Whenever I try to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition on my Vista Ultimate x64 platform I get error 29506. All I could find on the web was that this is probably due to an access control problem. I have tried installing it as the local administrator, as a member of domain admins, and as the domain administrator. All get the same error. My domain is a Small Business Server domain. This may be part of the problem, but I can't imagine how.
When trying to force access to the domain administrator, I also seem to get an access problem.
Any suggestions?
First off I would try the sp1 version, but other then that the SP2 is the next supported release on Vista, there is a ctp release but the final release has not been made...
When installing VS Express you need to run the install under elevated permissions, I do this by running a command prompt as an administrator (Right clicking on the icon and selelcting run as admin), then run the exec by using the command prompt.
