Re: Error: Cannot find a valid Windows XP Embedded database installed

Thanks for your answer Sean!

I know it sounds strange, but I've already tried both options: starting
the SQL service and rebooting the computer. It's making me crazy,
because I can see the "icon tray" of the MSSQL Server telling me that
it's running normally.

Any other advice?

If you performed an upgrade to MSDE, you might have to reboot the system or
just start the SQL service in order to install SP2.

Hi!

I'm trying to install Windows XP Embedded but I'm getting an error.
I've installed XPE SP1 without no problem. I'm just installing the
database, I'll install the tools in another computer. Well, the problem
appears when I try to upgrade the database to SP2. This is the message
I get:

---
Cannot find a valid Windows XP Embedded database installed.
Setup cannot continue.
WEUpdate Exiting with return code: 64
---

What's going on here? I've checked the permission of the repositorie
folder, but without any succeed. I also have looked at Windows webpage,
but I haven't found anything else yet (I'm still looking for a
solution, because it's very strange that this error is not documented).

Any help would be great! Thanks very much!
