Re: SQLDUMPER library error message (PLEASE HELP)

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Success! ...of a sort. I ran services.msc and disabelled SQL Server VSS
Writer, which "provides the interface to backup/restore Microsoft SQL server
throught the Windowss VSS infrastructure." I don't know what that means, but
wonder what effect/s it will have on which programs and processes down the
road. Any ideas?

OK guys, I've done it all and still get the error message. I also went to
the SQL forum recommended by Rock and posted this message:

I have the exact same problem running Windows XP Pro/SP2, and would like to
fix it. Surly someone here must know how to do it. Here's what I've done so
far w/ no help:

--I ran eusing registry cleaner and "fixed" 707 problems
--I ran msconfig and could find nothing like SQLDUMPER in the Startup lines
to uncheck
--Then I ran sfc /scannow followed by Disk CleanUp w/ no change

A couple other things: 1. The problem started after I uninstalled Microsoft
Accounting 2007, a new program that I do not even know when or why I
downloaded to my computer. It may be purely coincidental, but that is when it
started. I'd go back to a Restore Point, but I don't know when installed the
software. 2. The error message ends w/ this "...Please uninstall then re-run
setup to correct this problem." The problem is I do not know what to
uninstall or what setup to re-run.

Registry cleaners are dangerous in unskilled hands and in any case would
not help with your error. You need to either contact Microsoft
Accounting 2007 tech support - and this could not have magically
installed by itself, you must have installed it with something - perhaps
an MS Office 2007 trial - or do a System Restore.

You will be able to tell which System Restore point to restore to be
looking at them. When you highlight the dates in bold on the System
Restore calendar on the left, look on the right panel. This will say
what happened. If you are fortunate, you'll see an entry made just
before you installed MS Accounting. That's the restore point you want.
If you are unfortunate and can't find such an entry, then surely you
remember roughly when you installed this new program. Pick a date before
that with the understanding that going back more than a few weeks isn't
a good idea.

I also doubt that you would see an entry in msconfig for SQLDUMPER since
this is only produced when there is an error in whatever is using SQL.
You should be looking for something Office-related that is set to start
with Windows.

You might also see if there is a SQL service running and temporarily
disable it. This is only useful and safe if you have no other programs
using SQL. If you are a home user, you probably don't. To do this:

Start>Run>services.msc [enter]

Scroll down until you see the correct SQL entry, double-click it, stop
the service and set it to disabled.
