Repairing lv 2012 installation

To increase my hard disk space, I have deleted some of the older version of LabVIEW, including LV861, 2009, 2010, and 2011. Now my new installation of 2012 will not run. I have tried to repair the installation, but it has asked for the LV861 installation DVD, which I cannot find. Specifically it is asking for nidist.id or(and?) nisuite.xml.
I have downloaded LV861, but have not installed it. Is my only option to install LV861?

What do you mean by delete? Did you go through the Windows Uninstall or did you go to the files and delete? If you just deleted, you would cause major problems. Some of the drivers and toolkits needed older versions of the Runtime Engine in order to run. But reinstalling those drivers should clear that up.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Unable to finish the SQL 2012 installation on a VM Machine

Hi, My name is Leonard and I am studying SQL. I have downloaded the newest MS SQL 2012 and also MS 2012 Hyper-V. I have set a MS 2012 Hyper-V on a laptop with AMD Turion 64 X2 and 3G of RAM (Planing
to add more to max at 8G).
Following the instructions in the free online
Administering Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Databases” Training Kit, I have set 6 virtual machines as instructed in the Training Kit. While the installation of the MS Server Core 2008 R2 SP1 completed with no
problem, the same cannot be said for the SQL Server 2012 installation. I have encountered an error that I have not seen anyone address in any of the SQL web forums.
After running the unattended setup instruction (Setup.exe /qs /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQLEngine /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER
/SQLSVCACCOUNT="Njowa\Pa$$worD>" /SQLSVCPASSWORD=" Pa$$worD” /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="Njowa\lenny#4!@" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\Network Service"
/IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS) this is what I get after a series SQL setup
initiation windows popups then disappears.
The following error occurred:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Error result: -2147467261
Result facility Code: 0
Result error Code: 16387
Please review the summary.txt log for further details
My question is: What instance of an object is not properly initialize in the Setup instructions

Hello,
Please note that SQL Server requires at least 1 GB of RAM. The operating system (Windows Server) requires 2 GB of RAM (recommended) or 512 MB (minimum). This means any virtual machine that will receive the installation of a SQL Server instance requires 1.5
or 2 GB at least.
The behavior of SQL Server setup tells me that the virtual machine does not have enough memory assigned or .NET Framework 3.5 was not enable on Control Panel->Program
and Features before trying to install SQL Server.
The following thread is about another possible cause of this error:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/mr-IN/sqlsetupandupgrade/thread/575d3025-69f5-4152-a473-44496b008811
Hope this helps.

Here's How to Repair your Windows Installation

Sometimes it is necessary or desirable to repair your Windows installation. For instance, you might see Windows showing unusual or unexplained slowdowns, failures to boot, devices no longer working like they used to, etc.
The following step by step procedure shows you how to do the repair. Note, that you will need the CD key that came with your Windows disk to complete this procedure.
1. Make sure boot order in BIOS is set to floppy (if you have one), cd/dvd, and then the HDD your original Windows was installed on.
2. Insert your original Windows CD into your cd/dvd drive (a slipstreamed cd with SP will also workif you have one). If the Windows Installion menu appears, select Install Windows.
3. If that menu does not appear, go to Start, Turn Off Computer, and then select Restart. After the POST, you will see a prompt, "Press any key to boot from cd..."
so press the space key (any other key will also work).
4. Let Windows setup continue.
5. After a short while you will see an option to repair your Windows using the Recovery Console. Do NOT select this option. Just continue.
6. Soon after this you will see a message "Searching for a previous Windows Installation".
7. When Setup finds your previous Windows installion you will be given an option to Repair that installation. Follow the prompt on the screen, i.e, press R to repair.
8. Now just let setup continue until it is complete and you see your desktop.
9. Then, go to Windows Update (Start, All Programs, Windows Update) and let it search for and install any available service packs, and/or other updates.
10. Lastly, if you have any drivers that are wish to use other than the ones in Windows, just install them in the normal fashion.
Now your Windows is repaired and fully updated, and hopefully the problems you saw previously have been fixed.

Thanks Bosskiller.
It seems everytime I do a fresh install I have trouble getting my cable internet going again.
I always seem to forget which files I need to download for the mobo to have access to that. ???
pickup drivers from here: http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/driver/dvr/spt_dvr_detail.php?UID=436&kind=1
what OS you use?
"It seems everytime I do a fresh install I have trouble getting my cable internet going again."
where its connected via ethernet port or via USB port? if you connect it through on-board LAN you need to install chipset drivers 1st. if you connect it via USB port ensure your OS installation is with included SP2 on it if its XP. then install chipset drivers as well.
if you use 98 install USB 2.0 drivers 1st,(http://download.msi.com.tw/support/dvr_exe/mbd_dvr/USB2W9XME009.zip) before install cable modem.

I need quick time 7.5.5 for itunes.How to repair problem of installation?

I have mac leopard 10.5.5 powerpc and I have itunes 10.6.3.
Itunes need Quick Time 7.5.5 or more.
I tried to install quick time but there is a problem of instalation.
How to repair problem of installation of Quick Time?

Some specific downloads of QuickTime:
7.5.5 for Tiger
7.6 for Tiger
7.6.4 for Leopard
7.7 for Leopard
Since you have Mac OS X 10.5, Leopard, it would probably be better to use one of those Leopard-specific downloads.

SCOM 2012 Installation problem - SQL Instance name

Hi All
Strange problem here, I wonder if anyone else has had the same issue.
I have a two-node SQL Server 2014 (Enterprise) Database server configured with a "SQL AlwaysOn Availability Group & Listener". The listener DNS name is: sql-ag-listener
On a separate server VM I attempted to install SCOM 2012 R2 - but when it came to the setup prompt to enter the "Servername & Instance" for the SQL server / Databases it will not accept my SQL AG Listener DNS name. However if I enter any
of the two individual SQL node names (SQL1 or SQL2) then it does accept those values and proceeds with the setup wizard. I do have a DNS entry for the SQL AG name.
All VMs are hosted in Azure. The SQL Servers are in their own Cloud Service and the SCOM MS Servers are in their own Cloud service.
I tried moving one of the SCOM MS Servers to the same Cloud Service container as the SQL Servers - still the same result.
Interestingly (as a test) - I started the SCOM 2012 Installation wizard on one of the SQL Servers and it DID accept the SQL AG value as the "Servername & Instance".
No firewalls are on. The VM endpoints allow SQL port 1433. Also, I can Telnet to the SQL Servers using 'telnet > O sql-ag-listener 1433' - response = Connected....
Not sure why this wont accept my virtual SQL AG name....?
thanks

Hi,
As when you install SCOM on one of your SQL server, then the AG name can be resolved, so it seems like this issue related with network resolution.
On the server where you want to run SCON setup, please use NSLOOKUP command to make sure it can the AG name to an IP address.
In addition, when you run the setup, don't select reporting server, as reporting server role need to install on a SQL server holding SSRS.
We still can install SCOM on normal database, and then add them into availability group later:

After sql server 2012 installation, I have changed sql server database engine service account from network service user to system user. What is disadvantages of this process?

     After
sql server 2012 installation, I   attached my production db. Because of some reasons, i
changed sql engine account from network service user to system user by means of sql server configuration manager.
     Now , there isn’t
a problem at sql server running system. But
I have doubts that
this can produce problems later. Because sql server database engine account must have privileges that listed below;
Log on as a service (SeServiceLogonRight)
Replace a process-level token (SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege)
Bypass traverse checking (SeChangeNotifyPrivilege)
Adjust memory quotas for a process
(SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege)
Permission to start SQL Writer
Permission to read the Event Log service
Permission to read the Remote Procedure Call service
While sql server installation, setup gives these
privileges to network service user automatically, but changing user by means of sql confugarition manager does not give these
privileges.
Now, system user has privileges listed below. And sql server has been running for 1,5 months without any problems.
Log on as a service (SeServiceLogonRight)
     Bypass traverse checking
(SeChangeNotifyPrivilege) (Everyone user has his privileges. So i think that system user has this privilege also)
What problems can occur because of this situation? Shall i give other privileges to system user and restart sql server or not? And how can i give these privileges to system user listed below;
Replace a process-level token (
this can be set from user rights assignments)
Adjust memory quotas for a process
(this can be set from user rights assignments)
Permission to start SQL Writer (
? - give advice )
Permission to read the Event Log service (
? - give advice )
Permission to read the Remote Procedure Call service (
? - give advice )

Our server is windows server 2008 r2 enterprise edition. I have looked the bunch of permissions in user rights menu that is in local security policy settings gui.
And i have seen those permissions below were not granted to system user;
Bypass traverse checking (SeChangeNotifyPrivilege)
Adjust memory quotas for a process
(SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege)
So, briefly you say, don't panic ?

