SQL 2014 Express deinstallation fail

Hi,
i have SQL Express 2014 installed with two instances and later SQL Express 2012 with one instances.
I want to uninstal SQL Express 2014 but the process fails because it says the system requirements are to low.  All instances are disabled.
best regards

It can be extremely hard or impossible to completely remove the setup of SS 2014 express. What we can do is, to restore the OS to its previous state or reinstall the OS instead.
Many Thanks & Best Regards, Hua Min
Totally irrelevant answer HuMmin You cannot ask somebody to format OS just because he is facing issue in removing SQL Server 2014. Its very much possible to remove any SQL server version.
It could always work by the nature that you are installing fresh system but how think of time it would require and if server is prod are you willing to take that risk.
Mondieu,
Please follow suggesstion to remove SQL server mentioned in below link,see solution section.

  • SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe for SQL 2014 express seems to be incomplete?

    Hi,
    I have downloaded the executable SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe for SQL 2014 express several times, but every time I run the executable, when it is almost done extracting I get the error: Extraction failed.
    When I run the setup.exe in the directory where the extracted files reside, the installation will eventually fail with the error it is missing files (which sounds logical seen the previous error).
    So it occurs to me that the "SQL 2014 Express With Tools" executable (SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe) found at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42299 is broken.
    Anyone with the same issues or have any idea where I can download the correct executable?
    By the way the total size of the separate downloads of the management tools and the sql express version is larger than the download with the tools included:
    SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe = 833.2 MB
    SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe + SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe = 880.6 MB
    For me this confirms my suspicion 
    Regards,
    Erik

    Hi,
    Based on your description there IS something wrong with the download. Have you actually downloaded it and tried what I am describing, so you can rather base it on experience than just a description?
    1. If I need a third party application to successfully extract a self-extracting executable, than to me there is something wrong with the download.
    2. the /X makes no sense because I get the same specify location dialogue box if I just run the executable.
    Taken all the above into account including the size differences mentioned in my starting post, to me the self extracting executable is still broken/faulty/incomplete.
    Hi Erik,
    Actually, I have done a test, firstly downloaded the SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe file from the same website:http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42299, and extracted it from the command prompt, and then I installed the SQL 2014 Express on my computer
    successfully.
    Since your self-extracting executable is still incomplete.I recommend you to check if there is an anti-virus software or other third-party software on your computer blocking the process of downloading, also you can try to download the SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe
    file from a different browser, and check if you can implement the extraction successfully.
    In addition,this issue might also be caused by your Internet Service Providers (ISP). In order to enhance the network performance, some ISPs may deploy cache servers, when you download the SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe file from Microsoft official website, it
    will redirect your installation media file to the local cache server, and it might cause the download file to be broken, then you encounter the error when extracting file. I recommend you to contact to your ISP to solve the problem, then download again
    and check if it can extract successfully .
    Thanks

  • Migration of the database from Microsoft SQL 2014 Express to Microsoft SQL 2012 Server

    I posted a similar thread yesterday, and I realized that there was a serious typo.
    Link: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/b3e201ea-6c7c-43a4-8908-842b714ea451/migration-of-the-database-from-microsoft-sql-2014-express-to-microsoft-sql-2012-server?forum=sqlservermigration
    Therefore, I made a decision to post another thread right now.
    I am
    writing to ask if there are any known issues when migration from MS SQL 2014 Express to MS SQL 2012 Server version. Are there any step-by-step instruction on how I can go about doing this?
    Looking forward to your response. Thank you for your time.

    Hello,
    SQL Server 2012 setup program won’t allow you to perform a downgrade from SQL Server 2014 Express Edition. Backup/Restore
    and Detach/Attach won’t help you either.
    One option you have left is using SQL Server Import/Export Wizard as explained on the following article.

    Hope this helps.

