Error installing SQL Server Database Engine Services Instance Features o

  • Hello SSC community,

    (now i see that i failed the headline, it should be:)

    SQL Server 2014 Installation failed with failures/The System cannot find the specific Path

    since 3 days i setup my developement maschine with a fresh win7/64 SP1 with SQL Server 2014 Enterprise

    When i had done the (felt 5000) necessary MS updates and mashine restarts) after 2 days, i started the MS SQL Server Setup

    After passing the System Check without errors, the setup run and ends with failures

    it allways ends like this:

    Feature: Database Engine Services

    Status: Failed: see logs for details

    Reason for failure: An error occurred during the setup process of the feature.

    Next Step: Use the following information to resolve the error, uninstall this feature, and then run the setup process again.

    Component name: SQL Server Database Engine Services Instance Features

    Component error code: 0x80004005

    Error description: The System cannot find the specific Path (Translation from German: "Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden")

    Complete with failures: screenshot

    The database engine wasn’t even able to start when i tried manually (the SQL service sqlservr.exe timed out)

    The summary.txt says:

    Next step for SQLEngine: Uninstall this feature, and then run the setup process again.

    I did, but the result was the same.

    It sounds crazy, but the setup of SQL Server 2008, 2012 and 2014 worked perfect with my old messy windows 7 (before setup a clean system)

    Do you guys know what the problem is?

  • Hey,

    What do the errors in your Application log say?

    You mention SQL is struggling to find a path specified?

    Where did you want tempdb to be created and are the permissions to that folder sufficient?

  • What version of SQL server are you installing, is it an RTM installer?

    At what point during the install do you get the error?

  • Hello Guys,

    thanks for your replys

    It is SQL Server 2014 as a Enterprise version which i install with the gotten product key,

    (Is there a place in the setup files where i can grabb more infos about the Version?)

    The last setup brought me the installation but the engibe wont start

    After installation i got this message in the error log

    Feature: Database Engine Services

    Status: Failed: see logs for details

    Reason for failure: An error occurred during the setup process of the feature.

    Next Step: Use the following information to resolve the error, uninstall this feature, and then run the setup process again.

    Component name: SQL Server Database Engine Services Instance Features

    Component error code: 0x80004005

    Error description: Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden <-- this is the message about the path

  • what's in the log produced by setup?

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    "Ya can't make an omelette without breaking just a few eggs" 😉

  • Do you ask the Details.txt (what is a very large text) ?

    (simply copy and paste here 🙂

  • when setup fails it gives you the path and name of the log file 😉