SCOM 2012 Installation fails while deploying Datawarehouse

Hi All,
I have a strange issue, My SCOM 2012 installation fails during Datawarehouse deployment. (This setup is not SCOM 2012 SP1 OR 2012 R2 it is just SCOM 2012)
When i check the SCOM installation logs it says it tried to connect to my Management server and it could not open Port 5724.
During the installation i checked that the SDK Service was stopping frequently and also a Visual studio debugger popup also occured. Can any one assist in solving the issue ?

Hi All,
So i got the actual commands to register the SPN. So the above were wrong. Hope the below is useful for some one if the face the above issue.
In Windows Server 2008R2 – the command is SETSPN –A. In WS2012, it changed to SETPSPN –S which checks for duplicates before it allows you to create them.
Legend: SCOM Server - SCOMSVR.Contoso.com
DNS Domain: Contoso.com
SDK Account: SDKSVC
To add SPN for the SDK Service:
===================================
In Win2k 12
setspn -S MSOMSdkSvc/SCOM Server FQDN Domain\SDK Account name
setspn -S MSOMSdkSvc/SCOM Server name without FQDN Domain\SDK Account name
Ex: setspn -S MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR.Contoso.com Contoso\SDKSVC
setspn -S MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR Contoso\SDKSVC
In Win2k8
setspn -A MSOMSdkSvc/SCOM Server FQDN Domain\SDK Account name
setspn -A MSOMSdkSvc/SCOM Server name without FQDN Domain\SDK Account name
Ex: setspn -A MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR.Contoso.com Contoso\SDKSVC
setspn -A MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR Contoso\SDKSVC
To verify the SPN's
============================
1. setspn -L MS Host name without FQDN
Ex: setspn -L SCOMSVR
2. setspn -L Domain\DSK Action account
Ex: setspn -L Contoso\SDKSVC
Post entering the above commands you should see the entries of the Healthservice and not the entries of the SDK Service.
1. If you are are using a Domain account for SDK / DAS then that entry should not appear when execute the command “setspn -L SCOMSVR”. Where SCOMSVR is the name of the MS and it should be without FQDN.
Example: The below entry should not appear when you enter setspn -L SCOMSVR
MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR
MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR.contoso.com
If you get the above entries for "setspn -L SCOMSVR" then you need to delete and re add the SPN again and re check.
If you get Duplicate entries the below post entering "setspn -L Contoso\SDKSVC" then you need to delete the duplicate entries and re add the SPN again and re check.
Ex: MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR
MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR.contoso.com
MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR.contoso.com
MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR
To delete a SPN if required:
===============================
setspn -D MSOMSdkSvc/SCOM MS FQDN Hostname without FQDN Hostname
setspn -D MSOMSdkSvc/Hostname without FQDN Hostname without FQDN again
Ex: setspn -D MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR.Contoso.com SCOMSVR
setspn -D MSOMSdkSvc/SCOMSVR SCOMSVR

SQL Server 2012 installation and to default user database files to a particular path

Hi, I am working on SQL Server 2012 installation on one of our test boxes and I would like to configure the sql server install binaries and all the system databases but for tempdb to be in my C and tempdb on a different drive and once all this is set up,
whenever a developer creates a new database without specifying the path for the mdf & ldf files. They should be defaulted to a path like "D:/Data file" & "D:/Log file" for instance instead of being created on the C drive.
Thanks in advance.........

Hi,
You can of course set default location of database through management Studio please refer below link. Once you change default location even if you do not specify location it would take default one.
http://sqlandme.com/2013/03/18/sql-server-changing-default-database-location-for-server/
I would advise you not to keep files on C drive let it be dedicated system drive also its quite possible that SQL server service account would not have privilege on C drive so after you move tempdb SQL server would not come online as tempdb files cannot
be created . Tempdb is always recreated after SQL Server starts so you just need to change location once using Alter database command
See example mentioned in below link for how to do that

while you are at it, do see the following guides which cover many aspects of this huge product including
standalone Primary
Hierarchy with CAS
Modern (Mobile) device management
http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/4045-system-center-2012-configuration-manager-guides/
however as Torsten has already stated, there are many factors that need to be taken into account to produce a working Configuration Manager 2012 installation, and the guides linked to provide one way of setting things up in a lab environment, you should
always consider the benefit of hiring a good Configuration Manager consultant, there are many that are active on these forums and their experience is invaluable.

