and built an install log
file. here's what I think are the relevant lines:

Hopefully somebody can provide some insight... 

I also noticed that the property says that the license wasn't agreed to, but
I never was prompted to agree to the license:
