Hi, Just to make sure... your question is regarding which credentials to use, right? The credentials are included in the Notes section in the Installation Instructions document, available from the download site http://research.microsoft.com/apps/pubs/default.aspx?id=80867. You don't need to reinstall. Just download the Installation Instructions and use the admin credentials provided there and you should be fine. Do let us know if you have any more questions.

Hi Sowmya. This forum is for our "Research Output Repository Platform." I'm not sure I understood the relevance of the things you're requesting. Regards, Harsh

Yes. Could you please check the following: 1. The target SQL Server instance has Windows or Mixed Mode authentication enabled. 2. The user running the install has his login added to the target SQL Server instance. 3. The login is a member of the following roles: a. dbcreator b. securityadmin c. serveradmin If all of the above are true and you're still getting the same error even after explicitly launching Setup.exe as an admin, could you please try creating a new database through the SQL Server

Hi David, No, the SQL Server instance information is not case sensitive. On Vista and Win 2008 Server the Setup.exe needs to be explicitly run as admin. Our Beta 1 installer does not support automatic elevation. So even if you've logged-in as admin you need to launch Setup.exe by right-clicking and selecting "Run as administrator". Could you please try this? Regards, Harsh

Hi David, Is the MS SQL Express instance you mentioned on the same machine on which you're running the install? If yes, can you please confirm that you're entering the SQL Server instance name in either of the following two formats: 1. <ComputerName\InstanceName> example: mycomputer\sqlexpress 2. .\<InstanceName> example: .\sqlexpress BTW, I'm not sure I understood which OS you have. Regards, Harsh

Hi Mahbob, I apologize for the delay in replying but we're not able to repro your issue. Can you please confirm the following? 1. The user running the installer is an admin and has the necessary DB permissions on the target SQL Server instance as specified in the installation guide. 2. Can you please try installing to a different SQL Server 2005 Instance? Regards, Harsh

Hi Mahbob, To help us debug the issue could you please provide us with some more information about your target environment? We'd like to know the following: OS version SQL Server version and edition (example SQL Server 2008 Enterprise or SQL Server 2008 Express) Regards, Harsh

Hi yngyani, This error may occur on some configurations if .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 is not installed. However, if .NET 3.5 SP1 is installed setup should proceed normally. Regards, Harsh
