Aku baru balik daripada stadium. Baru lepas tengok Final Piala FA. Kelantan vs. Selangor. Sayang la. Kelantan kalah penalty. Main dah cantik dah. Try dah banyak. Masa waktu tambahan, siap leading 1-0 lagi. Tapi lepas tu, Selangor terus menyerang bertubi-tubi. Akhirnya, keputsan jadi seri 1-1. Apa nak buat kan. Pastu, penetuan juara melalui sepakan penalty. Yang sedihnya, boleh pulak “Star” Kelantan ni miss first penalty. Adeh. Terus down semua orang. Huhu. Tapi tak boleh salahkan dia jugak. Sebab aku tahu, dia dah buat yang terbaik. So, thanks. Nampaknya, Selangor lagi terror amik penalty. Huhu.

Ini la bola sepak. Susah nak predict. Walaupun Kelantan tengah berada di prestasi yang terbaik sekarang ni. Tapi kalah jugak la. Banyak faktor-faktor yang boleh buat kalahnya satu-satu team tu. Ni aku nak listkan serba sedikit yang aku rasa telah membuatkan team aku kalah.

1. Game di adakan di negeri pihak lawan.
2. Banyak sangat kad kuning di layangkan kepada player kelantan.
3. Some of the player selalu lost focus. Pass tak betul la. Banyak terlepas bola. Tunggu bola.
4. Bila dah leading, defence dah hilang focus. Yang tu buat bolos tu. Huhu.
5. Pancit/penat. Kena banyak bersenam lagi ni.

Tapi, secara keseluruhan. Aku sangat berbangga dengan team aku ni. Hehe. Tahniah aku ucapkan sebab masuk final. Walaupun kalah, tapi “It was a great game”. Ini satu permulaan yang bagus. Harap-harap tahun depan, boleh pergi stadium lagi tengok final. Hehe.

p/s: Tahniah untuk Selangor.

Semalam aku baru sampai KL. Baru balik dari kampung. Banyak kali jugaklah niat aku nak balik kampung ni tertangguh. Nak tak nak, last week aku pon balik jugak la. Bukan nye apa, nak setelkan urusan penting la katakan. Huhu.

Lama juga aku tak balik kampung ni. Rindu rasanya kat Abah dan Ma. Buah hati no satu la tu. Rumah pon dah banyak renovate. Parking lot dah boleh muat 5 biji kereta. Wahh.. banyaknye. Hehe. Rumah kat kampung biasa la. Lot rumah diorang besar. So, boleh la buat banyak-banyak. Tak macam rumah-rumah kat KL ni. Kalau kat KL, rumah yang parking lot sampai 5, dah kira milionare tu. Tapi kalau kat kampung, perkara biasa je. Buat parking lot banyak2 ni pon semua untuk anak2 dia. Nanti time raya, anak2 senang la sket nak parking kereta. Bagus betul Abah aku ni. So, kepada anak2nye tu, balik2 la selalu ke rumah ye. Hehe..

Sekarang ni, orang dok sibuk ngan piala FA. Iye lah, Kelantan kan dah masuk Final Piala FA. Hehe. Teruja aku dengar ayat tadi. Lama dah negeri Kelantan tenggelam dalam area bola sepak ni. Tup tup tahun ni meletup pulak. Ini yang buat hati aku gembira ni. Mesti la gembira, “negeri kawe tu gu” .

Time balik kampung hari tu, aku terjumpa la satu sticker ni. Menarik Hehe. RM1 sekeping. Aku rasa, korang mesti dah biasa tengok sticker ni. Selalunya leh nampak kat kereta mat mat kelate. Tapi aku tak tampal kat kereta, aku tampal kat notebook aku bersama sticker2 hot yang lain. Hehe.

8. Don’t just learn the tricks of the trade. Learn the trade.

Problem

Today, I had faced a weird problem when installing the Sql Server Express 2005 (SqlExpr).  I cannot install the SqlExpr into the PC. I had tried 2 times at the difference PC and both are failed.

The problem happens at the half way of the installing process. It suddenly restart the PC by it self. There is no signal or dialog box prompting that there is an error during the installation.

My colleague suggested to me to upgrade the PC’s memory. Current the memory is 512MB. Then, I re-check the requirement spec for SqlExpr from Microsoft website. Here is it:

So, the PC’s spec had meet the requirement (at least the minimum requirement :)). So it is not because of memory. Even though if we upgrade the memory, the problem will still be the same.

But, to make sure  this is not cause by memory. (My level of confidence is so poor), I had tried to install the SqlExpr at the 2nd PC which memory is 2GB. Unfortunately, the same problem happens. Its reboot again.

Solution
Later, I had look at the Event Viewer log. The log told that there is an error when accessing the temporary file.

Actually, when you double click the SQLEXPR.EXE (SqlServ installer), it will extract the installation folder into some temporary folder. Normally the folder name is some GUID. So this temporary folder will be use during the installation process. Because of some reason (I don’t know why), the installer can’t read the file in the temporary folder and cause it to reboot.

Later I had decided to extract the installation file to a certain folder manually. And then, run the setup.exe. Thanks god, it is work. Pheww.. At last, I had successfully installed the SqlServ.

To extract the file manually, you can give this argument “SQLEXPR.EXE /x:c:\sqlinstaller” in the command prompt. This argument will extract the installation file into “C:\SQLINSTALLER\”.

Wassalam.
