Error installing SQL Server Management Studio Express on Windows Vista RC1

Hello NG,
After installing SQL Server 2005 Express Edition on Windows Vista RC1, I wanted to install also the Managent Studio but I always receive the following error message:
"Bei der Installation dieses Pakets ist ein unerwarteter Fehler aufgetreten. Es liegt eventuell ein das Paket betreffendes Problem vor. Der Fehlercode ist 29506."
Where can I find more infos about this error-code?
Anybody knows this problem?
Thank in advance for every help.

Thanks Nilashis....
It worked for me as well...cheers............ :)

  • Impossible to open .dtproje file after re-installing SQL Server Management Studio

    Hi all,
    today, after re-installing SQL Server Management Studio from a package downloaded from MS web site (SQLManagementStudio_x64_FRA.exe), I tried to open a SSIS package file via Visual Studio and I get a message stating that  this type of project (.dtproj)
    is not supported.
    Here are the events that lead to this problem:
    We have SQL Server 2005 installed on a server and are planning to migrate to SQL Server 2012.
    1 - Earlier this year, to solve a problem that we had with the SSMS client, we installed SSMS 2012 client on my station.
    At this point, it worked fine for SSMS and when I tried to access SSIS it converted the packages  to SSIS 2012 and it worked fine too.
    2 - Yesterday, I tried to access SSMS and I had the message that the test period had expired; at this point I could open a SSIS file.
    3 - To solve the problem with SSMS we decided to re-install it. It worked fine for SSMS but now I am not able to open a SSIS file.
    Do you have any idea of what the problem is and what should I do to solve it?
    It seems that there are some SSIS component missing, how could I get them back?

    You are welcome Sylviep,
    Based on what I see you want to create BI projects (e.g. a SSIS project), thus it will be enough to install SSDT
    which is part of the SQL Server installation media. I do not see why you would re-install SQL Server itself.

    Hello,
    I have seen in the past that error and is generally related to remnants
    from previous installations of SQL Server. Manually uninstalling the remnants may help as explained on the following resources:

    Executed SQL statement: select columnName1, columnName2 etc....
    Error source: Microsoft. VisualStudio.DataTools

  • Installing SQL Server Management Studio

    This has been a very frustrating experience or more accurately numerous receptions of the same experience. Here's the problem.
    I have Visual Studio 2010 installed on my 64bit PC.with the version of SQL Server 2008 Express that was packed with the Visual Studio.
    I attempted to install the SQL Management Studio (SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU) and the install failed indicating that I needed SQL Server Service Pack 1.  I downloaded SP 1 run the SSME again with the same result. I then ran the Windows Microsoft update,
    which update 13 programs including Visual Studio 2010. I tried to run the install again (for the fourth time) and the results were the same.
    Can anyone suggest a solution?
    Thanks,

  • SBS 2003 migration to SBS 2011 - Question about SQL Server Management Studio

    I am preparing to do a migration from SBS2003 to SBS2011. In the migration instructions it tells me to install SQL Server Management Studio Express Service
    Pack 2. I have SQL Server Management Studio (NOT EXPRESS) installed and it is on SP2. 
    Do I need to also install the express version to do the migration?
    Thanks in advance,
    Dan

    Hi,
    Thanks for your posting.
    I think you don't need to install the express version.

  • What version of SQL Server Management Studio do I need?

    I need to install SQL Server Management Studio on my windows 8.1 PRO 64-bit pc to manage SQL server 2008 R2. do I download the 2014 or 2012  or 2008 version?

    Hello,
    Install the SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) of the same version of SQL Server you have installed.
    If you modify maintenance plans using a newer version of SSMS, you then cannot use a lower version of SSMS to modify/change it again.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    You just installed SQl server management studio I guess and when you connected the system already had SQL Server 2005 and it connected to it.
    If you are sure you installed express with advanced services (2008 r2) you need to go to Start..all program..can you see SQL server 2008 r2 listed ?
    Now open SSMS for 2008 r2 and instead of connecting with default instance look for other instances in drop down in server name you would fine that for SQL Server 2008 r2 connect to that

  • Cannot launch SQL Server management studio

    What can i do for repair this? Uninstall the sql instance? This affect to sap system installed?
    Other options?
    More thanks

    Hi Ruben,
    What is the MS SQL Server version and SP level ? Which windows server is it - 2000/2003/2008 - 32bit/64 bit ?
    Is the database/SAP up and running ?
    I got to see another old thread for similar problem from you. Is it a regular problem or just something happened recently ? Any configuration changes/any activity related to MS SQL Server or any OS changes done recently ? But as the link suggests in your old thread, may be you can give it a try or try upgrading the sql server to a higher SP level ?
    Starting SQL Server Management Studio Express
    If you are an SAP customer, I would suggest you to open a customer message if the problem is urgent and in productive/live landscape.
    Thanks

  • SQL Server Management Studio has stopped working when changing fonts and colors

    I installed sql server management studio 2012 about 3 months ago to test drive and from time to time I'll attempt to change my background color of the TSql editor "In the fonts and colors option under tools"; however, the entire studio crashes
    and restarts.
    This has been ongoing since I first installed it 3 or 4 months ago, and have waited on posting to a fourm for help, assuming I am not the only one this is happening to I've waited for an update that might fix the issue.
    I've got to start on some heavy scripting and that god awful white background kills my eyes. I've got to have a black background or my work day is cut off by about 3 hours becuase of strain.
    What can I provide to someone that would help me with this?

  • SQL Server Management Studio - Configuring the environment for first time use

    Hi
    I have recently switched my local 'My Documents' folder location to a network drive that I 'make available off line' to allow on-line/off-line work and synchronisation when I am working in and out of the office.
    When I load my SQL Server Management Studio 2005 I frequently get 'Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is configuring the environment for first time use'.
    Management Studio  them loads and I can continue without problem.
    I am guessing it is trying to make reference to some settings file. Any ideas? I wonder if I can change/move these settings elsewhere to a local drive?
    Thanks
