Installing .Net Framework For SQL Server 2008 Express
Apr 25, 2008
Please make this sticky or put it into the faq:
Note: Using Windows Vista Ultimate
SQL Server 2008 Express Edition download page says in big letters, "You Must Install .Net Framework 2.0." The link provided to .Net framework -- framework/ take me to a page that only lists .Net Framework 3.0, with a notice that 3.5 redistributable has been released. What is the correct version of .Net Framework to install SQL Server 2008 Express Edition - 2.0, 3.0, 3.0 + 3.5, or just 3.5?
I have a database with deployed CLR assembly on SQL 2008. I recently took a backup for the database and restored it on SQL 2012 server. Everything worked fine except very strange working of CLR assemblies functions.The result of the function is very odd. It manipulates the numeric string and return the result. It is returning very strange result on SQL 2012 as compared to SQL 2008.Example SQL 2008 ManipulateString('1234') returns 2345 On SQL 2012 the same call returns 1155.I am also trying to deploy the same assembly to SQL 2012 server database. I have successfully register the assembly, but the database do not list the exposed methods.
I installed both SQL 2005 developer and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services SP2 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit.
In every version "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" was missing. I uninstalled and reinstalled both version but always "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" was not available and the computer could not find devenv.exe file.
I installed visual studio 2008 as well. For some reason the start menu link for "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" is ""C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEdevenv.exe"" and devenv.exe is not there or anywhere
Hi all. I am using Microsoft Visual Basic .Net 2002 with .NET Framework 1.0. I want to install free SQL Server database. I want to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition but it requires .NET Framework 2.0. If I installed MSDE 2000, it doesnt have that Enterprise Manager.So, how is this possible for me to use the free SQL Server with that Enterprise Manager ? Thanks in advance.
I have Vista Ultimate installed and within Vista .NET Framework 3.0 is installed as a part of the operating system so I can't remove 3.0 Now for MS SQL Server 2005 Express I need .NET Framework 2.0 and the SQL Server 2005 doesn't work with .NET Framework 3.0 Can't install 2.0, get the message that 3.0 is already installed. Is there another version of SQL Server that works with .NET Framework 3.0 and runs under Vista Ultimate? Please help me!!
Hi all, Yesterday, I just downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Express (SQLEXPR.EXE) and tried to install it in my Windows XP Pro PC that is on Microsoft NT 4 LAN System. I got the following error: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 CTP setup The Microfost .NET Framework 2.0 is not installed. Please install before running setup. This morning, I downloaded the NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package Beta 2 (x86) from the Microsoft Download Center and installed it in my Windows XP Pro PC. Then I tried to install the SQL Server 2005 Express (SQLEXPR.EXE) again. This time I got a new error: SQL Server 2005 Setup has detected incompatible components from beta versions of Visual Studio, .NET Framework, or SQL Server 2005. Use ADD or Remove Programs to remove these components, and then run SQL Server 2005 Setup again. I am confused and lost in this installation problem. Was the .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package Beta 2 (x86) a wrong Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 I downloaded and installed in my PC? Where is the right Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 for the SQL Server 2005 Express? Please help and advise. Thanks in advance, Scott Chang
Hello! Recently, I set up server with Windows Web Server 2008 RC1, SQL 2008 Express beta, .NET 3.5, IIS 7. I'm running ASP.NET web application with SQL database. Everything works fine until the first application state on the server expires. After that, any postback that starts a new application state on the server and connects to the database, results in the following error: Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed. Is this a bug that will be fixed in release of Windows / SQL or am I doing something wrong? Many thanks for help, Jan

Is it possible to install SQL Server 2005 Eval on a Virtual PC 2007 client running Server 2008 Beta? Nothing says it isn't possible, it says I need to service pack it right away, but before it gets started it comes up with the error 'sqlcu.dll failed to load'. Anyone know what this is all about?
I just installed Windows Server 2008. The installation also included Web Server.
