Hi all, I'm trying to install MSDE in silent mode and without using a .ini file (on a machine with windows 2000 server and SQL 2000 already insatalled).
At the end of the installation, the machine reboot automatically, but I need to stop this reboot.
Someone can help me?
Thanks all
I installed SP1 for SS 2005 on a quasi-production server, which is why I didn't mind rebooting the server. Unfortunately, it's been 5 hours and the server still hasn't rebooted. (I see a gray screen and a pointer, and that's it... but there's still disk access happening. I'm not really sure what it's doing.)
What's the best way to avoid the 5 hour reboot in the future?
Thanks,
Robert
Hello,
OS: Windows XP Embedded
MSDE: 2000 SP3 to SP4
I want to avoid reboot after upgrading MSDE from SP3 to SP4.
setup.exe seems to no option to avoid reboot.
The resason to avoid reboot is continue to do some process after upgrade MSDE.

Please help,I am trying to install MSDE 2000 so that Backup exec will run on thisserver. I have gotten so far as to find an entry in my SQLSTP.TXT filethat says that c:mssql7 was detected so the install fails.Now, to start with there is no directory called C:mssql7 on thisserver. I have gone through all MS articles on manual removal of SQLserver and instances. I have searched the registry for mssql7 andremoved any keys that matched, as per MS article I have searched onSQLBOOT.dll and it is not present anywhere on my system and I still getthe same results.2:07:44 Begin Action: Detection12:07:44 SQL Server version already installed: 7.00.62312:07:44 Previous Install SQL Path: C:MSSQL712:07:44 Previous Install SQL Data Path: C:MSSQL712:07:44 End Action Detection12:07:44 Begin Action: ODBCLocked12:07:44 End Action ODBCLocked12:07:44 GetDefinition returned: 112:07:44 Previous SQL Server ProductType: MSDE [0x4]12:07:44 This combination of Package and Operating System allows a fullproduct install.can anyone think of anything here..what else could be causing the server to think there is a previousversion of SQL 7 on this box!!!?

Hi All
I am having a little trouble setting up MSDE.
I downloaded the most recent version of MSDE (sql2ksp3.exe) from the Microsoft site to my desktop.
I double clcked on the files to extract them, it created a sql2ksp3 dir on c drive.
I went to command prompt and entered the following in the c:/sql2ksp3/msde directory:
setup.exe DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=1 SAPWD=**REMOVED** then enter.
The setup wizard started then finished after about 30 seconds.
I can't find MSDE anywhere as program just a folder with the original setup programs.
I know this is a total gummy question, can anyone point me in the right direction.
I didn't have MSDE or SQL Server prevoiusly on the system.
Thanks in advance

