Tried that L
Though running that batch file (I did it by hand) I do get the following; *** Updating ssp password for upgraded installs Invalid shared services provider And the log shows one reference to SharedServices1 which is an SSP.

I have a problem when running the Sharepoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard in the Office Server program group. It runs through fine, but displays a failed status at the end. The event log has this in it; Event Type: Error Event Source: SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard Event Category: None Event ID: 104 Date: 8/13/2008 Time: 12:57:34 PM User: N/A Computer: SHAREPOINT Description: Failed to create sample data.

Currently MOSS isnt working and neither is SPS now, so I'm up against it. Has anyone else seen this ? Can anyone help ? I can't find anything about this specific error on the googleynet or on any of the common sharepoint forums so I thought I would ask the collective nerd-mind.
