Uninstalling SQL2000 has broken SQL7!

  • I wonder if any gurus here can suggest a solution.

    I use SQL7 Analysis Services to serve up a cube to one user only.

    I instaled the 90 day trial of SQL2000 and when it expired I uninstalled it.

    Unfortuantely now I cannot connect to the server in Analysis Services of SQL7 - I get the message "Incompatible Repository"

    I've tried uninstalling SQL7 and Analysis Services, running regclean and re-installing, but I still get the same error.

    Has anyone come across this before. MSKB only gives one example of this error and it isn;t related to my problem.

    1000 thanks in advance,

    Rob

  • When you say you installed 90 SQL 2000, did you do the upgrade or instance method? If upgrade then you cannot read the repository in 7 as the structure was updated to 2000's. You may need to install 2000 on the machine and 7 on another then move data to the other machine thru the 2000 interface.
