SYMPTOMS
If you click Cancel on either the BackOffice Server (BOS) Setup or Small Business Server (SBS) Setup dialog box during the installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2000 components, you receive the following message:

Are you sure you want to cancel setup? Yes or No

If you click Yes, you receive the following message:

Setup cannot be canceled during installation of this component. Setup will be canceled after the current component has finished installing.

The SBS or BOS Setup Wizard ends after the installation of SQL Server, which seems to be fully installed, and the MSSQLServer service starts. After you restart the computer, if Setup restarts, SQL is listed as &quot;installed.&quot; If you expand SQL Server to view the child components, the Analysis Services and/or English Query components are not installed. If you canceled Setup during the installation of Analysis Services, only English Query does not install successfully.

The SBS and BOS Setup Wizard do not automatically complete the installation of the other SBS and BOS components or server applications that you selected for installation at the start of the Setup Wizard. Installation of SBS and BOS components or server applications completes successfully for those components for which the installation order in the Setup Wizard is prior to that of SQL Server 2000. If the SBS/BOS component or server application installation order falls after SQL Server 2000 in the Setup Wizard, the components are not installed.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, in BOS or SBS Setup, set the action for the SQL child components that were not installed (Analysis Services and/or English Query), to Install, and then continue with Setup.
