INSTALLATION PROBLEM
-
WHILE INSTALLING SQL SERVER 2000 PERSONAL EDITION, I GET THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM:
A Service control operation failed for the MSSQL Server service: 267 The directory name is invalid
-
You should have a file called sqlstp.log in your C:\Windows or C:\WinNT directory. What are the last 10 lines or so of that file? Be sure to remove anything that might be sensitive to your organization.

thanks
i did remove the sqlstp log file from c/windows
i am still getting the same error message while installing sql server. any other suggestion
-
The sqlstp.log file is the log file for the installation. It tells you what the installation program is attempting, what completed successfully and what failed. Therefore, don't delete it. Copy the last ten or so lines and paste them in this forum.

What Operating System are you attempting this installation on?
I'll bet it is XP Home, if so you will need XP Pro.

ITS XP PRO
-
Are you installing with a user account that has administrative rights over the computer?
