Hi, I am trying to create a service consisting of one VM and having SQL Server 2008 R2 installed via a SQL Profile. I have looked at and followed the instructions in a couple of links that were provided to me by a forum member but cannot get past this error:
Error (22042)The service (New SQL Server 2008 R2 Deployment) was not successfully deployed. Review the event log to determine the cause before you take
corrective action.
Recommended Action
The deployment can be restarted by retrying the job.
Error (21909)
The script command exit code (2226388992) matched the regular expression ([^0]) that is specified in the failure policy. Standard output log
data: "The following error occurred:
Instance ID MSSQL10_50.INITINSTALL for product SQL Server Database Services is already in use. Each SQL Server instance must have a unique
instance ID.
Error result: -2068578304
Result facility code: 1204
Result error code: 0
Please review the summary.txt log for further details
Microsoft (R) SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup 10.50.1600.01Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved."
Recommended Action
If the script command's job restart action is set to restart, then the script will be re-executed. Otherwise, the script command will be
skipped when the job is restarted, in which case corrective action should be taken to mitigate the effects of the script command failure.
Error (20400)
1 parallel subtasks failed during execution.
Error (21952)
Application deployment failed for one or more tiers or application hosts in the service (New SQL Server 2008 R2 Deployment). Check job logs to
get more information on the failed operation.
Recommended Action
Check error messages and retry the operation if needed.
It appears to me that the error is saying the Instance ID that I am using in the SQL Profile, which by the way is the same Instance ID I used when I followed the instructions to create the SQL Server Sysprepped, is already in use. So it seems to me this error is saying maybe I should not use an Instance ID when creating the SQL Profile? I am not sure at this point and appreciate any help you could provide!
