SQL Server Express 2012 install error - 0x80070005

Question

OS: Windows 7 - 64 bit Ultimate Service Pack 1;   Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 2.4 GHz;  RAM: 8 GB

SQL Server 2008 R2 has been previously installed.

I have tried to install the 32 bit and 64 bit version of SQL Server Express 2012 on a new installation. I get the same error message except for the "processorArchitecture" description depending on the version.

An error occured during the installation of assembly  'policy.8.0.Microsoft.VC80.CRT,version="8.0.5.0727.4053",pubicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="amd64",type="win32-policy". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x0070005

I have checked the installation log file, but I can't find the reason for the installation failure. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rick

Answer 1

Are you sure you are running 64-bit Windows 7?  Check this way:

Method 1: View System window in Control Panel

1. Click Start
   
   , type system in the Start Search box, and then click system in the Programs list.
2. The operating system is displayed as follows:
   • For a 64-bit version operating system: 64-bit Operating System appears for the System type under System.
   • For a 32-bit version operating system: 32-bit Operating System appears for the System type under System.

Install SQL Server 2012:

Delete EVERYTHING related to SQL Server 2012, and try again:

Answer 2

Do you earlier installed it or Do you have multiple instances of SQL Server installed

Answer 3

ryguy72,

Thanks for the links. I am running 64-bit, but we plan on deploying the 32-bit SQL Express version. I only tried installing the 64 bit version after the 32-bit version failed. I do have an existing SQL Server 2008 R2 version installed. Even though the installer gives you an option for a side-by-side install, I will try removing SQL Server 2008 R2 and then attempt to reinstall Express.  I had a co-worker try to install SQL Express along side SQL Server 2008 R2 and he didn't appear to have any problems going through the dialog boxes; he quit before actually installing though.

Thank you for your reply,

Rick

Answer 4

joydlegend,

Yes, SQL Server 2008 R2 is already installed. I will attempt to delete the existing installation of 2008 R2 before attempting a new install.

Thanks,

Rick

Answer 5

SQL Server 2008 r2 was uninstalled (as much as possible anyway), and attempted to install SQL Express 2012. I got the same error message as above with the "processorArchitecture="AMD64"; though the log file also show "processorArchitecture="x86" multiple times as well. Still looking for answers....

Amber,

Thanks for your reply.  I had already attempted the MS fix for the redistributable file by running "vcredist_x64.exe", but it didn't work either.  I was also having a problem getting Visual Studio 10 SP1, but that finally worked.  Below is a segment of the Error log file where the error message is coming from including several lines before; it's trying to patch some dll files that don't exist....

Answer 8

Hi Database_Jitters

HRESULT value 0x80070005 means "access denied". Typically this happens due to a permission (ACL) problem on one of the directories under \windows\.

I suggested looking at any anti-virus or anti-spyware software because they tend to lock down files and folders to prevent malicious programs from installing
For more information, please refer to How to fix some 1935 errors with HRESULT 0x80070005 (access denied) when installing the .NET Framework :
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/archive/2005/08/16/452523.aspx

Meanwhile an unsuccessful install of prior Windows Updates OR Custom MSI packages  could have left over faulty registry keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMPONENTS due to this error. So the solution for Error 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC90.ATL,version, please refer to this KB.

Additional, you can take a look at here as the same scenario.

Answer 9

After battling to install SQL 2012 on a new windows PC with Windows 7 Ultimate (ultimate pain in the neck), trying the 64 bit downloadable version of express, I gave up.  We have 1 dedicated SQL server running 2012, but I cannot access it with my new developer box and sql 2008. So I decided to dump SQL 2012 and put the server back to 2008. (it said I did not have the latest service pack, but I know I do).

Why does installation get worse with every upgrade? I installed SQL 2008 no problems. I have an installation of mysql as well, which give  me no problems. You guys are making me want to learn more about Mysql and less about SQL server 2012.  You should let anybody with any version of a windows download SQL 2012, since its a developer version only.geeze.

Answer 10

Thanks man it worked for me too.
