CRM 3.0 Errormessage: instance name must be the same as computer n
Posted by Henrik Kristoffersen on September 18th, 2006


Hi

I am trying to make a Test system / Disaster Recovery system of our CRM 3.0.

I have installed a new SQL 2005 on the test system and restored a backup of
master, model, msdb, METABASE, MSCRM, ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB. I
can see the data in the database and access reports.

When I try to install MSCRM 3.0, I get the error: "The instance name must be
the same as computer name".

I have tried to remove the computername in SQL Serve Management Studio by
help of a stored procedure called: sp_dropserver and the sp_addserver,
servername, local

Is there any expert that has knowledge about those stored procedure?

Thank you in advance
Best Regards
Henrik Kristoffersen
