Hi All
I'm installing SQL 2005 dev on Windows 2003 sp2 std edition, The installation goes through fine but when it gets to the SQL Server Db services it fails with the below error. I have google the error but most of the solutions are based on successful installation with SSMS installed. Pls Help
Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 -- Error 29515. SQL Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration.
The error was: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'sa'.
Refer to server error logs and setup logs for more information. For details on how to view setup logs, see "How to View Setup Log Files" in SQL Server Books Online.
Tx!!
It's better to fail while trying, rather than fail without trying!!!

You first need to check the error log file for sql server which contains the logs of all errors.
It is located at %programfiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log\ and will have detailed information about what is failing
