Installing SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition or wait for SP2?

Hi everyone,
  I just received my copy of SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition I ordered.  As usual, before installing, I searched the web for any hint or other stuff on the subject.
  I first found that SP1 was already available.  Honestly I prefer installing using the last version available instead of upgrading.  I found the SP1 install package using the following web address:
http://www.microsoft.com/fr-ca/download/details.aspx?id=35575
  Is this the right install package to use? 
  Now, still reading everything I could find on that SP1, I found stories about major issues with SP1. 
Two examples I remember:
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/770630
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2793634/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0
Two others (not specifically related to SP1):
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlsetupandupgrade/thread/a0da3372-ab3d-4af0-b4c4-0d47163e0e03/
http://www.sqlperformance.com/2012/11/system-configuration/2012-cal-problems
  My question.  Should I wait for SP2?  If so, any target date when it should be available?
  If not, what would you recommend as the logic install sequence?  Should I look for any cumulative update(s)?  Any other "manual settings" I should consider?
  Finally, can someone guide me regarding what options I should choose while installing.  My main goal is to program/build C++, C# applications using VS2010 that will interface with SQL Server for data storage purposes (add/update/delete,
batch update/delete) and reports.
Hope to hear from someone.
Stephane
BTW:  My current setup is the following:
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU  [email protected]
3.00 Go
Vista Ultimate SP2 32bits
Visual Studio 2010 Professional Edition (which will be upgraded to last SP once installed)

Hi again,
  I proceeded with download of CU7.  On Microsoft's webpage, there are several files we can download:
2012_SP1_DAC_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
2012_SP1_AOrcleDes_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
2012_SP1_AOrcleSer_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
2012_SP1_PPExcel_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
SQLServer2012_SP1_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
  Which one I should choose?
  Also, some people reported having problems installing this update.

Thanks again for helping,
Stéphane

    Hi,
    This 3rd time I followed this link. But nothing new, same error.
    Can you please tell me how to do follow, I cannt do the 1st step, how to change the local system to windows level account, vice-versa. It is shown mine as
    Server Configuration Manager(Local) 
    From here I folllowed the steps ---[I cannt insert link/image :-(]
    SQL 2008/R2 setup fails with "Wait on the database engine recovery handle failed" 
    If I right clicked on SQL Server Service, there is no option to change the account. 
    Hello,
    Thanks for your patience,did you tried stesp mentioned in below article
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqljourney/archive/2012/03/16/sql-2008-r2-setup-fails-with-quot-wait-on-the-database-engine-recovery-handle-failed-quot.aspx
    To resolve it, follow these steps:-
    When the installation throws this error, click on OK and allow it to proceed. It will fail for Database Engine, but the SQL Server service should have
    been created. Check the Services console.
    If the service is present, perform the following steps:-
    1. Go to SQL Server Configuration manager, right click on the SQL Server service, and change the service account (if it is local system, give
    it a windows level account, and vice-versa). It might throw a WMI error but you will see the account getting updated anyway. If not, then use the Services console. Change the account for SQL Agent as well.
    Use this link to change sql server service account
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345578.aspx
    2. Next, try to start the service. It should come online.
    3. However, you will not be able to log in to the SQL Server
    4. Now stop the service and start it from the command prompt using -m -c -T3608 parameters.
    5. Now try logging in to the server using admin connection from sqlcmd (sqlcmd admin:<server name>\<instance name> ...)
    6. Once logged in, use the sp_addsrvrolemember '<domain\username>','sysadmin'.
    Also add the builtin/administrators to the sysadmin role
    7. Now stop the service from the command prompt and start it from SQL Server configuration manager
    You should be able to log in to the server now.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • Installing SharePoint 2013 with SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition

    Hi,
    Can we use SQL Server 2012 Developer edition with SharePoint 2013?  One thing that came to my mind was setting max degree of parallelism, is that supported in Developer edition?  Looking forward to your assistance here.
    Thanks,
    kashif

