How to install a Business Contact Manager 2013 database on SQL Server 2014

When I use the BCM Database Tool 2013 to create a database on a server, it doesn't pick up on any of my SQL Server 2014 instances. So far I can only get it to pick up SQL Server 2008 R2 instances in order to install the BCM database.
Someone mentioned that it works with SQL Server 2012, so is there any way to get it work on the 2014 version? I don't want to have to install 2008 or 2012 just for the sake of BCM.

event if 3355 means 3 things:
The SQL Server might be offline.
The SharePoint Foundation database access account might not have the necessary permissions to communicate with the SQL Server.
A firewall that runs on either the local server or on SQL Server might be blocking network communications.
Big question, how you trying to connect SQL windows or sql authentication? is it throwing error on Config wizard or somewhere else?

Business Contact Manager 2013

Where can I find or locate detailed installation, setup, and or configuration information for Business Contact Manager 2013?
Our existing shared database is located on a workstation but I would like to install and setup BCM Admin Tool onto one of our servers.
We have 25+ users accessing the shared database.

HI,
I am also having trouble with BCM/Outlook 2013 on Windows 8.
We were previously running BCM/Outlook 2010 with no problems at all. I then upgraded to OUtlook 2013 and BCM no longer worked. After many attempts and suggested remedies BCM 2013 is still not working.
The problem I currently have is that when outlook starts BCM is not there because the add-in has been disabled (both BCM for outlook and BCM loader for outlook add ins). I can go into the addins and enable them and BCM then works, but when I close
and re-open outlook the addins are once again disabled.
Also, when the addins are enabled and BCM is 'working', the BCM icon or title does not appear in the Peek bar (lower left hand side of outlook interface), I only get a folder.
I have tried the Regedit fix - no luck.
I have run the BCM2010-V4C-x86-en-US.exe patch - no luck.
I have installed the BCM 2013 tools on the server (shared db) - no luck
I have uninstalled all office and bcm instances from the machine and reinstalled only office and bcm 2013 (BCM2010-BCMSetup-x86-en-US) - no luck.
Can someone from Microsoft please assist with this issue as I have spent nearly 3 days trying to resolve it.
Thanks, Joe.

Business Contact Manager 2013 Contactmanagement wrong fields phone, mobile etc.

Hi,
we have a Problem on some PC's with the Contactview. The Background:
Database: SQL-Server 2008 Express (central Windows Server 2008)
Outlook: 2013
Contact Manager: Business Contact Manager 2013
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
We have started the Import/export-tool from the BCM and selected my old contactsfolder in Outlook. The importprocess runs without any Problems but ..
any PC's from my colleagues shows unter the Contactview wrong fieldnames on mobilephone- or any phoneentries with the same Outlook and OS.
In my case, i can see the right entry unter a contact for mobilephone like +49 12345678. The same contact shows the mobilephone with the fieldname like businessphone or Pager. I don't know why?
EDIT: In my case the contactview looks like the standard outlook contactsview. The View doesn't show any BCM fields like "Linked account" or "linked company". I'm gonna crazy ... BCM tab and navigation-pane are allready loaded in my outlook
profile...but the contactview shows the standard contactsview.
Any Ideas?
An answer will oblige.

Business Contact Manager 2013 Issue with drop down menus not working correctly and BCM disappearing.

We upgraded from BCM 2007 to BCM 2013. Now the BCM disappears from Outlook occasionally and the drop down menus are confused. for instance when accessing the drop down for phone numbers, the user selects company - but the field for TTY/TDD comes up.
Shows fields that don't exist etc.
The client is using Office 2013 Pro Premium from Office 365 Small Business Premium subscription and BCM downloaded from Microsoft website.
Please let me know what the support avenues are for this product.
Chris Smith

Hi,
This issue may be caused since the BCM was not installed properly.
Please go to Control Panel -> Programs and Features, find Business Contact Manager for Microsoft Outlook and Uninstall it.
Then go to
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36513, download the right version of BCM(32bit or 64bit) and install it.
If issue persists, you may provide the screenshots of the issue, post them to SkyDrive and share it via a link:https://skydrive.live.com/, then we will have a better understanding on the issue.

