GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install SQL 2008 Express R2 (non-R2 is no longer available).
2. Install EMMA.
3.Program crashes on boot splash screen.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected the program to start correctly, gives this error message in the log 
file:

Essentially, I don't believe it can see/activate the newer version, 2008 R2, 
for some reason.  

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Latest non-beta version of EMMA (1.5.1.0), SQL Express 2008 R2 and Windows 7 
Ultimate.

Please provide any additional information below.

I previously had SQL Express 2008 on my computer but had uninstalled it, the 
executable and most attached/associated programs are gone however there's still 
some 'crap' that remains.

SQL 2008 R2 is certainly fine, in fact I'm not sure that latest version of EMMA 
will even work with the older version of SQL 2008.

Try uninstalling and then reinstalling. At some point there will be a field 
asking for an 'instance name' or similar. This must be set to SQLEXPRESS. It 
seems likely that in this case it was set to something else for some reason. 
Consequently, EMMA can't find the service in order to start it.
