Can't install SSMS on SQL server.

  • I am trying to install SQL server management studio on the server. I had SSMS express on their and uninstalled that and then installed the client components from the install CD. The message I am getting is "an installation package for the product microsoft SQL Server 2005 cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package sqlrun_tools.msi". I tried rebooting the server thinking maybe there was something left from the SSMS express software but still keep getting the same error.

    WHat could be causeing this error?

    Thanks

  • I was able to find a thread that said try running the sqlrun_tools.msi from disk 2. When I tried that it got to a point where it asked for another disk. Not sure what it is looking for but it wasn't disk 1.
