Cannot Connect to Server When Using the Microsoft Forecaster Database Creation Wizard with SQL 2012 Server. I have tried installing the 2005 Native Clinet and Management Object Collection, but still receive the error. Any suggestions? Does Forecaster not work on 2012 server 64bit?

    Hi Deb,

    The Database Creation Wizard fails to complete the Forecaster install on your 64-bit server, as this was written up as bug # 458305.

    The following KB article explains the issue you may be receiving.
