Download Links Broken for english Sql Server 2012 Express

Hi,
it seems that the download links for Sql Server 2012 Express Edition is broken for the english version.
None of the links on the microsoft download center works.
I am able to download a german version from:
http://www.microsoft.com/de-de/download/details.aspx?id=29062
But changing the language to english results in a "We are sorry, the page you requested cannot be found."
Take care,
Martin

Hello,
I created the following Microsoft Connect item about this issue:
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedbackdetail/view/958840/download-links-are-broken-for-sql-server-2012-express-and-sql-server-2008-r2-express
Hope this helps.

SSMS for SQL Server 2012 Express on Windows Embedded 8 Standard

Hello,
I have installed SQL Server 2012 Express with Advanced Tools (SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe, downloaded from MS website) on Windows Embedded 8 Standard 64-bit. But, when I try to find SQL Server Management Studio, I realized it's not installed (same installation
package works fine on my Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit laptop, where SSMS gets installed). How do I fix this? And any other ways for trouble-shooting DBs on Windows Embedded 8 Standard?
Thanks,
Jay

Below is the content of a summary file for the installation. BTW, I also try to find its ConfigurationFile.ini file for future installation on other computers, but it's not in the folder specified in the summary file either (see below).
Thanks.

Can't find ConfigurationFile.ini for SQL Server 2012 Express

Hello,
I installed SQL Server 2012 Express on my Windows 8.1 Pro laptop with an instance name of SqlExpress. However, when I try to find the ConfigurationFile.ini, I can't find it. I searched all the sub-folders under C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Setup
Bootstrap\Log\, but there is no such file. I need this file for future silent installation on many other computers. Can anybody help with this issue?
Thanks,
Jay

For SQL Server Express edition you need to try with below parameters at the time of installation:
UIMODE=Normal
ACTION=Install
For more information look at below link

SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB parm for keeping unicode char

in developer's windows 8.1 pc, the SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB does not seem to keep Unicode like \U2221. it get translated to the plain - instead of keeping as
−.
what parameter od I need to setup to make sure it keep such character as is

Hi fs - ab,
You know that this forum is to discuss the VS IDE, to make this issue clearly, could you share us a screen shot for this issue? Where did you change your localDB with Unicode?
I did some research about it.
LocalDB supports two kinds of instances: Automatic instances and named instances.
•Automatic instances of LocalDB are public. They are created and managed automatically for the user and can be used by any application. One automatic instance of LocalDB exists for every version of LocalDB installed
on the user’s computer. Automatic instances of LocalDB provide seamless instance management. There is no need to create the instance; it just works. This allows for easy application installation and migration to a different computer. If the target machine
has the specified version of LocalDB installed, the automatic instance of LocalDB for that version is available on the target machine as well. Automatic instances of LocalDB have a special pattern for the instance name that belongs to a reserved namespace.
This prevents name conflicts with named instances of LocalDB. The name for the automatic instance is a single v character followed by the LocalDB release version number in the format xx.x. For example, v11.0 represents SQL Server 2012.
•Named instances of LocalDB are private. They are owned by a single application that is responsible for creating and managing the instance. Named instances provide isolation from other instances and can improve performance
by reducing resource contention with other database users. Named instances must be created explicitly by the user through the LocalDB management API or implicitly via the app.config file for a managed application (although managed application may also use
the API, if desired). Each named instance of LocalDB has an associated LocalDB version that points to the respective set of LocalDB binaries. The instance name of a LocalDB is sysname data type and can have up to 128 characters. (This differs from regular
named instances of SQL Server, which limits names to regular NetBIOS names of 16 ASCII chars.) The name of an instance of LocalDB can contain any Unicode characters that are legal within a filename.
A named instance that uses an automatic instance name becomes an automatic instance.
Reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh510202(v=sql.110).aspx
It seems that it is related to the SQL Server, am I right? If so, maybe the SQL Server forum would be better for this issue.
If I have misunderstood this issue, please feel free to let me know.
Best Regards,
Jack

SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB parm for keeping unicode char from TextBox

Platform: developer's windows 8.1 pc with visual studio 2012 pro, .net 4.5, sql express 2012 express and localDB
in a textbox, say textTbx on a windows form, if there is Unicode like \U2221, I can have to save to file and read back without change using textTbx.Text value.
however for the content in the textTbx.Text value, upon saving to
SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB, and then retrieved, the content gets changed for some Unicode like
U2221. it get translated to the plain - instead of keeping as
−.
what parameter do I need to setup to make sure it keep such character as is?
Btw: I had posted to visual studio general forum but was asked to post here

Hello,
In this case, we could convert the text value to varbinary type before storing them to sql, and we could convert it back to the encoded one, you could change UTF-8 to the one you are dealing with.
You could refer to the suggestions shared by Filip Ekberg in the following thread.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11859926/load-or-convert-varbinary-from-sql-to-textbox-text
Here's an example on how you convert a text to bytes and then back again:
var bytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("test");
This will give you a byte array that looks like this:
{ 116, 101, 115, 116 }
Now to get the text again, you can use Encoding.UTF8.GetString() like this:
Encoding.UTF8.GetString(bytes);
This means that you could simple do this when saving the value:
cmdb.Parameters.AddWithValue("@text", Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(textreview.Text));
And then when loading it back you simply do this:
textreview.Text = Encoding.GetString((byte[])dr["text"]);
Regards.
Carl

VB 2012 Express and SQL server 2012 Express

My Windows 7 computer just crashed and I am trying to resurrect my VB 2012 Express code. I have been using Access 2007 but lost my license info and installation media, so I am considering a change to SQL server 2012. I have downloaded it, but
I haven't a cue as to how to use it. I need to convert my old Access 2007 data and then connect the result to my VB 2012 code.
Please help.

