Visual Studio prevents SQL 2008 Express installation on win 8.1

I wanted to install SQL Express 2008 on my Win 8.1 desktop. It gives an error indicating that I should install Visual Studio 2008 SP1 first. I tried, but SP1 installation fails. I also tried to remove VS2008 completely but I still get the same fail when
installing SQL 2008 Express.
Now I cannot even install SQL Manager 2008, to manage database on SQL server.

Hello,
You should install SQL Server 2008 Express with SP3 included to make it compatible with Windows 8.1. Please try the following download:

Where is the management Studio for SQL 2008 Express?

Can anyone point me to where I can download the management studio for SQL 2008 Express.
I've downloaded and installed SQL 2008 Express without problem but can't find the management studio.
Help.

Paradox1 said:
The 2008 version of the Management Studio is not a stand alone installation and can only be installed as part of the SQL Server 2008 Express with Tools or Advanced installation.
Like many others, I spent countless hours trying to figure out how to install the Management Studio for SQL Server 2008 Express - Advanced installation (same should apply to the w/ Tools version). What happened in my case was that I installed Visual Studio 2008 Express and during that process a stripped down "Instance" of SQL Server 2008 was installed that did not include the Management Studio. Through much pain and torture I learned that the Management Studio can only be installed during installation of the first instance. To delete that first instance, you must go to "Add or Remove Programs" and remove "Microsoft SQL Server 2008". The removal process will only remove one instance at a time and if you have installed more than one instance you need to keep going until all instances have been removed and the application completely disappears from the Add or Remove Programs" dialog. Note: You do not need to uninstall any of the other SQL Server 2008 applications that also appear in the "Add or Remove Programs" dialog. Then go back through the install process as follows: Double click on SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe to load the SQL Server Installation Center and then go to Installation > New SQL Server stand-alone installation. Then proceed through all of the installation steps until you get to “Feature Selection” and click on “Select All” to toggle on all of the Shared Features, which should include Management Tools - Basic.Continue the process from there and you should be good to go. Hopefully this will help others to avoid much of the pain that many of us have already experienced.

Groupwise.wsdl in Visual Studio Web Developer 2010 Express

Hello,
I'm trying to add a "Service Reference" in VS Web Developer 2010 Express by importing the groupwise.wsdl file.
Everything looks fine when importing the file/adding the reference but when using it several things are missing (e.g. there is no GroupWiseBinding)
I tried with the groupwise.wsdl file of GW 8 and GW 7 SP3.
Should I use another .wsdl file or is this just not supported by VS Web Developer? (it works fine in Visual Studio 2010 Express)
Tx, vha

Replying to an old thread, but since i walked into this problem myself and google could not not help me, maybe this is usefull for others.
In Visual Studio 2010 (and 2008) you will need to add a Web Reference, not a Service Reference.
This is done by right clicking on References, selecting "Add Service Reference", clicking Advanced, and then "Add Web Reference".

Win App Deployment include SQL 2008 Express - Check if any SQL Server version already exist

Hi there
I have a application that is deploying and installing correctly (Setup and Deployment Project in VS 2008) and has SQL 2008 Express as a pre-requisite. SQL Express installs fine if not found but I don't want it to be installed if any other version of SQL
Server already exists on the target computer. What do I have to adjust in the Bootstrapper package (package.xml or product.xml) for SQL Express to do this check? Is the change done within the Bootstrapper package? Do I have to create a Custom Action
in my Deployment project for this check? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Dweezil

Hi Dweezil,
If you use SQL Express Bootstrapper, you can add the SqlExpressChk.exe package file in the product.xml to check that if SQL Server is already exists.
However, please note that SqlExpressChk.exe is limited to only the default instance name, SQLEXPRESS, it won't detect other named instances. A registry check is required when detecting existing SQL Server with custom instance name.
For more details, please review this
blog.

Sql 2008 express not listening on port 1433

I installed sql 2008 express on 2008R2 but it is not listening on port 1433.
I check configuration for tcp and enabled that already. also started sql browser service.
any idea?

I installed sql 2008 express on 2008R2 but it is not listening on port 1433.
I check configuration for tcp and enabled that already. also started sql browser service.
any idea?
by default SQL Server Express does not enable Remote Connections.
Could you check the following:
1) check that the SQL Express is running (SQL Server Configuration Tool)
2) log onto the box containing the SQL Server and try to connect with SSMS to the SQL Express instance. Try tcp/ip and/or shared memory to connect.
if you can successfully login check that the SQL Server does allow Remote Connections
3) Firewall does not block incoming connections
4) does the DNS server name resolve to the correct ip address of the SQL Server ?

Crystal 2008 EVALUATION broke Visual Studio Team System 2008 Developer Ed.

After installing the Crystal 2008 EVALUATION, I can no longer edit Crystal Reports in Visual Studio Team System 2008 Developer Edition. When I open the report I get a blank grey screen instead of the designer.
Please help.

Hi,
I'm half way there. I can edit the reports in Visual Studio now. So thanks for that.
My other problem is when I try to construct a report using the ReportDocument class I get this exception from the constructor:
An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime. Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient, or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly. Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com/support for more information.
I'm on Vista Ultimate, 64 bit.
I installed Crystal 2008 SP1. Then I downloaded cr121_redist_install.zip and installed CRRuntime_12_1_mlb.exe.
Any suggestions?
Here's my code:
          public string ExecuteReportImmediate( string reportName )
               ReportDocument doc = new ReportDocument( );
               doc.Load( @"C:\Reports\xyz.rpt" );
               string guid = Guid.NewGuid( ).ToString( );
               string pdfFile = Path.Combine( _serverPath, guid + ".pdf" );

How to make data base link from oracle 11g r2 to microsoft sql 2008 express

I need to make data base link from oracle 11g r2 to microsoft sql 2008 express to make replication between then
please help me !
I didn't know what is the user and password in the command which create database link

To replicate data you can ude Database Gateway for ODBC or Database Gatewy for MS SQl Server. Please use the search engine of this forum if you ant to get more details about each product.
Some SQl Servers are set up to use Windows authentication only. In this case you won't be able to connect to the SQL Server as Windows authentication isn't supported with the gateways. You have to make sure your SQL server is supporting username and password authentication - a common user is the "sa" user. Regarding the username/password, please get in touch with your SQL Server Admin.

