Error installing Report Pack - 5.Nov.2008 10:36:18 AM

hi,

Just installed NSS 8 with activation key - all working fine.
Tried installing Report Pack but it fails at the SQL Server selection point.


NSS8 is on a new installation of Win2K3 server.
The server also hosts WSUS and has been patched to the hilt.

I installed MSDE under a new instance called GFI_DB and specified this as the database when installing NSS8.

When I try installing the Report Pack I get to Database Selection and pick: Use LANguard NSS 8 MS SQL Server/MSDE database.

Next screen is SQL Server selection where I can select the NSS server name from the list and tick Use Windows authentication.

When I click Next it tries to connect to the database and fails with the error:
LANGuard N.S.S. 8 database does not exist on the specified SQL server.

I haven't installed any other instance of SQL however WSUS may have been configured to use some sort of version of SQL.

How do I get Report Pack to point to the GFI_DB instance of MSDE when doing the install?
Or should I scrap everything and start from scratch again - if so what do I specify as the database when installing NSS8?

Thanks!

Never mind just resolved this myself.

Where it asks to specify the SQl server enter <servername>\<instance>
i.e BELGFI1\GFI_DB
