Hello

I am trying to install client tools on my desktop and I am getting the following error :

Edition Change Check (Warning)

Messages

To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005,
you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter.

This error , I am have seen in the logs.

The installation wizard is closing down with the above log error.

Thanks

do you already have the client tools installed? it looks like setup thinks you do.

are you installing the server or just the client tools? it looks from the message that you are installing the server as well. If so, and if you already have a 2000 default instance installed, then you need to install the ~~2k4~~ 2k5 instance as a named instance.

from the error msg, setup appears setup is trying to upgrade a 2k instance to 2k5, and not install a separate 2k5 instance.

I am just trying to install the 2005 client tools.
I have the IIS , on my system. Do you want me to remove the IIS and try to install.

Thanks

IIS has nothing to do with it.

I am at a loss here. perhaps someone else can help you.

I have tried to uninstall and re-install everything , but still I am struck.

The log file shows:

And I donot see any significant error. Is there any round about for the installation

In my cd , I have got the zip of the 2005 , I am unzipping it in the C:\docandsettings\microsoftsqlserver\.. and then running it.

Thanks

please see this note: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907284

it doesn't look like you have the files in the proper directories when you ran the setup.

Now I am struck up with this error:

Error code 2356 : Could not locate cabinet in stream : sql.cab

How can I go about this. I have tried to google this error , but didnot find much information.

Thanks

generally error code 2356 means you have corrupt install media. try downloading the installation again and starting over.
