Unable To Install Sql Server Express After Removing The Previous Installation
Mar 12, 2007
I installed sql server express 1st time successfully. But later I found that there's no solution explorer(there's no item under file-new called Project). To reinstall, I removed all the components completely,including engine,msee,bol,sampledb. But could not install the engine again. I've downloaded the installation files several times and tried both sqlexpr32.exe and sqlexpr_adv.exe. The same error log:

our goal is to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1. So far we used to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition which resulted in the Version 9.00.1399 (basic run time machine).
We noticed that SP1 is almost the same sice as the basic run time machine. Still, we then we applied SP1. during the installation, at the window "Existing Components", the "SQL Server Database Services 9.00.1399.06 is listed with a check box. When I tick the box, the installation can continue. SP1 resulted in the version 9.00.2047. (checked on sqlservr.exe).
my question: can we install directly SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1 without any previous SQL Server installation at all to save installation time (and errors)?
I do now that the service packs are considered "cumulative", so SP2 includes SP1, but I do not know of SP1 includes the basice runtime machine.
For the past several weeks, I have been trying to install SQL Server 2005 on a Win XP SP2 PC. Regardless of the options I choose (SQL Engine + Client Tools, Client Tools only, etc.) when the installation gets to the end of the Client Tools setup and the setup status displays "Removing Backup Files", my PC appears to hang.
For a period of time, there is a fair amount of HD activity which gives me the impression that files are in fact being deleted, but then there is no HD activity and the installation appears to hang. Finally I give up and kill the setup process and reboot.
After reboot, it appears that the client tools have been installed (the icons appear and I can open the Management Studio, but when I try to connect to an existing instance of SQL, that hangs. This occurs for either Windows or SQL authentication.
Has anyone experienced this behavior and determined the root cause? What EXACTLY is happening during the "Removing Backup Files" phase of the installation?
I'm trying to upgrade my management studio to the full version, I uninstalled Express edition and started the install for the full version, but I get an error stating "you cannot install this component because it is already installed". I had a word with one of the guys in the office and he said the only way he's ever been able to get round this is by flattening the entire PC and starting again. Obviously I want to avoid that!
I had some issues on my server and had to uninstall .Net Framework 2.0, SQL Server 2005 Express, and SQL Express Toolkit. I installed SQL Server 2005 Express and it seemed to be ok.
Then my problems all started when I tried to install SQL Express Toolkit because I needed to install DTS Wizard again, and it errors out and wouldn't let me install it. So I uninstalled everything that's listed above again.
I then tried to install SQL Server 2005 Express again, and on the second from last screen, while its listing all the components and configuring them, I get the following error as it's configuring the last component... which was the SQL Server Database Services.
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup ----------------------------------------------------------- The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL Server Books Online topics, "How to: View SQL Server 2005 Setup Log Files" and "Starting SQL Server Manually."
I tried to re-install the SQL Server Express another 7 times wth no luck.
If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.
I am unable to install Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007. I sought help in the BCM forum, but the developer who I spoke with came to the conclusion that it is a SQL Server Express problem that I am experiencing, and so he recommended that I come here for help.
I am running on Vista Ultimate.
Every attempt I have made to install BCM (and later SQL Express Server 2005 separately, see below) has failed at the same point, with the same error message:
"SQL Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'sa'.
Today I attempted to install SQL Express Server SP2 separately on its own, the idea being that if this worked, then I might be able to install BCM on top of it. I attempted the SQL EE SP2 installation after uninstalling all remnants of previous installations to the best of my ablity. The SP2 installation failed at the same point, and had the same appearance, as I saw in all prior attempts. (The installer reported no errors or warnings in its system checks prior to beginning the actual install.)
Here is the summary log from this trial:

When I was installing vs.net 2008, I chose to install sql server express. But after I installed it, I found I could only see the configuration tools of sql server, but I couldn't find the sql server express service. When I ran the surface area configuration for services and connections, I msgbox came out and told me "No sql server 2005 components were found on the specified computer.....". Why? Thanks.

