Oracle Management Server cannot be started

I just installed Oracle Server Enterprise Edition 8.1.7 on a Windows 2000 Server. The installation was fine, the database is up and running.

Then I wanted to use Enterprise Manager. It needs Management Server, so I created a new Repository with the Configuration Assistant. I told the Assistant to create a new user for the Repository, so the user's access rights should be ok.

However, when starting the Management Server the following is given:

oemctrl für Windows NT: Version 2.2.0.0.0 Copyright (c) 1998, 2000, Oracle Corporation. Alle Rechte vorbehalten. Oracle Management Server wird hochgefahren... [main][2001-10-15:8:38:54:514] VdbSession.processError: errorCode >12640<  [main][2001-10-15:8:38:54:514] VdbSession.processError: errorMsg

VXA-2018 :

Translating the important messages into English would result in

• initializing the "adapter for testing the access rights" failed
• logon to the OMS registration service not possible
• error when booting the Oracle Management Server

Does anybody have a clue on what might be wrong?
