Installing SQL Serer 2005 Developer Edition On Windows Vista
Oct 27, 2007
Dear friends...
I am having this problem since I installed the new windows Vista.
I am trying to install the SQL Server 2005 developer edition on Windows Vista, but After installation finish successfuly I open the start menu to surprise that I could not find the Shortcuts to open the SQL Server and create new database and tables etc... I opened the full path of the exe files "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsBinnVSShellCommon7IDE" but there are not any file there, even that I searched for the exe files names but they are not existed. It looks that after instalation complete that the SQL Server is not installed on Windows Vista.
So, my question is: After installing the SQL Server 2005 SP2 for windows Vista, will the problem be solved? Or there is something else to do ON WINDOWS VISTA.
Please, I need the answer for this problem, because I need to work on SQL Server 2005 very hard.
Hi, I have Vista Home premium edition and trying to install SQL Server developer edition 2005 as local administrator. I have already enabled IIS 7 and have Office Ultimate 2007 installed. When I run the set up program, I get a warning titled "Program Compatibility Assistant" that my Operating system may not be compatible with the version of sql server I am installing. It says after setup is complete, I should run SP2 of SQL Server 2005 with 3 buttons as "Check for solutions online", "run this program" and "cancel"...
My question, should I select "run this program" and after the setup completes, download SP2 and apply the patch?
I read some articles in forums that sounds like lot of issues to get sql server working on vista. Can some one direct me to correct options. This is my wife's machine so I dont want to experiment too much and blow her machine away. Please help.
I've installed Windows 2003 SP2 in a stand-alone cluster (will be adding a second node later). I'm now installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition 64-bit extended and would like to have the "Create a SQL Server Failover Cluster" box to not be grayed out. Even when I check the "SQL Server Database Services" box, it still has the cluster box grayed out.

Hi I am interested in taking MCTS exam 70-431 for sql server 2005 implementation and maintainance. I have been reading the hardware requirements for the instalation of sql server versions and realise that enterprise and developer editions have same minimum requirements for the operation system. I understand that the Developer Edition includes all the functionality of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, but it is licensed for use as a development and test system, not as a production server.
Also I undestand that the developer edition supports the Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 or later but the enterprise edition does not support this operating system. The evaluation/trial version is for the enterprise edition. Can I use the developer version of sql server 2005 for my practice exercises instead of using the trial version? I have all hardware requirements for the trial enterprise version except that I am using Microsoft windows Xp home edition version 2002 with SP2. I am trying to see if I can use the developer version of sql server 2005 as it is cheaper for me to buy this software than buying the new operating system for my computer. According to the microsoft book for the MCTS exam 70-431 there is a section which states that before you begin you should have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 running on your computer on an NTFS file system (NTFS) partition. Will I still be ok to use the book and be able to do all the tests in the book if i am using the developer version of sql server 2005 with my Microsoft windows Xp home edition than using the trial version which comes with the book?
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 (Developer edition) on my Vista Ultimate machine.
I've got the IIS 7 features turned on; I've got the SP2 patch CD; and I've run every install as administrator. I've run the SQL Server setup before and after the SP2 patch
I'm doing a named instance using the built-in system account with windows authentication mode.
Is there any COMPLETE guide as to how to work through all these installation problems?
I've gotten same results after about six attempts.
These always install:
SQL Setup Support Files SQL Native Client SQL VSS Writer SQL Server Backward Compatibility Files SQLXML4 SQL Server Books Online
Currently I am just trying to completely remove all Vista Ultimate's knowledge of installed instances of SQLServer 2005 Developer edition.
I cannot do this for some reason. This all began when I tried to install SQLServer 2005 and it installed but I could not connect to it. Now I have two installed instances that I cannot access, after removing all SQL programs from the Programs and Features icon in the control panel.
I tried running "WIndows Installer CleanUp Utility" as I read in a thread on this forum. This did not help. After going thru and removing all SQLServer programs using the "programs and features" icon in control panel... The installation process shows two installed instances of SQLServer 2005.
