hi Michael, thanks for your reply. that is wat i got from Event viewer and same from verbose log, which is as below
CreateDatabase: Error 0x80040e14: failed to create to database: Akash_DB, error: CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors. Error 26201. Error -2147217900: failed to create SQL database: Akash_DB, error detail: CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.. MSI (s) (8C!84) [20:01:24:015]: Product: Akash_WixProject -- Error 26201. Error -2147217900: failed to create SQL database: Akash_DB, error detail: CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.. Action ended 20:01:24: InstallFinalize. Return value 3. this is exact what i got from verbose i am not gettin anything to support this... there is no info more than this in eventvwr. Please suggest me any other way to tackle this. or else i would be left to last option of using DTF CA for executing sqlscripts. regards, Akash On Thu, Mar 12, 2009 at 11:04 AM, Michael Osmond <mosm...@baytech.com.au>wrote: > Akash > > First check the application event log (for a failure error from > MSInstaller), the full text of the SQL error is there (I am assuming > that the "Check related errors.." means you are reading this error from > the error dialog). > > I suspect there is an MDF or LDF file hanging around in the SQL Server > default data folders with the same name as the database you are trying > to create.
