Hi All
I am trying to install MDSE SP 4 for BCM V2 and get the message setup failed
to configure server.This is what the confsgvr.out states
An error occurred while attempting to start the service (1460)
SQL Server configuration failed.
I have already tried renaming the SQL folder and reinstall still the same
issue .Also did download and install ISS Script.Any ideas ?Thanks in advance
for your time and effort

if the machine is "clean" and no leftover are present at OS level and/or
registry level
(http://support.microsoft.com/default...99&Product=sql),
the problem can be related, on WinXP sp2, to MDAC stack corruption... you
can not fix it by reinstalling MDAC as no package exists for 2.8.1 level,
but you can fix it as described in

reg. Installation

Hi all,
I have sql 2000 client installed, with msde and sp 3a.
I am trying to install sql reporting beta version. The
installation abruptly terminates stating 'The setup need
sql server 8 or above with sp 3 installed'. Can anyone
help me in this issue asap.
regards,
Sivi.You have to have an installed instance of SQL Server 2000 (non-MSDE) in
order to install Reporting Services.
Look at the following link:
