I want to know how to fully uninstall MSSQL 2005.
I've been using the Trial version of SQL Server Reporting Services for a while now. My company finally purchased the software from an online distributor, and for support of Oracle, we needed to upgrade to MSSQL 2005 SP2. Anyway, the "full" version of the software would not install, as it was already installed (It seems the installer doesn't recognize what was installed was the trial version). So I tried uninstalling MSSQL 2005, and everything related (including visual studio), I can not seem to get it reinstalled. The error is a vague error message, and when i click the link to get more information, the usual "no information about this error was found" error.

I actually discovered that it was a problem with the installer, when installing the "Full Version". I discovered, since the product was downloaded, instead of delivered on CD/DVD, that the installer was looking for information in a path that was not correct. There was a MS Knowledge Base article on the topic. Thanks for your reply, tho
I had the exact same problem, and this article helped me clean up all the related files from my system and do a fresh install of both Visual Studio and the SQL client components. Give it a try and let me know if it helps you out:

I'm having trouble with the debugger when trying to run a simple SSIS project involving importing a small sample CSV file into SQL Server.
I have searched StackOverflow with "debugger error Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration" and looked at all the search results.
It looks like someone else had the same issue with VS2015 about a year ago, but it never got resolved.
Microsft SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2015 giving debugging error
I've tried looking at the Event Viewer and generated Visual Studio Logs but there's nothing there.
I get 2 error messages when I try to execute the SSIS job.
Error 1:

The debugger is not properly installed.

I had a lot of trouble getting SSDT installed and working with Visual Studio 2017 and had to resort to the solution here to get it working.
SSDT installation issue (Failed to execute EXE package.)
Has anyone come across this issue and manage to overcome it?
In the meantime, I will try reinstalling the packages in the payload folder and see if that will fix this issue.
Excuse my necromancy
I know this is an old-ish question, but there are still enough people out there that haven't transitioned to VS 2019 yet for it to be relevant. I ran into this problem again for the second time, but it was a very long time in between occurrences. I completely forgot what the issue and solutions were.
Long answer
I have documented it all here.
Short answer
Here is the short version of what I documented:
Don't rush to uninstall/reinstall Visual Studio 2017
Very carefully read the blue box on the VS 2017 SSDT download page. This is critical.
Download SSDT for Visual Studio 2017
Run the installer and pay attention to the installer to see if it warns you about older extensions or installers that may exist already. Follow the instructions provided.
Assuming you have this problem, close the installer.
Uninstall the Visual Studio SSIS, SSRS and SSAS extensions (VSIX)
Run the SSDT installer - make sure it is warning free
Proceed with the installation
This should work and solve the problem, but this is a complex issue so I cannot make a guarantee. This has worked for me twice now on two entirely separate machines (work and home).
I did able to solve the issue with SQL server 2016 and Visual studio 2015 and respective SSDT 2015. I made sure I install every time as administrator (Right click on EXE and Run as Administrator).
I followed these steps:
I uninstalled all SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server 2017, Visual Studio 2017 with SSDT.
Deleted the folders
C:\Users\me\AppData\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0
C:\Users\me\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0
Installed SQL Server 2016 (as administrator)
Installed SQL Server Management Studio latest version (as administrator)
Installed Visual Studio 2015 (for me VS 2015 gave some missing DLL and I did repair - it started working fine)
Finally I installed Visual Studio Data Tools for 2015.
Please find the exes for installing VS2015, SSDT-2015 and SQL Server 2016 from here and you can also download them from official sites through search.
and SSMS from here
I hope this will be useful to someone.
I solved this issue by filling in the required fields in the Execute SQL Task. I was missing the value in the SQL Statement field.
The other way I got rid of this error is to set the "DelayValidation" property from False to True. But that is only a workaround until you fix the real issue.
This page was also helpful.

