the install goes well, but when i restart the computer the sqlService manager icon appears blank, or red,
When i double click on the icon the SQL Server service manager appears but it can not access any instance running on my computer(it doesn't even find anything) by default the server and services comboboxes are empty and when i open those comboboxes they stay empty :(
I also can not use OSQL to log into the server, all i get is the following error: [TCP/IP sockets] specified sql server not found OS Error 120 (null)
I tried to do the following net start mssql$matrix
but it would just tell me that it has not service by that name.. even though i know it was installed with that instance name,
Inside the mssql$[someInstance] folder in my progfiles\sql server directory i read the error log and it says: SQL Server is terminating due to stop request from service control manager
What am i supposed to do now? DId anyone get this sort of trouble on a windows 98 SE machine?
ThanksCan you right click on the icon, and then from there select Start?
MSDE does work on Win98 SE.|||yes, it does install MSDE
but when i open up the sql manager app and try to start it manually i get this sweet error:
50 - Network request is not supported occured while performing this service operation on the MSSQLServer service
The network request is not supported.
God i've been spending hours on this looking for answer on the internet and nothing so far.|||well i just got another test PC out and this time it installed alright on the same type of Win98 machine. Weird.
But I still have a small problem inside OSQL I try to run the attach db statement
And I get this error message:
Msg 5172
Level 16
State 15
Server pc
Line 1
Header file for (filename) is not a valid database file header. The pageAudit property is incorrect.
What am i doing wrong? the statement is right...
