How to run SQL SERVER 2014 EXPRESS ON WINDOWS 8?

I installed  SQL SERVER 2014 EXPRESS(132 mb)  after that when I check "All programs" I don't see any GUI to use SQL.
I know MySQL and Linux. In MySQL client I can do,
$MySQL -p -u root Password:*****
but in SQL SERVER which client GUI I can use. How do I run queries?
Can anyone give me suggestions to use SQL server. Please

Please download SQL Server Management Studio Express from the following URL. When installing it finished you can see it in "All Programs" or simply by calling it via Run... using this command: 
ssms.exe
Download Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Express

  • Overlapped I/O error 997 installing SQL Server 2014 Express on Windows Server 2012 R2

    I'm attempting to install SQL Server 2014 Express on a Windows Server 2012 R2 system. When I do the install, it fails (several times) with an "Error: 997. Overlapped I/O operation is in progress.". From searching the web, I can see many people
    have had this problem with this installer and other non-SQL server installers.
    I've tried every solution I can find discussed, but none help with my problems The system is fully updated, with the exception of the KB2538243 (VC 2008 SP1 redist), which is probably failing for the same reason.
    I've tried removing several updates mentioned in other articles (KB2918614). I've confirmed that I'm not using a temporary profile.
    Does anyone have an idea of how I can solve this issue?
    Thanks,
    Zack

    Alberto,
    Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, I've already tried that. I did try it again and I get an "This update is not applicable to your computer."
    I tried to post the Windows Update log, but it was too large. I've posted some of it below.

  • How to install SQL server 2008 express on Windows server 2008 R2 standard OS

    Hi,
    I have Windows server 2008 R2 Standard edition (64-bit) and trying to install SQL server 2008 express edition since I do not have SQL server 2008. When I install it I am unable to see Management Studio so I am trying to install management studio as well
    but still I am facing issue. Please let me know whether SQL server 2008 express edition is compatible with  Windows server 2008 R2 Standard. If not then pls let me know the proper steps to install it.
    Regds

    Hello,
    Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2008 is required to be compatible with Windows Server 2008 R2.
    Please download QL Server 2008 Express with SP1 included from the following link:

  • 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.

  • I Cant find Sql Server 2014 express edition after installing it. How do I start the program

    Hello,
               I have Installed Sql Server 2014 Express edition and downloaded the AdventureWorks 2014 database and Back up files.
    I cannot find an Icon for the Sql Server on my Desktop to start the Sql program. There is only an icon for the Server Installation Center.
    How do I start the Sql server. I tried opening the AdventureWorks Database but I cant open it.
    Thank you

    Thanks Shanky
    When I installed Sql I chose Windows Login. After Installing I logged into Sql server using windows account. Should I have chosen an Sql account instead.
    Hi,
    Its is Ok if you have chosen windows Login. But it should be part of local administrator. I assume you know how to check
    Is it not a security risk having to run Sql server as an administrator when using windows account or sql account.
    Yes it is but at this point where I guess only you would be using and to get around with problem which you are facing. its recommended to run SQL server service with least privileged domain account. If you wan to read more see
    this link
    How do I make sure the account with which SQL Server service is running has full permission on folder where adventure works mdf and ldf files are located.
    Please make a habit to search on net it is filled with lot of information.
    This link would help.
    Locate the folder on drive where AD mdf and ldf file reside. Right click on folder select properties and then select security tab. Click on add and then type account name and search and add it
    Please mark this reply as answer if it solved your issue or vote as helpful if it helped so that other forum members can benefit from it

  • How do you allow SQL Server 2014 Express for remote connection and in firewall?

    I'm sorry if this was answered here before.
    I installed SQL Server 2014 Express and it is working perfectly. I want my server to be accessed through LAN. It is a named instance.
    I searched the internet and here's what i did:
    1. Through the SQL Configuration manager, I enabled all the Protocols of my Instance (TCP/IP, Named Pipes and Shared Memory). I changed in the IP Addresses the "IP ALL" TCP Dynamic Ports to 1434.
    2. In the Firewall I made an Inbound Rule to allow the Program (%ProgramFiles% (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL12.MyInstance\MSSQL\Binn\sqlservr.exe)
    3. I also made 2 Inbound Rules to allow (TCP/IP Port 1433) and (UDP Port 1434).
    4. Restarted my instance. SQL Server Browser and  SQL Server Reporting Services are also running.
    5. No Luck I cant still access the server using a different computer in the network.
    Please help.

    Hello,
    In Express Edition by default remote connections are disabled, you have to enable it first:
    Configure the remote access Server Configuration Option
    It's always a two way communication, so you have to create also outbound rules, not only inbound, and this on server as well as on client side; see
    Configure a Windows Firewall for Database Engine Access

  • How do i get a backed up db on sql server 2000 be restored on sql server 2014 express

    Is there a way with this? I'm getting a message that it is not supported when i'm trying to restore it.
    Is there a way that I could at least get the data on backed up db on sql server 2000 be transfer to sql server 2014 express if restoring is really not supported?
    Any advice is highly appreciated.

    You can restore first on any SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2008 R2 instance. This will only be used to convert the database backups from the older SQL Server 2000
    format which can’t be restored to SQL Server 2014 to the newer SQL Server 2008 / R2 format which can be.

  • Installing SQL Server 2014 Express package as ClickOnce prerequisite

    I'm using clickOnce and deploying an installer with it.
    I have tried various settings. Using SQL Server 2008 Express and SQL Server 2012 Express as prerequisite is all ok (I've dowloaded them and set the option of clickonce "download prerequisites from the same path of app").
    Now I'm trying to do the same thing with SQL Server 2014 Express.
    Since the SQL Server 2014 Express package isn't alredy done line 2008 and 2012 versiones, I'm trying to create it.
    I have done and it seems to work, but while installing it gives error number **-2054422506**. It is a very generic error and I don't understand it.
    It appears a pop up saying the installation is stopped because it is an error installing SQL Server Express 2014 and to look the log for more infos.
    The log only says:
        Installing using command     
        'C:\Users\VIRTUA~1\AppData\Local\Temp\VSD24F4.tmp\SqlExpress2014\
        SQLEXPR32_x86_ITA.EXE' and parameters '/q /action=Install /features=SQL
        /instancename=SQLEXPRESS /securitymode=SQL /sapwd=234692Is  
        /sqlsvcaccount="NT Authority\Network Service'
        Process exited with code -2054422506
        Status of package 'SQL Server 2014 Express' after install is 'InstallFailed'
    So, I've tried to install SQL Server 2014 Express manually, without ClickOnce, and it works. So I think I've made some mess in the xml file of the package.
    My package is so build (in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1A\Bootstrapper\Packages\):

    I've copied the SqlExpressChk.exe file from the SQL Server 2012 Express package, hoping it is the same (2008 and 2012 versions seems the same, so I supposed it also for the 2014).
    I've delete the part in package.xml about the publicKey, since I don't know it and, further, I think I don't need it.
    In the same file, I've inserted custom parameters, first like in the 2008 and 2012 versions, then doing some attempts (without success).
    Did anyone have this problem? How did you have manage it?
    **NOTE**: I'm using my clickOnce deploy in an empty virtual machine, so there aren't any conflicts o something similar.
    More attempts, more failures, always the same error! I'm deleting the optional stuff to study better the core of the xml, but still no success.. does microsoft have a package of sql server 2014 express?

    refer to this link

    remember make the reply as answer and vote the reply as helpful if it helps.
    thanks! =)
    SqlServer usually runs a file (SqlExpressChk.exe) to see if there is already an installation and a sql instance called sqlExpress (for the express installations). Do you know how can do this test with the bootstrapper manifest generator?
    I am not able to test it currently, but I assume that will also check whether that has installed.
    You have tested it, right?

  • SQL Server 2014 Express why not support Windows 8.1 Pro ?

    Hi All !
    I tried to setup SQL Server 2014 Windows 8.1 Pro x64, but setup says :
    "The operating system on this computer or its service pack level does not meet the minimum requirements for SQL Server 2014. To determine the minimum required operating system supported for this SQL Server release, see Hardware and Software
    Requirements for installing SQL Server 2014 at:
    An error occurred during the SQL Server 2014 Setup operation.
    Error result: -2067529676
    Result facility code: 1220
    Result error code: 52
    For more information, review SQL Server 2014 Setup logs in your temp folder."
    The log file contains :
    07/08/2014 17:08:25.245 Setup launched

    07/08/2014 17:08:27.479 Setup closed with exit code: 0x84C40034
    Why not supported this OS, if the SQL Server 2012 Express x64 is, and Windows Phone SDK 8.0 also.
    Thanks.

