I am an old hand at RDBMS but have been using SQL Server for only 1 year. I have a local install of 2005 Developer Edition, and also access a number of 2000 and 2005 instances on remote and network servers. OK, so on 3/16 (after installing the 3/15 Windows Security Updates), I began getting this error when invoking any 2005 DB under Object Explorer in Management Studio "SQLWB - SQL Server Management Studio has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." Very helpful. So I ran a debug and got some unhandled exception errors:

After some poking around, my DBA told me that we had upgraded the servers for our team to SP1, and I should install that, because the file being read did not 'match up' with the commands. But when I did so I got the warning:
- Edition Change Check (Warning)
Messages
Edition Change Check
To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter.
I researched this information, but it didn't really apply to my situation. So I selected 'CONTINUE' and everything went downhill from there. The install downloaded the SP1 setup support files (which by the way "cannot be removed") and then aborted. I poked around some more and decided it would be easiest to Uninstall and Reinstall the Dev Edition from the DVD and then apply the SP. The uninstall went fine until it got to the tools (which apparently were my real problem to start with). When I attempt to uninstall the tools, I get the following message:
"Error reading from file C:WindowsassemblyGAC_MSILMicrosoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum9.0.242.0__89845dcd8080cc91Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum.dll
Verify that this file exists and that you can access it"
This message is presented with Retry and Cancel options. The file does NOT exist, so Retry is not useful and cancel rolls back the entire uninstall.
In this part SP1/half uninstalled 2005 environment I am stuck like chuck. I have searched for this dll online and on other folders of my hard drive to no avail. I have also dug through these forums until my eyes are crossed.

I currently have a SQL database that I am having a table join problem with. I'm sure the solution to this is obvious to most people but whatever it is, I'm blind to it.
I have two tables, one called lvl1 and another called lvl2. Rows that are in the lvl1 table can have a relation to each other with a column called parent and there is an id column as well. So if I have a row with an id of 1 and it has 3 child rows, all 3 children have their parent attribute set to "1".
lvl2 has the same properties, except it has a column called lvl1_id which allows it to relate to lvl1 rows. So if a lvl1 row with an ID of 1 has a child in lvl2, the lvl2 row will have a lvl1_id attribute set to "1".
What I am TRYING to do is select all rows in lvl1 with parent = 1 AND all rows in lvl2 with lvl1_id = 1.
This is what my query currently looks like:
SELECT lvl1.*, lvl2.* FROM lvl1 INNER JOIN lvl2 ON lvl1.id = lvl2.id WHERE lvl1.parent = '1' OR lvl2.lvl1_id = '1';
This gets the correct lvl1 rows but instead of picking up the correct lvl2 rows, it gives me the lvl1 rows with the same id from the lvl2 rows that it found.
I've played around with the join, swapping lvl1 and lvl2 pretty much everywhere I can but without much luck.
Or am I just going about this all the wrong way?
I've been using databases for a few years now but I've always hated table joins

