Error Message DescriptionFix

If your company is spinning up servers from the same Azure templates, specifically spinning up SQL and MobileTech app server from the same template, in some, or possibly all, circumstances, Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC) will fail. 

Uninstall and reinstall DTC on either machine (usually safest to do on the App server). We recommend that you utilize the Powershell cmdlets for uninstall-dtc and install-dtc to do the uninstall/re-install.  

  1. To start a Windows PowerShell session in a Command Prompt window, type PowerShell.
  2. In Windows Powershell, run the following commands:
    1. Cmdlet to uninstall DTC
      Uninstall-Dtc -Confirm:$false
    2. Cmdlet to install DTC
      Install-Dtc -LogPath "C:\Windows\system32\MSDtc" -StartType AutoStart
    3. Cmlet to configure DTC
      Set-DtcNetworkSetting -DtcName "Local" -RemoteClientAccessEnabled:$true -RemoteAdministrationAccessEnabled:$true -InboundTransactionsEnabled:$true -OutboundTransactionsEnabled:$true -AuthenticationLevel NoAuth -Confirm:$false
  3. Restart IIS and the DTC service. You may need to reboot the app server.