    Hey DBT,
    SQL Server 2014 Express supports your operating system.
    You can see the link below the requirements for each version: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506.aspx
    Did you try to restart the computer and then try installing again?
    There are users that it helps them, it might solve the problem but preventing them expect an error and understand why it happens.
    Sometimes it appears as a result of lack of .NET Framework (check the Microsoft article if you meet the requirements before installation).
    If you are interested to View and Read SQL Server Setup Log Files
    I've provided you a link that explains simply how to do this.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143702(v=sql.110).aspx
    Please Mark This As Answer if it helps to solve the issue

    Thanks Shanky, that fixed my issue.  I reinstalled, specifying NT AUTHORITY\LOCALSYSTEM for the SQL Server Database Engine account.  After the successful installation, I used Sql Server Configuration Manager to change the account to LocalService
    (NT AUTHORITY\LocalService).  The Database Engine is restarting OK.
    So, my accounts are:
    SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER):  NT AUTHORITY\LocalService
    SQL Full-text Fiter Daemon Launcher (MSSQLSERVER):  NT Service\MSSQLFDLauncher
    SQL Server Reporting Services (MSSQLSERVER):  NT Service\ReportServer
    SQL Server Browser:  NT AUTHORITY\LOCALSERVICE
    SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER):  NT AUTHORITY\NETWORKSERVICE
    I check out the link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143504.aspx#Serv_Perm.  I'm a bit confused how the NT Service\* accounts are created, such as NT Service\MSSQLSERVER.  However, I did see this http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191153.aspx#manual;
    perhaps I need to read it further.
    Regardless, this is my desktop machine, the installation is for development only, it's inside our network, and no external users will be accessing this SQL Server instance.  So, while I haven't fully read the details on running under LocalService, I
    believe this will meet my needs.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Unable to install SQL Server 2014 Express LocalDb on Windows 8.1 Update 1

    Apologies if this is not the right place or this has been posted before (I looked and didn't find anything)
    I am unable to install SQL Server 2014 Express LocalDb on Windows 8.1 Update 1, as I get an 'Operating System not Supported' error message right away.
    What can I do to get this working?

    Hi Zgreve,
    Usually, from
    hardware and software requirements for installing SQL Server 2014, we can install SQL Server Express version on the Windows 8.1. For more information, see:
    Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Express.
     Before you install SQL Server 2014 Express version, you should ensure installing the .NET Framework 4, then run as administrator for the SQL Server setup.exe again.
     There is a similar detail about install SQL Server Express LocalDB via GUI and command line. You can also review the following steps.
    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2694/getting-started-with-sql-server-2012-express-localdb/
    If the same error about OS still exists,  I recommend you submitting a feedback to Microsoft such issues at
    https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/Feedback, Your feedback enables Microsoft to offer the best software and deliver superior services, meanwhile you can learn more about and contribute to the
    exciting projects on Microsoft Connect.

  • Error when installing SQL Server 2014 Express

    I am running a Win 8.1 desktop 64bit (fully updated) with already installed SQL Server 2012 and Visual Studio 2010 and 2013 (non Express versions). I need to keep SQL Server 2012 for development purposes but also need SQL Server 2014 for a database
    provided to me by others which needs this version. I found out it should be possible to run the two versions side-by-side. During installation of SQL Server 2014 Express I selected all features except 'Local Db' and used a named instanc
    e. The setup runs through without any notice of problems but at the end fails with error code 1638 the reason being 'Error installing Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Redistributables'. Also at the end a window pops up mention 'The working of SQL Server
    2014 stopped - Trying to find a solution'. Doing nothing on my part the window disappears and nothing else happens. So I uninstalled any 'Redistributable' and ran setup again. Same result though both 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
    - x86 9.0.30729.4974' and 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable - 10.0.40219' re-appear in Control Panel as being
    p
    roperly installed! All features are marked as 'failed' with one and the same error 1638. Even tried just upgrading to see if that would work but also here same error.  
    I have not been able to find the proper solution so I am now stuck. Hopefully someone can give me the right steps to take? Ruud van der Spoel

    Hello,
    Error 1638 means another version of the product is already installed. Probably you have a 32-bit version installed but
    the installation requires a 64-bit version of VC.
    Try to manually install both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of each VC.
    Hope this helps.

  • IS SQL SERVER 2014 EXPRESS STILL LEGAL IF I USE IT IF I'M EMPLOYED AS A PROGRAMMER IN A COMPANY

    Hi,
    I've read resources about SQL Server Express versions being free for commercial use but I have a question if I and the company can still use SQL SERVER 2014 EXPRESS if I'm an employee of the company that is going to use the application that I will build.
    Would that still be legal or do the company need to purchase a paid version for them to use the desktop application that needs sql server to run and be develop in VB?
    Thanks.

    You can use SQL Server express database engine feature for free for developement or hosting a small website, what ever you want. This is AFAIK
