No service found for SQL
-
I had a hard time installing MSDE 2000 onto my system but I eventually did. However, when I check my add remove programs all I see in there is Microsoft SQL CE 2.0 Server Tool but no SQL server. Futhermore everytime I re-start I get a message that states:"The system can not find the file specified". First I am not sure if MSDE was fully installed, since I was getting an error message before. Second: I am not sure how to assign service to application since its computer name appears in there but yet it can nto find service. 1. So my question is how do I assign service to SQL server? 2. How do I know that it is MSDE that is installed? 3. I am getting an error when attempting to start MSSQL Server AD Helper? Thanks and any information which can help will be greatly appreciated.

1. You shouldn't have to do anything, install should take care of this. 2. from your description, it's not. You should be able to open the services admin tool , and see mssqlserver service. you should be able to start and stop it. There shouldbe a small "server" icon in the system tray (XP). A right click there should get "open Sql Server Manager" as a menu item. from the manager you should be able to start/stop the server, Sql Server agent and DTC. 3. if the server itself is not running, the AD helper can't start. I would uninstall and try again (what problems did you have installing it - what OS are you installing to?)