Microsoft Business Contact Manager 2013, addiiton MSSQL NT Service accounts and Sysprep deployment on WIndows 7

Hi all,
I'm running into a problem when trying to sysprep and deploy a Windows 7 image with Business Contact Manager pre-install during the audit mode. Before anyone shouts, I have posted the main question in the Windows 7 deployment forum, but I would like some
additional help as to what the "NT Service" Accounts are for with regards to the BCM insatalltion
During the installation of BCM, we get an installation of MSSQL, and during this installation MSSQL creates three user accounts used by the "NT Service" account:
MSSQL$MSSMLBIZ
MSSQLFLDLauncher$MSSMLBIZ
ReportServer$MSSMLBIZ
When you run 'sysprep' with generalise option, and use the CopyProfile in the Specialise pass, sysprep copies the profile information from the last 'changed' profile. Whilst this should be the Administrator profile (as far as I can see), what is happening
is that the profile from 'ReportServer$MSSMLBIZ' is being used.
The rule of thumb when using the CopyProfile option is to ensure that only ONE account is present - i.e. the current administrator profile. The easy option is therefore just to delete the MSSQL accounts.
In the current state of play, even after I deploy the generalized image (with the copied 'ReportServer$MSSMLBIZ' account), I end up with only three users when looking at
"Manage --> Local User and Groups" (the Administrator, Guest (disabled) and HomeGroupUser$ user), so all the above "NT Service\MSSQL" accounts disappear during the sysprep process in any case.
I'm not sure what the effect will be on BCM for the end user. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be the best course of action.
Cheers
Chris
Chris

I don't suppose anyone has got any cluse about these users, what they do and how best to then deploy BCM as part of an image?

Business Contact Manager Standalone Database

We are wanting to deploy a BCM database between three users. Can that database function without Outlook on a server or do you have to have Outlook installed on that server to utilize it for the DB?
We aren't needing Outlook on the server as nobody would access it.

Hi,
The server does not need to have Microsoft Office or Business Contact Manager for Outlook installed, but it must have a supported version of Microsoft SQL Server installed. You can use the Business Contact Manager for Outlook Database Tool to do that.
Please refer to Manage your Business Contact Manager database on a server:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/manage-your-business-contact-manager-database-on-a-server-HA101810395.aspx
Hope this helps.

Is there a way to trick MS Service Manager 2012 to use SQL Server 2014 when installing it?

I recently set up a virtual Lab on my laptop. I dont have much resources on my laptop and can only have around 5 servers. the problem is that i already set up SQL Server 2014 standalone and configured all of my services to use that server which works
fine. however when i try to install MS Service Manager 2012 it throws "SQL has to be either 2012 or 2008" error ..
is there a way for me to trick the Registry so Service Manager will install?
Thank you

I don't know a trick to install SCSM 2012 on a SQL Server 2014. But maybe you can use a SQL Server 2012 for installation temporary and move the db after installation is done to your SQL Server 2014?
Moving the Service Manager and DW Databases
Might be worth a try. But it's definitely not recommended for a productive environment!

WCF-Custom Biztalk 2013 - Access to SQL Server 2014 Database

Hi,
i don't see nowhere of capability from the Biztalk adapter to access differente version of Sql server.
I want to send ou receive information with a WCF-Custom from SQL Server 2014, i'm in Biztalk 2013 (not R2 ) it's possible ?
Do you have a link or a list of version autorized to accessed by the wcf-custom Sql binging ?
Thanks a lot

Hi, I can suppose that the main problem for Joao is not if it works in general or not.
The real problem is that he is not sure if this configuration is officially supported by Microsoft.
If you are developing an integration project for a client you need to have this guarantee. If not, you can have an unsupported scenario, and if something fails you could have a big problem with your client.
If I were you, I would talk with the client account manager about this.
Regards.

Install SharePoint 2013 database on SQL server 2012 SP1 cluster

Good Day all,
We are trying to install SharePoint 2013 database on a SQL server 2012 Enterprise with SP1 cluster (configured for mixed mode) but the connection is not working (times out). We can telent the SQL cluster network name on port 1433 and we made
a UDL connection file, test the connection via windows authentication and it is working, but if we use the sql authentication it is not working.
Also we have two SharePoint 2013 servers connected via NLB.
Any idea about this issue guys?

event if 3355 means 3 things:
The SQL Server might be offline.
The SharePoint Foundation database access account might not have the necessary permissions to communicate with the SQL Server.
A firewall that runs on either the local server or on SQL Server might be blocking network communications.

System Center Operations Manager 2012 R2 and SQL Server 2014 Reporting Services

I was able to connect SCOM12 to SQL14, however when I attempted to install Reporting Service in SCOM12 the pull down box was blank.
I installed reporting services on the same instance of SystemCenter, when that didn't work I tried creating a new instance that only included SSRS; remote registry is also running. The drop-down box within the SCOM installer is blank.
Is this an issue with reporting between SC12 and SQL14, yes I understand documentation says only sql server 2012 is supported, however I've seen many threads with SCOM12 and SQL12 that are having the same issues.
Is there something I may be missing, or do I have to install SQL12 and go through the process again?

Hi,
As far as I know, the SCOM reporting server role should be installed on the same server where SQL reporting service installed.

