Default SQL Server 2008 Setup ERROR - 07-03-2009 , 11:43 AM






Hi ALL,


when I try to install SQL Server 2008 I get the following error:


TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Setup
------------------------------

The following error has occurred:

Access to the path 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\License
Terms\SQLServer2008_License_ENT_1033.rtf' is denied.

Click 'Retry' to retry the failed action, or click 'Cancel' to cancel this
action and continue setup.

For help, click:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkI...25400x08A3AE96

------------------------------
BUTTONS:

&Retry
Cancel
------------------------------
NOTE: I have checked the path and the file
SQLServer2008_License_ENT_1033.rtf and it exists in the same path and I can
open it but I don’t know why the setup cant access the file.

Anybody can help please.

Thanks in advanced

Thanks heaps for this solution.
I got this error when attempting to add the Management Tools - Complete to
an existing sql server 2008 developer edition instance.
I had first installed SQL Server Express edition, and then installed SQL
Server developer edition as a seperate instance. The error came when I tried
to add the Management Tools - Complete feature to the MSSQLSERVER instance.

At a guess, I'd say that the installer does not expect that file to exist,
and it is trying to create the file without appropriate logic to handle
overwrite conditions.
