SQL Server 2012 Express Edition SP1 Limitations

Our software company is working on many project where are used several versions of SQL Server (2005, 2008, 2008R2, 2012).
Our ICT department applies a procedure that involves the installation of a developer version of the product (each product version) on each of the computer engineers.
One of our colleagues in the developer team tells me to install SQL Server Express Edition SP1 as it would be able to replace all previous developer versions.
He also told me that SQL Server Express Edition SP1 has now the same functions as the developer version.
All this sounds strange to me, and before upgrading all computers to all developers would like to find confirmation from the guidelines supplied by my colleague.
I did a quick search but can not find clear information on SP1 if not this
link which shows that the express version has obvious limitations compared to other versions.
Anyone knows where I could find more detailed information about the limitations of SP1 and a clear comparison with the developer version?
Any help would be awesome.
Luca

>He also told me that SQL Server Express Edition SP1 has now the same functions as the developer version.
That is FALSE.
Developer has the same features as the Enterprise (ALL THE FEATURES) but cannot be used for production.
Express is a limited SS version.

SQL Server 2012 Express Install on Windows 7 SP1 Embedded not using virtual account?

Hi there,
I did a default installation of SQL Server 2012 Express on Windows 7 embedded Standard SP1.
When I look at the SQLSERVER service credential it is configured to run under "NETWORK SERVICE" instead of the virtual account "NT SERVICE\MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS".
This is different from SQL 2012 Express installation on a non-embedded Windows 7.
Why is this difference?
Secondly, because of this, I am unable to take a backup of databases to any folder other than the default SQL folder.

Hi Chandrasekaran,
As Local Service account, the Network Service account and high privileged Local System account could be used by many services.
It becomes harder to track which service is actually accessing resources and performing actions, because all the services are using the one Network Service account or other account.
In Windows7 and Windows Server 2008R2, it introduces a new type of account called a virtual account, which emulates creating many unique instances of the Network Service account, so each service runs with its own instance of the Network Service account.
For example, when you install SQL 2012 on Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7 and later you’ll see the services run with virtual service accounts named like:
in the format NT SERVICE\<SERVICENAME>.
According to your description, when the SQLSERVER service was run under “NETWORK SERVICE”, you only back up database to the default SQL folder. It may be caused by the NETWORK SERVICE account has limited local privileges, just accesses network
resource with the computer credential. I recommend you change the account to Local System account, by default, which has full permissions on your computer.
For more information about SQL Server service account and virtual account, you can review the following articles.

SqlLocalDB.exe not Installed when sql Server 2012 Express (LocalDb Edition) is installed

I have been having a very frustrating time trying to connect to a localDB instance of SQL Server 2012. So I started again from scratch on another computer (Windows 7). I first installed sql server 2012 Express with tools (via ENU\x64\SQLEXPRWT_x64_ENU.exe)
and then installed the LocalDB Edition via sqlLocalDB.msi. The first installation seems to have gone OK. The second installation proceeded normally and finally advised that "Setup has installed SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB successfully."
A whole lot of files were installed in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\LocalDB\Binn, including sqlservr.exe. But the SqlLocalDB.exe utility was
not amongst them.
Does anyone have any idea what is happening here? From where can I download a copy of sqlLocalDB.exe

A whole lot of files were installed in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\LocalDB\Binn, including sqlservr.exe. But the SqlLocalDB.exe utility was

Setup closed with exit code: 0x84C40013 - Silent Install error - SQL Server 2012 express management studio SP1

I am trying to create a silent installation package for SQL Server 2012 Express Management Studio SP1. (both x86 & x64)
Prior to installation I have performed the following :
1. Turned ON the Windows feature 'Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1' (I had read somewhere on the internet that this is required prior to installation)
2. Installed Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
I am using the following command line to perform an unattended install :
<EXENAME> /Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
However, the installation fails abruptly.
The application installs successfully with the following command line :
<EXENAME> /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
The error occurs only while attempting to install the application with the /Q switch appended.
Please help.

