Hi ,
It's 3 days I'm trying to install SqlServer 2005 under Windows 7 64 bit on my machine .
First let me tell you what I've done and what I've got till now .
1-I Installed Windows 7 64 Bit on my computer
2-I tried to install SQl Server 2005 "Developer Edition"
2.1 But in "System Configuration Check" Page i recieved 2 warning , One for "IIS Feature Requirement" and another for "ASP.NET Version Registration Rquired" .
2.1.1 . I installed "Internet Information Services" from "Turn Windows features on or off" section in control panel
2.1.2 I Enabled reporting service 32 bit from "Inetpub= AdminScripts = adsutil.vbs
2.2 At this stage There was no waring in System Configuration Check
3- So I installed SQl Server 2005 Developer Edition By all default settings
4- I installed Sql Server 2005 Service Pack 3 64 bit
Now when when i run "Management Studio" There is no name in "Server name" section . I typed my Computer name Or "." and i got this Error :
A network -related
instance-specific error occurred while
establishinga connection to SQL
Server. The server was not found or
was not accessible. Verify that the
instance name is correct and that SQL
Server is configured to allow remote
connections. (Provider: Named Pipes
Provider , error :40 - Could not open
a connection to SQL Server ) (
Microsoft SQL Server , Error :2) .
I googled some for this Error and some people said follow this instruction:
Startsql server 2005Configuration
toolsSql Server Surface Configuration
AreaSurface Area Configuration for
services and Connections
But i got this Error :
No SQl SErver 2005 Components were
found on the specified computer .
Either no components are installed ,
or you are not a administrator on this
computer (SQLSAC)
I'm really tired because of that , and i don't know what's wrong with this .
Some more information :
I have no additonal software on my computer , like Antivirus or Proxy
I tried all step with "Standard Edition" either , but no difference
My user is Administrator
I tried more than 5 times all those steps including re-installing Windows 7 .
Please help me , I'm losing all my hair