  • SQL Server express 2008 fails due to no useable instance

    hi I am trying install a piece of software which requires SQL server express 2008. The server software comes with my software and is installed first but I cannot get it to install correctly. My operating system is Win7 64bit. Any ideas?.
    thx
    mark

    Hi  nield,
    According to your description, before you installing SQL Server 2008 Express version on Windows 7 64bit, we need to verify if you install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 successfully on servers. After SQL Server setup completes, you need to apply SQL Server
    Service Pack1(SP1) or a later service pack before you run SQL Server 2008 on the Window 7. There is detail about how to install SQL Server 2008 on Windows 7, you can review the following article.
    http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/305113/How-to-Install-SQL-server-on-Windows
    In addition, as other post, if you install failed, I recommend you help us to collect the detailed error message from the following error log. It is very useful for our research.

  • Configuring SQL 2014 Express for TCP/IP remote access

    Hi
    I have installed SQL Server 2014 Express on Windows 2008 Server. I have enabled TCP/IP, removed the dynamic port and added fixed port 1433 to TCP/IP properties, added port 1433 to Windows Firewall on server and have restarted SQL Server service. I can access
    SQL Server on Windows 2008 Server via Management Studio but not from a Windows 7 client PC. What more do I need to do to access SQL Server 2014 Express remotely?
    The other SQL Server instances on the Windows 2008 Server are SBSMONITORING, SOPHOS and MICROSOFT##SSEE.
    Thanks
    Regards

    Hello,
    Please enable SQL Server access on the Windows Firewall on the client computer side or disable Windows Firewall on the
    client computer.
    Enable SQL Server Browser service and start it.

    Good day everyone,

  • SQL 2014 Express on windows 7 professional (x86)

    Hi all,
    Thanks in advance for all reply's, My question is it possible to install SQL2014 Express edition in here:-
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/dn434042.aspx (Express with Tools (SQLEXPRWT))
    on a machine running Windows 7 Profesional sp1 (2GB RAM)
    According to:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506.aspx 
    it look like it can be.
    But I ran into problem when I try to install. this Message came after i first attempt to "install without" internet since the machine a "desktop" and "router" in another room. I attempted to repair with no success/
    remove no success. finally re-install windows then try again but all in vein. even after getting online.
    Message:
    "The operating system on this computer or its service pack level does not meet the minimum requirments for SQL Server 2014"
    Hint may be the second attempt of windows installation i could not get to point of installing sp1 even tough it was in update list i wanted to update. but after several attempts eventually machine gave in[broken]
    on my laptop with windows ultimate the same software works [along with 2008r2]

    Hi
    Ok yes I did read this article rather late. My machine is working now. and I installed another fresh copy of windows.
    This time I made sure that I use different "machine name"  all this time I used same machine name I used in on first time.[not sure how this did help but I remember how Teamviewer works]
    Ok let me tell the order of what happened:
    1. I did have SP1 instaled on the machine
    2. I did have .Net Framework 4.0 intalled (these are routine work even if you install sql 2008 or vs)
    3. However I did not have internet
    4. So when the setup started it gave an an error indicating about offline status
    5. I ignored and continued
    6. The set up continued normal but then abruptly crashed or did not set up successfully.
    7. after that Repair/Remove or re-install
    all gave this message(even when machine had sp1 there and framework 4.0 installed)
    "The
    operating system on this computer or its service pack level does not meet the minimum requirments for SQL Server 2014"
    8.
    This continued even after re-installing os after unsuccessful in installing sp1( same machine name )9. but today I was successfully installed.
    My conclusion is( on fresh copy of win 7 pro ) all you need is:
    1. internet
    2. program feature on of tic .Net framework 3.5(just include since i cam across it...)
    3. install sp1
    4. install framework 4.0
    I included all this detail because it sort of confuse you since the message same but ...
    "helpful if it helped so that other forum members can benefit from it"
    So in my case internet problem was the issue.

