Take care people... >From another list... First impression ... this is the worst sql service pack for years. After installing and testing the CTP-SP1 build 2040 on 4 development and test servers for 4 weeks with no errors, we decided to test the official SP1 build 2047. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=cb6c71ea-d649-4 7ff-9176-e7cac58fd4bc&DisplayLang=en The details: Server A (32bit Win2003 and 32bit SQL2005): Installation runs smoothly, no errors on first sight. But then discovered, that sql is still reporting to be build 2040 (CTP-SP1) and we believe it, because it's the only test server which is fully functional (Integration Services) at the moment. But installer said SP1 Installation successful ... ??? Server B (32bit Win2000 and 32bit SQL2005): Aborted with Client Components installation. Found out that 630MB free on drive C isn't enough. After clearing 800MB on C, installation runs with no errors. After rebooting can't connect to Integration Services (HRESULT: 0x8002801D, TYPE_E_LIBNOTREGISTERED Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSRuntimeWrap) :-( Server C (64bit Win2003 and 64bit SQL2005): First installation aborted with a failure on Integration Services, second try after a reboot says everything ok, no errors. But after a second reboot Integration Services service can't start. (The SQL Server Integration Services service failed to start due to the following error: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.) :-( Server D (32bit Win2003 and 32bit SQL2005): Same as Server B, aborted with Client Components installation. But even after the successful second install has now a mixture installation with SP1 (build 2047) and CTP-SP1 (build 2040). After rebooting can't connect to Integration Services (HRESULT: 0x8002801D, TYPE_E_LIBNOTREGISTERED Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSRuntimeWrap) :-( Well, after this experience we will stay on CTP-SP1 (build 2040) until there's a usable SP1. Does anybody else tried the SP1 already? What are your experiences?
