I have done a freresh install of Windows 2003, patches and now trying to
install MSDE RelA.

I use the command line "SETUP SAPWD="Password"" and it appears to install
successfully. I restart. When I try to install an application that uses
MSDE it claims there is no database.

I do a "netstat -an" and do not see anything listening on port 1433. I've

MSDE installs by default with Windows Security only. Setting an sa password
doesn't influence that. You also have to add SECURITYMODE=SQL to your setup
script if you want to use SQL Security.

You can change an MSDE installation to use SQL Security after it has been
installed by changing the registry key
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer\LoginMode to 2.

See:

for extensive info.

Brian,
By default MSDE RelA installs with TCP protocol turned off for security
reasons. Use svrnetcn.exe in the Binn folder to enable protocols and
configure ports.