When I tried to install SQL Server, I got the following warning:
IIS Feature Requirement (Warning)
Messag
IIS Feature Requirement
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) is either not installed or is disabled. IIS is required by some SQL Server features. Without IIS, some SQL Server features will not be available for installation. To install all SQL Server features, install IIS from Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel or enable the IIS service through the Control Panel if it is already installed, and then run SQL Server Setup again. For a list of features that depend on IIS, see Features Supported by Editions of SQL Server in Books Online.
Can somebody advise me on how I can resolve this warning? Would running SP2 take care of this?
if it is supported to install Reporting Services on both the active and passive nodes in an SQL Server Failover Cluster and use the non-active node as a warm standby?We have relatively simple reporting requirements so the idea would be that if Node 1 went down, we could just repoint our users are Node 2 temporarily. Both reporting services instances would be configured to target the same SSRS database running on the SQL Cluster.
Downloading and installing VS 2008 Express also created a Miscrosoft SQL Server folder. How do I install the SQL Server 2005 Express?The following is what I found from the HELP menu bar of the VS 2008 Express. Where can I find the sqlexpr.exe? TIA,Jeffrey
To install SQL Server Express To begin installation, double-click sqlexpr.exe. Note: SQL Server Express is available as a self-extracting executable file (sqlexpr.exe) from both the Visual Studio 2005 CD and the SQL Server Express Web site. SQLEXPR.EXE installs on x86-based computers and to the 32-bit subsystem (WOW64). For more information, see Hardware and Software Requirements (SQL Server Express)
I installed VS 2008 Express with an option to download SQL Server 2005 Express. I noticed there is a '90' folder under my Microsoft SQL Server folder. I assumed this the folder for SQL Server 2005 Express. How do I set up my SQL Server2005 Express, so that I can use some sample databases for my VS 2008 Express? Any difference for SQL Server 2005 Express between VS 2008 Expressdownload and SQL Server 2005 Express download? TIA,Jeffrey

Please tell me what I am missing here. I've got an XP Pro machine with SQL Server Express running and a laptop with XP running the Management Studio Express. This is on my home network which is wireless. I can't see any databases on the XP Pro machine from the laptop. Is there something besides just installing SQL Server that I need to do? I've checked forums, documentation and co-workers but no luck. Thanks in advance
I have installed SQL Server Express with Advanced Services SP1 option. I am not really sure if I should have done this but I could not resist the temptation to have as many options as I could get. I even installed some samples/sample databases.
However, I cannot understand how to start using the SQL Express package which (unlike the Visual Basic 2005 Express or the Web Developer Express I also downloaded) does not show me a start up page. I get SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting and SQL Server Surface Area Configuration, all from Configuration Tools. I have no idea how to proceed.
I am having a problem installing SQL Server Express 2005 from the command line in that it gets part way through and then stops - no message - just terminates. After much rooting around in log files and running a normal install I'm pretty sure that it is stopping because of a warning regarding "Minimum Hardware Requirements".
The laptop I'm trying to install it on is a Samsung X05, Centrino 1.4, 1gb RAM and 60gb free disk space. I've tried it on another laptop (Sony with a higher spec.) and get exactly the same problem.
As far as I can see the hardware spec is well above the recommended minumum so I'm at a loss as to what to try next to overcome the problem. If anyone has any suggestions then I'd be very grateful.
I have installed SQL Server Express on a Windows XP Professional workstation. The installation instructions that I was following said that I had to have .NET Framework 2.0 installed. The instructions said that I should uninstall any versions before I tried to install 2.0. My computer already has version 2.0 and version 3.0 installed, so I did not remove anything.
My problem is that now that I have SQL Express installed I cannot seem to connect to anything. I was specifically trying to convert an Access database to SQL Server format, and I keep getting a "connection failed" error. I don't seem to have any way to start SQL Express. Does it have to be started or is it running by default? What am I doing wrong?
I recently posted this question in the SQL Server Express forum and it was suggested I also post this issue to this forum. In the hope that someone can shed some light on the problem.
