MSDE package doesn't work on win 98

I created a install shield package on windows 98 using the
MSDE merge modules with vb .net. It works fine on 2000 and
xp but on windows 98 it give an ambiguous error: "Error
1723. Theres a problem with this windows installer
package. A DLL required for this installation to complete
could not be run."
This happenes as soon as I click on the msi file. Or if I
click the setup file then after a couple checks and when
setup tryes running the msi file.
Anyone have any ideas what it could be? Which dlls? Which
merge modules could be missing?
Any help would greatly appreciated. I've lost some hair
over this one.
You probably don't have any version of MDAC installed on the Win98 system.
Make MDAC a dependency of your install and install it first if needed before
going forward.

MSDE over SQL 2005 accidentaly - how to restore SQL 2005?

Hello all!
I write this post on behalf of my colleagues so I don't know a full picture
but this is the situation:
On a Win 2k3 machine with a SQL Server 2005 installed, a colleague
mistakenly installed a software (MBS Navision) with an option for MSDE
installation checked. The result turned out to be non-functional SQL Server
2005 that cannot be reinstalled, removed or repared.
Is there a way to remove the MSDE components and repair or reinstall SQL
Server 2005 without formatting?
Thank youin advance,

Have you checked out http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290991 on how to remove
SQL 2000 manually.
To remove SQL 2005 manually see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909967
although there is a command line option to reinstall (REINSTALLMODE) the
instance see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx

MSDE login problem - Windows

I'm confused.
OS = Win XP Pro
I installed MSDE2000A on a new laptop using mixed security - Windows and
SQL. Everything went fine. At the time my everyday Windows user account wa
s
set up as a Windows (not SQL) administrator, so that I could get some other
software installed, too.
I subsequently changed my Windows user account to be a power user and NOT a
Windows administrator and now I cannot connect to MSDE with that Windows
account. If I switch the account back to Windows adminstrator all is well
with MSDE.
How can I coax MSDE to recognize this user account when it is no longer a
Windows administrator?Add your windows account to the Logins for MSDE. You are
getting in due to the default behavior of SQL Server adding
BUILTIN\Administrators as a login. That would include all
logins that are members of the local admins group.
You can add your login using sp_grantlogin. You can find
more information in books online.

Thanks for the guidance, but it looks like sp_grantlogin requires me to use
a domain name. The laptop is not part of a domain. Is there a workaround
for that?

I logged in to the laptop as Administrator and was automatically logged in
to MSDE. Within MSDE I then ran EXEC sp_grantlogin 'pc_name\duke' and it ra
n
successfully.
However, after logging in as Duke *without Windows administrator rights* I
was still unable to login to MSDE.
I have to be so dense, but what am I missing?

So when you log in as Duke and try to log in to MSDE, what

There are no error messages as such
What is happening is that the SQL Service Mgr in the systray shows an empty
circle. When I open it I have to type in the pc name and select SQL Server
as the service. It then shows that it is already running. When I go into
MSDE Manager (Vale Software's management tool), it shows me logged in as
guest. It also shows the database owner (there's only one user database so
far) as hp_notebook\duke and says that I do not have permisssion to access
that database
If I grant my Windows login Windows Administrator status, MSDE starts fine
and I log in to the MSDE as myself
I don't know enough to provide you more helpful information

that database or can't access the database.
Add your Duke login as a user in the database using
sp_grantdbaccess.
If you need that login to be able to do anything and
everything on the MSDE instance, you can add that login to
the sysadmins server role using:
EXEC sp_addsrvrolemember 'pc_name\duke', 'sysadmin'

Thanks for sticking with me. It appears that things are working correctly
now.
EXEC sp_addsrvrolemember 'pc_name\duke', 'sysadmin' seems to have done the
trick.

msde licence

we get from a company installed at our customer sides an application using
msde in a win 2000 server (terminal) or higher network enwironment. We have a
lot of troubles because this application is going to let our application fail
often , and we get a lot of instability.
Hi rudolph,
Sorry, but dont' see a question here. Why do you think that the MSDE is
causing instability for your app?

|||Hi Greg!
My question is, that we have done out of a pervasive sql based application
an Interface to a small application. This small application is using msde in
a enviroment, we are using, win 2003 or winn200 Server with terminal clients.
The company, who has done the small aplication we are interfacing has
installed at our clients side either msde or MSSQL Server products, depending
on their stability.We have not been asked by them what they are going to
install I thought, that msde is a client product and not a server product. IS
msde a product which can run simitaniosly in our environment?

