SQL Server 2005 is giving me the following error during the “System Check” portion of the initial install: “The SQL Server Configuration Checker cannot be executed due to WMI configuration on the machine Error:2147749907 (0x80041013).”
Machine is a Dell D620 running XP SP2.
I found a batch command online that is supposed to fix the problem, but it didn’t work.
Any ideas?
Manju Madhavan on my team finally found the answer:
The setup asked for long list of files that I had to search around to find. Some were in the i386 folder on the XP SP3 disk, some in %windir%/system32. As the installer would stop and ask for a file I would search around until I found a copy.
Manju found the answer online and documents it on her blog.