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi Folks,
I've jumped over from the sister site xtremevbtalk.com to ask the question:
Has anyone ever seen an issue where when installing MSDE, during the installation the pc reboots of its own accord?
After the MDAC is installed as part of the installation the pc reboots and upon boot up, MSDE is not in the program files directory. Instead it's sitting in the C: root. This occurs for a straight MSDE install or with an Instancename install.
There does exist a Microsoft SQL Server folder in the Program Files but it is incomplete. It's missing the Binn folder. Also, there is no reference to MSDE in the Add/Remove programs tool but ther MSDE service does show up in the Services. However I cannot start these as they are pointing to the correct location.
To date, I have tried removing the instance and installation from the registry. I have turned off all AntiVirus software. I have ensured I am using an Admin user profile. I have tried a blank sa passowrd for the installation. all of this is to no avail.
I am seriously stuck with this now and I am in dire need of a resolution so if anybody has any ideas or has seen this one before, I love some help.
Thanks,
Gb :)
Hi
I'm trying to install MSDE 2000 on my WIN XP machine using the setup.exe, but it always gives me error saying "set strong sa password" after the message " Please Wait while windows configures Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine"
I also tried installing it by command line command below, it shows that its configuring and installing software, but disappears in the middle. I see the SqlServer agent installed and also folders inside C:Program FilesMicrosoft Sql Server folder, but SQL is still not listed in the installed programs
msiexec /i sql2000.msi /log exception.log instancename="imalla
" securitymode=sql sapwd="sapassword"
Your help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Hi,
I've a problem with connecting to my local MSDE installation. I'm using Windows XP Pro SP1 and logged in as administrator.
I've installed MSDE without further options (=setup SAPWD="password"). After that I installed some examples from Microsofts '101 Visual Basic.NET applications' using 'setup SAPWD="password" INSTANCENAME="NetSDK"'. Now I have 2 services running, 'MSSQLServer' and 'MSSQL$NetSDK'.
Then I followed the examples from a german book and created a Dataset etc. to access data from the Northwind database. The following line is created as SQLConnection1:
Me.SqlConnection1.ConnectionString = "workstation id=""COMPUTERNAME"";packet size=4096;integrated security=SSPI;data source=" & _
"""(local)NetSDK"";persist security info=False;initial catalog=Northwind"
CType(Me.DataSet11, System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize).EndInit( )
When I right-click on the SQLDataAdapter1 and select 'Preview Data' everything works fine and I could see 9 Employee records. But when I then start the application it could not connect to the server. The error appears already in the first line, a simple connection call:
Me.SqlConnection1.Open()
Please could someone help me solve this issue? I already read several postings, here, on other sides, and on MSDN. I found information about a user account 'APSNET' which I am not allowed to implement due to security reasons. I also found the information about named pipes and TCP/IP, and so I added 'Network Library =dbmssocn' to the end of the SQLConnection-string, but with no success :-(
Many Thanks in advance for your support!
I am installtion MSDE on a Windows XP Pro. The install gets through to 5 seconds and freezes. THis sits for about an hour and nothing happens. The Microsoft SQL Server folder is created, but the services are not created. We tried to reinstall many times and removed the registry key before each reinstall (after uninstalling and rebooting). Any ideas about what could be wrong?
View 9 Replies View RelatedHi all, I know read all the posts already up on this subject... Hear me out.
Can anyone give an easy to understand, and I mean easy method for installing MSDE and configuring it so that I can connect to my server using Visual Studio.NET C#. I am having no end of troubles and I don't really understand why. I can log into osql using
osql -S BIGJ -E
that gets me to
1>
No problems so far
but when I try to connect using
SqlConnection("Server=BIGJ;DataBase=registeredUsers;Integrated Security=SSPI");
I am having no luck and I don't really understand why
Here is the stack trace
[SqlException: Login failed for user 'BIGJASPNET'.] System.Data.SqlClient.ConnectionPool.GetConnection(Boolean& isInTransaction) System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionPoolManager.GetPooledConnection(SqlConnectionString options, Boolean& isInTransaction) System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.Open() ADOAccess.WebForm1.Button1_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in c:inetpubwwwrootadoaccesswebform1.aspx.cs:52 System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e) System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.System.Web.UI.IPostBackEventHandler.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument) System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(IPostBackEventHandler sourceControl, String eventArgument) System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(NameValueCollection postData) System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain()
I think I am not understanding the fundamentals of SQL server or something so if anyone can help or point me to a good tutorial that will help me not only solve my problem but also understand what is going onas well.
Thanks everyone
I am trying to install msde release A on a Windows 2000 Pro, I specified a strong password but the installation failed. I also verified that the service SERVER is started. I'am attaching the log file.
Thanks for any help
the service is already automatic, but when starting Windows XP MSDE "asks" to be installed correctly, run setup again and as you can imagine i did so. I can't find the answer
please help me

I try to install MSDE as a new instance (SQL2) on my computer with Windows 2000 Professional, but a problem occurs and instalaltion does not complete successfully. I am an administrator of the computer. The application log contains the following errors descriptions:
"The SYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesMSSQL$SQL2Perfo rmance key could not be opened or accessed in order to install counter strings.The Win32 status returned by the call is in the Record Data as DWORD 0. " and
"Installing the performance counter strings for MSSQL$SQL2 failed. The Error code is DWORD 0 of the Record Data. "
Have someone experienced a similar problem?
Installation of MSDE 2000 fails on 64-bit Windows Vista (Build 5308).
The error message is "Setup failed to configure the server.Please refer the error logs for more information". No error log can be found on the machine at the time of installation. Please let me know if anyone else has encountered this problem?
Is it possible to install MSDE 2000 on 64-bit Windows Vista(Build 5308)?
Thanks in advance.
Our NT person thinks that rebooting the SQL 2000 (on WIn 2000) server every month is a good idea (this is a client production box). I am strongly against it. For starters any trends I am trying to capture with performance monitor become useless every time we do this. I am willing to listen to every one's opinion, but I hope by now that SQL 2000 is stable enough not to have to do this.

Do you guys reboot your SQL 2005 servers at a set schedule? If so, how often are you rebooting the servers?
