Our company has installation folders on a network drive. These are not properly labelled. My goal was to install SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard. However, I ended up first installing SQL Server 2008 Standard, then SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer,
then SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard. This was unsuccessful, I believe, because of the confusion between editions. Other users in our company will, I fear, end up making the same mistake. Both SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer and Standard have the
same version number 10.50.1600.1 However, how can users tell if it's developer or standard Before installation?

Maintenance Plan Creation Failure
I just tried to create a maintenance plan on a SQL Server 2012 instance (build 11.0.3349), but I receive this error:
"TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
------------------------------
Provide value on 'System.Windows.Markup.StaticExtension' threw an exception. (PresentationFramework)

This was already working on my system. I recently had to install .NET Framework 4.5 for VS 2012. Maybe it corrupted anything?
C:\Windows\system32>regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS\Binn\DTS.dll" did not help for this issue.
Does anybody have an idea what's wrong here?
Thanks, Klaus

Repair SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2
Hi everyone,
Following an upgrade to SQL Server 2012 which didn't succeed, someone recommended that I repair my actual SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 setup. The actual setup I have, which btw is running without any problem, is the following:
- SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 CU1 Express Edition with advanced services (Reporting Services is installed and active)
- Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Professionnal Edition
- Visual Studio 2008 SP1 Express Edition
- Windows VISTA SP2 Ultimate Edition
My request is very simple. Before repairing a SQL setup:
- Do I need to stop any services?
- Any other thing I should stop, uninstall or else?
- Do I launch the repair from the "Control Panel - Install/uninstall program" menu or can I just run the "SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2" setup file I just downloaded from the .NET. I prefer asking because I thought that running this setup file under administrative rights could help avoiding privilege problems or else?
Hope to hear from someone,
Stéphane

SQL error during new installation
I need to remove SQL 2005 on my machine in order to install a new software product. I have followed the MS support recommendation to do so. I am now attempting to install the new software program on my machine and I get this error > Error 5 Invalid

Upgrading SQL 2005 x64 Enterprise to 2008 R2 Enterprise
Hi all.
I'm having a problem running an in place upgrade of SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise to 2008 R2 Enterprise.
When I run setup.exe and choose "upgrade", I am able to upgrade all components apart from the database engine. I am not given the option to select an instance prior to this. I have ensured that "x64" is selected from the bottom "options" tab on the initial setup screen. My current installed version of SQL is definitely 2005 x64 Enterprise, I have checked this with @@version and in the general properties of the Management Studio.
The strange thing is that if I select "x86" from the bottoms tab in SQL setup I AM able to select the 2005 instance, which lists the database engine as something it will upgrade in the next screen. Obviously I have not proceeded with the upgrade as I feel something is wrong somewhere.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I can get the x64 install to detect the 2005 instance and upgrade the database engine?
Thanks

Hard Drive Configuration for New SQL Server Install on Hyper-V Host
Hello,
I am in the process of setting up a new Hyper-V 2012 Server and one of the servers to be hosted on it will be running Windows 2008 R2 with SQL Server 2012. Someone has recommended to me that I split the installation onto two volumes using the 2nd volume for SQL data files. Since both volumes would be carved out of the same underlying RAID volume in Hyper-V I am wondering if that is really necessary.
The Hyper-V host itself has four 15,000 rpm SAS drives configured as RAID-10. It is split into two volumes, one 80gb volume for Hyper-V itself, and the rest a roughly 1TB volume for the Virtual Machines themselves. If I create two volumes for the SQL server they will both come out of the same 1TB volume.
Is it worth the extra trouble to create two partitions for a SQL server in a case such as this?
Thanks in advance.

SharePoint 2013 Enterprise and SQL Server 2012 Standard edition vs. Enterprise - feature question
I can't seem to find any clear answers to the implications of installing SQL Server 2012 standard edition vs. enterprise in regards to SharePoint 2013.
I understand that to get many of the features you need Enterprise edition of SQL 2012; but, what I can't figure out is if the backend SharePoint SQL 2012 is standard; but, the PowerPivot/SSRS server is Enterprise will we still get the features?
If we have 3 tier SharePoint farm, one of those tiers is for the SQL Server database backend. If that SQL instance is 2012 standard and we add another server to the farm w/ SQL 2012 Enterprise to handle the tabular models, PowerPivot, and SSRS in integrated mode will we still get the features?
Or, can we (should we) install Enterprise 2012 as the SharePoint database backend and let that instance triple down as also the PowerPivot and SSRS instance?

SSIS: Required excel columns should be store in three tables, doesn't store excel all columns in all tables
Hi all,
I am importing excel data into three tables using SSIS. I've done package successfully.
Excel sheet contain below columns'
Id
Name
Sales_Stage
Primary_Sales_Rep_Login
Product
Description
First_Name varchar(100),
Last_Name varchar(100),
Street_Address varchar(1000),
Street_Address_2 varchar(1000),
Street_Address_3 varchar(1000),
City
State
Postal_Code
Country
Territory
Account_Id
Account
Main_Phone_Number
Main_Fax_Number
Record_State
HP_Customer_Agreement_
Legacy_opportunity_ID
LegacyAccount_ID
LegacyProduct
Now, i imported these columns into three tables, like as below.
create table tblproduct(
Id varchar(50),
Name varchar(200),
Sales_Stage varchar(200),
Primary_Sales_Rep_Login varchar(300),
Product varchar(300),
Description varchar(1000),
)
create table tblcustomer(
First_Name varchar(100),
Last_Name varchar(100),
Street_Address varchar(1000),
Street_Address_2 varchar(1000),
Street_Address_3 varchar(1000),
City varchar(100),
State varchar(100),
Postal_Code varchar(50),

