Hi,

I get this error when installing Management Tools and Business
Intelligence Development Studio:
Error 1310.Error writing to file:
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Applications.Project. dll. System error
0. Verify that you have access to that directory.

At first this error appeared during full installation: SQL Server
engine and RS were installed properly but installation of Management
Tools and Business Intelligence Development Studio failed. When I try
to add features to existing instance I also get this error.

I am installing SQL Server on domain controller (test environment for
Dynamics CRM 4) and I am logged in as domain administrator.

Any suggestions?

So my want to check that this directory and file is OK. Note that
on a 32-bit OS, there is no (x86) in the path. And if you are installing
SQL 2005, the path should be 8.0 instead.

1. I am installing SQL Server 2009 Standard

2. I don't have this file in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
9.0\Common7 IDE\PrivateAssemblies".

But the installer may not be able to write to that directory if permissions

Then again:

I don't have any C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\URTInstallPath_ GAC on
my machine, but maybe this is something which is created by the installer
and then deleted. In any case, this is one more point to investigate.

I have manually copied Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Applications.Project. dll
from "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7
IDE\PrivateAssemblies" on my computer to the same directory on server and
then the installation passed with no problems.

So there is a workaround for the problem but I still don't know what caused
it.

Anyway, thanks for help.

Regards,
David
