Hello
I finally managed to install MSDE after more than 20 attempts. The strange
thing is, there was no error during the installation, but there is no
instance name folder.
I used this command to install: setup.exe instancename="name" blanksapwd=1
securitymode=sql /L*v C:\MSDE_setup.log targetdir="c:\msde\"
There is even no C:\msde folder, the instancename isn't mentioned in the
registry, but my log file says that the installation operation was completed
successfully. This means also that my dropdown lists in the sql server
service manger are empty, because it can't find back the services that are
needed.
What did I do wrong? I hope that anyone can help me

have a look at \program files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL$name
as /L*v parameter expects it's value enclosed in "...", perhaps TARGETDIR
has not been honored..
just a guess...
