SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio 2008, download and install

Hello,
I have been looking for a while now on where to download and how to install BIDS 2008 on top of my current SQL Server 2008 installation but no luck yet. Would you mind helping me out please.
FYI, here is my current configuration:
- SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server Management Studio installed
- Visual Studio 2008 installed before the above.
I've read that I could find a new kind of project (BIDS one) in visual studio but I can't. And from other sources, I should find a link in "All Programms > Microsoft SQL Server 2008 > Business Intelligence Development Studio" but cannot.
Thank you in advance for pointing me to the download page or any kind of post that could help me out getting this.
Regards,
J.

Which edition of SQL Server 2008 you had installed? Is it SQL 2008 Express? If yes, then make sure you had installed it with Advanced Services:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=B5D1B8C3-FDA5-4508-B0D0-1311D670E336&displaylang=en
If you had installed SQL Server 2008 from a CD or Media, then you can run the installation media, and make sure you had selected BIDS as an option, along with Management Tools.
SQL Server Management tools include the following components:
SQL Server Management Studio
SQL Server Profiler
SQL Server Database Tuning Advisor
Command prompt tools, such as sqlcmd.exe and osql.exe.
Business Intelligence Development Studio add-ins to Microsoft Visual Studio
Note that Business Intelligence Development Studio is a separate option during SQL Server installation.
Hope this helps...

Deployment of SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio (2008 R2)

Looking for some guidance on deploying SQL Server Business Intelligence Development studio (2008 R2). I have a requirement from our Data Warehouse developers, and they require the SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio deployed to
the server that will hold the production data warehouse. Is the SQL Server Business Intelligence development studio normally deployed on a production server?
I am hesitant about installing the SQL Server Business Intelligence Development studio since it's a development tool. I haven't seen anything that it is required to run the developed objects.
Any information you can provide will be appreciated.
Thanks.
DJ

Hi DonsJones,
The SQL Server Business Intelligence Development studio (BIDS) is a client tool for BI Projects development and won’t be installed on the production server in most cases. For a DW/BI system, the BIDS is generally used to develop ETL packages, Data Mining,
and Reporting. The development activities should be performed in the Dev environment, and the eventually ETL packages or reports should be deployed to the production server or report server. For a production server that will run the ETL packages (usually in
SQL Server Agent jobs), SSIS should be installed on the production server.

Multi-byte characters are garbled in SQL Server Business Intelligent Development Studio (Visual Studio) 2008

Hi,
I'm revising an existing report which was developed by my predecessor. Though it works fine in the production environment, when I open the .rdl file with SQL Server Business Intelligent Studio (Visual Studio) 2008 on my client
PC, I find all the multi-byte characters are garbled. When I open it with the BIDS (the same version) on the server, it shows everything correctly.
The fonts for the controls (labels) are Tahoma and it's originally only for alphabets, but multi-byte characters are supposed to be displayed in MSGOTHIC by Font Link as they are displayed correctly on the server.
Could anyone advise me how to solve this issue? I know I can fix it by changing the fonts from Tahoma to MSGOTHIC for all the contrls, but I don't want to do it.
Environment:
My PC：Windows7 64bit /Visual Studio 9.0.30729.1 / .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
Server：Windows Server 2003 R2 /Visual Studio 9.0.30729.1 / .NET Framework 3.5 SP1
Garbled characters sample:
FontLink - SystemLink
Please let me know if you need any more information. I would appreciate your advice!

Hi nino_miya,
According to your description, when you display the report in client side, characters are garbled.
In your scenario, please check if the Language is the same as the report on production server. Also please check if the data of Tahoma in registry on client PC is the same as server. If those two settings are the same, please specify font of the each
control as MSGOTHIC manaually on client PC.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How come the SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio will not recognize my AdventureWorksDW after installation?

I am trying to do the tutorial for SQL Server Business Intelligence Studio, but I can't get the AdventureWorksDW to be recognized by it, when I try to connect to it.
I have tried to shut down, restart, downloaded a couple of different versions of AdventureWorksDW (I believe 2008 is the one I need), and tried to attach this AdventureWorksDW using SQL Server Management Studio 2008R2, but I cannot even do that! The instructions
for attaching a DB tell me to open Management Studio, then open a connection instance. But then I cannot find the database button to right click on, or the attach item in the menu that is supposed to be there with it.
I had installed AdventureWorks2008R2 previously and the SQL Server BIDS sees that, but of course I cannot do the tutorial without some serious mods if I do that. I have rebooted computer, closed and reopened the BIDS app, deleted and re-created the
OLE-DB connection in BIDS, but nothing works. What am I doing wrong? I've worked in mostly the Oracle world for most of my career so I'm not new to either DW or relational DB, but this one is driving me to pull my hair. Any help greatly appreciated!
Badger

Thank you! Is this correct?
CREATE DATABASE AdventureWorksDW2008R2_data
ON
(FILENAME
=
'C:\SSIS Downloads\AdventureWorksDW2008R2_Data')
FOR
ATTACH_REBUILD_LOG
I tried this and it gives me a cannot find file specified error, but my file IS located at
C:\SSIS Downloads
error is:
Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
Unable to open the physical file "C:\SSIS Downloads\AdventureWorksDW2008R2_Data". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)".
I will continue to play with it, thanks very much!
Try as below,
sp_attach_single_file_db 'AdventureWorksDW2008R2'
,'C:\SSIS Downloads\AdventureWorksDW2008R2_Data.mdf'

I can't see sql server express 2012 from ssms 2008 R2 -- what do I need to download?

