Can not run SQL Enterprise Manager

[Doina]

Hello,

When I try to run Enterprise Manager for SQLServer 2000, I get the following error:

Runtime Error!
Program: c:\winnt\system32\mmc.exe
R6025
-pure virtual function call

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Doina,

What is the OS of the computer you are running Ent Manager on? Pro, Server, Advanced, Datacenter? "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

What client are you running EM from? The server itself? Or a Windows client? Have you installed the Service Pack for SQL 2000? I know that SQL 7 had this problem when the EM was run from certain clients, and SQL 7 SP2 included a fix for it.

Hello,

I've installed SQL Enterprise Manager on a W2K box running Small Business Server. SQLServer is running on a different box.
The Enterprise Manager used to work on the Small Business Server. At some point we had to reinstall the SBS (due to virus attack...) and then all the other software that we needed on the SBS. Enterprise Manager is not working since then.

Thanks,
Doina

Have you tried removing the SQL Tools and reinstalling them? It sounds to me like some component of the tool suite isn't properly registered.

No, I have not.
I got some instructions from Microsoft on how to unregister/register some .dll files from
Program Files\Microsoft SQL\Server\80\Tools\Binn directory.
I'm tempted to try that, first.

Thanks,

Nah, I'd just uninstall it and reinstall. It's not that hard. The installation program will reregister all the .dll's.

 

[Doina]

Ok, I'll do that as soon as I'll have access to the system.
Thanks,
Doina
