How to install and use sql server express 2014 with tools

I am a student and have an assignment that requires I use either mysql or sql server, so I chose to download and install sql server express 2014 with tools, but after installation was complete all I can see is sql server 2014 import and export data (64-bit)
and I have no clue what to do wiith it...I had used sql server 2008 a couple  of  years ago and it was easy, but this is very complicated, I have been trying to get this done for 2 days now, so someone please help me and tell me what I am doing wrong.

  • Any comments on speed and robustness of RH Server running on Windows 7 and using SQL Server Express?

    Hi. Can anyone comment on their experience using RH Server on Windows 7 and using SQL Server Express? That is, is it stable and fast enough for delivering Web Help Pro documentation to support occasional viewer browses. (We would have approx 250 customers who would occasionally access the HTML docs that support our software.)
    Our company is not keen on spending $s on Windows Server and an MS or Oracle database.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Kurt. You should have no problems with that configuration and user numbers. See Recommended OS/database combinations for RoboHelp Server « Technical Communication Suite

  • VFPOLEDB and MS SQL Server Express 2014

    I can install VFPOLEDBSetup.msi on machine with Windows 7 - 64bit and MS SQL Server Express 2012, but I cannot install VFPOLEDB on machine with Windows 7 - 64bit and MS SQL Server Express 2014. Is there a problem with MSSQL 2014?

    I don't think this is related to what Man-wai Chang points to, because the dropping of OLEDB just means continued development of data access drivers for SQL Server are ODBC only now, not that the OLEDB branch of any database is broken intentional.
    That said, it's quite cumbersome to find out what your detail problem is. Do you expect installation of Win7, MSSQL2014 and VFPOLEDB to eventually reproduce and see your problem? You could bet on your luck someone else had the same combination, but there
    are not a lot of VFP developers left over and they may already be using Win8 or 8.1
    Is there any error in setup? Are you just looking at the wrong place (eg OLEDB providers are not lilsted in ODBCAdmin)? VFP OLEDB is and always will be a 32bit driver and can only be seen and used from 32bit processes.
    Bye, Olaf.
    PS: You can use 32bit drivers from a 64bit MSSQL Server as it manages pools of 32bit and 64bit processes. For example see how to do via linked server http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~VisualFoxProDataFromSQLServer. The detail is in allowing inprocess
    usage of the driver.
    Also see this:
    Create a new SQL Server Integration Services(SSIS) package.
    Add a Data Flow Task(DFT) to the package.
    Select the DFT, and go to Data Flow designer page.
    Add a OLE DB Source to the package.
    Double-click the OLE DB Source, click “New” > “New” to create a connection to Visual FoxPro.
    In the Connection Manager, please select “Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro”
    Type the file path of a Visual FoxPro database(e.g. C:Address.dbc).
    Test the connection by clicking button “Test Connection”
    Click “OK” > “OK” to apply.
    Now, we can select a table from the Visual FoxPro database in the OLE DB Source editor.

  • SQL Server Express 2014 Installation Completes with Failures and Repair Does Nothing to Help

    I am attempting to install SQL Server Express 2014 on a development machine and as usual old versions of SQL and the remnants of them are a plague to the installation.
    I have used to Revo Uninstaller to scrub the old installations and with my first attempt after some additional work on the registry I was able to get an instance to install and remarkably I was able to connect to the instance. However, I removed an application
    reference to SQL Server 2008 after the SQL Express 2014 installation (through Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features) and it stopped working immediately.
    So I removed (uninstalled using Revo Uninstaller) every reference to any SQL Server application as well as removed all of the registry references (using Revo) and I can now install SQL Server Express 2014 with 
    "Feature" failures [Reporting Services, Database Engine Services, Full-Text and Semantic Extractions for Search and SQL
    Server Replication]  and of course it doesn't work.
    Now when I attempt "Repair" the installation the process ends normally (no errors) and reports  "Success" however SQL still has no instance and the services are not running nor are they visible when I open the "SQL Server Configuration
    Manager".
    This is the "Repair" log:

    Hello,
    To my knowledge, Revo is not a supported way to uninstall SQL Server.
    Please try to uninstall all you can using Control Panel -> Programs and Features, then perform a manual uninstall to
    remove remnants. Try the following procedure:
    1. Uninstall all SQL Server 2012 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.
    After performing above procedure, try to reinstall SQL Server again.
    Hope this helps.

  • Install SQL Server Express 2014 on same machine as SQL Server Express 2008 R2

    Hello, I have a customer with a CRM application using SQL Server 2008 Express (installed as part of the product installation).
    They wish to use another database-based application and the CRM company is recommending a separate instance of SQL for the other database.
    So, I am wondering if it is possible to install SQL Server Express 2014 on the same machine as the existing SQL Server Express 2008 R2?
    Many thanks for any assistance provided.

    The CRM application in question is SAGE Act!.  It is their own (proprietary) application.
    I am less interested in comparability questions concerning this application than I am about the possibility of installing
    SQL Server Express 2014 or creating another database instance within the existing SQL Server Express 2008.