I'm running sql server 2008 R2 Developer on a win7 (pro) workstation. I would like to keep this installation because it has SSRS and Analysis Server. But I was not able to attach a sql 2012 DB so I downloaded Sql Server Express 2012 (per the
picture below - 1st option selected) and installed it. Sql Server Express 2012 appears to be running -- per my services list, but I cannot see the instance in ssms 2008 R2. Do I need to uninstall Sql Server Express 2012 and then download another
option (from the picture below)? How should I proceed so that I can have a working/workable instance of Sql Server Express 2012 that I can see in ssms (whatever required version) and also keep sql server 2008 R2? which download should I select (from
the picture below?
Rich P

Should I uninstall Sql server 2012 first?
Rich P
No you do not need to uninstall any thing
>> Sql Server Express 2012 appears to be running -- per my services list, but I cannot see the instance in ssms 2008 R2.
You need to just download SQL Server 2012 express management studio and use that to connect to SQL Server 2012. And use SSMS 2008 r2 to connect to SQL Server 2008 r2.
This File :ENU\x64\SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe
Although I guess SSMS 2012 express with SP2 would work just fine and you would connect to 2008 R2 database using that.

SQL Server 2012 with Visual Studio 2013 with SSIS/Integration services project?

I wanted to build an integration services project to import data from multiple sources using a vendor's API.
I wish I could recall how I got to the point where I was able to build one and have it run successfully, but I had to install so many things that I honestly don't remember.
However, I noticed my PC booting really slowly after that, and I saw that I had components of VS 2010, VS 2012 and VS 2013 installed, along with SQL Server 2008 and 2012. So I uninstalled a bunch of stuff, hoping to get to where I had only the most
current versions of all, that were compatible with my corporate environment. So I was aiming for Visual Studio 2013 (Premium, I think) and SQL Server 2012.
Took me 2 days. Now I'm at the point where I think - and I'm here to learn if I'm correct - that I cannot get an oData Source component into my project and use VS 2013 IF I want to stick with Sql Server 2012. Is that correct?
I get very confused when trying to determine how the acronyms relate: SSIS, SSDT, SSDT-BI, etc.

Hi Anonymous11847,
SSDT: Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2010, it contains Business Intelligence project templates for Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services that support Visual Studio 2010. This can be installed when SQL Server is
installed. It supports various SQL Server versions as follows:
SSAS projects can target SQL Server 2012 or lower
SSRS projects can target SQL Server 2012 or lower
SSIS projects can target only SQL Server 2012
SSDT-BI for VS 2012: Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012, it contains Business Intelligence project templates for Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services that support Visual Studio 2012.
This needs to be separately downloaded and installed. It supports various SQL Server versions as follows:
SSAS projects can target SQL Server 2012 or lower
SSRS projects can target SQL Server 2012 or lower
SSIS projects can target only SQL Server 2012
SSDT-BI for VS 2013: Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013, it contains Business Intelligence project templates for Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services that support Visual Studio 2013.
This needs to be separately downloaded and installed. It supports various SQL Server versions as follows:
SSAS projects can target SQL Server 2014 or lower
SSRS projects can target SQL Server 2014 or lower
SSIS projects can target only SQL Server 2014
So if the SQL Server version is SQL Server 2012, we should install SSDT or SSDT-BI for VS2012 to create SSIS project.

Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools Update

Setup closed with exit code: 0x84C40013 - Silent Install error - SQL Server 2012 express management studio SP1

I am trying to create a silent installation package for SQL Server 2012 Express Management Studio SP1. (both x86 & x64)
Prior to installation I have performed the following :
1. Turned ON the Windows feature 'Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1' (I had read somewhere on the internet that this is required prior to installation)
2. Installed Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
I am using the following command line to perform an unattended install :
<EXENAME> /Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
However, the installation fails abruptly.
The application installs successfully with the following command line :
<EXENAME> /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
The error occurs only while attempting to install the application with the /Q switch appended.
Please help.

Hello Fanny,
Thanks for providing the link to the SQL Server 2012 unattended install guide.
However, I must highlight that I was running the setup.exe with "Run As a Administrator" option and still facing the issue.
Anyways, I found out the root cause and I must say that it was a rather silly one.
As I had stated previously, the following command line was causing the issue :
<EXENAME>
/Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
I simply changed it to the following and it worked....
<EXENAME>
/QUIET /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=INSTALL /FEATURES=TOOLS
It so seems that everything must be in CAPITALS for this to work.

Soumen
