error during SQL Server 2005 Express help...

The "Setup Progress" window displays the selected components to be configured.

After completion, the window displays a red x beside Reporting Services.

On all the other results, you can click and view a log generated during installation.

Clicking on the "Reporting Services" (that didn't install) does not display the log file.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Trint

You can get the setup logs from here - %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG\Files. Look for the RS log that looks something like SQLSetup0001_<machinename>_RS.log

I had this occur in the past, you can try to see if the reason for the
error appeared in the Event Viewer. I would suggest uninstalling SQL
Server 2005 Express and reinstalling it and of course, make sure that
you have all trial versions uninstalled before reinstalling it (where
applicable). Hope this helps.
