I just installed the May 2009 CTP. As soon as I launch Quadrant, I get the error "repository not found'. I'm running a named instance of SQK Server 2008 on my local machine. I also noticed a number of schemas were missing from the repository db, notably system.runtime.

Did you try dropping the Repository and creating it yourself:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Oslo\1.0\bin\mx.exe" create /database:Repository /dataFile:"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\Repository.mdf" /dataFileInitialSize:1GB /dataFileMaxSize:"unlimited" /logFile:"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\Repository.ldf" /logFileInitialSize:800MB /dataFileGrowth:100MB /logFileMaxSize:"unlimited" /logFileGrowth:100MB /force


"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Oslo\1.0\bin\mx.exe" install "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Oslo\1.0\bin\Repository.mx" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Oslo\1.0\bin\System.Runtime.mx" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Oslo\1.0\bin\System.Identity.mx" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Oslo\1.0\bin\Microsoft.UML212.mx" /database:Repository /property:RepositoryChangeTracking=+

The above should install the domains that ship with Oslo into the repository.

Ka-ching. *But*, the real problem was that my SQL 2008 was a named instance along side a 2005 default instance. Oslo, like so many other apps, doesn't account for named db instances. You'd think that four years later, apps, especially MS apps, would come to grips with instance names.

Charlie,

I had the same problem because I had installed SQL ServerExpress earlier using the default instance name "SQLEXPRESS". I got around this problem by creating a alias named ".\MSSQLSERVER" using the Sql Server Configuration Manager and having it point to my SQLEXPRESS instance.

Hope it helps,