I have been following this document to uninstall SQL 2005 for a virtual server: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909967 and when following this step: start /wait msiexec /x GUID /l*v c:sql_uninstall.log for the SQL Server 2005 GUID I get the following error: 'This installer package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it'.
There also is not a sql_uninstall.log file on the server. All other components have uninstalled successfully using Add/Remove Programmes apart from the database engine which gets the below error: 'The set up has encountered an unexpected error while setting internal properties. The error is: Fatal error during installation.'
Hi,I’m having a problem uninstalling SQL Server 2005. I went into add/remove programs,clicked on each of the entries for all of the associated services to remove them,then removed SQL Server 2005, rebooted, and the tasks are still listed in services.There are no entries in add/remove programs.I’m removing SQL Server in order to install Visual Studio first - I’ve still gota problem with the “Package Load Failure” that I posted about last week:http://forums.asp.net/thread/1402873.aspxCan anyone give me a clue as to how I can completely remove SQL Server?I’m running Win 2k SP4.Thanks!
Hi all,Afetr a bad install of sql server 2005 which failed due to WMI problem; something that seems unfixable save a reinstall of windows.I am now left with a part installion of sql server 2005. From add/remove programs clicking 'remove' activates nothing as does change. However the files are there in program files.At start up I get multiple fatal errors etc.Does anyone know how I can unistall SQL server 2005 completely - perhaps from the command line?Or..how could I stop SQL server from trying to start at start up?All help most appreciated.TFM
I recently re-built my entire system from ground up (new hard drives, OS, etc). I now have the problem of SQL 2005 installed partially, but no way to get the management tools installed. I get an "already installed message when I try". I've never encounted this before on any other SQL install.
Sequence of events. I installed VS 2005 Pro first, then followed by SQL 2005. Somewhere this install didn't work, and I was left with the MS installed thinking I suceeded, yet none of the functions of SQL were worked or more importantly accessable.
I tried to re-install after using the ADD/Remove App from the control panel (which was sucessfull). SQL thought it was still installed. So I uninstalled VS 2005 as well, and deleted any programs in the SQL directory. Then I checked ADD/Remove programs and nothing was showing. The re-install still did not work. My guess is that the registry is still loaded with now useless entries.
Is there any solution left that does not require me to hand delete any SQL registry entries, since that is always a great way to completely kill my system.
I uninstalled SQL Server 2005 through "Add or Remove Programs". Apparently I did something wrong. The files are gone, but when I try to reinstall, the installer says SQL Server already exists, and won't install. When I go to the Configuration Manager, it shows all the components, but not of the services are started - or will start. How do I clean this up without wiping my drive and reinstalling my OS?
I'm having trouble removing SSRS from a Win 2003 x64 Server. I have searched the forums here and tried different suggestions but to no avail. The problem: I go to Add/Remove Programs and choose to change SQL Server, I select the 3-4 options required to remove Reporting Services and when I get to the screen that has the sub-heading 'The selected components are being configured' nothing happens. I just get a Next button but no other feedback whatsoever and SSRS still resides on the server.
It might be worth mentioning that during the change installation wizard I get a warning that 64 bit SSRS cannot be run when ASP.NET is running in 32 bit mode. This is in fact the reason I am uninstalling SSRS, but I do not know if this has any bearing on being able to remove SSRS.
I'm trying to uninstall sql 2005 CTP, so that I can install the standard version... but I keep on getting a whole range of errors.... I can't uninstall the ctp, and I can't upgrade with the standard version...
This is the errorcode I got

If I try to uninstall my SQL Server 2005 I nead to have instaled SqlSupport.msi in my list programs and I don't have it. Then I found it in a folder "...ServersSetup" but it dosen't work. I can't install that program and if it's already instaled I can't see it in my list programs. What can I do?
I have been trying to uninstall SQL Server (Enterprise Edition) from one of our development boxes and the programs bombs out. When I looked in the log file, I see the following error message which is useless needless to say. Has anyone come across this issue? How did you resolve it? Thanks in Advance.
I am trying to uninstall Sql Server 2005 Beta in order to upgrade to the Sql Server 2005 Enterprise Edition but without success.
Here is what I have already done:
I had VS 2005 2.0 Beta and Sql Server 2005 Beta installed. I wanted to upgrade to the Professional Editions so I uninstalled VS 2005 2.0 Beta and Sql Server 2005 Beta from Add/ Remove programs.
I have successfully installed VS 2005 Professional Edition but when I try to install Sql Server 2005 it gives me an error saying that SQL Server 2005 has detected incompatible components from beta versions of Visual Studio, .NET Framework, or SQL Server 2005.
I have just migrated from XP Professional to Windows Vista Home Premium using Laplink€™s PCMover. PCMover gives no choice but moving everything to the new PC. I tried to uninstall everything related to SQL 2005, but whenever I try to install SQL 2005 Standard€™s database engine or analysis service, I get an error saying there is already an instance.
I tried the following command: "%ProgramFiles%Microsoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapARPWrapper.exe /Remove
I also tried: start /wait msiexec /x {GUID} /l*v c:sql_uninstall.log
Is there anyway to completely uninstall everything of SQL 2005 in my situation? Thanks in advance!
I am currenltly working on a scripted install of SQL 2005 Express SP2 with Cumulative update 5 and am experiencing some very frustrating problems.
I need to provide the ability to script the install and script the deinstall, both of which are fine. However..
When i try to uninstall SQL from the script (or manually from add/remove programs) i get the following error
The installer has encountered an unexpected error. The error code is 2709. The specified Component name ('SxSComp.42B34EA79EE84812AF478E608EA6C2F8') not found in Component table.
The error occurs when the SQL 2005 uninstaller attempts to uninstall the workstation components, the result is a partial uninstall of SQL 2005 which becomes very difficult to uninstall.
Would appreciate any assistance anyone could provide me.
I had to do a system restore to solve some other issues now my SQL Server 2005 doesnt work (SQL Server 2000 on the same machine [diffrent instance] does). I have tried to uninstall with add/remove programs but the instance doesnt appear there. I have tried to use the 'ARPWrapper.exe /Remove' command as described in KB909967 wich also fails. I have also tried to reinstall with no sucess. I also tried uninstalling SQL2000 and removing as many references as I could find, again now joy.
Is there a script somewhere to remove everything (although I would like to try and keep the SQL2000 instance)?
I am facing a serious problem with the unproper uninstall. I have installed MSSQL 2005 Enterprise and created an Active Directory at the server. I have removed the AD and wanted to uninstall SQL 2005.
I was not able to uninstall it fully. I have reinstalled it several times, just to tryying to remove the registry entries.
Is there a solution / tool or a document describing, how I can fully manually remove MS SQL 2005 from a server?
My SQL Server 2005 Beta has expired and I want to unistall it. When I try, it tells me I need to have .NET framework 2.0 before I can run setup. I do have .NET 2.0. And I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and I still get the error from SQL Server when I try to unsintall. This error is pissing me off and this stupid beta is taking up almost a gig of space. HELP.

