Any one not been able to install the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer
Components? (SQLserver2005_DTS.msi) I can’t find the answer on the web, so
I’m turning to you guys. I’m testing the upgrade to SQL 2005, and we have
about a dozen DTS packages. None of them real complicated, mostly just data
warehouse loads from one database to another.
I’m putting the client tools and such on my local PC, and can’t get the DTS
tool to install. I just get “The System administrator has set policies to
prevent this installation.”
I’ve tried as a domain admin, local adim, local user. Checked all the stuff
with Group Policy, both local and domain, and can’t find an answer.
I still have the SQL 2000 client tools installed, if that makes a difference.
Thanks in advance.

I have installed this component many times. It breaks down SQL Server 2000
EM but after installing SP4 everything is working.

The point is to open/edit/debug DTS packages via SSMS

Thanks. I understand the 'point' is to open/edit/debug is SSIS. My point is
I can't because it won't install the DTS Designer component.

Have you tried Windows Installer Cleanup Utility?
Some corrupt information in the registry??

Yes, I have. Tried everything I could find doing a search on the web
yesterday and still haven't found a solution. I uninstalled the SQL 2000
client tools this morning thinking maybe that was it but it still won't
install.

I don't know if this applies to your situation, but check password policy. I couldn't upgrade from SS2000 to SS2005
because one of the scripts has a hard-coded "Yukon90_" password in it and my company has policy of minimum length of 10
characters. Has something to do with SS2005 self-certifying something in msdb with encryption by password. Supposedly
SP2 has the same issue. We temporarily removed password policy and upgrade and SP2 went without a hitch.
I don't know if the problem exists with the designer components because I also installed that while the password policy
was not in force.
