sql server connect:
I installed SQL Server 2000 on Win2k3, and it seemed
to install correctly, but I could never connect to the
database. I uninstalled it and attempted to reinstall it,
but I always get this message "Setup failed to configure
the server" then it aborts.
I tried everything in MSKB #801499, but it still will not
install. I've deleted the install directories and temp
files too. Here's the text from the sqlstp.log file:
Starting Service ...