I want to install and use instance SQLExpress, and I cannot remove it, but it will not start, and trying to reinstall it fails.
It was simple under MSDE 2000, no2 it seems to be impossible.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Honestly, I would like to uninstall SQL Express 2005 completely (except the BCM instant), and start over, but canot find a way to do this. SQL Express is a mess, I have spent days trying to resolve this, and am still where I started. Thanks, bob
Long story short: Installed SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition along with Visual Studio 2005. Everything worked as it should.
Then there was a problem installing .NET Framework 2.0 Security Update. Fixed that by uninstall and reinstall of .NET Framework 2.0.
Now SQL Server does not work. So I figured uninstall/reinstall. Only problem is that it WILL NOT uninstall. I have tried to uninstall manually per KB article (9009967). That doesn't work either.
I have a failed sql cluster setup on Windows 2003 OS cluster. sql will not uninstall on node 1 because it says the group name was not specified in the template.ini file for the cluster. The OS cluster nodes have been evicted from the cluster. The OS cluster is no longer available to provide a group name for.
SQl uninstall process process is failing because of the error mentioned above.
I want to completely , uninstall SQL server from both nodes, clean up Windows Server and install just a default instance of SQL server on just one of the machines, The cluster can wait.
This is getting extremely annoying. I cannot unistall another instance of SQL Server Express 2005.
I have had three different servers with the separate installs of SQL Server Express 2005. I remove the product (Backup Exec, Dell IT Assistant, Microsoft System Center 2007). I uninstall the third-party product and they leave behind SQL Server Express 2005. For what idiotic reason I do not know. Then I try and remove SQL Server Express 2005 and for the third straight time it fails.

Does anyone know how to actually remove SQL Server Express 2005? This is pathetic.
I'm trying to perform a silent install/uninstall of SQL Server 2005 Express. I manage to install silently, but when trying to uninstall with the following command line:
there is one item left behind - "Microsoft SQL Server Native Client"
Does anyone know how to uninstall this as well?
Also, if MSXML 6.0 is already installed when installing SQL Server 2005 Express, when performing an uninstall with the above command line, MSXML 6.0 is also uninstalled, which may not be the desired outcome.
Hi, we have 2 servers (Windows 2003 R2) in a cluster. All clustering requirements have been setup, so the next step is to install the SQL 2005 cluster.
However, during installation, we encounter problem. Some of the services failed to install. Afterwards, we tried to re-install, but we encounter unexpected error. Then we tried to uninstall, we also encounter unexpected error.
We already tried to follow KB 909967. Using ARPWrapper gives the same error as the one from Add-Remove Program, with a pop-up:
There was an unexpected failure during the setup wizard. You may review the setup logs and/or click the help button for more information.
So, we go to the "If you experience problem" section, where we try to uninstall the items one by one. The first one we found is Analysis Services, and when we try to uninstall it, we encounter this problem:
Error 29527. The setup has encountered an unexpected error in datastore. The action is RestoreSetupParams.

So, now we are stuck. We can not re-install because the uninstallation step fails. Really need your help.
