problem with installshield

I don't know what I did, but I keep getting the message that I can't install a program or even uninstall one. I think I deleted part of my installsheild. I have tried to find out where and how to repair it, but I haven't so far. Please help!!!!! Rita

I guess your reason for asking here is that you're trying to install an older version of SQL Server?

InstallShield isn't a Microsoft product. If it's broken somehow, you should start by getting it fixed. Here's a link that should help:

Puts the Patriot Actors right in the Windows Control Panel . . .

from Corel.com support site search (one supposes it will soon disappear -- this dreadful thing is unaccountably included in WordPerfect):

"If you wish to remove the InstallShield Update Manager from your workstation, you will need to download and install the Update Manager uninstaller from the following location: http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q111006 ."

I have been trying to install a PC Studio for a mobile phone and receive error message "empty temporary folder, check internet connection then try to run Setup again"

I found a fix in Article ID 311203 recommending deleting the InstallShield File in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Install Shield folder but article says this only applies to Windows 98, 95 and Millennium. Can I use with Windows XP?

problem with guest account in the tempdb

When i restart my database server, guest login is getting deleted automatically from tempdb. it shudn't happen. please can anyone suggest me solution for my problem.
thanx and regards
kiranthe tempdb is recreated every time the sql service is restarted from a copy of model. i might create a guest account in model to correct the issue but I am not sure why you are having people log into tempdb directly.|||Hi Sean Roussy
thanx a lot for ur reply. I added guest user in sysusers table of model database. and i restarted the server and tested the tempdb, now guest user is not deleted. It works well..

thank you.
kiran|||Note that creating a guest user in the model database is a HUGE security hole, not very far beyond removing the password from the sa login. It makes all kinds of attacks trivial against your server if you ever grant anyone the ability to write queries against your server.

-PatP|||True, I agree with Pat in this matter as the security is most important for a DBA.

If this is a development environment then you can say it is not an issue, but if you can explain your need then there will be a way to accomplish.sql

Problem with deleting connection from Connection Manager

Hallo,

I have deleted one of my file connection from Connection Manager (and

Executed ProcessTask which used it), however

trying to load the package I always get the error:

"Error loading MyPackage.dtsx: The connection "MyDeletedConnectionName" is not found.
This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found."

I tried to Clean, Rebulid my project, but it doesn't help.

Does anybody know, how to solve it? Where this reference is saved?

Thank you.

Anna

Try to open the package XML in a text editor and look for that connection name.

HTH,

Bob
