Unable to open SQL Server Management Studio Express CTPI have installed the .Net Framework 2.0 and the MSXML 6.0 Parser and then the
SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP app but when I go to the icon and click on it to open the app the hour glass displays for a split second and then goes away. The SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP never displays. I have uninstalled both the SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP and the SQL Server Express app but nothing works. I have been having the same problem, exactly. If you are able to resolve
your problem, would appreciate you're sharing it with me. Thanks, Bill...

7. There is a new Management Studio Express CTP download available at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=82AFBD59-57A4-455E-A2D6-1D4C98D40F6E&displaylang=en. This update fixes the defect where installing the full Books Online documentation prevented Management Studio Express from starting. With the update, Management Studio Express and Books Online no longer interfere with each other. To update Management Studio Express CTP: 1) Uninstall Management Studio Express CTP from your machine. 2) Clear your browser's download cache. If you are using Internet Explorer 6, you can do this by starting Internet Explorer, clicking the Tools | Options menu item, and then clicking the "Delete Files..." button in the "Temporary Internet Files" section. 3) Download and run SQLServer2005_SSMSEE.msi (or SQLServer2005_SSMSEE_x64.msi) from the URL listed above -- Show quoteGail Erickson [MS] SQL Server Documentation Team This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights "wheelerc6" <wheele***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:F0A57ABA-31AA-406D-9841-93916C7190CD@microsoft.com... >I did figure it out.

7 - apparently. The file that your link points to is the exact same size and has the same digital signiture date as the original. Installing the file from your link does the same thing as the original msi file - even after following your instructions "To update Management Studio Express CTP" Does anyone have an updated link to the updated CTP? Can someone provide info on the stats of the updated msi (such as file size and date) so that we can be sure we have the newest msi? Thanks in advance.

31,404,032. I don't know what the date of the msi file is because when I copy it from the web site, it puts the current date on it. (The copy I downloaded today has a Created date of 12/13/05, Modified date of 12/13/05, and an Accessed date of 12/13/05) Also, when was the file replaced? I downloaded it the first time on 11/15/05. What are the file sizes of the two versions? What are the digital signiture dates of the two versions. Thanks for your help.

If I do have the correct version (and always had) then do you have any suggestions on how to install both Books on Line and SSMS on the same computer? Thanks again.

The
updated file was posted on 11/11 and is 31,401,984 bytes in size. Based on what you report as the file size and timestamp, you do have the old file. One of the developers for Management Studio Express informed me that there is a problem with the download center, that is, not all the servers used by the download center got the updated msi file. There is an open service request to get this fixed, but in the meantime here's a potential workaround : rename (or delete) the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\Tools\Shell key. This will allow Management Studio Express to run with Books Online, but will break Management Studio(the full version, not the express version) if it's also installed. -- Show quoteGail Erickson [MS] SQL Server Documentation Team This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights "Wade" <wnederv***@preinnewhofdonotreply.com> wrote in message news:OIBMriBAGHA.4012@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... > The digital signiture date on both are 11/03/05.

fine (luckly in my case I don't have Management Studio - full verion installed). Just FYI, the path to the key is HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\-- note the "90" in the path - at least that is where it is in my registry. Also, once the CTP is running, you can rename the key back and CTP continues to run - until you exit. Will there be a post some other way to find out when the download center has fixed this issue? Again, I thank you for your help.

I tried downloading this today and still end up with the old file (31,404,032 bytes.) It doesn't appear like download center has addressed the issue yet? Thanks, Lee The folks at the download center said they verified that the correct files
are on all the download servers and they cleared their caches. Theoretically, you should be getting the new file. If you wouldn't mind, would you please clear your IE cache and try again and let me know what happens? I can reopen the service request and the results of clearing your cache would be useful information for them.

As soon as I uninstall that, the CTP works. I even tried the 11/11/2005 CTP install, as indicated in later posts, but still had the same problem. I'll wait till this is ironed out to download the books online again.  |
