Problem upgrading to EC4.5 -> sql version 2000

Hi all,

I am upgrading from Enterprise Console 3.0 to 4.5. I followed the advisory, but are running into a problem now.

Initially the enterprise console and database were on the same machine. msde 2000.

I did the following steps:

1> Move db to sql 2005 instance ( part of sql 2005 cluster)

2> Adjust registry keys to connect EC to database

= These steps worked as I could manage my installation and clients

3> Install EC 4.02 on db server...(fill db later)

4> Install EC 4.02 on EC server

5>ran upgradedb -sourceVersion=3

= Enterprise console did the conversion and is working.

6> Install EC 4.5 on db server (fill db later)

When I try to install EC 4.5 on the EC server, I get an error saying that the installer cannot continue because sql version 2000.

I checked the compatibility mode of the database. This is version "90". (sql2005)

I stopped the instance of msde on the EC server

What can I do more to complete the upgrade?

Any help would be appreciated.

Kind regards,

Oscar Tasseron
