I set up a CMS on AWS environment and after that I created the publication, target groups, schema, components, pages, CT, PT etc. But after creating the first publication I am not able to create any more publications and getting the below error

Can you elaborate on the setup, like is the database on the same server etc.? – Bart Koopman Apr 7 '14 at 8:42

Already disabled the firewall on database server, as the same error I initially got when I setup the CMS and that time I was not able to create anything in CMS but after disabling the firewall I was able to create everything. But now getting the same error while creating the publication. – Nash Apr 7 '14 at 8:44

@Bart: CMS and database are on different servers – Nash Apr 7 '14 at 8:45

2If you run DTCPing (microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=2868) on both the Content Manager and Database servers is the connection successfully established? – RjE Apr 7 '14 at 9:12

also, please check the event viewer for additional errors on CM Server. it could be related to timeouts as well. Errors in GUI could be misleading sometimes. – Saurabh Gangwar Apr 30 '14 at 18:24
Check the microsoft blog related to MSDTC and apply on both of your servers (CM server and DB server)

3can you add the link to which blog you are actually referring? When I Google for "the microsoft blog related to MSDTC" I can't really find it easily, so your answer might be correct, but as it is, it is not really helpful. – Bart Koopman Apr 30 '14 at 16:00
