I already have sql server 2005 running on my computer (Win XP SP2) and I have been trying to install the Sql server 2008 R2 version. (I've downloaded in last week.)
While I'm installing, I got the following msg box :
The following eror has occurred:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
Click 'Retry' to retry the failed action, or click 'Cancel' to cancel this action and continue setup.
At that time, Installation progress show "ASConfigAction_install_postmsi_Cpu32".
So I assumed something is wrong in SSAS installation.
I just click "Cancel" in the above msg box as I have no choice.
After completed, it show "Failed" in "Analysis Services".
Then I restarted my PC.
When I try to start SSAS service manually, I got the following msg box.
The SQL Server Analysis Services (Instance_Name) service failed to start due to the following error:
Error 1053 : The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
Actually I just want to try CUBE in this version. (my deadline is coming friday.) :(
Please advise & thanks in advance.
