Installed symantec backup exec 12.5 on a win2008 server x64 .
Installing the embedded sql express didn't work cause errors on different language ( server = dutch ), so used the existing sql 2005 server ( ms navision ) .
With sql manager i saw a new created database BEDB .
Installing backup exec 12.5 sp2 didn't help.
Tried repair / uninstall / reinstall.

All i find is about repairing .net 2.0 but the server has already .net 3.5 sp1 installed.