Hello Fanny,
Thanks for providing the link to the SQL Server 2012 unattended install guide.
However, I must highlight that I was running the setup.exe with "Run As a Administrator" option and still facing the issue.
Anyways, I found out the root cause and I must say that it was a rather silly one.
As I had stated previously, the following command line was causing the issue :
<EXENAME>
/Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
I simply changed it to the following and it worked....
<EXENAME>
/QUIET /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=INSTALL /FEATURES=TOOLS
It so seems that everything must be in CAPITALS for this to work.
Regards,
Soumen

SQL Server 2012 Express Instance is Not Discovered

I have a single SQL Server 2012 Express instance that is the backend database for a small door security application. I just noticed after having deployed the OpsMgr agent months ago that it never discovered the SQL instance. The SQL instance
is, as stated, Express, and it's the only Express instance I have. Is that why it is not discovered? All the documentation I found seems to indicate the opposite -- that Express is discovered and there are steps you can take to exclude Express
instances. I have no overrides set to exclude any instance or any database.
- System Center Operations Manager 2012 RTM (no SP1, no R2)
- SQL Server 2012 MP version 6.3.173.1
- SQL Server is Windows Server 2012
- SQL Server 2012 Express running on a Hyper-V VM. Instance is named DOORSERVER\Eclipse
- Agent is installed and other discoveries seem to be working fine
- No discovery errors in the event log related to SQL, although there is one about the Windows Server 2008 discovery not being able to start, but I'm on Windows Server 2012, so I am guessing that's okay?
- No overrides are set on the discovery
- Discovery has found every other SQL Server 2012 instance (standard and enterprise editions)

Well, just realized I didn't have the latest MP. Upgrading to 6.4.1.0 version of the SQL MP fixed the discovery issue.

SQL SERVER 2012 EXPRESS Server Roles

I log on as the user "sa" who has the sysadmin role.
In Object Explorer, expand Security |Server Roles, right-click
sysadmin, only can see "Start PowerShell","Reports"and "Refresh". there is no "Properties".
I try to log on with different accounts and get the same results.
Thanks a lot!
This is what express 2012 edition is ,this is not an issue. Express edition comes with limited capabilities not every feature is available in it.
Try same on developer,Ent,standard you will see properties,if you login as sysadmin ir SA

When I use framing in SQL Server 2012 express, error occurred

Hello, everyone,
I met a error when I use framing in the SQL Server 2012 Express. Could you help me, thank you!
the query is:
SELECT custid, orderid, orderdate, val,
SUM(val) OVER(PARTITION BY custid
ORDER BY orderdate, orderid
ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING
AND CURRENT ROW) AS runningtotal
FROM Sales.OrderValues;
And the error information is:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near 'ROWS'.
Thank you!

Hello,
If you run that statement on SQL Server 2012 (or later), you won’t receive any errors.
I receive that error message only when I run that statement on SQL Server 2008.
I didn't try with SQL Server 2012 Express though. I tested with a SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition instance with SP1 CU2, and your statement works.
Hope this helps.

Installing SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition or wait for SP2?

Hi everyone,
I just received my copy of SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition I ordered. As usual, before installing, I searched the web for any hint or other stuff on the subject.
I first found that SP1 was already available. Honestly I prefer installing using the last version available instead of upgrading. I found the SP1 install package using the following web address:
http://www.microsoft.com/fr-ca/download/details.aspx?id=35575
Is this the right install package to use?
Now, still reading everything I could find on that SP1, I found stories about major issues with SP1.
Two examples I remember:
http://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/770630
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2793634/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0
Two others (not specifically related to SP1):
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlsetupandupgrade/thread/a0da3372-ab3d-4af0-b4c4-0d47163e0e03/
http://www.sqlperformance.com/2012/11/system-configuration/2012-cal-problems
My question. Should I wait for SP2? If so, any target date when it should be available?
If not, what would you recommend as the logic install sequence? Should I look for any cumulative update(s)? Any other "manual settings" I should consider?
Finally, can someone guide me regarding what options I should choose while installing. My main goal is to program/build C++, C# applications using VS2010 that will interface with SQL Server for data storage purposes (add/update/delete,
batch update/delete) and reports.
Hope to hear from someone.
Stephane
BTW: My current setup is the following:
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU [email protected]
3.00 Go
Vista Ultimate SP2 32bits
Visual Studio 2010 Professional Edition (which will be upgraded to last SP once installed)