TFS 2013 TfsReports on SQL Server 2014 - rsAccessDenied Error even though all users are granted ALL Roles

We have granted everyone all roles on our TfsReports site. However, all users (except for 2 who are TFS Admins) still get the following errors when attempting to manage the reports:
The permissions granted to user Domain\UserName are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)
These are the roles we've granted to all "Domain Users": Browser, Content Manager, My Reports, Publisher, Report Builder, Team Foundation Content Manager.
We can't seem to figure out what else might be missing.
Please help.

The issue was reported by one of the Application Support team stating that they have problems with accessing reports in Reporting Services from Team Foundation Server (TFS)
side. By default certain users are part of local domain group having LOCAL ADMINISTRATOR privileges on TFS server, which is by default no issues for those users. Somehow there was a change in the role of certain users where ADMIN access was revoked. However
the users are still part of SYSADMIN group, they were reported the error as follows:
“The
permissions granted to user ''DOMAIN\UserName'' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)”
By default the text clarifies that no permission to access the reports and further we have set of roles defined on the Reporting
Services, as follows:
http ://servername/Reports/
Root
BUILTIN\Administrators No
access
DOMAIN\TfsAdmins Content
Manager
DOMAIN\ReportAdmins
Content Manager

Business Contact Manager fails to install component Mssml.biz

Windows 8.1 with office 2013, attempting to install x.86 32 bit version of BC upgrade 2010. each install fails to install this component mssml.biz. Have attempted everything published on this problem i could find, clean install, run fix it, deleted everything
SQL in programs, cleaned out registry, reboot, installed SQL express as stand alone then BC, all fail with same error. Unit is 100% up to date on all patches.

Hi,
Thanks for posting your question here, I will be assisting you on this issue.
For getting a better understanding of what has got in the way of installation, we may need to collect installation logs during BCM Setup:
For Windows Installer Setup log
            drive:\setup.exe
/l*v c:\Setup_log_name
The MSDE Setup log
          MSDE Setup log is automatically created during Setup. You can find it under temp folder with
          name like
Msde_setup_number.log (Ex. Msde_setup_1108685580.log)
          click
Start, point to Run, type %temp%, and then click
OK.
- The MSDE configuration log
The MSDE configuration log is named Cnfgsvr.out. the Cnfgsvr.out log located one of the
           following
folders, depending on the version of BCM you are using:
              . Business Contact Manager:
                    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL$MICROSOFTBCM\Install
             . Business Contact Manager Update:
                   C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL$MICROSOFTSMLBIZ\Install
Please send the log through mail to:
[email protected]
As you’ve tried a lot trouble shooting steps already, let not repeating those steps till we have the log.
This Article is a detailed reference for log collecting and some trouble shooting steps which you might already tried.
Thanks for your understanding.

MOF Syntax Error Installing SQL Server 2014 Express

I am trying to install SQL Server 2014 Express With Tools on a fully updated Win 8.1 system having already installed Visual Studio Community 2013 with Update 4. During the installation of SQL Server, I am getting a "MOF Syntax Error".
I found this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2387686 on the web but I can't see that that applies to me as I would have thought that any suggested fixes from this article would have been already installed
or corrected in Win 8.1 or SQL Server 2014. Neither do I know what fix I should install anyway.
An entry on this forum suggested that running Winmgmt /salvagerepository command fixed the problem. I ran the command in the Command Prompt and a /verifyrepository said it was consistent. However, the error still occurred when I installed SQL Server.
Can anyone help with this?

Hi wagham,
From your description, you encounter the error when installing SQL Server 2014 Express on Windows 8.1. For further analysis, please help to post the summary and detail logs which locate under
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Setup Bootstrap\Log. For more details about viewing SQL Server setup log files, you can refer to this
article.
Additionally, based on my research, “MOF Syntax Error” could be caused by various reasons, such as insufficient account permissions, corrupted .NET Framework and so on. There are some proposals for you installing SQL Server 2014 Express as follows.
1. Make sure that the account you use to install SQL Server has admin rights. If you are using a domain administrator, please ensure that it is added to local administrator group.
2. Make sure that you right-click the SQL Server setup file (setup.exe) and choose “Run as administrator” to complete the installation.
3. Check that if the .NET Framework is corrupted on your system. You can verify the installation state of the .NET Framework via the
.NET Framework Setup Verification Tool. If the .NET Framework is corrupted, please
repair it using
.NET Framework Repair Tool, then reinstall SQL Server.
Here is a similar blog about “MOF Syntax Error” for your reference.

How could I install outlook with business contact manager 2007 in windows 8.1 system?

The reason: sql server is not compatible. Would you please let me know how to fix that problem?

Hi CarlosZC,
Since the issue regards Outlook with business contact manager 2007. I suggestion you post the question in the Outlook forums at
