My SQL Server 2005 upgrade failed with errors. That is all it said, and stopped the upgrade process.
When I try to start the install/upgrade again....it wont do the database server?
Anyone know any way to get it to upgrade my SQL Server 2000, without uninstalling SQL2k and then doing a full install of 2005?
Thanks in Advance

There is nothing in the SQL Server error log. Is there an upgrade log?

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG

All
Thanks for your posts. The error log helped.
The problem, as far as I can tell, is that a developer version of SQL Server 2000 will not upgrade. These Servers were all installed before I came here and were installed using the developer version.
The solution has been to install standard edition and move the databases over using either backup/recover or offline/attach.
Thanks for your help.
