Install And Uninstall Problem
Aug 18, 2006
I am having very simular problems with installation and uninstallation as Laydee is having.
There had never been another instance of any type installed on my local computer, I installed SQLExpress because we want to begin migrating to something for the future, and after reviewing all the other options out there decided SQL Server 2005 would be the most efficient use of time and resources.
The initial installation was successful, and we were doing well, writing the new GUI in VB6, then decided we would try VB 2005 in order to take advantage of the .NET framework, stored queries, etc. the first time we accessed the database (Thank God it wasn't the production database) it corrupted something, somewhere and we never could get anything to work. In addition, even the sa login on the instance (the only instance, btw) SQLExpress wouldn't work.
Consequently did an uninstall. But it apparently did not uninstall cleanly.
Re-installed, and could not re-create the instance SQLExpress, since the installation package thinks it's still installed.
Uninstalled again, completely. Online E-Book, sample databases, the whole 9 yards. Even went into the program files directory and deleted the associated directory, and did a re-install. Still was unable to create the named instance SQLExpress. same problem, it thinks that instance already exist.
Uninstalled again, deleted the directory, even went through the registry with a fine toothed comb getting rid of anything that appeared to refer to that instance (SQLExpress), which is no easy task since that instance is also the name of the software package. Re-installed. Same game.
We are about to the point of giving up since we have spent so much time just on trying to get the engine installed again properly that we are considering other, apparently more reliable options. To bad. We already bought SQL Server 2005, and it appears it will be sitting in the vault unopened. If something is this unstable we can't risk installing it on the production systems.
So before I have to declare this whole debacle a total loss, anyone have any suggestions?

Hi,
I am wondering if I am going to encounter any problems when I uninstall SQL Server 2005 standard edition and install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.
I am asking this as I found out today that a project I am developing (have been working on this for a few weeks now) that we're to be using Express edition. I am just hoping that I'm not going to come across any problems by doing this?

I know people have put up this question before but I wanted some updated feedback.
I just bought Visual Studio Tools for MS Office and it comes with SQL Developer Edition. I am currently using VS.net 2003 and using MSDE with MS SQL Web Data Administrator to build my dbs then export the sql script.
I was wondering if I should uninstall the MSDE and install the DEv Ed so I can develop all the triggers, constraints etc through Enterprise Manager, therefore having a better setup DB. I know you can do all that through code but why reinvent the wheel.
One last question, with the Dev Ed you just export the schema and scripts to a machine with SQL Server installed once the DB is ready for deployment ? Is this correct?
I lied one more question, does the uninstall of MSDE leave much of a mess, what is the best way to get rid of it.
Thanks in advance
Pete

After going through "Add and Remove Programs" and removing all components of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on my desktop I get an error telling me there is a copy already installed and to remove it before continuing. Well nothing shows up under "Add and Remove Programs"; Windows cleanup shows none of the SQL Server components; a check of the register (HOTKEYS.../unistall) have no SQL Server entries; under services all SQL Server services are disabled and not running.
I have followed all the steps in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909967 (Describes how to uninstall an instance of SQL Server 2005 manually).
Anyone out there got a solution? (Visual Studio 2005 eval is loaded on the box)

Hi,
I'm the following encountering WMI error message when invoking SQL2005 setup.
The SQL Server System Configuration Checker cannot be executed due to WMI configuration on the machine CAPRICORN Error:2147942405 (0x80070005).
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=20476&ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=9.00.2047.00&EvtSrc=setup.rll&EvtID=70342
I'ver found other postings related to WMI errors and tried the WMI fix batch, but to no avail. I noted the error code I have is 2147942405 which is different from other postings. And from examining setup log generated, this seems to be security related, but cannot find much help combing thru msdn/google, etc
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Trying to use WMI to monitor a SQLExpress DB and not getting anywhere. In fact, wmiprvse.exe croaks.
Here's the query I'm running from within CIM Studio:
select * from Win32_PerfRawData_MSSQLSQLEXPRESS_MSSQLSQLEXPRESSDatabases
(Just did a search for SQL and found this class)
When trying to get an instance, WMIPRVSE throws this exception:
The exception unknown software exception (0xc000000d) occurred int he application at location 0x7814454d.
Ok to that, then another msgBox shows up with a title of
"Multiview Message" and text as below:
Win32: The remote procedure call failed.
An error occurred while attempting to retrieve the list of objects.
Any suggestions on this would be appreciated. Or perhaps another WMI class to use?
(XP Pro SP2, current with the patches; SQLExpress and MSDE both running)
thanks

We are trying to install the Standard Edition of SQL Server 2005. We already have SQL Express installed. Standard won't install and Express won't uninstall.
We have tried every suggestion we can find and some we made up. When we try to install Standard, we get to the bit where you choose what you want to install and the only thing available is workstation components.
There are so many cases of this on the Internat that I can't believe MS have not solved the issue. And I am stunned that they want to charge us more money to talk to us about how to fix something we just paid them an arm and a leg for!
What do I need to tell you to get some idea of where to go next with this?

