Expert System (Technical Diagnosis)

I'm currently supporting a small part of software which is really error prone. There are a lot of things people can do wrong while installation and so on.

So now i remembered things called "expert systems" we played around with in school. So the program asked you questions and leads you to the solution of your problem. I'd re开发者_JS百科ally like to make such a system and searched for solutions on the internet.

But i couldn't find a program to create such expert systems.

Do you have any suggestions or do i really have to program it myself?

Please refer to this question and its related answers on SO.

Personnaly, I prefer a Prolog based solution due to early exposure to Turbo Prolog back in 1987:
