How to install SQLServer 2008 on MS Server 2012

I have a brand new fresh out of the box Server that has Server 2012 installed and all the updates installed. I am trying to install SQL Server 2008 small business and it fails at installation rules right before ready to install. I have tried every workaround
I can find posted anyplace including slipstreaming with SP4 and every compatibility mode back to win 98. can anyone help?

Hello,
Please try to run SQL Server setup from the Command Prompt using the /SkipRules=EditionRequirementCheck switch like this:
Setup.exe /q 
/SkipRules=EditionRequirementCheck /ACTION=Install /FEATURES=SQL 
/INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER /SQLSVCACCOUNT="<DomainName\UserName>" /SQLSVCPASSWORD="<StrongPassword>" /SQLSYSADMINACCOUNTS="<DomainName\UserName>" /AGTSVCACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\Network Service" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
Hope this helps.

Alberto Morillo
I will try this right now. Also, I have just figured out by trial and error that it only fails when I use our license key. If I tell it to run as a enterprise trial it will install just fine. It def. has something to do with it being the standard small business
edition.

  • How to install Sticky Notes in Windows Server 2012 R2

    I want to install Sticky Note in Windows Server 2012 R2. If this app is not available in Server 2012 then which is the
    best "Sticky Note" application for this platform.
    Thanks

    Here are instructions for 2008 -
    http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/sticky-notes/  I'm not sure about the legality of that, as I think Microsoft has some rules in their license about copying files from one distribution to another.  You would need a lawyer to check on that.
    Otherwise, a simple Bing search will turn up freeware apps you can download.

  • How to install device cals on Windows Server 2012 standard edition

    Hello i have a windows server 2012 standard edition licence that i have taken on rent from an ISP.
    i have created a domain controller on that.
    By default only two users can use remote desktop to the server simultaneously.
    My Requirement is 20 users can use remote desktop to the server at the same time.For that i have purchased 20 Delive CALs licences like volume licencing.
    i have the licence number noted on the paper.
    do i need to install remote desktop services first etc ?
    Could anyone guide me step by step how can i install or configure so that 20 users can use remote desktop on the same time.

    Hi,
    Any update about the issue?
    I would agree with others, you need to install Remote Desktop Services Client Access Licenses.
    There are three methods by which you can install Remote Desktop Services client access licenses (RDS CALs) onto your license server:
    • Install Remote Desktop Services Client Access Licenses Automatically
    • Install Remote Desktop Services Client Access Licenses by Using a Web Browser
    • Install Remote Desktop Services Client Access Licenses by Using the Telephone
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725890.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
    Then you can install both Per User and Per Device CALs onto the same license server.

    how to install CAL 2008 SQL Server

    Hello,
    SQL Server does not keep track of licenses. You cannot register/install licenses on a SQL Server instance. SQL Server uses
    an honor system, that means keep licensing papers of a safe place if somebody requires them later.

    Kind Rgds,

    Hi,
    Try this solution:
    The step-by-step installation guide can be found in the documentation included in the installation media. (\Documentation\SystemSetup\AdministratorGuide_SQL.pdf).
    Below are some important parts that you should pay attention to during the Installation process.
    Resolution
    Collation setting: It must be set as SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS,even the company DB is non-english location. The company DB will be created as corresponding collation settings automatically.
    Instance and TCP Port : It is recommended to run SBO on default instance and TCP port 1433. Otherwise,some optional components such as B1i may not work properly.
    Native Client: SQL Server Native Client should be installed on every client machine to enable the ODBC connection to DB server.

  • How to install and configure ms exchange server 2007 both role hub and edge transport role in one network

    How to install and configure ms exchange server 2007 both role hub and edge transport role in one network 

    Hi,
    Edge role is design for perimeter networks, to keep security risks minimum.  So it’s not recommended to have edge role in internal network. Must have separate network or subnet for edge services.
    If you are playing around it in labs, then you can put edge role within same subnet as other exchange roles and no specific requirements in that case.
    Thanks.

  • How to to make Cluster between two server 2012 Datacenter with share storage and Hyper-V role then install Exchange 2013 on each server datacenter then make DAG between Exchange servers

    Dears,
    I have IBM Flex server with built in storage,  
    HOW to to make Cluster between two  server 2012 Datacenter with share storage and Hyper-V role then install Exchange 2013 on each server datacenter then make DAG between Exchange servers?
    If there any prerequisites of the Share storage types ?and any configuration guide to deploy Cluster between two Server 2012 datacenter ?

    Microsoft Failover Clusters require shared storage.  If you wish to create a failover cluster with local storage, you need to use third party software to mirror the disks and present it to the hosts (siog.com, datacore.com, starwind.com).  If you
    use third party software, you will need to follow their instructions for configuring the environment.
    Questions on how to configure Exchange environments are better asked in an Exchange forum.

    I compared the registry with a working system but the Counters - and all other keys - looked fine.
    At the same time as upgrading a DC a colleague was updating an unrelated server, and he started to see similar events in the event log (but for the Dell OpenManage Essentials service, not ADWS). The error was complaining about KERNELBASE.dll which set my
    spider sense tingling. We knew that this server had Windows Updates pending. Fully updating it solved the problem on that server.
    I solved the ADWS problem in the end by fully Windows Updating the DC. In particular, the ADWS Service started successfully after installing KB2919355 and rebooting. That also
    'unlocked' a further 59 updates pending. 
    After the in-place upgrade I always fully Windows Update but I'm 99% certain that KB2919355 did NOT show up when I did a Check for Updates straight after a reboot so I thought the DC was up-to-date. I then spent hours investigating the ADWS problem and rebooted
    as part of the diagnostics. It was then that I noticed on the logon screen that there were updates pending...
    Moral of the story? Windows Update, then Update again, and again, and again. The length of time it takes to Windows Update after an upgrade from 2008R2 to 2012R2 is painful though.

    Assign "Log on as a service" to the service account on this computer. You can use Local Security Settings (Secpol.msc) to do this. If this computer is a node in a cluster, check that this user
    right is assigned to the Cluster service account on all nodes in the cluster.
    If you have already assigned this user right to the service account, and the user right appears to be removed, check with your domain administrator to find out if a Group Policy object associated
    with this node might be removing the right.

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2832204/en-us
    To work around the issue, use one of the following methods:
    Assign the Log on as a service user right to NT SERVICE\ALL SERVICES in the GPO that defines the user right.
    Exclude the computer from the GPO that defines the user right.
    We moved the SCCM server to OU where no policies were getting applied and then applied the new GPO to that OU. Restarted the server and we were able to install WSUS role.

    2. 
    In the Connect to Server dialog you will see Database Enghine, Analaysis Servie on so on and you go head change Server type to
    SQL Server Compact Edition
    3. 
    From the Database file drop-down as shown below click the drop down arrow and select <

    Wouldn't it make sense to place it in the server manager / shares section?
    I mean, second to creating or finding a share, isn't this what most users would be after?
    For like 20 years we've been trained to right click to find stuff Microsoft is hiding, and right click don't do nothin' here.  You gotta go hunting under tools.   Or, forget the new half-baked interface with half of what you need and go old school,
    direct to Start - Computer..Right Click.. whoops... that doesn't exist anymore.....
    Drool.........drool.............Find that hiding, blinking start button in a RDP session, click start after three trys,  and TYPE IN "Computer Management" .  Right Click, Pin it to your desktop, pin it to the start screen, pin it to the taskbar, send
    it to OneNote, and upload it to skydrive  so you can find it again, then get back to what you were doing....to find the cottin' pickin open files and kick your users off so you can have your way with the server.