A couple of days ago I installed SQL Server Express and it seemed to be running fine. (I've not really had a lot of time to devote to trying it out).
Today I decided to remove the software as I noticed it placed various components on differnet drives (my fault, I think). Anyway I removed everything using Add/Delete Progams and then deleted any folders left behind.
Now I try a fresh install of SQLEXPR_ADV and I get as far as the "Instance Name" dialog and use the default Named instance of SQLEXPRESS and then click Next.
The next dialog box appears with the heading "Existing components". The three check boxes are grayed out. So I click the Details button and the following is presented on screen:
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (SQLEXPRESS) Allowed Action: Maintain (Action is only available from Add or Remove Programs) Reason: Cannot maintain product, to maintain the product go to Add or Remove Programs
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services (SQLEXPRESS) Allowed Action: Maintain (Action is only available from Add or Remove Programs) Reason: Cannot maintain product, to maintain the product go to Add or Remove Programs
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools Allowed Action: Maintain (Action is only available from Add or Remove Programs) Reason: Cannot maintain product, to maintain the product go to Add or Remove Programs
It has been pointed out that the following services should have been stopped prior to removal.
SQL Server Active Directory Helper SQL Server Browser SQL Server FullTest Search (SQLEXPRESS) SQL Server Reporting Services (SQLEXPRESS)
Surely this should be managed by the Add/Remove process!
I was able to successfully re-install the program as long as I created a new instance.
What should be the correct process to remove SQL Server Express and if necessary how do I remove services if they do not get deleted?

I'm new to SQL Express and from the SQL Express DOWNLOAD page you need to install .NET Framework 2 then install SQL Express. After installing .NET Framework 2.0 I then attempt to install SQL Express and I get a message that SQL Server 2005 Setup has detected incompatible components from beta versions of Visual Studio, .NET Framework or SQL Server 2005. I used the Visual Studio removal tool and it took out .NET Framwork. I re-installed this and did a reboot and get the SAME ISSUE! CAN ANYONE GET ME OUT OF THIS MS loop nightmare.
I am working on Win2K Pro & had SQL Server 2005 Express & SQL Server Management Studio installed. The SQL Server name was MerverSQLEXPRESS. Due to some unavoidable reasons, I had to repair (& not re-install) Win2K but after doing so, I found that I am not able to connect to the database server. I uninstalled all the components related to SQL Server 2005 Express (like Management Studio, Support Files, BOL etc.) from my m/c & then restarted my m/c.
After doing so, I first re-installed SQL Server 2005 Express & other related components (I intended to install SQL Server 2005 Management Studio after installing SQL Server 2005 Express). While installing SQL Server 2005 Express, all the steps get executed successfully except for the last one which happens to be SQL Server Database Services. At this point, I get the following error:
An instance with the same name is already installed on this computer. To proceed with SQL Server Setup, provide a unique instance name.
The problem is after I click the OK button, I am not even given the option to change the instance name! The Status message corresponding to SQL Server Database Services just says Setup failed. Refer to the Setup log for details. Finally, when I click the Next button, the next dialog finishes the Setup (showing the Finish button).
Now how do I overcome this problem? Please note that the Authentication mode I am using is Windows Authentication.
Someone please suggest me a concrete solution. It's driving me nuts! My receding hairline is getting further receded!
Lastly, please note that, as far as possible, I would like to keep the instance name as MerverSQLEXPRESS only.
I have a problem installing SQL express from a CD, it installs fine but the installation wizard does not load automatically, so I have tried to setup manually through Add and Remove programs.
But when I get pass System configuration check menu, i do not get the Registration info menu, it goes straight to SQL server express setup and then to another server express setup menu (it skips 3 menu pages) it should have MSML5 components such as SQL setup files, SQL native client, SQL VSS writer etc but it is completely empty. Then I get the finish screen.
However, when I uninstall SQL express, I see the MSML screen with all the components listed before it uninstalls.
I hope this makes sense and I hope someone can help.
