Installation issues

  • Hello!!!

    I had sql server 2005 installed on a machine. Some things went wrong with sql like i posted in another topic. DB´s became blocked among other things. I have the error log to check it out. Now when i want to reinstall the following appears.

    "Setup error SQL Server to modify security permissions in space

    wmi name \ \. \ root \ microsoft \ sqlserver \ serverevents \ mssqlserver. To continue,

    Verify that the domain account and lso that runs the Setup

    sql server, which account for the installation has administrator privileges and that the space

    wmi name \ \. \ root \ microsoft \ sqlserver \ serverevents \ mssqlserver exist on the destination drive."

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • From the error message it looks like you don't have sufficient privileges on the box where you are trying to install SQL Server.

    Make sure you have administrator permissions on the computer where SQL Server will be installed. If you install SQL Server from a remote share, you must use a domain account that has read and execute permissions on the remote share. To create a failover cluster, you must be a local administrator with permissions to logon as a service, and to act as part of the operating system on all nodes of the virtual server.

    The installation is running on a administrator account.

    thanks.
