Problem with SQL Database

I have been trying to install Outlook 2003 Business Contact Manager Upgrade.
I get the the very end of the installation process when it tells me that it
is having a problem with doing something to the server. It then uninstalls
the upgrade. I am using Outlook 2003 and Windows XP Home addition.

Thanks
 
Hi

What the version of Bcm that you are trying to install ?Also looking at what
you stated seems to be a problem with the MSDE part of it .If it is BCM V2
go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL$MICROSOFTSMLBIZ\Install
and check the confgsvr.out file.This would give a better idea on what going
wrong ?

Here is what the file says:

SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

-m -Q -T4022 -T3659

Connecting to Server ...

driver={sql
server};server=YOUR-W92P4BHLZG\MICROSOFTSMLBIZ;UID=sa;PWD=;database=master

SQL Server configuration failed.

Does this mean ODBC Driver Manager doesn't exist?
 
Hi Bigguy

Thanks for the update.Look like it an issue a problem with the Open
Database Connectivity(ODBC) Drivers on a system,this is required to install
MSDE.Can you go to start > run > regedit and check whether you have the
following registry entries exsit (make sure you back up the registry before
making any changes).
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBCINST.INI

To resolve the problem, simply copy the missing registry from a good machine
or refer to the following KB Article 818954 "Error 1919. Error configuring
ODBC data source" error messages

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=818954

Also When copying a registry key from a good machine to a bad machine,
verify that the system directory is the same on both machines that is,the
system directory should be c:\windows on both the source and destination
machines. If they are different, setup will continue to fail.
