Client Server install fails with "invalid service" name erro

Doing Client/Server Full install fails with invalid service name error.

At the end of the Client/Server Full installation process user received the following error message:Pervasive.SQL 2000 (transactional) is an invalid service name.

In this case it turned out that the user was trying to direct the Pervasive installation to a mapped drive. As a general guideline, the Client/Server Full install must be done directly at the server computer. And it is preferable to accept the default location for Pervasive, but if a different, specific drive is desired, a local, physical drive letter must be specified. (NOTE: this does not apply to Novell Netware installations.)
