Re: SQL Server Native Client is not supported on the current proce

There is a <Shared Components > listed there, but the version is
10.0.1075.23. I did hit next, and the option to remove the client tools was
available. I unselect the Client tools so that it will uninstall. However,
during the uninstall process, it gets skipped, and I get the following
information from the log:

Product features discovered:
Product: SQL2005

Product: SQL2008
Instance: MSSQLSERVER
Product Version: 10.0.1075.23

Feature Edition Language
SQLEngine Developer Edition 1033
SQLEngine\DataFiles Developer Edition 1033
SQLEngine\FullText Developer Edition 1033
SQLEngine\SharedTools Developer Edition 1033
AS Developer Edition 1033
RS Developer Edition 1033

Product Version: 10.0.1075.23

Feature Edition Language
SQLEngine Express Edition 1033
SQLEngine\DataFiles Express Edition 1033
SQLEngine\SharedTools Express Edition 1033

Feature status after execution:
Client Tools: Skipped

As you can see, it still thinks something for 2005 is installed.

I have not seen a scenario such as I'll tell you right now, but somehow this
might happened to you.

When you open Programs and Features in CP, click on the Microsoft SQL Server
2008 and click Remove button. "Select Instance" window will appear. There,
you'll see installed components. Is there a "<Shared Component>" item in the
"Installed Instances" list? If so, what's the version of that Shared
Component item?

I'm not even sure if 9.x components would be listed there... Just a
suggestion.

Any ideas on why I'm getting the following error when trying to
install
the
tools for SQL 2008?

Setup has detected SQL Server 2005 Client Components on the computer
where
you are installing SQL Server 2008. SQL Server 2008 installation is
not
supported side-by-side with SQL Server 2005 Client Components. You
must
either install SQL Server 2008 Client Components on a different
computer
or
uninstall SQL Server 2005 Client Components before installing SQL
Server
2008
Client Components.

I had the components installed, but have uninstalled everything and
restarted several times. I am still getting this error message
though.
Are
there some registry keys I need to delete?

I ran the SQL Configuration manager and my machine had no instances

I also looked in servers and no services for SQL existed.

I then ran the install for SQL Server 2008 CTP that came in November
2007.
It installed an instance of SQL Server correctly. However, it
failed to
install the Client Tools and SQl Server Books online. The error
message
I am
getting now it:

However, I have uninstalled all SQL 2005 components. Do I need to
remove
certain files? Any ideas?

Did you review the error logs? How exactly are you verifying that
"no
instance of SQL 2005 was installed"?

I looked in my program files and I have files in both Program
Files (x86) and Program Files.

Yes, both of these folders should be present (in most cases) on
x64.
The
important part is, where did you find the specific file,
sqlservr.exe,
if at
all?

I had two warning during install. One was
that IIS was not running (although IIS 7 was running) and the
other
was an
issue with reporting services. Would these warnings cause the
instance of
SQL Server to not install?

No, they would simply affect reporting services. Could you try a
much
more
simple install, e.g. just the database engine and client
connectivity
components. That is, once you have explained how you have
verified
that no
instance is already installed, and we have helped you figure out
whether
that is accurate or not.
