Installer MOF Error
The MOF compiler could not connect with the WMI server. This either because of a semantic error such as an incompatibility with the existing WMI repository or an actual error such as the failure of the WMI server to start
Cause:
This error pops up due to failed install attempts
Resolution:
Log file
MSI (s) (CC:20) [21:39:50:082]: Specified instance {FA7394B8-CE65-4F9E-AC99-F372AD365424} via transform :InstID01.mst;:InstName01.mst is already installed. MSINEWINSTANCE requires a new instance that is not installed
1. Open log file and copy the instance id “FA7394B8-CE65-4F9E-AC99-F372AD365424” from it and put it in following command and execute it.
msiexec /I { FA7394B8-CE65-4F9E-AC99-F372AD365424} REMOVE=ALL
2. Search the instance id in the windows registry and delete it where ever it present.
3. Reboot the node
4. Try installing SQL2008
in my opinion there are only two reasons of failed installtion of sql server.
ReplyDeleteFirst you have a virus infected windows.so first scan windows drive with some best antivirus like 360security or panda global protection etc.
if your windows is not infected by any virus then there is problem of sqlserver
installation setup files.Then get another new copy of sqlserver to install.
And i hope problem will be solved. Thanks Rana Imran
