Everything goes on fine until the SQL Server Database Sersvices configuring and a pop-up says the following:
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been
provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For
each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
I have no idea how to come over this.
Any help would be appreciated.
PS I don't know what AGTACCOUNT or AGTPASSWORD is, so maybe the error might be there. If not, anybody willing to explain to me what it is, it would be GREATLY appreciated.
What is the correct command line parameters to SQLEXPR32.exe that will default the Log On As: properties for the instance to use the Built-in account of Local System & Local Service?
I need it to be set to Local System immediately on install without having to go into the configuration manager. When I run the SQLEXPR32.exe right now I get the Network Service defaulted.
It installs the SQL Server and Reporting Services. It configures (creates Virtual Directories for report server and database) but it is not initializing the Report Server.
Having done the installation when i check the Report Server Status it was running and everything seems to be OK except it wasn't initialized.
I just started using SQL 2005 and having a bit of struggle.
I'm having difficulty trying to use the .ini file to install sql express. This is the command I use in Command Prompt: start /wait expresssetup.exe /settings setup.ini /qn echo %errorlevel%
Then I get an error level of €˜-204€™, which I couldn€™t find the meaning on the internet or anywhere else.
But when I move the parameters from the .ini file to the batch file and the process worked. SQL started installing, until it comes to the SQL Server Database Services component. Then I get the following error message:
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
I am using installshield to distribute SQL Server 2005 Express. I have the SQLEXPR.EXE file and I want to run it in /qb mode so the user can see the pretty dialogs pop up but not have to click anything.
I would be very grateful if someone could take a look at my command line install and offer advice on if I am doing it correctly.
The reason I am asking is because I cannot seem to get the server installed without having errors during the installation: "The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated with service-specific error 17113 (0x42D9)"
Looking at the server error log indicates that master.mdf was not in the data directory (I have however specified a different data directory for ease of backup by our software and this is created during the install but does not have this database in the data directory - it is however in the template data directory!
I also get this error when the SQL Server service is started: "The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 3417 (0xD59)."
All advice is welcome. Please see below my batch file. Also, if you think I should do this in a different way then please let me know. I basically want to install SQL server on a customer computer and automate the install so the custoemr does not need to enter any information.
The goal of this install is: [1] Deply a custom .Net application and SQL server at the same time on the same computer without user input. [2] Allow remote .Net applications (designed by myself also) to connect over a LAN (and later maybe over a WAN) to the database to the above database.
The command line is this (I have also included the batch file I am usign below). For ease of reading I have put the parameters on a new line below:
SET MODE=/qb SET SETUP_EXE=sqlfilessetup.exe %MODE% SET SQLDATADIR=c:SqlData
SET SET_USERNAME=username="CustomerUsername" SET SET_COMPANYNAME=companyname="OurCompany" SET SET_ADDLOCAL=addlocal="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK" SET SET_DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=disablenetworkprotocols="0" SET SET_INSTANCENAME=instancename="MSSQLSERVER"
SET SET_INSTALLSQLDATADIR=INSTALLSQLDATADIR="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SAVESYSDB=SAVESYSDB="1" SET SET_USESYSDB=USESYSDB="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SQLAUTOSTART=SQLAUTOSTART="1" SET SET_SECURITYMODE=SECURITYMODE="SQL"
@REM === RE-INSTALL PARAMS - NOT CURRENTLY BEING USED?? SHOULD I ADD THESE ALSO? === SET SET_REINSTALLMODE=REINSTALLMODE="omus" SET SET_REINSTALL=REINSTALL="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK" SET SET_REBUILDDATABASE=REBUILDDATABASE="1"
I am trying to setup my install script to install SQL Express 2005 using the SQL Security Mode and setting the SA Password by passing in parameters from the command line.
setup.exe SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD="123456"
This runs the install, but still prompts me during the installation to enter an SA Password.
Thanks.

