See this blog post from Peter Saddow: First, if you have User Access Control in full swing, UAC will generate the following prompt to make sure you're okay with SQL Server making changes to your computer: If you're not okay with this, obviously, click No, and go about your day as usual. Otherwise, click Yes.
Remember that you need to leave the SQL Server Installation Center running while setup continues. This means you will have two setup icons in your taskbar; in the past, I've attempted to de-clutter my desktop during setup, only to find out that the Installation Center needs to be running or else your temporary files will disappear. I complained about this issue here, but it will not be addressed in this release: Next, you will get a warning during setup (multiple times; once when you launch setup.exe, once when you select 'New SQL Server stand-alone installation.' , and possibly through other paths as well) that only SQL Server 2008 SP1 is supported on your operating system: In the past, this dialog has stopped a lot of people in their tracks, as they thought there was a serious issue and/or that setup would not allow them continue.
Rest assured, you can safely ignore this warning, just make sure to install SP1 before you do anything else. While you might already be seeing it through Microsoft Update, you can download SP1 manually here: Please make sure you download the right language for your operating system / SQL Server instance. I have seen more than one customer complain that they ran the SP1 installer, but it could not find any components to update, because the language did not match. (The fact that setup couldn't give a more helpful error message is another issue.) If you are ambitious, you could avoid this warning by slipstreaming your install with SP1 (and optionally, post-SP1 cumulative updates). Peter also has some great blog posts and FAQs on this process: Whether you slipstream or not, once setup gets to the point where it is going to launch the Setup Support Rules screen, you may see this error: This is due to a Windows 7 change in how.NET UI dialogs are closed, and will be addressed both in a future 2008 CU and in 2008 R2 (see Peter's addendum about this issue ). In the meantime, I have found that the problem goes away if I reboot (as John Paul Cook ), but not if I simply shut down setup and start over.
This likely affects SQL Server 2005 setup as well, since they share the same installation framework; however, if that is the case, I doubt it will be fixed. John also explains that when you setup SQL Server 2008 initially, leave out Books Online, as a more up to date version is available here: Finally, watch this Knowledge Base article, as it is being updated for the final release of both Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2: A side note: can you blue screen Windows 7? I did this today, using only the SQL Server 2008 installer and Task Manager. Here is how I did this, in a VMWare Fusion virtual machine:.
I launched setup, and got the 'Invoke or BeginInvoke.' Error from above. I quit setup (and an instance of SSMS I had open) and rebooted. I launched setup again. The Setup Support Rules screen seemed hung, so I opened Task Manager and was surprised to find an instance of SSMS there. Being impatient, I highlighted ssms.exe and clicked 'Kill Process.'
. The dialog I got insinuated that I would lose data.
Since I knew I had not opened an instance of SSMS, I shrugged and killed the process anyway. I was immediately presented with a BSOD, and VMWare quickly 'recovered' by restarting the VM. This actually hosed my Windows 7 Virtual Machine so badly that I had to delete it from within VMWare Fusion.
I would try to start it up, and it sat there frozen. So I deleted it and am rebuilding a Windows Server 2008 R2 VM as I post this (it was released on MSDN/TechNet, and maybe Connect too, earlier today).
I should learn to create snapshots before installing software, but quite honestly this is by far the worst outcome I've ever had with a SQL Server install, and the VM was a brand new throw-away anyhow. Apexi power fc software download. SQL Server 2008 R2 Many of the same elements apply for SQL Server 2008 R2. A couple of additional notes, which have been mentioned before but are worth mentioning again:.
You cannot revert to 2008 tools once you install 2008 R2. You can uninstall the 2008 R2 instance, but the client tools will not revert back to the previous version. If you already have SQL Server 2008 client tools installed, you will see this warning on the 'Installation Rules' screen in SQL Server 2008 R2 setup:. You cannot upgrade any existing instance (2008 or otherwise) to R2, because only Enterprise Evaluation is currently being offered, and there is no upgrade path. So, if you already have SQL Server installed, you will need to install a separate instance in order to play. Probably the safest route for now, but since I tried to perform an upgrade, I figured some of you might try it too. Hope this information is useful.
Personally, I would install SQL Server and then Visual Studio. When installing Visual Studio, make sure to not install the Express Edition of SQL Server that is part of the install. If you already have an instance of SQL Server locally (I assume Developer Edition) then there is little reason to add an additional Express instance. You can do things the other way around if you want, but I remember the 2005 versions had a real problem in that case, and I rebuilt one machine because of it (and heard of several other similar stories). I'm not sure that I trust all of these issues to be fixed in the 2008 editions. I write these code in my form load: Dim objConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection objConnection.ConnectionString = 'Data Source=HADES-PC Hades;Initial Catalog=C: Program Files Microsoft SQL Server MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER MSSQL DATA first.mdf;Integrated Security=True' objConnection.Open but When i run the program Says A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible.
Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Could u help me.
First, validate that your named instance is in fact called 'Hades'. What do you see in regedit.exe HKEYLOCALMACHINE / SOFTWARE / Microsoft / Microsoft SQL Server / Instance Names / SQL? Second, either change your computer name so it doesn't have a bad character (-) or get used to putting square brackets around it every time you use it. Also consider using localhost or 127.0.0.1 instead of the name, or adding an alias to your hosts file and/or configuration manager. Third, try connecting to your instance using Management Studio or something.
Code just adds layers to your testing and should be the next step after you know what your instance name is called and that it actually accepts connections. Finally, post your questions on StackOverflow. I don't mind providing a bit of guidance but this is certainly not a support forum.

Hi Aaron, We have SQL2008 r2 installed in Windows 7 system.We have couple of our Windows services also starting up along with SQL server with the system boot up. 2 of the windows services connects to the database.Now we encounter the issue of Synchronizing were the SQL server is not fully up and my client services starts connecting to it and fails. Apart from waiting for the SQL server to be fully up and then trying connection.I wanted to know is there any other way i could optimize the start up of SQL server?
Thanks in advance. I installed Sql Server 2008 R2 Enterprise on a Windows 7 Professional machine which is on our network. From two other computers, one running Windows 7 Pro and the other running Windows XP Pro, I tried to connect to the Sqlserver instance via an MS Access 2010 project. After I got to the Access screen to pick a server, I saw the SQL Server's computer name AMS2-WIN7, but the instance name AMSSQLSERVER was not next to the computer name (AMS2-WIN7 AMSSQLSERVER was not there.) I tried using just the computer name, but the connection failed on both computers.

Generally, a download manager enables downloading of large files or multiples files in one session. Many web browsers, such as Internet Explorer 9, include a download manager. Stand-alone download managers also are available, including the Microsoft Download Manager. If you do not have a download manager installed, and still want to download the file(s) you've chosen, please note:. You may not be able to download multiple files at the same time. In this case, you will have to download the files individually.
(You would have the opportunity to download individual files on the 'Thank you for downloading' page after completing your download.). Files larger than 1 GB may take much longer to download and might not download correctly. You might not be able to pause the active downloads or resume downloads that have failed. The Microsoft Download Manager solves these potential problems. It gives you the ability to download multiple files at one time and download large files quickly and reliably. It also allows you to suspend active downloads and resume downloads that have failed. Microsoft Download Manager is free and available for download now.

The core Express database server. Use this if you need to accept remote connections or administer remotely. Express with Tools (with LocalDB) Includes the database engine and SQL Server Management Studio Express). This package contains everything needed to install and configure SQL Server as a database server. Choose either LocalDB or Express depending on your needs above. SQL Server Management Studio Express (Tools only). This does not contain the database, but only the tools to manage SQL Server instances, including LocalDB, SQL Express, SQL Azure, etc.
Use this if you already have the database and only need the management tools. This package includes LocalDB. Express with Advanced Services (contains the database engine, Express Tools, Reporting Services, and Full Text Search). This package contains all the components of SQL Express. This is a larger download than “with Tools,” as it also includes both Full Text Search and Reporting Services. Note: The Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Express has two different methods to complete the installation process:. Attended Installation – an interactive user interface will guide you through the set-up process and obtain all of the information and consent required to complete the installation.
This includes the displaying, acknowledgement, and archiving of the applicable SQL Server license terms. Un-attend Installation – this is a Windows command line set-up process that does not have an interactive user interface to guide you through the set-up process. In this case, you will be required to enter a parameter during installation that indicates your acceptance of the license terms. Here is the copy of the for your review. Step 1: Enable and Download and install. Note: LocalDB does not require any.NET Framework installation.
Note: SQL Server Express (with database engine only) can work with either.NET 3.5 SP1 or.NET 4, there is no need to have both enabled. Step 2: Download Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Express by clicking the appropriate link below. Note: Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Express includes both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. SQLEXPR32x86 is a smaller package that can be used to install SQL Server Express onto only 32-bit operating systems. SQLEXPRx86 is the same product but supports installation onto both 32-bit and 64-bit (WoW) operating systems. SQLEXPRx64 is a native 64-bit SQL Server express and supports installation onto only 64-bit operating systems.
There is no other difference between these packages. Microsoft® SQL Server® 2012 Express is not supported on IA64 systems.
The following sections list the minimum hardware and software requirements to install and run SQL Server 2008. For both 32-bit and 64-bit editions of SQL Server 2008, the following apply:.

