Error 1923 while installing SQL 2005 Express

This is from the event log

Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition -- Error 1923. Service 'SQL Server ()' () could not be installed. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to install system services.

I've tried uninstalling through control panel and various cleanup tools and tried reinstalling with no luck.

I'm logged on with a user that has full admin rights.

1923 is an RPC error that translates to "The specified profile entry could not be added." You'll need to search through the SQL Server Setup log files for more detail on what went wrong. Start by looking here and in the subdirectory:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG

Error 1920. Service 'ReportServer' (ReportServer) failed to start

Hello, I cannot install Reporting Services Developer Version, at the end of
the setup I got a message like:
Error 1920. Service 'ReportServer' (ReportServer) failed to start. Verify
that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
I have SQL SP3a, IIS, .NET 2003 all in the same computer.
Just cannot find how to solve the problem, seems to be something with the
account used to start the service, but with neither the built in account, not
a computer admin account can continue. Have no problem creating the database,
just to start the service.
Help pleaseMy problem is solved; I think you only need to change the installation path
of RS during the setup, but the following are the steps I follow:
1. Uninstall RS
2. Clean all signs of RS in the registry, the service and components
Delete in the registry the entries in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\RS Rep..
Delete the service from the command prompt
sc delete ReportServer
Delete the components in Component Services in
the control panel Administrative Tools in the COM+ Applications for the ISS
3. Install RS in a different path
I install RS in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL ServerRS
Also i rename the services in the setup to MSReportService, MSReports for
the
IIS part.
I have Windows XP with all in one box; I use a domain account, for the
services
and for the SQL login.

Hi,
I am beta testing MOM 2005 SQL MAnagement pack which requires the

Error 14258

Hi,
The SQLServerAgent has NOT started properly after a
shutdown/reboot two days ago. If you look at the service
manager, the service appears to have started, but its
really not.
Here is what you have to do:
Stop the SQLServerAgent (Not SQL Server)
Restart the service (make no errors are recorded)
Here is something else you may have not noticed, since
this error has been occurring, your scheduled jobs have
not run. You might want to backup your databases and run
any other jobs you may have.

OK I've stopped and restarted the service several times. Event Viewer claims
the service started succesfully. Where else can I look for errors? The SQL
Server logs show no errors with the Agent. But you are correct - the jobs
are NOT running! Any other sugggestions on where to look for the problem?

Error -133 on installing Service Pack 4 for SQL7

Hallo, my problem is to upgrade instance of SQL7 to SQL7 SP4.

Server is WIN2K SP4 + MDAC 2.8 SP1

Installing the SQL7 Server from CD is OK.

When i try to apply the SQL7 SP4 the first fase, when SP4 checks all conditions to start is OK, when start to copy file i receive an error -113 like this

--

Error occurred during the move data process: -113

Component Server: base server \ base server files

File Group: Base Server Files

File: C:\70SP4\X86\Setup.....\SQLIMAGE.DLL

--

On server is installed the library SQLDMO.DLL for SQL2000 but only the library used by an application VB6.

In need to install SQL7 and i can't install SQL2000 or SQL2005 because we work with an application written for SQL7. I've tried to migrate application SQL2000 but not work properly.

Somebody can help me ?

Thanks in advance.

Aragorn

Have you got or already installed SQL 7 on this machine?

If there are instances running for SQL 2000 and 2005 then you may not be able to install previous version of SQL until unless these are uninstalled.

It might be a problem with SP4 files, try to download again and apply.

This is an MSSQL (Microsoft SQL Server) newsgroup, so you will probably get
a better response in a MySQL forum.

error 1069: The service did not start due to logon problems

The local sql server that was working fine earlier does not start now. I have already created tables and accessed them using stored procedures.

I get an error 1069: The service did not start due to logon problems. I have only changed my domain password. I do not remember what authentication I chose for log on.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

When trying to access the sql server database I am
receiving the following error:
An error 1069 - (This service did not start due to logon
failure) occurred while performing this service operation
on the MSSQLServer sevice.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!It looks like you may have changed the password for whatever
account is running SQL Server. You need to change the
password setting for the services if you change the password
for the account.

That is, you get "The service did not start due to a logon failure."
This is because MS SQL Server, like anything else in Windows, needs an
Windows account to run under, and you have configured MS SQL Server to
use an account that does not exist or is locked out, or you have specified
the incorrect password. Or, not unlikely, it was a correct password once,
but you have later changed it.
In any case, right-click My Computer, select Manage. Find the Services
applet. Here look for the MSSQL Server service. Right-click it, choose
Properities, and go to the second Tab, where you can set login information.
If you set LocalSystem, you never have to bother about 1069 again. On
the other hand, if you run as local system, you cannot access networked
resources from SQL Server. (Which you mainly would do with BULK INSERT
or xp_cmdshell.)

Does this make sense?Go to control panel services. Change the account password to start the

error 1069

I have the evaluation edition (new one) running very well on my win2k
desktop. After installing it on my xp laptop I get error 1069 - the service
did not start due to a logon error.
Anyone have an idea what is causing this?
Thanks,
GaryCheck the service account for the MSSQLServer service. Make sure it is not
disabled, locked out or set to "user must change password at next logon." If
it's none of those, you may want to re-enter the password.

Hi,
I'm getting the following error message:

I read the articles you mentioned, and as I understood,
the resolution is:
(To resolve the problem, use these steps:
Change the startup account of both the MSSQLSERVER and
SQLServerAgent to use the Local System account.
Restart the computer. )
As I told you before, the problem is that I can not start
the 'SqlServer' and 'SqlServer agent', so I cann't go and
change the startup account. I don't know, I may be
confused, but I just encountered this Error (Error 1068)
while starting up the SQLServer.
Thanks for any suggestion in advance,
