Failed to install Hotfix 4311 for Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (KB2494094) (64-bit)

I have a cluster install at SQL version 10.0.4272. I want to upgrade this to 10.0.4311. When I go through install on passive node it fails with message of "The patch installer has failed to update the shared features. To determine
the reason for failure, review the log files". When I review detail.txt I see error lines below. The OS is Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64-bit.

We would like to know what is required to configure Reporting Services for Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard. Is their a cost associated? I need to inform our IT people what is needed.
Looking forward to your reply, Linda

Driver for Microsoft SQL SERVER 2008 (MII 12.0.X)

Hi,
we have MII 12.0.11 and we need to access a database on Microsoft SQL Server 2008.
I need a suggestion on the driver choice...because the Microsoft JDBC drivers for SQL Server 2008 on the following links officially need at least JDK 5...and for what I know our MII version is based on Netweaver 7.0 on Java 1.4.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=99b21b65-e98f-4a61-b811-19912601fdc9&displaylang=en
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=%20a737000d-68d0-4531-b65d-da0f2a735707&displaylang=en
We are currently using this driver (with database on Microsoft SQL Server 2005)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=c47053eb-3b64-4794-950d-81e1ec91c1ba
which, on the contrary, doesn't support SQL Server 2008.
I don't know how to proceed...
Thanks in advance

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.
Here is the content of log file after the latest failed installation:

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express for SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise 4.0

Hi Expert,
I'm going to install SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise 4.0 on my virtualized system (vmware) composed as: windows server 2008 Enterprise Edition R2 + Tomcat. I have some doubts related to the DB version to choose.
Due to the fact that Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express is bundled with SAP BOE 4.0 I want to use this DB.
However, I saw in the Microsoft Portal that Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express (http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/en/us/product-info/compare.aspx) that:
Number of CPUs     1
Maximum memory utilized     1 GB
Maximum database size     10 GB
These my doubts:
1) Could these characteristics generate performance issues for a production environment?
2) Which is a typical DB size for a production enviroment? could be greater then 10 GB?
3) Can I use Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express in a virtualized system (vmware)?
Thanks in advance for collabortion
regards
gio'

Hi Gio
Remember that the BOE system database (or repository) only has a few tables in it, with really one main table that stores a reference to each folder, report, user, group, server, etc. on the system. So the table and the database itself do not grow very large. In the past year, we have done over 70 SAP BusinessObjects projects and I can't recall one where the database size would even approach 5GB in total, let alone 10GB.
The reason for this is that the database only stores a reference to the physical objects and content within BOE-- the actual reports, universes, etc. are stored on the file system within the Input and Output file repository folders.
And the memory constraints are not really an issue either with BOE-- the database itself does not come under much strain during the day-to-day operation of the server. If you believe that the memory may be an issue, you can always start with SQL Server 2008 Express and then using the new tools in the 4.0 CMC to monitor the memory usage on the server. If you need to, you can move the system database to another SQL Server edition, or alternately move the database to another one of the supported platforms, including Oracle, DB2, etc.
Hope this helps!
regards
David

Error while Installing Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server

I downloaded "Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP" and installed the personal edition. It did not install successfully and gave this error message:
Error while Installing Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server
The specified key was not found while trying to GetValue
- stop installation of all products.
- stop installation of this component only.
The installation of Oracle 9i Database was unsuccessful
The Integration tools and client installed just fine from the same download. Why didn't the database install successfully? All the other components seemed to install just fine and the database appeared to be created - but I could not open it and there was not start menu option for DBA Studio.
I am running Windows 2000 professional with Service Pack 3 on a 2 GHz Pentium4 machine with 512MB Rambus RAM, 32bit color graphics ATI All-in-Wonder card, about 40GB of disk space, a local peer-to-peer network via cat5 cable to another Win2k P3 machine, and Creative Soundblaster Audigy card. Do I need to adjust any network settings? Would it help or hinder if I installed MS IIS? WinNT has a Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) but Win2k has COM+ instead; does that make a difference in terms of the installer looking for MTS? Do I need to configure COM+ in some special way / change settings?