I keep getting sqlbrowser service could not be validated when I try to run slqservr32 from a vbscript on the commit event. I basically need to create an instance on the customers local machine, and give them say a sql login and password with sqlbrowser and everything else required so I can connect to it and create the databases we have. I use the following command line args.
Im not sure what to do. I cant configure anything or start the sqlbrowser service because its not installed yet. I need to create new logins hence im using the command line install. Does anyone have any suggestions? im stuck.
Hi I need to Install the SQL server 2008 express with Instance name and Sa password parameter in silent mode . I tried couple of command line arguments for this. but It didn't work, I got the setup failure error message "The setting 'QB' specified is not recognized.Error code 0x84B40003."

Hello everyone. I'm not very experienced with SQL Server Express. As a matter of fact, I've been with it for less than a week. I'm currently working on a project in which I need to distribute SQL Server Express in a fast and comfortable way to install to users that aren't quite computer-abled and to prevent confusion for them, we want to prepare a simple batch file that installs everything through commandline, with all the inputs already given.
The type of installation that we want to achieve is as follows: -We want it to be in the default instance -We want the service to be SQL server, using the built-in System account, using the Local system -We want to use the Authentication Mode to be the Mixed Mode, using the following password for the "sa" account: mySentences -We want to disable the access of all users who aren't the "sa" user
The command line that I'm currently using I'm sure that is incorrect:
Our application installation setup needs to be able to detect:
Is SQL Server 2005 Express Installed?
If false, run the SP2 Installation Is SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Express SP1 Installed?
If false, run the SP2 Installation with Update Switch Is SQL Server 2005 (not Express) Installed
If true, abort installation with a mesage.
Can you direct me to some documentation about testing for these environments or just if someone has some scripts that will run in InstallShield, that would be great.
ALSO, can you direct me to information about using the command line update switch for the Express SP2 Installer?
I need to install a customed SQL server express instance on the client's computer by using the Command prompt installation. I've already defined the security settings and everything i need but i was wondering if is possible to attach a mdf database during the installation. Perhaps there is a paramenter i can include in the in the ini file.
I am working on Win2K Pro & had SQL Server 2005 Express & SQL Server Management Studio installed. The SQL Server name was MerverSQLEXPRESS. Due to some unavoidable reasons, I had to repair (& not re-install) Win2K but after doing so, I found that I am not able to connect to the database server. I uninstalled all the components related to SQL Server 2005 Express (like Management Studio, Support Files, BOL etc.) from my m/c & then restarted my m/c.
After doing so, I first re-installed SQL Server 2005 Express & other related components (I intended to install SQL Server 2005 Management Studio after installing SQL Server 2005 Express). While installing SQL Server 2005 Express, all the steps get executed successfully except for the last one which happens to be SQL Server Database Services. At this point, I get the following error:
An instance with the same name is already installed on this computer. To proceed with SQL Server Setup, provide a unique instance name.
The problem is after I click the OK button, I am not even given the option to change the instance name! The Status message corresponding to SQL Server Database Services just says Setup failed. Refer to the Setup log for details. Finally, when I click the Next button, the next dialog finishes the Setup (showing the Finish button).
Now how do I overcome this problem? Please note that the Authentication mode I am using is Windows Authentication.
Someone please suggest me a concrete solution. It's driving me nuts! My receding hairline is getting further receded!
Lastly, please note that, as far as possible, I would like to keep the instance name as MerverSQLEXPRESS only.
I have a problem installing SQL express from a CD, it installs fine but the installation wizard does not load automatically, so I have tried to setup manually through Add and Remove programs.
But when I get pass System configuration check menu, i do not get the Registration info menu, it goes straight to SQL server express setup and then to another server express setup menu (it skips 3 menu pages) it should have MSML5 components such as SQL setup files, SQL native client, SQL VSS writer etc but it is completely empty. Then I get the finish screen.
However, when I uninstall SQL express, I see the MSML screen with all the components listed before it uninstalls.
I hope this makes sense and I hope someone can help.
to install sql server express 2005, do i have to install the windows installer 3.0. when i run the setup, after extracting the files, there is a message displaying such that to continue installation, you need to install the windows installer 3.0.
Downloaded the program and followed the instructions (as vague as they are) the only thing I see to execute is the configuration tools. I am certain I have missed something. Can anyone assist?
I just want to confirm that I can just install it on top of what I already I have.
About 2 months ago, I installed Visual Studio 2005, full edition (not express).
I can't remember what I did regarding SQL... whether I installed anything or not.
On my PC at the moment, in the Control Panel ---> "add/remove programs" section, I have :-
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Size 197,00MB Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile [ENU] Developer Tools Size 6,95MB Microsoft SQL Server Native Client Size 4,16MB Microsoft SQL Server Setup Support Files (English) Size 20,60MB Microsoft SQL Server VSS Writer Size 0,66MB
From my start menu --> All Programs, the only SQL program is "Microsoft SQL Server 2005", and this just has one sub-menu to "configuration tools". I cannot see a link to any SQL server, so I don't think I have it installed.
Should I uninstall the 5 programs listed above first ? Or can I just install SQL Server 2005 Express on top of what I already have ?
I'm new to programming and I've got to develop a db for a uni project. However after downloading SQL Server 2005 express ed, I found that I could not find the command prompt to start writing scripts (black and white DOS screem). I only have the configuration tool option in my menu (within that server configuration manager, error & usage reporting and server surface area config).
How do I get started with creating my database, please help....................
I'm I not looking in the right place for the console (command prompt to run scripts) or have I not downloaded the right stuff.