I know how to use a database engine, but what I downloaded as SQL server 2012 Express seems to be something else. I am in <st1:place w:st="on">Africa</st1:place> and things don't work well here. I
have an app that says SQL error and usage reporting, and when I answer the questions nothing happens. This must not be the SQL 2012 Server Express (or is it?). Maybe you can point me to a useful download link. What I have is totally obscure.
Here is my goal: I have a completed VB 2012 project that uses Access 2007. My Windows 7 computer crashed and I am desperately trying to move the application to a Windows 8 machine. I do not
have my installation disks for Access, so I thought I would give SQL server a try. I obviously downloaded the wrong thing. The Microsoft web site gives me the following download choices - none of these make sense and they are not explained - please
help - I downloaded the first one and it seems useless:

SQL Server 2012 express istallation failing to install "Database Engine Service" and "SQL Server Replication"

I ran SQL Server 2012 express setup as user with administrator privileges and still it's failing to install "Database Engine Service" and "SQL Server Replication".
Any and every ideas on how to resolve this issue is greatly appreciated.

Three weeks passed and I am yet to find a fix for the the failed installation of the database engine on sql server 2012 express installation. I have tried various work-around including uninstalling, deleting all the directory paths, and reinstallation. Still
not able to successfully install sql server 2012 express.
I will greatly appreciate any and every contribution towards resolving this issue. Thanks in advance.

SQL Server 2012 Express - Could not load the file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop

Windows 7 Home Premium, SP1
64-bit
I just installed SQL Server 2012 express - Express with Advanced Services (contains the database engine, Express Tools, Reporting Services, and Full Text Search),
file name - SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.
Opening SQL Server Management Studio causes the error -
"Could not load the file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop,
Version=7.1.40304.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The
system cannot find the file specified."
Do I need to install another file? Did I download the wrong version?
Any suggestions? Thanks for any help.

Hello,
The issue may occure when the installation of your SQL Server is not a complete or a successful one. Did you try to repair or reinstall the SQL Server Express? You can also try to install
Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2012
to check if the issue presists.

SQL Server 2012 Express on Window 8.1 64 bit version?

Hi,
I´m trying to install SQL Server 2012 Express on Windows 8.1 64 bit version. When I reach the point of "Installing Setup Files", of the installation process, the installation seems to halt. I´ve tried both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of SQL 2012
Express. I´ve installed SQL 2012 Express several times before on other Windows versions but I´ve never encountered this problem. Is it a known SQL Server 2012 Express/Windows 8.1 64 bit compability problem?
Thanks in advance!
Martin

Reports & Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB support policy

Hello,
Willing to move some databases into Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (2014) Express LocalDB, I have tryed to map some reports on that database.
Using OLE DB SQL Native Client (v11) and SAP CR RunTime SP10 (>SP9), I still have trouble when using this data source:
After drawing some simple reports (standard ones with 2-3 fields from the database):
- VS designer:
+ when "checking database" or "getting a preview" of the report, it always complains about missing tables.
+ when trying to "re-map" tables from one SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB to another one it fails, complaining about not findind resources.
- Running application (.NET 4.0, 32 or 64-bits):
+ without any change to the report configuration: CR Viewer complains with multiple error codes (17, ...) that it cannot find the tables
+ trying to change the configured database from the report: CR VIewer complains with some more error codes
=> Is Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB now officially supported by CR ?
=> Is changing datasource/database configuraton during execution now officially supported by CR ?
Feel free to provide an any links / howto's / white paper about how managing Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB with SAP CR !
Many thanks in advance.
Regards.

Don,
I did not want you to think that I am not willing to change anything...
The issue is that LocalDB specs (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms130822(v=sql.110).aspx) are not (seems not) fulfiled by what SAP APIs provide.
Following specs, I need to provide ADO DB/SQL Native Client v11 an "AttachDBFileName" property which, for LocalDB instance, is equal to the DatabaseName property (check below screenshot from MS Mgmt Studio connected to a SQL Server 2012 LocalDB instance).
Moreover, OLEDB discovery provide in CR 2013 UI this same list of "DatabaseName":
When connected, this same CR 2013 UI got the right "view" of connected "MDF-labelled" names:
Moreover, CR connected datasource properties also provide an "initial catalog" (databasename) value with that "MDF-labelled" name:
That is what I saw previously in API dumped objects and what I tryed to reproduce in my code:
As previously explained, after adding tables, I am also beeing able to add fields from those tables in my fresh-new report document:
It fikrst shows results in preview but as soon as I try to refresh / add some more fields / ask CR to "check database" / "change database source", the interface always complain about having "lost" objects:
Site note for Ludek Uher: CR 2013 StandaAlone fresh-new builded reports are not working neither using CR runtime SP10 when opening/updating that report..
So YES, I am OK to change whatever is required but please explain me what to use/put into the "crConnectioninfo.DatabaseName" property for a SQL Express 2012 LocalDB case.
Or leave it as is, LocalDB not being supported by CR ...
(all my reports & c# code are working well while using SQL Express 2012 "classic" (not localdb)).
Thanks again for your time.
Regards.

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