Hello,
I need some space on my machine. I have SQL 7 on it, and I want to completely remove it from my system. I have done the following:
1. Used the SQL Uninstall to uninstall
2. Removed MSSQL7 folder using win explorer
3. MSSQL folder in (HKEY_LOCALMACHINESOFTWAREMICROSOFTMSSQL7)
4. Rebooted the machine
Yet I see traces of SQL7 on my machine! When I tried to reinstall, it told me that there was a license already on the machine.
What do I need to do to completely wipe it out?

I mistakenly installed SQL express using remote desktop, now I cannot do anything in it. Nobody could help with that either but based on posts with the same message, I tried uninstalling sql server. It wouldn't uninstall nor can I repair or reinstall. Uninstalling thru Add or Remove Programs only resulted in the program listing being removed from Add or Remove Programs. Most of the sql server programs are still installed. They can be run but continue to malfunction. When I try a new installation, I get a message that the programs are already installed. How can I correct this without reinstalling Win XP? Please help. Your valuable feedback is greatly appreciated.

I upgraded from SQL 6.5 to 7.0. Because I got a number of errors I went back
to 6.5. Now I want to try again to upgrade to 7.0. How can I do that?
Do I have to uninstall 7.0 and reinstall?
If I uninstall 7.0 will that blow away 6.5?
Thanks

Hi,
Somehow, ignorantly, I managed to install SQL 7 SP2 on a computer that didn't have SQL 7 yet, only 6.5. Don't ask me how it allowed this,
but it did. In any case, now I have a problem. When I try to install SQL 7, it tells me I can't install an older version than what already exists,
and that I should uninstall it first. Well, I looked in the Control Panel, but there's no entry there to uninstall. I deleted all the SQL 7.0 keys I could
find in the registry, and still it refuses to install. Can anyone tell me just what the heck I have to delete in order to get SQL 7 to install on this
machine?
Thanks!

While trying to 'tidy up' I ran into this error when trying to ininstall an SQL 7.0 beta: 'Unable to locate the installation log file C:MSSQL7Uninst.isu Uninstall will not continue'.
Search confirms that such a file is not present. I would reinstall (with the final product) then try Uninstall again, but disk space prohibits this.
Ideas to get around this?

I had replication installed between my two SQL servers with no problems until I changed the Primary Key attribute on one of the replicating tables. After that one change, I continued to receive errors for one week about failed replication (due to this one table!). I tried removing Replication so that I could "reinstall" it, but my Publicating server will not show the option to 'Install Publishing..' in the Server Tool. I followed the advice found on "SWYNK.com/ch17.asp" as it stated:
"Uninstalling Replication Completely
Carefully consider all options before you opt to remove replication entirely from the system. This operation shuts down all replication to all subscribing servers, and it does so in a somewhat brute force manner by removing the replication option from the server and deleting the distribution database.
There are three steps for uninstalling replication in SQL Server, as follows:
1)Discontinue all replication services, all publication and subscription services, between this system and other servers with which it is working.
2)Turn off the replication option at the server engine level.
3)Drop the distribution database. "
I still cannot get the option to Install Publishing again. In fact, I continue to get the option to "Uninstall Publishing.." in the Server tool. I stopped/started services dozens of times with no luck. Any help would be great !!!!

Hello
I have been following this document to uninstall SQL 2005 for a virtual server: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909967 and when following this step:
start /wait msiexec /x GUID /l*v c:sql_uninstall.log for the SQL Server 2005 GUID I get the following error:
'This installer package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it'.
There also is not a sql_uninstall.log file on the server.
All other components have uninstalled successfully using Add/Remove Programmes apart from the database engine which gets the below error:
'The set up has encountered an unexpected error while setting internal properties. The error is: Fatal error during installation.'
Any ideas?

Hi all,
I have a strange problem here. How to uninstall SQLEXPRESS when it does not appear in the "Add/remove program"?
Another problem is that I can't connect to the local server using SQL Server Enterprise manager. This is the error that i got:
"a connection could not be established to (My Computer name)SQLEXPRESS.
Reason: [SQL-DMO]you must use SQL Server 2005 management tools to connect to this server.
Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties (by right-clicking on the DHH-MCSQLEXPRESS node) and try again. "
I do not want to use SQL 2005 because of some issues. All I need is SQL 2000 to run properly.
Can anybody help me in this? Thanks.

Under Programs and Features, there are two instances of SQL Server: "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition" and "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools Express Edition". I have no need for them, and would like to remove them. However, whenever I try to remove them, I get the error message: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'SqlRun_Tools.msi' in the box below." Subsequently, I click on cancel, and I get the error message: "The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it." In addition to this, there are many registry entries that begin with "Microsoft.SqlServer." under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. My OS is Vista Ultimate 32-bit. Any help is appreciated. THanks.

I am currently running Windows XP Professional Service Pack2. It already has MSDE & SQL Server 2000 installed (although I just uninstalled MSDE in the vain hope that it might present the installer with a more straightforward upgrade).
I have tried installing with the default instance & a new instance (I don't really care - I just need to install the darn thing). I just want the basic database & Books On-line, nothing fancy.