Unable to repair failed Vista installation

I have an Acer desktop PC running Vista Home Premium which is refusing to boot with the following symptoms:
When I try to boot normally I get as far as the Windows loading screen with the moving bar, after that the screen goes black apart from the pointer and never gets any further.
I get the same result if I try to boot into safe mode except that, of course, instead of the moving bar I can see the various files loading up to and including Windows\System32\drivers\disk.sys
I have tried using a Vista installation DVD to repair but this is unable to find any operating systems to repair.
If I use the Vista installation DVD to go into command mode then bootrec /scanos is also unable to find Windows installations. In fact when loading from the DVD I don't seem able to see my hard drive at all! E.g. Diskpart LIST DISK only shows
removable drives with no media (presumably the ones on my internal card reader). Typing C: gives a drive not ready message.
I've also tried booting from the recovery partition using Alt and F10 during boot but this only gets as far as the "Please wait a moment" screen and stays there forever.
I've even tried re-installing Vista from the Vista installation DVD but this stops and asks for a driver for the DVD drive and will not carry on without it.
Can anyone suggest any way to get the PC working again - I don't need any of the data on it so don't have to worry about saving any data files.
The thing that is really puzzling me is that I can partly boot from the hard drive but then the hard drive seems to be missing when I boot from the Vista installation DVD.

Hi
This is very strange
How did you try to install the OS from recovery disk?
Did you boot from the CD and did you follow the instruction on the screen?
Or what happens exactly???
Usually the Recovery disk should format the whole HDD and should set the notebook to the factory settings.
Furthermore the Vista is already activated and its not necessary to put any serial keys.
I see in the error message something about Security-Licensing. Im not quite sure what this can be but possibly the could be something wrong with the activating who knows ?:|
But as I said above, the Vista on the recovery disk is already activated.

SharePoint 2010 with SQL Reporting Services 2012 "Installation Error: Could not find SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\110 registry key"

i have a small sharepoint farm "2 servers" (WFE) and SQL Server 2012 ,
i installed rsSharePoint for reporting services , as a read the Reporting services is Application Service with SQL 2012 not as SQL 2008 R2 with SharePoint integrated mode, so after installation when am trying to configure the SQL Server
Reporting Services Application services i got the below error :
"Installation Error: Could not find SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\110 registry key"
any kind of help would be much appreciated .

I'm having the same issue, but to me it seems like the instructions I've seen are all over the place. I already have SP 2013 and SQL 2012 SP 1 installed. I already added the features for Reporting Services - Sharepoint and Reporting Services
Add-in for SharePoint Products. I didn't see the Reporting Service service in CA, so I ran the powershell scripts to add SPRSService and SPRSServiceProxy.
My initial quest, was to get the BI features enabled, which took me on the journey of adding the Report Services, then I got the error.
Then when I read this about installing the BI features
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/querysimon/archive/2012/11/26/installing-the-bi-features-of-sharepoint-2013.aspx, which I already had SQL and SP installed. Do I have to rerun and selct the SQL Server PowerPoint for SharePoint option? I have the PowerPoint
Configuration Tool on my SQL server, I run it and I get PowerPivot for SP 2013 Configuranoi is missing prerequisits: SP 2013 EE is required. Which I have EE.
Is Reporting Services different or in addition to the BI Feature (PowerPivot)?
Have I missed a step?
Thanks for you help.

Need to repair boot camp installation on each sleep/reboot

I Have a Mid-2009 Apple Macbook Pro computer with Windows 7 installed on it. I use the Boot Camp drivers version 3.2. These days i have an issue: every time I put the computer to sleep or reboot it, the boot camp drivers go faulty; the special keys stop working, the keyboard baklight stops working and every setting in the boot camp control panel goes to default. The only solution to this is to use the BC 3.0 installer to repair. Any ideas on how this problem might be resolved?

