Visual Studio Beta 2 fails with error
I had earlier tried to install VS 2005 Beta 2 and it had failed due to some unknown reason.
While trying to repair the VS 2005 Beta 2 Architect Edition, i can successfully install the .NET Framework 2.0 and restart. However, while installing MSXML 6.0 Parser in the next step, the setup stops and asks for locating the CD that contains runmsi.exe.
The DVD doesn't seem to have the file and hence I have to abort the installation. A search on my local machine did not yield any such file on my hard disks.
i have already run the clean install tool mentioned earlier on this forum at:http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=17416
I am installing this on a WinXP SP2 machine that had prior installtions of VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005. Installation of SQL Server 2005 June CTP is already done on my machine.
The entire log of the installation is availablehere.
Any advice?
Regards
Abhishek