Display SQL Server 2008 graphical tools require VGA or higher resolution: at least 1,024x768 pixel resolution. Other Devices Pointing device: A Microsoft mouse or compatible pointing device is required. 1The following.NET Framework versions are required:. SQL Server 2008 on Windows Server 2003 (64-bit) IA64 —.NET Framework 2.0 SP2.
SQL Server Express —.NET Framework 2.0 SP2. All other editions of SQL Server 2008 —.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 Installation of.NET Framework requires a restart of the operating system.
If Windows Installer installation also requires a restart, Setup will wait until.NET Framework and Windows Installer components have installed before restarting. Note Installing.NET Framework 2.0 SP2:.NET Framework 2.0 SP2 is not available as a separate download. You will need to install.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 which includes.NET Framework 2.0 SP2. 2SQL Server Setup will not install the following required components for SQL Server Express,SQL Server Express with Tools, and SQL Server Express with Advanced Services. You must install these components manually before you run SQL Server Setup:.
SQL Server Express —.NET Framework 2.0 SP2 and Windows installer 4.5. On Windows Vista, use.NET Framework 3.5 SP1. SQL Server Express with Advanced Services —.NET Framework 3.5 SP1, Windows Installer 4.5, and Windows PowerShell 1.0. SQL Server Express with Tools —.NET Framework 3.5 SP1, Windows Installer 4.5, and Windows PowerShell 1.0. Note SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 is now available in two formats: SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 with the Microsoft.NET Framework version 3.5 SP1 support and SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 with the Microsoft.NET Framework version 4.0 Beta 2 support. There are no functional differences between these two formats.
Either package supports computers running.NET Framework 2.0 SP2 or.NET Framework 3.5 SP1. For computers running.NET Framework 4 Beta 2 only, install SQL Server 2008 Express SP1 with the.NET Framework 4 Beta 2 support. 3 As with all virtualization technologies, SQL Server 2008 running in a Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V virtual computer will be slower than on a physical computer with the same physical resources. The English-language version of SQL Server 2008 is supported on all localized versions of supported operating systems. Localized versions of SQL Server 2008 are supported on localized operating systems that are the same language as the localized SQL Server 2008 version.
Localized versions of SQL Server can be upgraded to localized versions of SQL Server 2008 of the same language. Localized versions of SQL Server cannot be upgraded to the English-language version of SQL Server 2008. Localized versions of SQL Server cannot be upgraded to localized SQL Server 2008 versions of a different localized language.
Localized versions of SQL Server 2008 are also supported on English-language versions of supported operating systems by using the Windows Multilingual User Interface Pack (MUI) settings. However, you must verify certain operating system settings before you install a localized version of SQL Server 2008 on a server that is running an English-language operating system with a non-English MUI setting. You must verify that the following operating system settings match the language of SQL Server 2008 to be installed:. The operating system user interface setting. The operating system user locale setting. The system locale setting If these operating system settings do not match the language of the localized SQL Server, then you must correctly set these operating system settings before you install SQL Server 2008.
Extended System Support. During installation of SQL Server 2008, Windows Installer creates temporary files on the system drive.
Before you run Setup to install or upgrade SQL Server, verify that you have at least 2.0 GB of available disk space on the system drive for these files. This requirement applies even if you install SQL Server components to a non-default drive. Actual hard disk space requirements depend on your system configuration and the features that you decide to install.
The following table provides disk space requirements for SQL Server 2008 components. For security reasons, Microsoft recommends that you do not install SQL Server 2008 on a domain controller. SQL Server Setup will not block installation on a computer that is a domain controller, but the following limitations apply:.
On Windows Server 2003, SQL Server services can run under a domain account or a local system account. You cannot run SQL Server services on a domain controller under a local service account or a network service account. After SQL Server is installed on a computer, you cannot change the computer from a domain member to a domain controller. You must uninstall SQL Server before you change the host computer to a domain controller. After SQL Server is installed on a computer, you cannot change the computer from a domain controller to a domain member.
You must uninstall SQL Server before you change the host computer to a domain member. SQL Server failover cluster instances are not supported where cluster nodes are domain controllers. SQL Server Setup cannot create security groups or provision SQL Server service accounts on a read-only domain controller. In this scenario, Setup will fail. Supported Clients (64-Bit).
How install SQL Server 2008 32Bit on Windows 2008 X64 In a specific case, you have to install SQL Server 2008 32Bit (X86) on Windows 2008 X64. It can be due to the provider of your end application who supports only on a SQL 32Bit his application.
If you want to install SQL server 2008 from the command prompt, you can specify that Setup should install into WOW64 by adding the parameter X86='True'. This command line argument is not supported on an IA64 or a 32-bit system. How to: Install SQL Server 2008 from the Command Prompt If you want to run the setup by using the wizard, you can also specify the architecture of SQL Server 2008 to install. You can choose between X86(32bit) and X64 in the tab 'Options'.
