SQL Server 7.0 - SQL Server is terminating due to 'stop' request from

[mattpont]

Hi all,

I get this error when trying to install SQL Server 7.0:

"SQL Server is terminating due to 'stop' request from Service Control Manager"

I am installing it via remote desktop to a Windows Server 2003 machine. I have created an .iso image of my installation disk which I have uploaded to my server. I then use a tool called "Daemon tools" to treat this image as a normal CD.

I don't know what to do now, as I can't get anywhere when trying to install SQL server. I managed to install it locally on the server, but have since removed the installation. Now the server has gone to the the up to the server hosting guys, I can't reinstall it...

SQL Server is one of those programms that you don't want to install from an image. You can put the OS on with an image, but you'll need to install SQL by hand.

Check the event log and see if there is anything in there as to why it stopped. Is there anything else in the errorlog? That message means that someone or something stopped the SQL Server.

Is this happening during install, or after the SQL Server is installed? Your post wasn't to clear on that.

This error happens during installation.

I take it there is nothing in any other logs?