HI Salman,
I am doing the following.
1. I am installing Oracle 10.2.01 Database(Not Client) on my windows Xp laptop. While installation i Choose the custom option and Check the Oracle Windows Interface. In that i check the "Install Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction server" checkbox. The installation goes on fine till 99% and when it tries to install the
Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction server it gives an error saying that "Microsoft Transaction server" was not found on the system.
I had previously installed the same on my laptop and it was working fine. but after uninstallation when i try to re install i get this problem.
If i go to the services.msc option in windows i still see the OracleMTSRecoveryService option even when i have uninstalled oracle. But when i try to start the services i get the following error
Could Not start the OracleMTSRecoveryService on the local computer.
Error 3: The system cannot find the file specified.
Any help on how to resolve this issue will be highly appreciated

Hi,
I was having the same problem and to solve it u have to point your classpath to
mssqlserver4v65.jar in the lib directory of your wl installation, in my case i
did:
set classpath=%classpath%;%WL_HOME%\lib\mssqlserver4v65.jar
I hope it helps.

BEA WebLogic jDriver for Microsoft SQL Server

Will BEA continue to support current and future installations of WebLogic jDriver for Microsoft SQL Server 2000 even though BEA recommends to use the JDBC driver available from Microsoft? A written response is necessary in order to determine our future product development direction.
Thank you for your attention regarding this matter.

Actually, this driver is already documented as deprecated. We intended to remove it from a future
release (most likely, the release after WLS 8.1).
The plan is to ship another driver out-of-the-box. We have been evaluating various drivers
for features, quality, and performance. We are pushing very hard to have this replacement
driver available in 8.1SP01, which will also ship with the WLI/Portal/WLW GA (announced to
ship in July). The most likely candidate is already in testing both at the WLS level and
with the layered products. It also did quite well in an internal performance comparison.

Thank you for your attention regarding this matter.Hi. We intend to deprecate it. We may or may not fix bugs that are found in it in future, and will likely
not do any more development on it, such as implementing any JDBC 2.0 methods. It will be in
our next major release (8), but may not be in future ones.

can anyone tell me whats wrong here please i have tried all that i could possibly do. I cannot see anything wrong here, maybe a fresh set of eyes could. Any help given would be highly appreciated.

Sorry, I didn't see your first first post of your CLASSPATH... I lost in the stack-trace (silly me ;-)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\mssqlserver.jar;
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msbase.jar;
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msutil.jar;Yep, They look like they might be Sequel JDBC drivers to me... So open each of those jars in your zip-utility (winzip or whatever) and see if any of them contain the missing class: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver OR anything which looks similar... Are you certain the 2K and 05 class names are the same?
And If the required class does exist then Q: Does java -jar use the CLASSPATH environment variable at all? ... If I was implementing it wouldn't... too "tacky"... I'd respect the classpath in the manifest, and an explicit -cp switch, but I wouldn't trust the system environment variable to point me to the "correct" required classes... not in a pink fit.
I hope that helps some... these problems can be just sooooo frustrating!
Cheers. Keith.

Hi,
best driver available for MicroSoft SQL server?i-net software has written a solid JDBC driver based on TDS. The trial version is limited to a single connection. http://www.inetsoftware.de/English/Produkte/JDBC_Overview/ms.htm
jTurbo provides jdbc driver for MS SQL Server (www.jTurbo.com).
Merant technologies also provides jdbc driver for MS SQL Server. Find more details at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/downloads/2000/jdbc.asp.Microsoft licenses MERANT's JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000.
I cannot comment which one is the best driver. It depends on your project requirements and the buget alloted.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck.

Free JDBC 4.0 driver for Microsoft Sql Server database

Is there any free JDBC 4.0 driver for Microsoft Sql Server database? The jTDS driver is JDBC 3.0 driver. http://jtds.sourceforge.net/

Sooooooo...
what's wrong with the driver provided by Microsoft themselves? Which is JDBC 4. And free.
