VSS issue - windows 2003 Service Pack 2

[Guest Sabo, Eric]

If I do a "vssadmin list writers" nothing ever comes back to the command

prompt.

 

Is there a way to reset the volume shadow copy service, I did do a restart

on the service.

Other than the service, not that I'm aware of. Do you have the VSS

roll-up installed? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940349/en-us

Yes

 

I think I know the answer but cannot find out how to.

 

How does one set SQL 2005 writer as the default on the system ?

SQL is not my forte and I wish I could point you to the newsgroup that

would best answer this but I can't find one for SQL. Perhaps a new

post: "Server 2003: How does one set SQL 2005 writer as the default on

the system?" as a question and see who responds.

It is strange I have the SQL writer enable and started

 

but when doing a vssadmin list writers - produces nothing.

 

Do you have any ideas on how to troubleshot the writers at this point?

Yes, in that circumstance you are right. Sadly, I've gone as far as I

can with helping you.

I am going to uninstall BE 11 D and the SQL 2005 Express.