Any help would be appreciated in getting this service pack installed.
I have been trying to install BCM 07 and Accounting Pro 07 for a couple days now with the same SQL Server Express eroor. I've also attempted to install SQL Express sp2 alone to no avail either. Here is the log file from my last BCM install attempt. Any advise would be GREAT! I have already tried changing my PC name to CHARLIE which did not resolve it either. Thanks for the help! Charlie

I have no idea what the error is or how to fix it; I've enountered a number of postings related to install errors but none match exactly.
I do have the full log. Thanks in advance for any/all help!
Past one week I have been struggling to install SQL server express edition on my laptop which is preinstalled with Vista Basic. After it commences installation, it says the .net 2.0 on the system in corrupted.
Please let me know how to proceed ASAP... i have a project due for submission this week!
I have tried to install SQL Server 2005 Express several times with no success. I have followed the instructions to remove all SQL files on the Programs menu. Then, when I attempt to install it again, it only goes as far as the database where it stops and gives the error message: SQL Server cannot write system databases to C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData because it contains files from a previous installation. To continue, move the databases from the specified folder, or specify a different installation folder. Then run SQL Server Setup again.
It doesn't give options and I can only abort the installation.
Does anyone have a remedy for a technologically challenged person?

I have been unable to install SQL Express 2005 Server on my Windows 2003 Server (with SP2 installed). I keep getting an error message saying that Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 is not installed.
Click here for image
So, I downloaded Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 v2 (WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe) but whenever I try to install it I get an error message saying that "the Service Pack version of this system is newer than the update you are applying" and that there is no need to install the update and it stops there.
Click here for image
Is there a workaround to this? How can I get Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 installed? I tried going to the Windows Update site, I already have everything installed and I even started the Windows Installer service manually. Has anyone else experienced this?
How can I get SQL Server 2005 Express installed if not how can I install SQL Server 2000 on tihs machine?

I have full version of SQL server 2005 installed on my machine.
I am now also trying to install express edition as well. Though the database engine got installed, the managment studio *express* does not get installed as the management studio of full version is already installed. Can I use the management studio of full version to access this express edition database engine. If so how ?
I have a copy of Visual studio 2008, SQL Express advanced 2005 sp2 and i want to install SQL Express 2005 toolkit 2005.
I have run the install several times and each time the installer thinks i've already installed the software and refers me back to add/remove to modify the install.
According to my registry i have installed the toolkit ..90/tools/setup/editiontype ( = Express Edition Toolkit) but the Business Intelligence Development Studio options haven't installed along with all the other options offered under the toolkit sp2, as i can't see them as an option to select from the start/all programs/microsoft sql server 2005.
Also for some reason there is no options to uninstall the toolkit, which again means i have no way of reinstalling the software.

