Error when upgrading from SQL Server 2008 Enterprise R2 evaluation to Enterprise

$

0

Hello,

I have an issue while i'm trying to update my enterprise current expired evulation version to a normal enterprise.

The fact is that I have on my server 2 instance :

- First one is on an evaluation version

- Second one is on a right enterprise version.

I've tried the normal procedure :

- Inserting the original setup media -> Maintenance -> upgrade edition -> it's fine

- Installation -> Upgrade from SQL Server... -> choosing the right instance name... -> the set up crashed and the Database Engine Services failed to upgrade

- Repairing the installation and restart the process but nothing better...

I've even tried to upgrade my product according to that page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2020443?wa=wsignin1.0

But it's the same...

There are many related threads to that upgrade but seems i'm the only one who got this problem...

How to check if SQL Shared Management Objects is already installed ?

$

0

Hi,

Our product requires SQL Shared Management Objects to be installed on customer's machine to work.

So, in our WiX setup for our product msi, we need :

1) Check is SSMO is already installed.

   Question: Is there a reliable way to determine if SSMO is already installed. I am hoping there would be a registry key that I could search up. Is this key in different locations for x86/x64/WoW SSMO installations?

2) If SSMO is already installed, how can I determine its version ? (again hoping the version information can be queried from registry).

3) As part of our setup in WiX, can I pull in the installation of SSMO redist. Would love to see some similar sample using WiX.

Thanks,

Sameer

 

 

to redist SSMO or tell the customer to install SSMO first.

 

WiX setup of our product needs SQL Shared Management Objects to be installed.

 

SQLSERVER 2008 Developer Evaluation to - Licensed Upgrade Question

Hi Experts,

I've recently licensed my 2008 R2 Evaluation Edition to Licensed one using Edition Upgrade Method. Once I upgraded , it doesn't show the Evaluation copy anymore.

SELECT    SERVERPROPERTY('ProductVersion') AS ProductVersion,    SERVERPROPERTY('ProductLevel') AS ProductLevel,    SERVERPROPERTY('Edition') AS Edition;GO
10.50.1600.1    RTM    Developer Edition (64-bit)

But, when I'm using the below query it still showing the expiry date as below:

SELECT    create_date AS 'SQL Server Install Date',    DATEADD(DD, 180, create_date) AS 'SQL Server Expiry Date'FROM sys.server_principalsWHERE name = 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM'

SQL Server Install Date        SQL Server Expiry Date
2012-11-22 17:13:20.713    2013-05-21 17:13:20.713

Even SSMS --> HELP--> About shows the expiration date.

Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Complete (expires in 36 days)    10.50.1600.1

Even though it was rightly upgraded to Licensed product, but still shows expiration day. Am I missing something? Is this properly licensed instance now?

Thanks

SQL Server 2008 evaluation edition

 I have installed SQL Server 2008 Enterprise Evaluation edition on my personal computer from Microsoft Press book for the SQL Server 2008 Database developer exam. I also installed the MS Adventureworks2008 database. I recently connected to SQL server and the AdventureWorks2008 database was marked suspect.  I followed some instructions I found online but that did not resolve my problem.  I deleted the AdventureWorks2008 db and tried to reattach but got errors. I was wondering if I should just reinstall the SQL server and can I if it is a 180 evaluation?

Compatibility issue error - Microsoft SQL Server (2008 and 2008 R2)

$

A few days ago I installed Visual Studio 2010 on my new laptop. It installed everything needed for .NET, SQL, etc. I've been working with it since then with no problems until today. This morning my data source connections to sql databases via asp.net controls worked fine. Suddenly this afternoon it  quit working. When I try to connect to my data source via asp.net controls (e.g. gridview) a "Program Compatibility Assistant" popup box informs me that there are compatibility issues with Microsoft SQL Server (2008 and 2008 R2). 

I get the same error message from the SQL Service Installation Center if I select "System Configuration Checker". Trying to run sqlservr gives me the same error. What on earth is going on here? Everything worked fine this morning. I did not install anything new since then. I did not attempt to update anything at all. Suddenly it's just all broken. Please help. I'm completely baffled here. 

I navigated to here: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.SQLEXPRESS\MSSQL\Binn

The properties for sqlservr indicate that it's version 10.0.2531.0

According to a table I found online, that's 2008 Service Pack 1. I don't even understand where all these references to 2008 R2 I'm seeing are coming from. According to this version number I don't even have R2.

Hello All,

I have been trying since this morning to install SQL Server 2008 in my Machine. It has Windows 7 installed in it. Earlier it was working fine, yesterday i had some issue with my machine as affected by viruses and i had to format my machine. Today morning freshly formatted the machine and installed Windows 7.

