Getting sql server 2k8 and 2k5 is not a directly supported feature. Im
surprised that
this would be a problem but I would consider reviewing Microsofts sites for a
possible
solution.
What is the previous version you re-installed? 0.3?

Yes, it was 0.3.

BTW, Does OML require that the DB be 2K8? Does it use any special features of
2K8?
If not, couldn't I just create a 2k5 datasource and catalog?

I beleive the method used to access the database Linq to SQL required sqlserver
2008.

I have verified that linq DOES work with sql server 2k5. You should be able to
use the
.sql files from the source repo to create the database, then modify your
\programdata\openmedialibrary\settings.xml file to point at the correct
instance/machine and you should be good to go.
I'm going to assume this issue is closed (we don't officially support 2k5 but
it should
work as far as I can tell, also issues with 2k5 and 2k8 on the same machine
fall under
the domain of MS).

That last part is not a good thing to say. The company I work for, we have
client
on SQL 2K through SQL 2k8. We still have to make certain that our apps work
for all
of them. I think it would be better to look for a SQL Server that meets a
minimum
standard and offer to install the DB there if nothing else.

Well none of that worked. I went throught the process of manually creating the
db,
downloading the scripts, running them on the DB, reinstalling the server, and
still
I am getting the same thing.

to comment 6: i also work for a company that requires I continue to support ie6
and
it sucks. OML is not a company, nobody pays for our stuff, and no warranty is
offered, implied or otherwise in place. We decided to go with 2k8 and I can
assure
you we considered many options for quite a while.
to comment 7: can you show here your settings.xml file from
\programdata\openmedialibrary\

Unable to reproduce the SQL2k5/SQL2k8 issue. My copy of the OML SQL instance is
on a
box with SQL2k5 ENT.
PLEASE NOTE: Although Linq does somewhat "work" under SQL 2k5, it is not
supported
fully and will result in requiring additional hand-coding of the dbml files to
prevent casting errors. Search the forums for my initial testing around this
(I'm
not providing a link because it was a long time ago and I don't feel like
digging).
Minimum SQL requirements are SQL 2008.
