Datastage 8 installation problem

[splayer]

I am installing Datastage 8 Server(not client) on a Windows XP SP2 machine. I installed the following:

1)Oracle 10.2G for metadata repository
2)MS Visual C++ 2005

I also followed the Installation Guide and created a xmeta database and xmeta user for metadata repository. However, whenever I go to install Datastage Server, it errors out about half way through.

Here are first few lines of native_stderr.log:

------------------------------------------------------------

I would appreciate any help.
