MSDE Install Problem

Hello,

I have just purchased a new CPU and when I attempt to install MSDE the
process nears the end and stops, and removes the installed files. If anyonr
has an idea on a correction let me know.

ThanksHi Daro,

Here's what works for me, assuming you want windows and sql server authentication -

setup.exe DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 SAPWD="Your Password" SECURITYMODE=SQL

Good luck!

I tried your work around but with no luck...I'll keep plugging away at
it.

Thanks again.

MSDE Install Failure

On a Win2Ksp3 server I am trying to install MSDE. However everytome the
installation nears the end and then rolls back. All I get in the log is:
Event Type:Information
Event Source:MsiInstaller
Event Category:None
Event ID:11708
Date:04/05/2004
Time:22:30:20
User:N/A
Computer:ORASERVER1
Description:
Product: Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine -- Installation operation
failed.
This came about after uninstalling BackupExec9.0 and attemtping a install of
BackupExec9.1 which also fails because it cannot install MSDE. Any ideas, I
cannot find much in Knowledgebase.
TIA

I read somebody's post on here today about how this went away if they
installed SP4.
WTH
|||was happening to me on a particular machine.
enabling file sharing service fixed it.
check msde dependencies to see if you have them all on your machine ?
