Asked By Ram Krish on 12-Jun-12 11:17 AM
Hi,

 I installed Sharepoint 2010 server in Windows 7 but Its not installed properly by throwing error while running the config wizard" MSSQL$Sharepoint" database service not able to run.

Now I want to uninstall the Shareppoint server , but nothing is happening after clicking Uninstall.
Note: I installed SP2010 server as Standalone

Your help is much helpful.

Did you install SharePoint 2010 using the traditional setup wizard or have you used any Powershell script for the setup?
I would suggest you fix the problem with SQL Server instance and reinstall SharePoint 2010.

Is the MSSQL$Sharepoint instance created in your Control Panel -> Services?

hi,

You can install SharePoint with a local account, i had to do this on a couple of machines.

Reference from-

http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/15757/failed-to-start-the-database-services-mssqlsharepoint

Solution

Rerun the SQL Server Express Installer and create a Instance called SHAREPOINT

After that, go to Start > Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products > SharePoint 2010 Products Configuration Wizard and run through the wizard.

Try these steps also-


  1. Go to “regedit” through run command, 
  2. browse thru “HKLM_Local_Machine/Software/Microsoft/Shared Tools/Web Server Extensions/12.0/WSS/”. 
  3. Then change the value of attribute named “ServerRole” from SINGLESERVER to APPLICATION
  4. Then save it
