Beta Components Detected on SQL Server 2005 Installation

Author: aghausman | Posted: 17. December 2008 00:29 20
This weekend, I was in Morgan Technologies as they were facing some installation problem in SQL Server 2005 enterprise edition. So they called me up with relation to the community work. So the error was
Errors occurred during the installation:Beta components detected.
It looks that there is some beta software running on the server but after looking at the Program Files and Add Remove Program It seems that there is nothing installed before. No Visual Studio Installation (as that is server) , no Beta stuff. There was .net framework 2.0 installed but to get rid of this error I did uninstall that too.But the error doesnot seems to go. still the beta components deteced comes on screen each time I try to install SQL Server.So, Finally I found Microsoft MSI Cleanup Utility which did my job perfectly. on a clean machine where there is nothing Installed I found two microsoft beta installations, No idea where it came from but this tool remove that and afterward SQL Server installed like a butter with no issue.To download the tool : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301

I admit, I have not been on this webpage in a long time... however it was another joy to see It is such an important topic and ignored by so many, even professionals. I thank you to help making people more aware of possible issues.
Great stuff as usual...

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

I completely agree with the above comment, the internet is with a doubt growing into the most important medium of communication across the globe and its due to sites like this that ideas are spreading so quickly.

When I originally commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment.
Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
Thanks!
