Login failed for user 'sa'

dbgurudk · 2008-04-21, 15:59

Hi Folks,

When I use the 1-click install I get this error during MSSQLExpress.

SQL Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was:
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server] Login failed for user 'sa'

Anu clue?

Did you use the password MediaPortal?

Regards
Roy

dbgurudk · 2008-04-21, 16:11

nope

I thought I should choose my own?

Do I just have to leave it as is?

ronilse · 2008-04-21, 16:13

If you selected your own & added that to the field on installation it should work, but if you weren't asked MediaPortal it's used & should work

Hmmmm.....

I'm installing under Vista 32bit

Could that be the reason????

Hi,
Nope, i'm even using it on 2 x64 computers.
Was SQL installed by DeployTool?

dbgurudk · 2008-04-21, 16:22

yes....

I use the 1-click option in the deploy tool....

Don't get it

ronilse · 2008-04-21, 16:34

Hi,
If DeployTool installed it the password is MediaPortal

The problem is that the deploy tool never finishes....

It stops with this pop-up during the SQL installation!

Damn...

Hi,
Then reboot & try installing it again
