Hello at all,

my situatoin:
SBS2003 with SP2, Exchange 2003 SP2, BESx 4.1.3 to be installed.

First of all, I created the BESAdmin User and set the permissions.

Unfortunately, the BES-Setup fails: the setup is not able to create the MSSQL$BESMGMT instance. I also tried to set it up manually using a new MSDE instance... it also failed.

Now, I installed Microsoft SQL Management 2005 and don't know, how to set up an new SQL instance.

Can you help me?

Thank you very much and
Best Regards,

patrick