    I'm slightly incorrect. See http://download.microsoft.com/download/6/4/A/64A1EC8F-F575-41E1-9D34-821FA9F98F8E/SQL_Server_2012_Licensing_Reference_Guide.pdf.
    Licensing SQL Server for Non-production Use
    The SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition is a full-function version of the SQL Server software—with all the 
    features and capabilities of the Enterprise edition—licensed under the Developer Tools model, which is a “per 
    user” model. One license is required for each person that accesses or uses the software. 
    When using SQL Server software for development, test or demonstration purposes, only the users are licensed 
    and there is no need for a corresponding license for the actual server systems running SQL Server software in 
    this case. 
    As long as only licensed users have access to the software, customers can install as many copies of the software 
    on any number of servers that are used exclusively for development, test or demonstration purposes. This 
    is significant, because it allows customers to run the software on multiple devices (for testing purposes, for 
    example) without having to license each non-production server system.
    But no, as you can see above, you'll have no issues with the software (Developer Edition is Enterprise Edition with licensing restrictions, but no functionality restrictions).

  • Unable to install SQL Server 2012 Developer

    I have a problem with installing SQL Server 2012 (no matter which edition I choose). Installation usually runs well, but near the end shows up an error:
    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 Setup
    The following error has occurred:
    Wait on the Database Engine recovery handle failed. Check the SQL Server error log for potential causes.
    For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=20476&ProdName=Microsoft%20SQL%20Server&EvtSrc=setup.rll&EvtID=50000&ProdVer=11.0.3128.0&EvtType=0xD15B4EB2%25400x4BDAF9BA%25401306%254026
    BUTTONS:
    OK
    The help link points to not-existing article on MSDN page. After I click OK button, the installation reaches it's end and shows up another, which tells, that Database Engine Services, Reporting Services - Native, Data Quality Services, Full-Text and Semantic
    Extractions for Search and SQL Server Replication failed to install.
    After that I am able to start, for example SQL Management Studio, but cannot connect to database. Also services of SQL Server (Server, Server Agent, Full-text Filter, Reporting Services) are stopped and I am not able to start them manually (any try throws an
    error: "The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details").
    I tried complete reinstalling of SQL Server, cleaning registry entries, different editions of that software - none method helped. Also, I tried the .iso images of installation media on other computers - it worked well and installed without any errors. My OS
    is Windows 8.1 x64.

    Hello,
    Please uninstall SQL server completely from add remove program.Make sure you uninstall it completely
    Now right click on Setup.exe file which is there in SQL Server installable and select run as administrator to start installation.
    On page where you are asked to provide startup account for SQL Server service select NT Authority\System or Local System account.
    This issue is basically after installation SQL Server is not able to bring online database services using account which you selected .Local system account will allow it to come online
    After installation change startup account to domain account with least privilege
    Hope this helps

  • Installing Sql Server 2012 Enterprise edition on Windows 7

    Hello,
    I have a desktop with 1 TB Hard Disk and 8GB RAM. It has Windows 7 installed. I want this to be used as staging server at my work. I installed the SQL Server 2012 Enterprise edition. While installing I used service accounts as default when prompted
    which I normally do while installing on a desktop. But now I want this to be used as a server where people can access this box as they do on a sql server machine .i.e. connect to server using SSMS and get to databases on the server and also remote
    desktop into this machine. So, Is it fine to install with default service accounts?
    Also how can I connect to this newly installed sql server box from another desktop using SSMS?
    Thank You.

    Hello,
    Installation of  SQL server 2012 Enterprise edition on Client machine(Win 7)  is not supported( you can install ) .See below for Hardware and Software requirements for SQL Server 2012.You cannot claim support from Microsoft and I guess statging
    is also important.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506.aspx
    Now to your main question.To connect
    Makes sure Browser service is running
    Make sure you make exception in firewall for SQL Server services and incoming connections
    Make sure you specify correct instance name when connecting from remote

  • Is it possible to install SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition on a Windows Server 2012 Standard Which is installed on a Virtual Machine that is created by Hyper-V?