Cool place! Has anyone deployed SQL Express silently using one click and an attached a smart client DB from within the app ... would love to see some of the best practices or horror stories! Just kidding... :) I'm about to deploy a smart client using SQL Express and could use some tips from someone who has been there.
I have a virtual machine that previously had SQL Server 2005 installed. Since I changed the computer name, I have to reinstall SQL. I removed all the SQL components and am trying to reinstall the database and reporting components. The installation is failing on the "Removing temporary files" step. According to the setup progress screen, the following components have been installed:
OWC11
SQL Server Bakcward-Compatibility Files
SQL Server Database Services
Reporting Services
Visual Studio Integrated Development
SQL Server Books Online
SQLXML4
Workstation Components, Books Online - this step is still in "configuring components" status.
The virtual machine is running Windows 2003 Server SP1 with all current patches, using just under 2 GB of memory (1920 MB of RAM), the host is Windows XP SP2 with all current patches, with 4 GB of memory.
I had no problem doing this procedure on a different virtual machine, so I'm not sure what the problem is here.
I installed SQL Server Express trail for 3 times each with new instance. Now I came to know that I need to have a default instance. I un-installed the SQL Server Express and tried to install it again. It still says I have installed instances and if I select default instance the option buttons are un-checked and disabled. I tried to delete all the folders related to the SQL Server installationa dn tried but still I see the same thing. Please help me in istalling the default instance.
I seem to have gotten myself between a rock and a hard place. I have tried everything I know and am sending this post as a last resort before wiping my computer drive and re-installing everything. This would not be the end of the world. All the software on my computer is registered and legal and all that, but getting things set up again is not something I look forward to. Here's the situation ..... I have been trying out SQL Server 2005 Express on a test server and have worked out all kinds of good things, including working remotely, over our network, from my computer. We decided to get the full version (SQL Server 2005 Standard) before going any further so that I could have all the cool tools and stuff. We got the full version installed on a new server
and I have been working on it using SQL Server Management Studio Express to get things started. Yesterday I decided I was ready to start going thru the tutorials for SSIS and SSAS, so I uninstalled the Express version of Management Studio and all other segments of Express that were on my local computer, got out the Standard version CDs and installed the workgroups segment on my computer. After several false-starts (re having to load things like IIS and reload .NET framework and then restart the SQL Server installation) I thought I finally made it all the way thru. During this last time thru a message popped up about not enough virtual memory, but the installation continued - so I left it going. When the "finish" screen came up and I clicked "finish", I first went to Surface Config and set things up as I had them before, then tried going to Managment Studio, but it was not in the programs list. I went back to Config. Manager and tried to see if something just needed to be turned on, or whatever, and started getting application failure errors, with a message to look at the install log. In that log there is a message about installation failure due to memory shortage. I should not be getting this problem, as far as I can tell. My hard drive has 24 gigs free and I have 1 gig of ram. In any case, I tried un-installing (thru add/remove programs) and when I do I get a failure error there too. Finally, I tried running the install again, figuring - as I have experienced on other software - that sometimes the second time thru straightens things out. No such luck, and another try at un-install gave the same results. I realize I am being somewhat vague about the error messages. I can get them if I need to, but I thought I would just toss this situation out to you all first, since it may not matter exactly what the failure messages are! Any suggestions?

i have a DVD set of Visual Studio 2005 Professional Addition. I copy all of its components on my hard disk and then start downloading Visual Studio 2005 Professional Addition from the folder that i have copied on my hard disk. The installation process installs every think visual studio, .net framework 2.0, parser etc but when it reached to insatll SQL Server 2005 , it displays an error "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 setup has encountered an error and will end" and The following components falied to install " Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition x86". I then uninstall the whole visual studio using autorun and then reinstall it, but the problem remain there. Then i search this issue on net and i found an article according to which, i uninstall visual studio again but now this time i manually uninstall the components by folowing the sequence which is given in the that article. Then i delete all the folders and files from the temp folder and again install the visual studio but the problem still exists. I dun know why it is not installing. Please, if anybody knows the solution, reply me soon.
I€™m unable to install SQL Server 2005 on Win XP Professional 2002 SP2. I tried both with SQL Enterprise and Express editions nothing works. It seems to be installed but I can not find the management studio. Some one PLZZZZZZZZ suggest what to do in order to get it installed.
I get to the point of starting the services and receive the following message after about 4 minutes of trying to start. I tried in Mixed Mode and Windows Authentication Mode. Message:

I have been trying to install SQL Server 2005 developer version on my second laptop IBM Thinkpad Windows XP PRO, for the first time. All other components installed successfully except the database. I 've tried selecting the named instance and default instance it didn't make any difference. I have a Admin role on the laptop and as a service id I selected my user id. password and domain. I am running the setup behind my company's firewall.
The error in the log is :

I have tried to attach the log but I think it is too big. I cannot post this message.
