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
PDid you see a new icon in your systray for MSSQLServer?
If you shell out to DOS and type in this, are any results returned?
osql -L
Terri|||Server:
---NONE----
That's what i got! Can you help me how to fix my problem|||Do you have the SQL Server icon in your systray? It looks like a gray CPU and will likely have a red square on it (and when you hover over it it will say Stopped). You need to right-click on the icon and and choose MSSQLServer - Start. Once you've done this, try the osql -L command again.
Terri|||yes i have SQL Server icon on my systray. I tried to open it but the server is empty. so i put my server name but still cannot connect. I right click also and hit start but still the same. when i hover over it it says"Not Connected". It puzzled me!!|||Hi
Thanks for the reply
No there is no SqlServer Icon.
When I do the DOS command (osql -L) it says that is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Where do I go from here
P|||Installation problems are the most insidious and the most difficult to troubleshoot.
Can you search for sqlsp.log on your machine and see if there's anything useful in it?
Terri|||Hi Terri
I just did the search for sqlsp.log and nothing came up.
I have saved the the sql2ksp3.exe to a cd so I can try it all again.
If I do, which directory should I be installing it in.
I am using XP Pro and I VS.net 2003.
Also what services should Istop to make sure nothing stuffs it up there.
I stopped my firewall and anti-virus last time, should I stop IIS and anything else?
Thanks for your help
Pete|||Also, did the event viewer show anything helpful?
Unfortunately I am not an MSDE installation expert. The best advice I can give is to search these forums for MSDE Install and see what has been advised in the past.
Are you following the instructions atMSDE 2000 for Developers Using Visual Studio .NET or something similar (such asCustomizing Desktop Engine Setup.exe)?
And also you should use verbose logging to a text file so you can review any installation problems, by using an additional command line parameter: /L*v C:\MSDEsetup.log
I would use the default directories for installation.
Terri|||Hi Terri
I tried installing the VS.net version of the MSDE without luck.
I did get a log though, but I wouldn't know where to start to look for the problem.
Is it possible to email you the log file to check out the problem.
There was no errors in the event viewer although the Dreamweaver MX Application
server did startup each time I tried to install the MSDE.
Thx
Pete|||It would better benefit you to either post the log itself here or a link to it. As much as I want to help I am not confident that I will be able to pinpoint your problem and you would benefit from other eyes looking at it as well.
Presumably the problematic area will be at the end of the log file.
Terri|||me again
the command i used was
setup.exe /qb+ INSTANCENAME=VSDOTNET DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=1 SAPWD=RRR#$GS1 /L*V c:\msdesetup2.log
The log file is like 3,900KB so it is a little large here is the last bit
Needless to say it would take a while to find where it went wrong

once again thx for your help
I am checking the net for solutions, maybe I shouldn't give it an instance name
Pete|||The 2 things I've been able to locate concerning this are: 1) make sure you have the latest MDAC installed and 2) make sure you have the Server service started (You Cannot Install MSDE 2000 if the Server Service Is Not Running).
And I have also seen the recommendation to look for the string "return value 3" in the log file to further identify where the point of failure is.
Terri|||Me again

Pete|||The key is definitely the "InstallSQLAgentSecurity failed". Check the article on the Server service that I provided in a previous post. And if that doesn't help matters, check out this link:InstallSQLAgentSecurity failed.
You're getting closer, I can feel it :-)