I'm not Greg (hi Greg :D) but, again, I do not understand the "stability"
problems...
MSDE is one of the editions of SQL Server, limited some way, but shares the
same core functionnalities and features...
MSDE is not a client product as Access, it's a "scaled down" version of a
full blown "enterprise" DBMS, with built-in limitation for database size,
concurrent workloads, and so on...
as regard as your last question,
>IS msde a
> product which can run simitaniosly in our environment?
I should say yes, but your environment is not public , and of course it
all depends on your requirements..

MSDE installation failure

I am trying to install MSDE 2000 rel A onto a machine running Win XP Pro SP2,
Keep getting error failed to configure the server and my error logs show this
message "Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 126 (SQL
Server)." Everything that I have found refers to MDAC issues but SP2
installs the latest MDAC 2.81. I ran component checked and everything matched
when run for 2.8 on XP SP2. The only thing Not Found were odbdbcp.dll
sqlsvr32.dll and sqlsvr32.rll and according to documentation Not Found
just means they were not used in the version selected. Any ideas?
Hi,
I'm not sure, but I heard somewhere that MSDE 2000 relA (or sp3a), cann't be
installed on top of Windows XP SP2.
You must uninstall SP2, install MSDE sp3a and reinstall SP2.
I didn't test it.

|||I have installed MSDE 2000 Rel A on a quite a few machines with XP and
SP2 without such issues. My issue had always been the same - inability
to connect from a remote system. I have finally figure out that by
default MSDE does not install with Network mode turned on. On top of
that, SP 2 blocks all ports, including 1433 used by MSDE, in the
firewall.
So, I have learned to install with the "Mized Mode Authentication"
turned on and also to open up Port 1433.

MSDE Installation Error on Win9x

I am installing MSDE on win 9x machines and am having a problem. The installation aborts and the installshield unattend.iss script rolls back the installation. It seems the failure is in the cnfgsvr.exe program (based on the sqlstp.log file).

the command line that I use is:
msdex86 -s -a -f1 "c:\unattend.iss"

The log files sqlstp.log and cnfgsvr.out are included below.

I have seen some postings similar to this, but never a resolution. Any help would be appreciated...

If I install MSDE, then MDAC it is OK.

Any thoughts??

MSDE Install For 98/SE/ME

I understand for Win 2k and XP installs that a simple re-boot after MSDE
installation will start the MSDE service, but for 98/SE/ME, what is
required?
Does the user have to go to Start Menu and start the service? I do not want
to
complicate the installation routine by having to determine the OS and then
adding an automatic launch if user is on 98 for example. I just want to
know
what to tell the user to do in order to start MSDE.
Paul
P.S. My Setup.bat file is:
setup.exe /settings setup.ini /L*V "c:\EquLog.txt"
and my setup.ini file is:
[Options]
INSTANCENAME=COMPNAME01
SECURITYMODE=SQL
SAPWD="MYPASSWORD"
DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0
This method is working fine on XP boxes.

Win9x platforms do not support Windows NT service control APIs so SQL
Server/MSDE can not be run as service.. it is run as a standard application
instead, so there's no way to "start the relative services at boostratp"...
you can however select, on Service Manager, to "Auto Start" at startup, to
start automatically whenever the computer boots, which will actually put an
entry in the "automatic execution" folder.

whereby if you click it you will have the option of auto-starting ?
I am just looking for a clear user instruction for people installing on
those platforms.

yes, but only for the MSDE instance, not for the SQL Server Agent :-(

assuming you are trying to connect using the standard SQL Server
authentication with the "sa" login and you can't remember it's pasword, you
can login using integrated security (the Windows authentication) using a
local admin member and set the "sa" password to whatever you want via the
system stored procedure sp_password,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...a-pz_5x44.asp,
in the form
EXEC sp_password @.new = 'whatever', @.loginame = 'sa'
as all local admins members are automatically members of the
BUILTIN\Administrators login group in MSDE too, with sysadmins privileges...
connect via oSql.exe providing the -E parameter to specify integrated
security..
c:\..\>osql.exe -E -S(local)\InstanceName
1>EXEC sp_password @.new = 'whatever', @.loginame = 'sa'

MSDE Error on attempting to create new Access 2000 project

Hi folks
I've just installed MSDE on my Win 2k machine and have attempted to
create a new Access 2000 project. When I do (and using a number of
different Login ID/Password combinations), I get this:
Connection failed:
SQLState: '01000'
SQL Server Error: 123
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][Named Pipes]ConnectionOpen
(CreateFile()).
Connection failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 123
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Client unable to establish
connection
can anyone tell me what this means and what I should do. Any help much
appreciated.
thanks
Laurence
Laurence,
See: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;233312
It looks like you do not have named pipes installed with your MSDE, but you
are using it from your client.

Actually, you might find this more helpful (since my first post was to an
old version of MSDE)