Providing configuration file for SQL 2012 Express installation which installing HPC 2012 R2

Hi guys,
I need to know if there is any way to provide configuration file for SQL 2012 Express installation which installing HPC 2012 R2?
I am scripting installation on HPC 2012 R2 with default SQL 2012 Express edition but I am not able to find any option to provide a configuation file for SQL 2012 Express installaiton.
Thanks,
Vivs.

Hi Vivs,
As my understanding, you want to generate a configuration file and install SQL Server 2012 express edition using that configuration file.
If that is the case, firstly, you could generate the configuration file following the steps below since express edition is run in AutoAdvance mode which skips "Ready to Install" page.
1.Double-click SQL Server installation file in your local drive, you will see that the file will be extracted to a temporary folder. Please make a note of what directory it is extracted to. For example, it could be in c:\ followed by a folder name which
will be a set of random letters and numbers "gy7h8hjhhj67rfs7".
2.Cancel installation. Then click on the Start button on the task bar, click run, type the command cmd.exe, and go to that directory via cmd.
3.Execute the following command: setup.exe /ACTION=INSTALL /UIMODE=Normal
4.Follow the wizard through to the 'Ready to Install' page. The path to the configuration file is specified in the 'Ready to Install' page in the configuration file path section.
5.Cancel the setup without actually completing the installation, to generate the INI file.
Secondly, to install SQL Server using Command Prompt, go to the SQL Server installation media root (the temporary folder) from the command prompt and specify the ConfigurationFile.ini as a parameter as shown below.
Setup.exe /ConfigurationFile=ConfigurationFile.INI
For more information about the process, please refer to the article:

Crystal Report 13 Visual Studio 2010 SQL Server 2008 R2 ODBC Problem

Hi Everybody,
I am new in Crystal Report.
I developed a web application in Visual Studio 2010, and my Database is SQL Server 2008 R2.
I created reports using Crystal Report 13 in Visual Studio and my Operating System is Windows 7 32-Bit.
I used ODBC Connection System DNS for my application.
It is running fine even after Hosting on my local PC.
But it creates problem when hosted on my Team Leader PC and Test Server.
Their Configurations are same but only difference is "SQL Server 2008" Not R2
The Error I am getting is "Failed to open the connection".
When I Host the same on my another team member PC, I am getting the error like
"Failed to open the connection. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 4060 ] Database Connector Error: ' [Database Vendor Code: 4060 ]' Failed to open the connection. Failed to open the connection. TestVr {CE268132-D2BD-43EC-BE45-0BCD847FBCDA}.rpt Details: [Database Vendor Code: 4060 ]"
I tried various solution to fix this bug.
But i am unable to do this and not getting any idea to fix this issue.
If anyone can guide I will be thankful to him.
All suggestions are appreciable.
Thank you

Most probably the issue is missing database client driver / provider.
Install the driver used to connect the rpt to the db on the server and then create a 32 bit DSN with the same name as the dev machine..
Hope this helps,

Hello,
Please try to uninstall all SQL Server components using Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs.
If you have already uninstalled SQL Server before trying to reinstall, please perform the following steps to manually uninstall SQL Server:
1. Uninstall all SQL Server components you can using Control Panel -> Programs and Features
2. Backup the registry.
3. Delete the following keys in regedit:
--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server
--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer
4. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and delete all the sub-keys referencing SQL Server.
5. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services and delete all the keys referencing SQL Server.
6. Rename all the SQL Server folders in the computer like
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server and subfolders.
Once you have uninstalled, please try to reinstall again.
Hope this helps.

Have you found any error in event logs?

Dear Charles!
Am trying to install SQL Server 2008 on Windows server 2008 R2 for the last five days but getting errors continuously like:
1. SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:
Invoke or BeginInvoke cannot be called on a control until the window handle has been created..
2.
MicroSoft Net framework: unhandled exception occurred in your application.
An error occurred creating the configuration section handler for userSettings/Microsoft.SqlServer.Configuration.LandingPage.Properties.Settings: Could not load file or
assembly ‘System, Version=4.0.0.0, ............
As you suggested
I tried to install
Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 but it doesnt run on it, then I installed
Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0.30319.1 it is installed on it.
Then I installed
Windows Installer 4.5 too
But my problem is not solved, kindly help me asap.
Ques: I am a user as “administrator” in the system, is it enough or have I to log in as a main administrator of the system.

How can I double-click a file to open it in default app in my Visual Studio project without creating an installer?

I have an app with code to open a file by double-clicking on it. The app in my Visual Studio project file should start automatically and then open the file automatically. I double-click on the file, then look for the app in my solution folder (I choose the
.exe in the Debug folder). Am I choosing the correct .exe file?
What I'm trying to do is test some code I wrote that will open the associated file type when I double click on it, as opposed to creating an installer, installing the app and then double-clicking on the file to see if it will open in the associated app automatically.

Hi dudefromthebronx,
Yes, I think you could doubt click the .exe file in your local machine.
Of course, maybe you could get it in Bin\Debug or Bin\Release folder, it is related to the current project settings.