    Hi
    I have recently bought a Virtual Machine from a data center and installed a Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition on it. As I tried to install the SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition, the data center administrator denied me to do this telling me it is not possible
    to install any licensed Microsoft software on a Windows installed on virtual machine created by Hyper-V. It was really strange for me! I wanna know if this is true.
    Thanks Everybody

    Hi Farid,
    For SQL server running on virtual server please refer to following article :

  • SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition Installation Problem

    Hi,
    I have just been given a new PC by my IT department so am trying to get all the software I need onto the PC. Since I am now running windows 7 I wanted to try SQL Server 2012, however whenever I go to install it, one of the checks always fails as follows:-
    SetupCompatibilityCheck
    Checks whether the current version of SQL Server is compatible with a later installed version.
    This version is not compatible with a later installed version. For more information, see the compatibility information at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=160850.
    All other checks are successful but no matter whether I use the MSDN disc the software is on or the downloaded copy, the software doesn't seem to like my PC. I don't understand how the software can believe there is something
    newer than SQL Server 2012 on the system. When I run the discovery tool elsewhere in the installer it reports that nothing is installed.
    Is anyone able to give me some information on what might be triggering this? I did install Visual Studio 2008 and Visual Studio 2010 on the system prior to this, as well as SQL Server 2008 R2, but I have since removed all of these products again in order
    to try and identify the cause of this problem. Now with nothing left on the system again, it still reports this same error. Could it be something is left over from those installations that is causing this problem? 
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Regards
    Paul

    Hi Paul,
    Any progress?
    This issue you met may be due to there are still registry keys left related to the SQL Server, even though we have uninstalled the SQL Server.
    To fix the issue, we can remove the left keys manually:
    1. Click 'Start' > 'Run' > type 'regedit' > press Enter key.
    2. Backup this registry keys that related to SQL Server under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
    3. Delete keys that relate to SQL Server under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall.
    4. Restart the setup installation.
    If you have any problem, please feel free to let me know.
    Thanks,
    Maggie

  • VM - How do I install sql server 2014 developer edition using my MSDN licence

    If I download it from MSDN, there is only a disk image. The .exe downloads are for the Express edition.

    My advice is don't install the image with SQL Server pre-installed as it will burn through your Azure credits at eye watering speed since you are paying for the SQL Server licence. As Manesh
    says once downloaded you can just double click the ISO and it will mount and open an Explorer window automatically. Only Windows 8 / 2012 onwards though IIRC.

  • Error Calculating InstanceID when installing SQL Server 2012 SP1 on Windows 7 Home Premium SP1

    Hello...
    I know this issue has been on several tickets but I have not been able to find a satisfactory solution.  I am receiving error 0x85640001 "...error calculating instanceid" when I attempt to install SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition DVD. 
    I have downloaded the ISO for the enterprise evaluation product and tried burning it to a DVD-RW and decompressing the ISO to my desktop for installation without success.
    The log files do state the setup process runs into a badimageformat exception.
    I had SQL Server 2008 Developer edition installed on this laptop, but I have completely removed all prior SQL Server instances (using the uninstall wizard in Control Panel).
    Please let me know what you suggest to correct this problem.
    Thank you for your help!

    Hello,
    1. Uninstall any SQL Server 2012 component using Control Panel.
      2. Download the Evalaution Edition from the following link:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29066
      3.Perform an edition upgrade from evaluation edition to developer edition using the current media.

  • SQL Server 2012 Developers Edition

    Will SQL Server 2012 Dev. Ed. work on Small Business Server Standard 2011?
    Thank youi
    Brian Geregach

    Hello,
    Yes, but since you have SBS 2011 Standard you need to apply SP1 for Windows Server 2008 R2 first, then try to install SQL Server 2012.
    If you have SBS 2011 Essentials, you don’t need to apply Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. You can install SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition.
    Hope this helps.
