Problem During Installation SQL Server 2005 on Windows 7
- by mlife
Yesterday I was trying to install SQL Server 2005 on windows 7. During
installation a popup error dialog shown with this message:
The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL
Server Books Online topics, "How to: View SQL Server 2005 Setup Log Files" and
"Starting SQL Server Manually.
Here is the captured screen:
But in books online there was no useful information!
After some hours googling, I did not found any useful
information and at 3 o'clock of midnight, I was scratching my head!
Believe it, I attempted to install SQL Server more than 15 times
with different manners (with command prompt & parameters and else).
Eventually I found the resource of problem, that was "BitDefender
Internet Security 2010"!
After uninstalling BitDefender Internet Security, I installed
SQL Server 2005 and then reinstalled BitDefender.
Just that! Problem resolved.
Conclusion:
After installing a new version of windows and it's requirements (like IIS and
language specifications & else), first install the SQL Server and the Visual Studio
and then other applications.Hope be helpful.