After installing the OS and tried to install SQL Server 2008, but the installation never last long for 1 minute. It stops abruptly after the prerequisites check (rules check). IT is passing all six rules and not continuing the installation further. See the following screen for the error

The installation closes automatically after the following step,

I am unable to proceed the installation further and could not find the reason why the error is thrown every time.

Please suggest and help me solve this issue

Making the report server HA on a cluster

$

0

Hello All,

I just created my first SQL 2008 R2 cluster with a slipstreamed SP1 package on a windows 2012 cluster and I've got a question with regards to the SQL Reporting server.

While creating the cluster, I installed 3 features on node 1: DB Engine, Reporting Server and management tools.

Upon completion, I went to the second node (without configuring the report server) and added this node to the cluster.

After completion, I went back to node 1 and performed the CU6 update needed for system Center.

There I noticed all 3 components were available for upgrade.

When I went to node 2 to upgrade it to CU6, I noticed that the report server component wasn't added to that node.

Why is this?

Is this normal behaviour?

Should I have configured the report server on node 1 befor adding node 2 to the cluster?

How can I add the report server component as well to node 2?

I've tried to launch the installer again and to add a feature to the node using the "New installation or add features to an existing installation", but then one of the checks fail with the message that this node is part of a cluster and that the feature can't be added.

How can I add the reportserver component on node 2 as well?

Thanks!

Filip

Instance Name doesn't exist when attempting to run setup to REBUILDDATABASE

$

I am trying to rebuild my system databases in order to change the default collation on the server.  I am attempting to do this against my local SQL Express instance in order to forestall any unforeseen issues when doing it on our enterprise instance.  I am using the setup.exe from the SQL 2008 R2 installation media, as I was advised to do as a work around to another error I was getting. 

This new attempt fails with an error that the specified SQL instance does not exist.  However, it most certainly does exist, as it is the name of the server to which I connect through SQL Server Management Studio. 

Below is the command I am running and the results that display on my command prompt.  Note the useless advice to "Please review the summary.txt log for further details"; the summary.txt log only contains a message saying to review the summary.txt log - a rather circular analysis route.


I:\>setup.exe /QUIET /ACTION=REBUILDDATABASE /INSTANCENAME="ITS-LKPYRLA\SQLEXPRESS" /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="vdfy\peterst" /SQLCOLLA

Error result: -2068578302

Please review the summary.txt log for further details

Any help is, of course, greatly appreciated.

Error while enabling Windows feature NetFx3 (SQL Server 2012 on Windows 2012)

$

While installing SQL Server 2012  on Windows Server 2012, I got this error "Error while enabling Windows feature : NetFx3, Error Code : -2146498298 , Please try enabling Windows feature : NetFx3 from Windows management tools and then run setup again. For more information on how to enable Windows features , see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=227143".

The installation continued and at the end the features that failed were Database Engine Services & Management Tools (I had SSIS & other Client Tools selected). The error says to enable .NET 3.5 manually. But when I tried to add the .NET 3.5 feature, I found the .NET 4.5 is already installed.  Now I am unsure if I should install .NET 3.5 in addition to .NET 4.5 or uninstall .Net 4.5 and install just the .NET 3.5. 

I have reviewed http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681562 but it does not clearly say it either.

Can anyone else advise.

Hi, My name is Leonard and I am studying SQL. I have downloaded the newest MS SQL 2012 and also MS 2012 Hyper-V. I have set a MS 2012 Hyper-V on a laptop with AMD Turion 64 X2 and 3G of RAM (Planing to add more to max at 8G).

Following the instructions in the free onlineAdministering Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Databases” Training Kit, I have set 6 virtual machines as instructed in the Training Kit. While the installation of the MS Server Core 2008 R2 SP1 completed with no problem, the same cannot be said for the SQL Server 2012 installation. I have encountered an error that I have not seen anyone address in any of the SQL web forums.

After running the unattended setup instruction (Setup.exe /qs /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQLEngine /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER /SQLSVCACCOUNT="Njowa\Pa$$worD>" /SQLSVCPASSWORD=" Pa$$worD” /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="Njowa\lenny#4!@" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\Network Service" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS) this is what I get after a series SQL setup initiation windows popups then disappears.

The following error occurred:

Result error Code: 16387

Please review the summary.txt log for further details

How to add a new instance to a 2 node SQL 2008 R2 Cluster under the same networkname

$
0
0

Hello All,

I'm fairly new to sql and have just deployed a new 2 node SQL 2008 R2 cluster.

During installation, I created a networkname SQLCLU and a named instance I01.

I now would like to add another Instance (I02) under the same networkname.

What is the proper procedure to do this?

I don't believe that I should do this using the action: "New SQL Server failover cluster" from the setup menu, but rather using the action "New Installation or add features to an existing installation"

With the second option, I'm however not sure how I should make this instance clustered..

Should I also execute the "New Installation or add features to an existing installation" action on the 2nd node in the cluster?

Many thanks for your  advice!

Filip
