Hi

I have tried to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP3 to the Backup Exec SQL instance (as per: http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/327649.htm)

but it just errors with:

Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition -- Error 2259. The installer has encountered an unexpected error. The error code is 2259. Database:  Table(s) Update failed

I have tried via Microsoft Update as well, but it just fails with the same error.

Has anyone come across this before and know how to resolve the problem please?

Thanks.

Please check log:

Also, see if any helpful information in event logs.

Thanks

I have two 64-bit servers that I am trying to run this on but stalls in the install process  - it appears to be asking for ASP.net for 32 bit (for reporting) but I can't get this to install on a 64 bit machine