1) How can I completely erase all Vista Ultimate's knowledge of any SQLServer 2005 install and start over?
I have downloaded SQLServer 2005 SP 2, and run it, but clearly what I should do, and what Microsoft has asked me to do are not working...
2) What should I be doing to install SQLServer 2005 Developer Edition successfully?
I have been a strong supporter of Microsoft, but this is getting me very frustrated.
I want to install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on a computer with Vista Business. It looks like a lot of issues. (1) Can I do this? (2) Does anyone have any instrucions?
I could not install SQL Server 2005 Developer edition on my notebook with os Vista Home Premium. I know about the SP2 thing...but before coming that point, I can not either install the SQL Server 2005... When installing,when the database services point comes it gives an error about user thing...and then installation starts to rollback...
I check the IIS configuration from the net...And see that while activating IIS there is no option for Windows Auth. in Home Premium in Control Panel>Program...>Windows Programs.....etc....
SO ON VISTA HOME PREMIUM is SQL SERVER 2005 Dev. Edition can be installed or not?
Hi Everyone, Recently I installed Visual Studio 2005 which also installed SQL Express Edition with it. I then installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and am now able to see two instances SQLEXPRESS and MSSQLERVER. I do not want to use the Express version anymore, Do I have to have the Express version running or can I have just the Developer Edition ? Please help, can't find any help on the SQL website! Thanks
I am unable to successfully install SQL Server 2005 Developer edition here on a machine at work. Database service and client tools fails to install. I get the message that:"The computer running SQL Server setup does not meet the minimum system requirements for this SQL server release. Microsoft SQL Server is not supported by this operating system."
I am running Win XP pro sp2 with all the latest updates installed. What could be causing this and how do I fix it?
I tring to install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on Windows XP Pro but i not able to to so because of the following errors:-
Action "OpenPipeAction" failed during execution Action "CreatePipeAction" failed during execution. MsiOpenDatabase failed with 87 MsiOpenDatabase failed with 87 for MSI
Action "InstallDTSAction.9" failed during execution. Error information reported during run: Action: "InstallDTSAction.9" will be marked as failed due to the following condition: Condition "Package "9" either passed when it was last installed, or it has not been executed yet" returned false. Condition context: Prereq package will be failed due to the previous installation attempt returning: 1605
I downloaded SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition (x86) via MSDNAA (the package conatins 2 cd images the download program CRC checked them and all. I'm trying to install it on Windows XP prof. sp2).
When I mount the first CD, the installation menu comes up, if from the Install menu I select
"Server components, tools, Books Online, and samples"
an error message pops up saying:
"The application or DLL D:Setupsetupex.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette."
When I press OK, it pops up again, then after clicking on OK one more time the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup window comes up. After accepting the installation conditions and clicking next, it takes me to the "Installing Prerequisites" phrase, where when I press the Install button, it writes:
"Errors occured during the installation:
Error 193 installing .NET Framework 2.0"
Then the installation freezes, and I must press cancel (after that, the installation breaks saying: SQL Server Setup unexpectedly failed...)
If in the installation menu I choose
"
Install SQL Server Upgrade Advisor"
or
"
Run the SQL Native Client Installation Wizard"
a warning pops up saying:
"This installation package could not be opened.
Contact the application vendor to verify that this is a
valid Windows Installer package."
When I press OK, the warning disappeares, nothing happens.
I have .NET Framework 2.0, running VS2005 Prof. with no problem, had MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, but uninstalled it (never used), and just installed the latest MSI.
Searched the net for the "error 193" message, but haven't found anything that actually could help my case.
I get the following error installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition
Failed to install and configure assemblies C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSTasksMicrosoft.SqlServer.MSMQTask.dll in the COM+ catalog. Error: -2146233087 Error message: Unknown error 0x80131501 Error description: You must have administrative credentials to perform this task. Contact your system administrator for assistance.
I am installing on Windows XP with Admin privs.