Record_State varchar(10),
HP_Customer_Agreement_ varchar(20),
Legacy_opportunity_ID varchar(50),
LegacyAccount_ID varchar(50),
LegacyProduct varchar(50)
)
After debug the package successfully completed. But the problem is all excel columns are storing in all destination tables. I need only required columns should be stored in three tales. And there is no problem in package. I used below query.
SELECT DISTINCT Id, Name, Sales_Stage, Primary_Sales_Rep_Login, Product, Description, First_Name + Last_Name AS Full_Name, IIF(ISNULL(Street_Address),'',Street_Address) + IIF(ISNULL(Street_Address_2),'',Street_Address_2) + IIF(ISNULL(Street_Address_3),'',Street_Address_3) AS Street, City, State, Postal_Code, Country, Territory, Account_Id, Account, Main_Phone_Number, Main_Fax_Number, Record_State, HP_Customer_Agreement_, Legacy_opportunity_ID, LegacyAccount_ID, LegacyProduct FROM [SiebelIndigoData$]
Please tell me anybody.

Effect of changing the default language for SQL server 2012 system accounts
Hi i've been asked to change the default language of all of our SQL 2012 installs. As well as changing the default language to British English I've been asked the change the default language of all the Logins to British English, however I'm a little bit unsure of how this will effect the NT SERVICE accounts, and other system accounts.
Is it necessary to change the language on these system accounts, and if I do will it have any adverse effects?

Internal Query Processor Error - During Installation
I am having problem installing SQL Server 2008 R2 express (SP2) , on a Win7 Home Premium pc.
Error occured near the end of the installation process.
The Error message : Internal Query Processor Error : xxx
I checked the event log and found that it actually referencing to e: , but e: is a cdrom.
I am installing from D: , so it doesn't make sense that it refers to e:
I have tried disabling the cdrom drive, so that the e: disappear from "My Computer", but the error still persisted.
Is there any solution for this?

SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 won't install. Can't find instance
Hey folks,
I need some help. I'm trying to install SP1 of the SQL Server 2008 R2. The install script gets stuck right at the beginning where it looks for existing instances. It tells me there aren't any.
Background - I sucessfully installed SQL Server today. When I installed, it didn't automatically create the instance like it has in the past. When I specified a server (machinename\SQLEXPRESS), it finally let me into the Management Studio. That was my first clue something might not be right.
Is there some option I missed or something else I've done wrong?
FWIW, I'm not a DBA, but I am technical. So if you could please keep the discussion to layman term, it would be greatly appreciated
edit - tried to upload a screenshot of the error, but I can't link or upload until I've been verified. Hand tight folks↧
SQL Server 2008 r2 firewall issues
I am in the process of setting up a new testing "server" for web/desktop app development/testing. The machine is an i3 with windows 8 Pro on it. I have installed SQL Server 2008 r2 standard edition (this is what the production server will have), and I have enabled TCP/IP networking for my database, as well as opened port 1433 and 1434 on Windows Firewall (I have set this database to use port 1433 as the static ip).
When I try accessing the database from another computer on the network, I am unable to connect. If I turn off the firewall on the "server" off altogether though it works just fine. Am I missing something here in the configuration?
UPDATE: Even with the firewall turned off, I was able to connect, but lost the connection shortly after and can no longer find the server. I have to restart the server in order to connect again, and I loose connection shortly after connecting again. Obviously I have more going on here than just the firewall. I have done this is the past with sql express and not had any issues - just enabled TCP/IP and added the port through the firewall and been done. Is there something more with SQL Standard that I am missing? are there additional steps for setting up the networking correctly?↧

I have all Windows Updates installed on this machine and I DO NOT have VS 2008 installed on this computer (VS2008 was never installed on this computer), but VS 2010 SP1 with .Net Framework 4.0 SP1!
I have sent all day trying to install either ones of the above .exe, but always get the same error message.
I have checked the registry and see that I do not have a HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DevDiv\VS key but only a HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DevDiv\VC key (probably since I configured VS1010 for C#). The HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DevDiv\VC\Servicing\9.0 contains
SP = 1 and SPIndex = 1.

Moving SQL Server to a new Domain
Hi
We have been taken over by another company and have migrated all our AD Accounts PC's and Servers to the new Domain except for our SQL servers that are still running in the old domain.
I need to move the SQL servers to the new Domain now. We are still running Windows 2003 AD. We have a full trust relationship between the old Domain and the New Domain. We have all the SQL Services running as service accounts in the New Domain.
Is there anything else I should consider before moving the Old SQL Servers to the New Domain?

SQL Server 2005 Upgrade to 2012
I have done an in-place upgrade of SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2012. It appears that SQL Server 2005 is still installed on the server. This is my first in-place upgrade of SQL so I am not sure if there would be any issues uninstalling SQL Server 2005.
Will I run into trouble if I uninstall it? Thank you in advance for the help.
