Error message: DBM setup fails with error 0x80040707

This happened on Windows Server 2008 R2 but can supposedly happen on other operating systems as well. It turns out that this problem was caused by a previous installation of Adobe Reader 9.5 which modifies parts of the Windows Installer package in a way that is incompatible with the DBM setup. Removing/De installing Adobe Reader 9.5 and then executing the DBM setup works fine. It is currently unclear if newer versions of Adobe Reader do have the same problem. If you have further questions or relevant information, please contact the support team.
