I've installed and uninstalled MSDE a number of times on my development machine, and now I can't get MSDE 2000 Rel A to install at all. I think there is one or more key blocking the installer.

Does SQL Server Save Any Metadata In Registry Or Home Folder?
Jan 15, 2006I have my SQL Server installation on drive c: and the databases on anotherdrive. My c drive got corrupted and I am planning to restore it from an oldbackup. This means drive c will not be up to date.Is there anything that SQL Server saves in the registry or in its homefolder that changes frequently? I am hoping that nothing does which meansthe old backup will be good enough.Although I think the default databases are in the c drive, I will try toget them back from a recent backup.John Dalberg

Sql Server 2005 Install On SBS2003 Fails Due To Registry Key Permissions
Mar 10, 2008I am posting this to hopefully help someone else that encounters the same issue in the future...
Server: SBS 2003 Premium, with exchange and with all service packs/patches applied.
Server-name: NEWSERVER
Server migrated from: OLDSERVER
Important notes:
This server was migrated from another SBS 2003 on different HW following the instructions provided by microsoft.
The oldserver had exchange and sql 2005 installed on it.
The new server has Office Accounting 2005 installed, but I don't think that matters...
I am trying to install SQL 2005 from the SBS2003-R2 DVD onto the new server, and get the following error:

Once I duplicated the OLDSERVER group, renaming it to have NEWSERVER, the installation completed without error.
I hope this saves someone else a few hours of pain.

Problem With Registry Keys While Trying To Install SQL Server 2005 Express
Oct 7, 2007I've been trying to re-install VS2005 & MS SQL Server express, and I've hit a snag trying to install SQL Server express.
I started by trying to use the automatic uninstaller for VS and had problems so I tried manually uninstalling it (bad idea), which didn't work either, so I re-installed VS completely, then uninstalled it using the automatic uninstaller. I then tried installing, which worked for VS2005, but it didn't work for SQL Server. I've tried 3 times now, and each time it says SQL Server 2005 failed to install.
I checked the summary.txt log found in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOG and from what I understand, it seems that I don't have priveledges to change some registry keys. This has me really lost because I'm installing as Administrator, as you can see from the log below, so I should have access to the registry. Administrator is the only account on the computer so I know I haven't messed up priveledges from another account.
I've included the contents of the summary log below if anyone can make any sense of it and has any ideas I can try.

Microsoft Clustering Service Failed To Restore Registry Key For Resource SQL Server
Sep 27, 2004I got this system error log in the event viewer every time I start the SQL Server cluster resource:
The Microsoft Clustering Service failed restore a registry key for resource SQL Server when it was brought online. This error code was 2. Some changes may be lost.
Even though the SQL seems to be working fine now, I won't know if something drastic will happen later. :confused:
Searching the Internet for resolution, I saw this article. The Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 307469 (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=307469) requires using the Windows Server 2003 ClusterRecover utility to reset the server cluster check points.
I've not tried it because I don't know if this is the correct solution or if it will work or not.
Can I even solve the error without using the above utility? I also cannot afford to reinstall the clustering or SQL server. :mad:
Thanks in advance. :)
SQL Tools :: Can't Find Key LoginMode For Server 2012 Express In Windows 10 Registry
Sep 30, 2015In the registry in Windows 10, I looked inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server. Is LoginMode still in some subfolder of that, or has it been moved to another place? Perhaps a differently named key is now used. Or perhaps it's configured in a config file for SQL Sever 2012 express.

SSIS Packages In Registry?
May 30, 2006I thought so but I'm looking for a couple of packages and I am not be able to find any there at all.
SSIS Registry Configuration
Apr 27, 2006Hi,
I have an SSIS Package which reads the properties values from Registry. As per the constraint of SSIS I have created the keys under HKCU in the registry and things work fine from the designer.
But, when I schedule the SSIS Package to run under SQL Agent (which is running under Local System) the values of configuration do not seem to be picked up from Registry.
How I tested was:
I am picking up the server name for the Connection Manager from Registry and I set that value to an invalid servername. But, the job seems to be executing fine.
Using DTEXEC it fails as expected since, this is running under my credentials.
Also, SYSTEM has full control on the new regsitry keys.
Any information on this?
Thanks,
Gaurav

This query has only one problem if the user has made a 4º transfer th2 two last registry will have wrong "transf" and "origem_transf" values... but this is not my big problem...
The big problem is that I need to sum all it "valor_tempo" put it on the last registry... that is the one with the code "24B3073B-F45F-4E87-9796-55F37847473D" and then set the "valor_tempo" to 0 to the other registry...
Did you get the ideia ??

Registry Configuration Problems ?
Jul 31, 2007Hi,
Quite new to SSIS am currently trying to set up a registry configuration which will hold a connection string which will enable the main SQL configurations for a package to load. I wish to put the registry entry under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE directory or more precisely in a key such as below:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMy CompanyMy ProjectETLConfigDbString
Have set this key up with a default value of the connection string and an associated registry configuration with the above as the value in the regsitry entry box. This configuration is listed as the first configurartion for the package to ensure it gets applied before the SQL configuration loads.
However on load or execute I get a warning of the type
A configuration entry specifies a registry key that is not available. Check the registry to ensure that the key is there.
Are there any known problems with regsitry configurations or am I just missing something obvious here ?
Thanks
Desktop Engine And Concurrentlimit Registry Key
Feb 28, 2003I was looking at the registry key value "ConcurrentLimit" in

One of our SQL Production Server I inherited was installed with this version by mistake. The value for this key was set to 2. Does this mean it only allows 2 concurrent access to the SQL Server??
Thanks...byyu :)
Perlib Registry Corruptions And MSDE
Mar 15, 2004I support many uncontrolled MSDE installs on Win98 machines who are moving to XP. Unfortunately, many of the machine owners are choosing to upgrade their machines to XP, rather than choosing to re-roll.
The problem with this is that the edition of MSDE 2 (SP2) that I'm supporting not only gets it's registry items for the services ripped out, but the perflib registry itself becomes truncated by the MS Windows upgrade. So, no services and the thing can't be uninstalled due to performance monitor rollback issues...
Refer you all to MS KB Article 300956 and the fix for the broken registry which includes expanding system files that contain the default perflib entries referenced by registry. I ran through this process and found that it worked. I was then able to install a named instance of MSDE and remove the broken copy, followed by the instance. From here an install of MSDE went on fine. So what am I posting for?
Adding performance counters into the perflib/009 registry key during the install (which is a condition of my MSDE install and can't be changed) is all well and good, but what about other applications requiring performance counters? Since they have been replaced by the system default performance monitors what kinds of other services, apps or anything may be adversly affected? Not really a db question but directly linked to being able to support MSDE...
Is there anyone out there who's had to utilise this fix before and are there any repercussions that are considered unnaceptable in terms of losing machine functionality???
Basically I need to know if taking performance counters back to the stock system settings is not all that horrible a thing to do to XP client machines, especially as the perflib keys are so corrupted anyway.
ANY THOUGHTS???
(other than formatting and starting again of course!)

RC1 Oledb Provider Missing Registry Key
Jan 10, 2007The RC1 installer (and the previous beta too) doesn't write in the following registry key:
