Hi,<br />
<br />
You can't use Network Service or Local Service account for your SQL Server, what account did you choose?<br />
<br />
Additionally, SQL Server is not supported on ReadOnly domain controller:<br />

Hi,<br />
<br />
Your service sid account doesn't have access to it's data folders. I suggest to start off on E: drive. Add NT SERVICE\MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS user to list. Then, it depends on an inheritance settings, but I suggest to grant aforementioned account <i>read &amp;&nbsp;execute, list folder contents, read</i> (the same as on root E: drive). These should stay until you get into DATA and LOG directories, both should be granted under FullControl to the SQL Server account.<br />
<br />
Regards,<br />
Daniel

Daniel_PL My system not have a Drive E: only C:<br />
thanks for you reply, Anyway, I'm going to check the logs

Looks like SQL Server wasn't properly installed. If drive E: doesn't exists, it existed during the installation and now it's complaining about it.<br />
Perhaps best thing to do is to reinstall.

Installation is the act of making a computer program program ready for execution. Because the process varies programs often come with a specialized program responsible for doing whatever is needed for their installation. Installation may be part of a larger software deployment process. Cross platform installer builders that produce installers for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux include InstallAnywhere, InstallBuilder and Install4J. Installers for Microsoft Windows include Windows Installer, InstallShield, and Wise Installation Studio; free installer-authoring tools include NSIS, IzPack, Clickteam, InnoSetup, InstallSimple and WiX. Mac OS X includes Installer, and also includes a separate software updating application.
