A few days ago I was forced to install and use SQL Server database on my system. A few days later I had to install MS VS .NET 2008. After that, it turned out that the standard utility SQL Server Configuration Manager does not seem to work correctly. It shows a message box that contains the following error:
Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable. Note that you can only manage SQL Server 2005 servers with SQL Server Configuration Manager.
Nie można znaleźć określonego modułu. [0x8007007e]

Unfortunately, I could not find any working solution of this problem (perhaps it is so because my knowledge of Microsoft’s database is less than miserable ) Some pages suggested running Mof-compiler program with *.mof file from SQL Server installation directory but it does not work in my case.

EDIT: After some time I figured out what should done to solve this problem. It is simple. It just requires copying framedyn.dll file from folder: “C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem” to folder: “C:\WINDOWS\system32”.
