The RPC server is unavailable

Error Description:

The RPC server is unavailable

Resolution:

User tried to reinstall ScanTools II (scan-only version) from the CD and gets this error:

ScanTools II (scan-only version)

The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could not be launched. The RPC server is unavailable.

If the DCOM object isn`t registered correctly in the registry, in some applications that could cause a 1722 error. That might generate a message that looked like "RPC Server Unavailable"."

The fix for this user was to install Q Local 1.5 which upgraded them to ScanTools Plus and resolved the problem.
