Guest KDawg44 Posted June 23, 2008 Posted June 23, 2008 Hello, We are trying to install and configure WSUS on a server that has SQL Server on it. We do not want to use the SQL server instance so we wanted to install MSDE for the WSUS. We are receiving an error when we try to install MSDE: A strong SA password is required for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to supply the same. Is this a conflict between SQL Server and the MSDE on the box? Can they both be on there? Thanks. Kevin
