Frequently Asked Questions
What usually causes unhandled errors in the SSIS Wizard?
Unhandled errors in the SQL Server Integration Services wizard are typically caused by missing system prerequisites (like the correct version of .NET Framework), corrupted installation media, or insufficient administrative privileges during setup.
Where can I find SQL Server installation logs?
By default, SQL Server installation logs are saved in the 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\[Version Number]\Setup Bootstrap\Log' directory. Reviewing the 'Summary.txt' file in this folder can help identify the root cause of the error.
Can I fix this error by repairing the SQL Server installation?
Sometimes. You can attempt to fix corrupted files by running the SQL Server Installation Center, selecting 'Maintenance' from the left-hand menu, and clicking on 'Repair' to fix the existing instance.
