I received a class of errors. Each seems to fail because of a test against
dependant features. I'm not sure about how to correct these type problems.
There seem to be about 10 of these errors in the detail.txt file.
2008-10-02 19:36:42 Slp: Action
"ConfigEvent_SQL_SSMS_Adv_sql_ssms_Cpu32_Install_ConfigRC_postmsi" will
return false due to the following conditions:
2008-10-02 19:36:42 Slp: Condition "Feature dependency condition for action:
ConfigEvent_SQL_SSMS_Adv_sql_ssms_Cpu32_Install_ConfigRC_postmsi The
condition tests feature: SQL_SSMS_Adv_sql_ssms_Cpu32. There are 10 dependant
features. The feature is tested for results: ValidateResult, Result." did not
pass as it returned false and true was expected.
2008-10-02 19:36:42 Slp: Condition is false because the required feature
SQL_SSMS_Adv_sql_ssms_Cpu32 failed in result Result
2008-10-02 19:36:42 Slp: Error: Action

I'm planning to uninstall SQL Server 2008 and run the Process Monitor. The
Process Monitor is greatly improved over previous versions. I'll set the
filter to only get the installation events.

When installing SQL Server 2008 SSMS fails to install with an error that
the Handle is Invalid. This caused me to uninstall and reinstall 3
separate times. Before the last reinstall I uninstalled all of SQL
Server 2005 and it made no difference. My intent was to use SQL Server
2008 SSMS to control SQL Server 2000 and 2005 databases also but I no
longer even have SSMS on my system because of the failed installs.
I believe that this is due to that something is wacko in your registry.
But before we go any further: do you have SQLPrompt from RedGate installed?
There is an issue with SQLPrompt where it can cause the SSMS installation
to fail. As I resarched this, it appears that the symptom is different in
that case, but there is a voice in the back of my head. In such case, get
version 3.9 of SQL Prompt.
The first attempt to track this down is to look at the log file. In
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log you will
find a number of directories, one for each install attempt. In that
directory, there are a number of log files, and one is for SSMS. These
logs are extremely verbose, and trying to read it all is a hopeless
task. Start from the back, and try to find out where things go wrong.
Or search for "error" or "invalid".
That may sort things out, but most likely not. The next thing to try
is Process Monitor which you can download from
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
Run this as you run the install. You can apply filters, and errors
usually sticks out. This should lead to the culprit, but it's certainly
tedious.