There is nothing listed in COM+ Services for SQL.
The Distributed Transaction Coordinator service is running.
There is a previous installation of SQL 2000 Developer Edition installed.
I have seen some pretty old posts with the same error.
I was wondering if there was a final resolution, service pack, etc. that solves this problem?
I have a problem installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
When I start the setup, I get the message:
"SQL Server Setup could not run. Another instance of SQL Server Setup is already running. The running instance must complete before you can run SQL Server Setup again"
I am using Windows XP and have SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server Express 2005 installed.
I shut down both instances before I attempted to do the install but I still get the message.
I checked active tasks but no tasks with SQL* is running.
I downloaded the 2 CD ISO Format from msdn to install SQL Server 2005 English Developer Edition on my XP SP2 box.
I currently have SQL 2000 running. So Sql Server 2005 Dev Edition is to run side by side in a named instance.
From CD1, I launched default.hta and could not install Database Services. The log mentioned could not find a 'valid copy of xxx.msi' where xxx is VSS writer, Database Services or SQL XML4 etc...
I tried 3 times and each time it damaged my SQL2000 beyond repair.
I am having issues installing SQL 2005 DEV ED. on Vista RTM. During the install of the Native Client I recieve the following error which seems to mees up the rest of the intall package.
An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Server Native client cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli.msi'.
I downloaded vista and sql 2005 developer edition and both are burned to a DVD.
I am installing SQL 2005 developer edition on windows 2000. The server met all requirements for the installation. I get an €œUnexpected error occurred€? at the end of the installation right when the SQL engine installation is completed.

Hi, Trying to install SQL Server 2005 on Windows VISTA Ultimate, received following error:
- SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility (Warning)
Messages
SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility
Some components of this edition of SQL Server are not supported on this operating system. For details, see 'Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2005' in Microsoft SQL Server Books Online.
Hi, I am going to get a new laptop and was wondering in particular which versions of Windows Vista will run SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I want to be able to use all the features of SQL Server 2005, so IIS is needed for example ( I will be building end to end BI soutions using SQL Server Management Studio, SSIS, Analysis Services and Reporting Services.
There are numerous posts regarding this error when installing SQL Server 2005 on Windows Vista RTM thus I am starting a new thread in order to get resolution one way or another:SQL Server Setup failed to execute a command for server configuration. The error was [SQL Native Client]Windows user or group "USERNAMESQLServer2005MSFTEUser$USERNAME$MSSQLSERVER" not found. Check the name again... The error occurs when installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition, SQL Server Express SP1, SQL Server Express SP2 CTR (with or without the SP2 Toolkit package installed beforehand). The error occurs with or without UAC.
The installation then fails. Please advise if you have any insights. SQL Server Express SP2 CTR was announced as a workable version for Vista... note that this is not the case.
Firstly, can someone confirm that this can be done. Because I am starting to wonder.
I have downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Express install, and attempted to install. Everything goes well. Computer scan indicates that everything is in place, but then when it goes to install the components it states that the following components failed:
(Successful items were SQL Setup Support Files, SQL VSS Writer, OWC11, SQL Server Backward-Compatibility Files, SQL Server Management Studio Express).
For those Items that failed, I just get a message stating "Setup failed. Refer to Setup Log'. The setup log tells me little to nothing about why these components failed.
I am also getting the following message part way through install "An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Server Native Client cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli.mis'". Does anyone know what this means? I downloaded the install from microsoft.com just a few days ago, so if this isn't "valid", then where do I get a valid one.
I'm totally stuck. Have spent almost a day trawling documentation etc. to find why these have not installed, but cannot find any indication of why they wont install.. everything that needs to be in place is. Hoping someone has had similar issues and can help.
I am getting error when trying to install SQL 2005 express edition on Windows Vista (32-bit). It says that I don't have the framework (or it's corrupt), but I know that i don't need to install it again because it cames already with Vista.
I tried to install the framework, but it says that i've already the framework installed.
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