The program shortcut "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" seems to be mising from the "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" Start menu added by the current Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit. Where is it? How to workaround?
I am trying to do Download details SQL Server 2005 Samples and Sample Databases (April 2006) -> GettingStartedWithSQLSamples.htm which says "a. Open a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 command prompt. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, point to Visual Studio Tools, and then click Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt." but I can find no such command prompt within "Visual Studio Tools", only "Visual Studio 2005 Remote Debugger{, Configuration Wizard}".
What's wrong? How to fix or workaround? I'd install .NET SDK 2.0 to get it's Command Prompt but that's about 570MB merely for a command prompt!

Thanks
When I try to install SQL Server 2005 Express I find that after a short time it discontinues and say's "Installation not completed etc" on looking at the logs it say.s "Could not find IIS" do I need XP Pro to be able to install SQL Server Thanks in advance
I've been having horrific problems installing and working with SQL Server Express 2005. I installed SSE with the Visual Web Developer tool so I assumed that the instance would synch up; but it didn't (see log contents at end) so I opened up permissions wide open to all users, and even that didn't help. I don't know for sure but I suspect that the problem probably relates to my deleting SQL Server entries from the registry and all directories and files related to it on disk. After going through the process of uninstalling and reinstalling Express 2005 numerous times, I became frustrated and decided to pull out all stops. After reading and following all MSDN instructions and every blog and forum I could possibly locate on the subject, I could never resolve the problem of not reaching my database. I enabled all pipes and TCP/IP, etc. in the Configuration Manager, in both instances I had created; had run all command-line procedures recommended; and used cleanup programs that I could find, before reinstalling. I couldn't even get success in doing a test connection. I did get to a point where my ASP returned the message that it had connected but that the user didn't have permissions. I think I'm destined to working with Access, which is a shame since I have encouraged students in a Web development class I teach to work with the more powerful SQL Server products. They've had success with SQL Server, so I'm setting a bad example. Thanks in advance for help any of you can suggest.

What Service Pack do I need to download?

I've been trying to install SQL Server Express 2005 on my machine at home (XP Pro). However, when I get done, I get the following error when I restart my computer (at the login screen): "Your SQL Server installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with (Error getting instance ID from name.). Please uninstall the re-run setup to correct this problem."
I have uninstalled and reinstalled a number of times, with always thesame result. I had Visual Studio Orcas Beta 2 installed, so I thought that might have had something to do with it. I uninstalled everything development related on the machine (including all versions of the .NET Framework), and am still getting the same error. I tried installing along with Visual Studio 2005 (since it can be installed through the VS installer), same error.
I haven't been able to find any helpful information on this error. It seems everyone else is seeing it when they try to open Management Studio or some other program, but I am seeing it on system start.
Anyone have any thoughts? I'd really like to get this working. Thanks.
