The Commerce Server checkout pipeline may fail after you install Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2

SYMPTOMS

After you install Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2), the Microsoft Commerce Server checkout pipeline may fail.

CAUSE

To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
  1. Click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Component Services.
  2. Expand Component Services, expand Computers, right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
  3. Click the MSDTC tab, and then click Security Configuration.
  4. In the Transaction Manager Communication area, click No Authentication Required, and then click OK.
  5. To restart the service, click Yes in the DTC Console Message dialog box.