Ok, here was the rundown of my situation, and the solution:
I partitioned the disk through Bootcamp, tried to install Windows, and got to the point where it asks which partition to install on. It showed one with about 130GB, and that was ALL. So I backed out. Upon reboot, I tried to get back into the Mac OS by holding the Option key, and it wouldn't show me the option to go back - just the boot disk, and the Windows HDD (on which there was nothing yet, and which disappeared as an option on the next reboot).
In speaking to the support line, I formatted my hard drive re-installed, and we suspected the problem was due to the 10GB partition I created - apparently Windows XP needs 15GB to install itself. Maybe it just picked the wrong partition and screwed it up?
I tried the process again, same thing happened. I called the support line again, got someone different, and was informed of my real problem:
------I was using a Windows XP disk I had received with my PC when I bought it a few years ago (an OEM Windows XP disk)-------
Apparently you can't do that for some reason! I was told that my partitioning was ok, and it was the copy of Windows that was screwed up, and I would have to go buy a new version (which I'm not going to do).
Before trying Boot Camp, I had this exact copy of Windows installed through Parallels, and it worked fine - I just stupidly decided to make the switch to Boot Camp and all **** broke lose. Back to Parallels!

Best way to repair a corrupt installation

Hello,
I am trying to fix a problem for a non-technical friend, and I'm fairly new to the Mac myself, so I thought that it would be safest to ask for advice before I begin. It looks like I'm going to have to reinstall the OS, and since my friend can't find the disks for most of her 3rd party software, and she is unsure about her Mac disks, I'd like to try to preserve as much of her old installation as possible. She does have a Time Machine backup on an external drive.
Here is the problem. My friend has a Macbook Pro running Leopard with all updates installed. Safari has suddenly stopped working for her. It appears to launch (the menu bar appears), but no window opens. If she tries to close Safari, an error message appears saying something like "Do you really want to close Safari? 0 tabs are open." Her Safari preferences seem fine, except when I look at plug-ins. For every string in the plug-ins panel there is a message saying "Localized string not found". Her plug-ins folder is empty (I deleted it anyhow, but it didn't help). I uninstalled Safari, deleted her preferences folder, and downloaded and installed a fresh copy, but this didn't help. I did not look at "/library/Internet Plug-Ins", but I'll do so before doing anything more drastic. The folks at the Apple store scratched their heads over this one, but couldn't figure it out. Their recommendation is to reinstall the OS.
So, since she doesn't have everything she needs for a complete reinstall, what is the best way to recover the system with minimum disruption? She has bought a Snow Leopard upgrade, and I'm tempted to just give that a try to see if it fixes the problem. However, I've always believed that upgrading a system with known problems is just asking for more problems.
I thought of trying an archive and install, assuming my friend can find her original disk (or that the Snow Leopard upgrade DVD will let me do this).
This should preserve her preferences, but does it preserve installed applications? I believe that I could use Magration Assistant and get applications back from Time Machine. I have made a Time Machine backup of the system, and I'll probably do a disk image as well before I start.
The safest thing would be an erase and install, but I'm not sure that the Snow Leopard upgrade DVD will permit this. I do have my old Tiger disk from my own Macbook Pro if she can't find her installation disks; I could do a clean Tiger install and then upgrade to Snow Leopard I suppose. I assume that if I did this, I could then pull everything she'll need from Time Machine. Is this correct?
I'd appreciate any suggestions.

If you have a bootable backup (this would be a clone and safer than TM -- use free Carbon Copy Cloner or "Restore" from Disk Utility), you don't have too much to risk, since you can always reverse clone back to the Mac. Just install Snow Leopard over the current Leopard by selecting the upgrade option. Everything should still be there and I would think it would install all the correct files for its version of Safari.
Then use Software Update to see what needs updating, but run those updates separately, _or much better,_ download the standalones from Apple Downloads. You should update the OS either to the current 10.6.6 (if you don't mind having the App Store welded to your system) or to 10.6.5 using the Combo updates. The 10.6.6 has only one minor security patch and there's no emergency to install it right now.
10.6.5 Combo
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1324
10.6.6 Combo
http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1349
10.6 system requirements. (More than 1GB RAM preferable)
-Mac computer with an Intel processor
-1GB of memory
-5GB of available disk space
-DVD drive for installation
Or just reapply the 10.5.8 Combo, which may fill in and fix the corrupted Safari files. (Personally, I would go with the 10.6 upgrade.) Verify and if necessary repair the disk and then repair Permissions before running any update or upgrade.
