unable to load sql server ODBC driver resource dll
This is SQL 2000 developers edition on a Win 2000 professional (sp2)
that already had SQL 2000 Dev.Ed. (very same CD) installed. I
uninstalled SQL because replication broke, not being able to
initialize a snapshot (unable to copy data from syncobj_324323xxxxx),
but that's another story.
During installation, I get "Unable to load sql server ODBC driver
resource dll", and the setup log says "unable to configure server".
I'd copy the required dll/rll where ever necessary, if I could find
out what's missing. How do I track down the missing dll/rll? Anyone
solved this before?

The SQL ODBC driver is sqlsrv32.dll. sqlsrv32.dll and sqlsrv32.rll
are in
winnt\system32, so they should have been found. Is there some other
missing file that can cause this? Or a version incompatibility? The
latest MDAC has been installed.

Fixed the problem by copying sqlsrv32.dll and sqlsrv32.rll from the
SQL CD into c:\winnt\system32. But why didn't installation replace
them for me? Does it leave DLLs alone in certain circumstances?
