September 17 2009 @ 10:14 PM EDT Contributed by: Seker During a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (standard or express) upgrade from a previous version or while updating SQLServer to a newer service pack (SP), you may receive the following error: Error ID: 15116 SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Password validation failed. The password does not meet Windows policy requirements because it is too short.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again. Variations may appear depending on your configuration, including: The password does not meet Windows policy requirements because it is too long. The password does not meet Windows policy requirements because it is not complex enough. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL. This will appear during the install process, but you may also have failed installs through Windows Update and not realize that this is the cause.

Alternatively, you can change the password in the upgrade script so it meets your current password requirements by performing the following steps. Run the SQL Server installer, accept the licensing terms, install/verify prerequisites, and let it scan your configuration so that you eventually end up at the "Welcome to the Microsoft SQLServer Installation Wizard" screen. At this point, navigate to the folder where SQL is currently installed and open .\Upgrade\sqlagent90_msdb_upgrade.sql in a
