The following error message is displayed when installing SQL Server 2000:
An error occurred while configuring the server for the installer. Refer to the server error log and c: \ winnt \ sqlstp. Log

When you want to reinstall SQL Server and the prompt "your computer has an instance installed" appears, you can delete the Program Files \ Microsoft SQL Server folder and registry information, then install.
 
XX Dynamic Link file not found

When a dynamic link file cannot be found, try to find the file in the installation file of SQL Server, copy the file to the system and system32 folders in the system directory. (when this error message is displayed, the system prompts which folders do not contain this file)

When the installation program fails to configure the server, try to solve it

This error message can be found in the system directory. For example, if my system is windowxp, the file is stored in c: \ windows \ sqlstp. log.

When this error occurs, it is because the SQL Server Content in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ ODBC is deleted in the registry.
You can fix the registry or install the ODBC Repair Tool.
ODBC Repair Tool: 211.101.4.50/download/canyin/tools/mdac_typ.exe

Check the sqltp. log file generated on my machine. The second error is found.

I did not find the content for installing ODBC driver in "Data Source (ODBC)" under "Administrative Tools. This problem occurs because some programs that use the ODBC Data Source will delete the ODBC driver information during uninstallation.

Later, we only need to use odbcconf.exe to re-register the ODBC driver.

There are several script files in the Windows/system32 directory to complete the registration of the driver:

Odbcconf.exe/S/LV odbcconf. log/F % SystemRoot % \ system32 \ mdaccore. RSP
Odbcconf.exe/S/LV odbcconf. log/F % SystemRoot % \ system32 \ sqlclnt. RSP
Odbcconf.exe/S/LV odbcconf. log/F % SystemRoot % \ system32 \ odbcconf. RSP
Odbcconf.exe/S/LV odbcconf. log/F % SystemRoot % \ system32 \ redist. RSP

By running the preceding command in the doscommand line, the ODBC driver is registered.
ODBC is good, but the re-installation of SQL has the same problem as the first time. I started to feel a little discouraged, and then I put the installation disk into it, I found that there was an advanced option during installation. I clicked it and checked the rebuild registry option. So I backed up the registry and chose this option again, as a result, My SQL can be used this time. I am very happy for several days.

If the installation fails after the "advanced options", we recommend that you run the SQL Server Installation program again. This time, select the "upgrade, delete, or add components to an existing SQL server instance" item, "Add a component to an existing installation ". After the installation is complete, Run "Enterprise Manager". If you select "SQL Server and Windows ", the user-defined secret is entered during the "advanced options" Installation Process (note that the authentication method is not selected during the "add component installation" process) when registering SQL Server, the following problems may occur:
---------------------------
SQL Server Enterprise Manager
---------------------------
Unable to establish connection with Zou.

Cause: User 'sa 'Login Failed ..

Verify that SQL server is running and check SQL Server Registration attributes (by right-clicking the Zou node), and then try again.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

If the SA password is blank when you create SQL Server registration, the registration is successful.
Is it because the SA password set during the original installation has been changed during the "add component installation" process and is set to null?