DelayValidation <-- find this property in Control Flow tasks
ValidateExternalMetadata <-- find this property in Data Flow tasks
I was using VS2019 for SSIS. Just go to Debug and use option: start without debugging.
If you have to see the error where it gets failed then read logs coming in command prompt.
I am trying to open a solution file in Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate that includes an Integration Services project (.dtproj). Unfortunately, the migration failed for reasons that are slightly baffling to me.
The migration report contains the following error:
RecommenderJobs.dtproj: The application which this project type is based on was not found. Please try this link for further information: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?prd=12395&pver=11&sbp=ProjectTypeDeprecated&plcid=0x409&clcid=0x409&ar=MSDN&sar=ProjectCompatibility&o1=159641D6-6404-4A2A-AE62-294DE0FE8301
Unfortunately, the link appears to be dead, so that's no help.
I also received the following error message when I tried to open this in Visual Studio 2012:
I've tried opening this solution in both Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate and Visual Studio 2013 Premium (which is why I tagged both). Both are on Update 5. I already tried updating all of my extensions and updates, even ones that seem like they wouldn't be directly relevant to the problem (like Visual Studio's Office tools).
I found a similar question on Microsoft's forum. The suggestion there was to upgrade my version of SSIS to the latest version. I tried to install SSDT for VS2013 as suggested, but the install failed:
When I checked the logs, it had the following error:
Error 0x80070666: Cannot install a product when a newer version is installed.
I do, in fact, have a different version installed, but it's not actually newer as far as I can tell (in fact, it launches in the Visual Studio 2010 shell), so I'm a little confused by this. The version information is below:
Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer
Version 11.0.5058.0
Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Designers
Version 11.0.5058.0
I do also have tools related to SQL Server 2012 installed.
Based on what I've read in other posts, I'd expect to see the SQL Server Data Tools in "Add/Remove Programs," but it's not. Does anyone know why that might be?
I've also seen related questions for other types of projects, such as for a PowerShell project. (Obviously, my question has nothing to do with Powershell, but the OP there was receiving the same exact error message for a different project type). Unfortunately, the suggestions on that post didn't seem all that helpful - for example, the accepted answer there involved completely uninstalling and reinstalling Visual Studio, which would be a major pain to say the least. I'm also not all that confident that that would work for me since this problem occurs in two separate versions of Visual Studio.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I could try?
You likely need to install both Integration services and Business Intelligence for Visual Studio (BIDS). You can do it launching SQL Server Setup and adding features to your current SQL Server Instance.
Have a look at this one: https://guruprasadv.wordpress.com/2009/06/17/opening-ssis-package-in-visual-studio/
BIDS is the IDE (integrated into Visual Studio) that allows you to drag and drop the components and create the SSIS packages. From SQL Server 2014 on wards you won't see BIDS anymore packaged in the SQL Server Setup, so you will have to install it independently. If you need it for VS 2013 here you have the link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42313
I recently installed the client tools for SQL Server 2016. This seemed to hose the COM classes for SSIS in my VS 2013 install, as well as my SSMS 2014 install.
I get a COM class not found {guid} error. I don't have a screenshot because I have since uninstalled VS 2013. I've uninstalled SQL Server 2014 as well. The problem is I'm pretty sure SSDTBI is still installed somewhere, and it does not have an entry in the control panel.
I don't want to waste my time installing VS 2013 again if those templates and everything are still going to be there.
Running the SSDTBI installer shows the SSDTBI features as grayed out (meaning they are already installed) and offers no option to remove.
Does anyone know what files are installed and their locations? I really would like to do a clean install.
Thank you.
Well - After googling some more and seeing all the code for command line installs - I had a revelation that worked:
setup.exe /ACTION=UNINSTALL
Did the trick.
I tried to install the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Report Authoring Extension (with SQL Server Data Tools support) after I successfully installed the Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 but an error came out saying I didn´t have the requisites, which was Visual Studio 2010.... and I have 2012... so, I downloaded the 2015 version, and once I tried to install it, after the updates and some downloads the setup does, the error: Action Microsoft.crm.setup.shared.analyzerbase+collectaction failed appeared and it wouldn't let me go any further.
I found this article but is not exactly the same error:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2988630
And it lead me to delete some register files.... which is not always the best practice. If I could find something better.
I'm running Windows 8.1.
Anyhelp would be appreciated.
Ok..... I found the solution, as it is documented in this link:
I took a chance and deleted the specified registry.
"Expand the Windows Registry tree to the following registry directory:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\0EF1E6B4EFCDA2649B26A424D56DAACD"
The installation ran smoothly afterwards. Thanks for your time.
I got encountered this error while uninstall the MSCRM and I searched a lot but anything not helped.
At last I got resolved this issue when stopped the Microsof CRM Asynchronous Service from service.msc
In the past, I installed Visual Studio 2010. With that comes SQL Server.
Now I installed this:Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
Now, upon starting, I get this screen:
And it doesn't matter what Server name I enter, nothing works.
I've tried installing SQL Server 2008 Enterprise(I can get that via MSDNAA), but that fails totally, giving me this error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Setup

There is no help, I can click retry as much as I want, nothing changes. I went to the file itself, and Windows says I should check if it is a valid installer file.
And that's my story. I need to get this up and running, and it's all going against me. Can anyone help?
Oops, I have the same problem [1]!
Though I did not investigate the issue
(since I do not need now VS2010 or SQL Server Express)
You can find helpful the answer to my [2] which was reported helpful to resolve the problem by others.
I am afraid it should be reported as bug to MS Connect, though I do not have time and desire to invest time in investigation. Anyway, when MS teams cannot resolve something they close bugs "by design" or "not reproduced"
Since there is no channel to report bugs on SQL Server 2005 xxx (or VS2008), for which the reports are closed, it should be reported in VS2010 board.
Give link if you report, I shall upvote the bug and mark it as reproduced by one more.
