Hi,

I have did update of Connect 7 to Connect 7 SP1 on various servers but i have 2 servers that are giving the following notification after running the SP1's setup.exe and selecting the language.

ScreenShot

Here is the URL in the Notification
http://www.adobe.com/go/msde_upgrade_en

In short:
It says i need to upgrade the embeded MSSQL server to 2005. But Connect 7 already uses MSSQL 2005 and the technote is about upgrading from 2000 to 2005. This only happened in 2 servers upgrade process and the others upgrade went flawless.

Does anyone having the same issue or the have the solution?

    Hello,

    Have you called Connect support on this issue? Try uprading the Express version of SQL to a new release - in my experience, it doesn't go over well. You must backup your Connect database, uninstall the Express Edition, and either install the latest version of 2005 with SP2 (there is an installer available from Microsoft with this) or let Connect install it, then restore your database.
