Curious, is there any other software installed on the system? In particular, I am wondering if the Windows Internal Database (aka SQL Server 2005 Embedded Edition) is installed on the server as well.

Hi Lynn,
Nope we only have one instance of SQL on this server. This is our ERP server and is dedicated only to our ERP software and SQL database installation

See Lynn's question. Very valid.
Other than that it certainly seems like some reinstalling would be the next steps in order to get those working.

By the way, did you get the "done" message at the end of the configuration run or did it fail?

I just wanted to be sure. We have WSS installed on one of our development servers, and I have to shutdown the Windows Internal Database to run the Surface Area Configuration on the instance of SQL Server 2005 (default instance) when changes need to be made (which is not all that often but it is a rbitb).

Hi jsheldon,

Unfortunately I have not...and I cannot reinstall as this is our production ERP system. I guess I will just have to use these remotely or via sp_configure proc...
I would be interested in resolving this though...it did work in the past...

I too am seeing the same problem. THe SQL configuration manager and the Surface Area Config are not connecting. In addition to that, my mgmt studio will open and connect, however after that if you try to expand a folder or click on anything, I simply get a 'busy' error. All of these tools worked fine previously. If anyone solves this please post.
