I am trying to a command line installation of SQL 2005 Workstation for SCE 2007. I want to be able to but my file structure as follows
c:\Everything except for below.
d:\SQLData - Only .mdf files.
e:\SQLLogs - Only .ldf files.
I created a sql.ini file
[Options]
USERNAME=Administrator
COMPANYNAME=Company Name
INSTALLSQLDIR="D:\Services\Microsoft SQL Server\"
INSTALLSQLDATADIR=E:\SQLDATA\
ADDLOCAL=ALL
INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER
But that doesn't seem to work. Am I doing something wring here? I am a newbie at this so please be gentle......
Thanks.

What do you mean by "doesn't seem to work"?
You can also try to install using the graphical interface - it is easier there to change the file locations.

It installs the BAckup, DATA, Jobs, Log and repldata on the E:\ drive. Thats not where I want to put it.
As a side not, yes if you use the GUI, you can tell it where to install, however you cant specify specific functions where to install, thats why you have to use the command line tools. Thanks.