  • Formication : How to install and use it

    Hi,
    I need some help. I would like to install and use the Formication CGI but I don't find any documentation usable for someone who never installed any CGI
    Does someone use it and can teach me how to install and use it ? Or maybe there is a documentation somewhere ?
    Thanks for any help

    >I thought it was something well known here.
    I'd never heard of it before.
    Find here the message from the Mac OS X Server Mailing list where I found it.
    Hi all..
    We are currently moving: from WebStar / Lasso 6.x / FMS 5.5 to
    Mac OSX Server / Apache / Lasso.850 / FMSA 8.
    On our WebStar webserver we used FlexMail to handle e-mails sent from a
    html-form, unless we wanted databases/Lasso to get involved.
    I understand FlexMail cannot be used on Apache so I have been looking around
    and searched the list for any tool to do the same job.
    --> What tool to send e-mails directly from web-forms
    with a reasonable option to format the e-mail and
    generate a response page.
    Henning, most of the people that transition from WebSTAR to iTools Apache use Formication.
    Formication is a Perl version of Flexmail, so it has all the features of Flexmail, plus more. It was designed by one of the developers of the original Flexmail.
    When you convert from WebSTAR to Apache you can keep your script intact.
    With iTools, all you need to do is to add the action:
    Flexmail /cgi-bin/formication.pl
    and the .flx handler,
    and the scripts run unchanged.
    >I also found that there is an invisible file
    inside. It's a .htaccess file
    I'd totally missed that, and it's likely to be the
    critical link.
    yes... I supposed it was something important but.... well hidden...
    By default, as shipped by Apple, .htaccess files are
    ignored. You need to explicity enable then in
    /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
    Both 'Action' and 'AddHandler' (the two directives in
    the .htaccess file) require FileInfo override for the
    directory. Therefore, at the very least you need to
    add:
    <pre class=command><Directory /path/to/your/form>
    AllowOverride FileInfo
    Directory></pre>
    to your httpd.conf so that apache will read the
    .htacess file.
    Alternatively, since you have to edit httpd.conf
    anyway, you might just want to add those directives
    to the <Directory> block, which will save Apache
    having to read the file each time the form is used.
    Thanks a lot Camelot,

  • How to install and use a plug-in downloaded from the apple site?

    how to install and use a plug-in downloaded from the apple site?

    Emelie,
    which plug-in do you want to install?
    some of the plug-ins come with an installer on the disk image, you click the installer and it will install it in its proper location.
    For others you move the plug-in into to System Library or your User Library:
      Your Hard disk  > Library > Application Support >Aperture > Plug-Ins > Edit
    or
    Your Home Folder > Library > Application Support >Aperture > Plug-Ins > Edit
    If it is an "Edit" plug-in, it goes into the "Edit" subfolder, "Export" plug-ins into the "Export" subfolder.
    You can tell by the extension, what kind of plug-in it is.
    E.G. BorderFX.ApertureExport is an export plug-in, BorderFXEditPlugin.ApertureEdit an edit plug-in.
    Regards
    Léonie

    good luck with apple dude..
    Where is the Apple problem? I have CS4 and CS5 running perfectly fine on my Macbook Pro. Installed 5 after Lion upgrade. Worth every cent. Adobe did have some catching up to do with Lion but with the CS5.5 update all runs fine. But not yours. So it is a problem with the Lion OS? You say you have been with Adobe since 2005. So you would be aware of all the other issues that Adobe had catching up with past Oss in Mac and Windows then. They get it right, but it is up to them. It is not up to Apple, nor Microsoft for that matter, to run around and check that every software developer in the world is running their business properly.
    And what has politics got to do with anything. Some people just have to blame Software for their poor Hardware maintainence of failure of the same.
    <The only think I can really do is to go back on my old windows...give back this orrible lap top and ask for my money back!>
    Great suggestion. You should go with that one, but good luck getting a refund.

  • SQL Server Express compatibility with Windows 8.1 - Which version(s) are compatible?

    We have purchased a new computer that has Win 8.1 Pro. We are migrating an application from a Win 7 Pro machine we are currently successfully using (the vendor migrates it for us) and they have said that the application will require the installation of SQL
    Server 2008 Express (which we do have on our Win 7 machine).
    In looking at the requirements for SQL Server 2008 Express (on the download page for it), it does not mention it being compatible with Win 8.1  
    In addition, Installation Instructions  says that it requires:
     Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1
     Windows Installer 4.5.
     Windows PowerShell 1.0
    I see that 3.5 is already listed as a program feature of Win8.1 and I've enabled it. Do I need to install SP1? I downloaded it, and launched it, and nothing happened.
    I also looked at the Windows Installer 4.5 download page, and it's not clear if that is compatible with 8.1. Do I need to download and install it?
    Power Shell 2.0 is already installed. I assume that will be backwards compatible with PowerShell 1.0; is that correct?
    I saw another question about SQL Server Express Compatibility with Win 8.1 (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/038ec00e-4fc1-41ba-9fdc-21c022aad67e/action?threadDisplayName=sql-server-express-compatibility-with-windows-81) and the response
    said that SQL Server Express 2012 will work, but the link contained in the answer led to a page for SQL Server Express 2014.  
    My vendor has told me that SQL SERver Express 2012 will be backwards compatible with their product. But they said that I would first have to install 2008 first. Is that correct for Win 8.1?
    So, the ultimate questions are:
    1. What is the link for Sql Server 2012 Express for Win 8.1? 
    2. Will the SQL Server 2012 Express download require prior install of the 2008 version
    3. What other component requirements are required for SQL Server 2012 Express, and how can I determine if they have already been installed. (This is a brand new computer with a clean Win8.1 Install).
    4. Finally, can we use the 2014 version of SQL Server Express for Win 8.1? If so, questions 1, 2 and 3 apply, too.
    Thanks for your help on this!! HIGH ANXIETY. 

    Hello,
    The following article provides which updates are required to make SQL Server versions compatible with Windows 8 or 8.1:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681562/en-us
    1. You can use the product updates feature on SQL Server 2012 to make it compatible with Window 8.1. Apply SP1 as described on the following
    article:
    http://www.sqlcoffee.com/SQLServer2012_0008.htm
    2. No.
    3. Download and install .NET Framework 4.0 and enable .NET Framework 3.5. For more information:

    4. Yes, you can use SQL Server 2014 with Windows 8.1. Please refer to the Support article provided above.
