Problems found after checking database configuration of server

Hello all,

Though this problem has been addressed before. .

I couldn’t get a clear idea.

I get the error. .

_________________________________________________________

"Wrong Server Collation; J2EE installation requires

SQL Latin 1 General CP850 Bin 2 Collation.

MS SQL Server Patch is too low; please read the note 62988;

These problems must be fixed before continuing installation."

I installed SQL Server 2000 SP3. And in type radio button,

Choose Custom and then proceeded to choose the collation

designator latin1_General and sort order as Binary as advised

in the note (service.sap.com).

Now I am trying to install SAPinst for netweaver Installation.

Then the above error is repeated again and again and again and

again. I have been trying it since quite some time going through

service.sap.com/SDN,have gone through various notes and even

installed the hot fix provided at (service.sap.com) still

I get the following error:

_________________________________________________________

"Wrong Server Collation; J2EE installation requires

SQL Latin 1 General CP850 Bin 2 Collation.

These problems must be fixed before continuing installation."

When i try to connect to. .It says

The current collation is Latin1_General1_BIN,

Not SQL_Latin1_General1_Cp850_BIN

Then install the Unicode hotfix(QFE)

Any inputs in this regard would be appreciated

Thanks in advance.

Mohan.
