Hi Sir,
I had bought a ASP.net book, and the book have attach with a
“Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine” CD installer, but when I install it pop out the below message:-
- A strong SA password is request for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to support the same. Refer to readme for more detail. Setup will now exit.
But I had check the whole book and CD, also cant find any ‘SA password’. Can sir/ anybody teach me how to install the “SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine”, for my final project. Thank you!
Regards,
Mike

Copy the install directory for MSDE to the local hard drive. Edit the setup.ini file in this directory to include (under "[Options"]):
SAPWD = {type 'sa' password here}
Save the setup.ini file and try running setup.exe again.
For more info, check out ReadMe file in the install directory.
ALSO - ONE IMPORTANT NOTE: After MSDE is successfully installed, be sure to remove the "sa" password from the setup.ini file so that there is not a local copy of the sa password sitting on your server.
Hope that helps.