  • SQL Server Express 2005 to 2014 upgrade and Uninstallation issues

    We have client application running SQL Server Express that connects to a SQL Server 2012 server.  We are attempting to upgrade from Microsoft SQL 2005 express to Microsoft SQL Server 2014
    express – but are having difficulties – especially with uninstall.
    Our understanding is that we needed to follow the following steps:
        First we install Microsoft SQL 2005 express SP4 as required silently
    Start /wait SQLEXPR.exe /qn ACTION=UPGRADE INSTANCENAME="SQLEXPRESS" UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SAPWD=<password>
    SQLACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" SQLPASSWORD= SECURITYMODE="SQL"
        Then try upgrading with Microsoft SQL Server 2014 express, we use following command to do it silently
    SQLEXPR.exe /q /ACTION=upgrade /INSTANCENAME=SQLEXPRESS /ISSVCAccount="NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
    We see following
        In Control Panel -> Uninstall or change program, we have all the instances listed 2005, 2008, 2012 and 2014.
        How do we uninstall the instance?  , We try uninstalling 2014
    But it is not cleanly uninstalled.
    Questions:
        Is there any way for clean upgrade from Microsoft SQL 2005 express SP3 to Microsoft SQL 2014 express?
        Is there any specific steps suggested to uninstall upgraded SQL 2014 express from system?
        Are we doing anything wrong in commands for silent upgrade?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    After you perform an in-place upgrade it’s normal to find the binaries and references of the old version of SQL Server on the Start Menu and Control Panel -> Programs and Features. That’s by design. After you have successfully upgraded an instance, you can
    remove the old binaries.
    IfIf you find some remnants after uninstalling SQL Server 2014, please perform the following steps to manually uninstall it:
    1. Uninstall all SQL Server 2014 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.
    Hope this helps.

    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.

  • Can't update SQL 2014 DB during web publish from Visual Studio 2013

    According to Visual Studio 2013 I have "SQL Server Data Tool 12.0.40706.0" installed, which should allow me to update a SQL 2014 database but when I try to publish my web application I get the error: "Web deployment task failed. (Could not
    generatedeployment script. Internal Error. The database platform service with type Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Sql120DatabaseSchemaProvider is not valid. You must make sure the service is loaded, or you must provide the full type name of a valid database
    platform service. Internal Error. The database platform service with type Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Sql120DatabaseSchemaProvider is not valid. You must make sure the service isloaded, or you must provide the full type name of a valid database platform
    service. Learn more at:
    http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=221672#ERROR_EXECUTING_METHOD.)" I can update the database fine if I go into the package managment console and run -UPDATE-DATABASE but I don't want to have to go into myweb.config, update it to point to the production
    database, run the update command, and then change my web.config back everytime I try to update my database. What do I have to do to getthis working? I had no problems when I was on an Azure DB.

    Actually problem seems to be related when web publish to remote server. I tried local web publish to sql2014 db and it works.
    For remote server web publish works to sql 2012 express db but when try with sql 2014 express db on same server get bellow error.
    Error message "The database platform service with type Microsoft.Data.Tools.Schema.Sql.Sql120DatabaseSchemaProvider
    is not valid. You must make sure the service is loaded, or you must provide the full type name of a valid database platform service."
    Any ideea what may be causing it? I have installed the sql server 2014 express with advanced services x86, exact same version as on my local machine, and also restarted server after install. Need install/configure anything else on server like SSDT 2014 to
    make this work? 
    Cheers!

    I am little confused are you trying to install SQL server 2008 express or SQL server 2014 express.
    You should first refer to
    Hardware and Software requirements for installing SQL server 2014
    You should also read Installing SQL server On windows 8
    Finally when you are ready download
    SQL server 2014 express
    Edit: reg logs you posted it seems your machine where you are installing SQL server does not have internet connection. Internet connection is required for installation of SQL server 2014 express read Hardware and software requirements.

  • Unable to extract SQL Server 2014 Express from MSDN

    Hi,
    I visited the MSDN website to download the SQL Server 2014 Express and it fails to complete the download if I am on IE. If I use Chrome, I am able to download but subsequently fails to extract from the executable. Where else may I get a copy of this software?

    Hi Jenne
    I am using CHrome and I download any version of SQL Server that you can think about and installed all :-)
    please try to use Chrome (IE can be used of course but you might need more security configurations, especially if you download to Windows Server OS). Try to install again and provide us the exact log file information on the failor that you get. I can not promise,
    but we might understand the problem from there
    * Make sure to scan the file before use it! 
    Even if you think that you have downloaded it from Microsoft, there are ways to impersonate another website and using DNS make you use the real domain/URL and getting the fake website.
    ** Make sure to use only the oriinal file from Microsoft website

  • 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.

  • 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.
