SQL Server 2008 Express Setup Issue SKU (Network Steve Forum)

SQL Server 2008 Express Setup Issue SKU

Hi,

a configuration file driven setup worked on roughly 30 machines without problems.

However, on one certain machine (which is costumer owned in Saud Arabia) the installation seems to

be blocked at an early stage. Logfiles reporting something about "Invalid edition ... SKU", but it not clear for me

what the problem is.

The Summary.txt is shown here, below this I will paste Details.txt (the bottom part which contains the error portion).

Thanks for help in advance!

Peter

Hi,

a configuration file driven setup worked on roughly 30 machines without problems.

However, on one certain machine (which is costumer owned in Saud Arabia) the installation seems to

be blocked at an early stage. Logfiles reporting something about "Invalid edition ... SKU", but it not clear for me

what the problem is.

The Summary.txt is shown here, below this I will paste Details.txt (the bottom part which contains the error portion).

Thanks for help in advance!

Hello,

Did you notice that you are trying to install an instance with the GESTRAVKP4030 name, but there is an instance already installed on that computer with that instance name?

Hope this helps.

Hi,

a configuration file driven setup worked on roughly 30 machines without problems.
However, on one certain machine (which is costumer owned in Saudi Arabia) the installation seems to
be blocked at an early stage. Logfiles reporting something about "SKU", but this makes not clear for me
what the problem is.

The Summary.txt is pasted, below this Details.txt is placed (the bottom part which contains the error portion).

Thanks for help in advance!

Hello Shanky,

It seems to be accidental. The user gets an error message and he thinks his post will not appear in the forum.

I have been in similar situation on Connect Web site, every time I perform a refresh on the Web page my posts get duplicated.

Hope this helps.

I wonder about this, because I checked this via services panel (no such service)

and physically on HD store. May be there is an orphaned entry in the

registry from a previous (and failed) installation...

Thanks for help.

Hello,

Please manually uninstall using the following procedure::

Uninstall all SQL Server components you can using Control Panel -> Programs and Features

Backup the registry.

Delete the following keys in regedit:

--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server

--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and delete all the sub-keys referencing SQL Server.

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services and delete all the keys referencing SQL Server.

Rename all the SQL Server folders in the computer like

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server and subfolders.

Hope this helps.

Your experiences are quite real Alberto, So i believe you :) .My comments were just to make sure forum remains clean.

I suppose it would be good idea to merge this thread with original one.

Thanks

Hello Alberto,

The customer was able to uninstall the SQL Server instance via Control Panel,

but a new installation failed again due to missing authorization (according to

the displayed message). Maybe this is the root issue what can be fixed

by the installation stuff.

Best regards

Peter

Hello,

today the administration stuff have uninstalled all SQL Server instances properly regarding to your

posting (I could check this in place). There were no registry entries left, SQL Server directories were

renamed/moved.

However, the installation failed again, but it seems at a different position late in the installation process. Is there possibly some kind of security issue?

Below the portion of Details.txt which hopely contains the error description.

The stuff is sure that he is logged on as administrator.

The message "Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation" was also

shown via MessageBox.

Thanks and best regards.

Peter

I think problem is with your windows account.Please create a new windows account give it a admin privileges .

Please run SQL server as following.Login into windows with newly created Windows account.And go to setup.exe file RK on the file and select run as administrator.

Please see below link

Please make sure again that previous failed installation is removed

January 13th, 2014 6:32pm

SUCSESS! These steps were applied:

-- Create a new local Admin account

-- Create a new Installation folder C:\install i.e. with this account

-- Copy the installation files to this folder

-- Run the installation

Many Thanks!