Hi again,
I proceeded with download of CU7. On Microsoft's webpage, there are several files we can download:
2012_SP1_DAC_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
2012_SP1_AOrcleDes_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
2012_SP1_AOrcleSer_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
2012_SP1_PPExcel_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
SQLServer2012_SP1_CU7_2894115_11_0_3393_x86
Which one I should choose?
Also, some people reported having problems installing this update.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlreleaseservices/archive/2013/11/19/cumulative-update-7-for-sql-server-2012-sp1.aspx
Can you comment?
Thanks again for helping,

Hi,
This 3rd time I followed this link. But nothing new, same error.
Can you please tell me how to do follow, I cannt do the 1st step, how to change the local system to windows level account, vice-versa. It is shown mine as
Server Configuration Manager(Local)
From here I folllowed the steps ---[I cannt insert link/image :-(]
SQL 2008/R2 setup fails with "Wait on the database engine recovery handle failed"
If I right clicked on SQL Server Service, there is no option to change the account.
Hello,
Thanks for your patience,did you tried stesp mentioned in below article
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqljourney/archive/2012/03/16/sql-2008-r2-setup-fails-with-quot-wait-on-the-database-engine-recovery-handle-failed-quot.aspx
To resolve it, follow these steps:-
When the installation throws this error, click on OK and allow it to proceed. It will fail for Database Engine, but the SQL Server service should have
been created. Check the Services console.
If the service is present, perform the following steps:-
1. Go to SQL Server Configuration manager, right click on the SQL Server service, and change the service account (if it is local system, give
it a windows level account, and vice-versa). It might throw a WMI error but you will see the account getting updated anyway. If not, then use the Services console. Change the account for SQL Agent as well.
Use this link to change sql server service account
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345578.aspx
2. Next, try to start the service. It should come online.
3. However, you will not be able to log in to the SQL Server
4. Now stop the service and start it from the command prompt using -m -c -T3608 parameters.
5. Now try logging in to the server using admin connection from sqlcmd (sqlcmd admin:<server name>\<instance name> ...)
6. Once logged in, use the sp_addsrvrolemember '<domain\username>','sysadmin'.
Also add the builtin/administrators to the sysadmin role
7. Now stop the service from the command prompt and start it from SQL Server configuration manager
You should be able to log in to the server now.
Hope this helps someone.
Please revert if it helps or even if it does not

SharePoint 2013 Enterprise and SQL Server 2012 Standard edition vs. Enterprise - feature question

I can't seem to find any clear answers to the implications of installing SQL Server 2012 standard edition vs. enterprise in regards to SharePoint 2013.
I understand that to get many of the features you need Enterprise edition of SQL 2012; but, what I can't figure out is if the backend SharePoint SQL 2012 is standard; but, the PowerPivot/SSRS server is Enterprise will we still get the features?
If we have 3 tier SharePoint farm, one of those tiers is for the SQL Server database backend. If that SQL instance is 2012 standard and we add another server to the farm w/ SQL 2012 Enterprise to handle the tabular models, PowerPivot, and SSRS in integrated
mode will we still get the features?
Or, can we (should we) install Enterprise 2012 as the SharePoint database backend and let that instance triple down as also the PowerPivot and SSRS instance?
The Degenerate Dimension

Hi MMilligan,
SQL Server 2012 Standard is not supported PowePivot for SharePoint . In addition, SQL Server 2012 Standard is also not support some Reporting Services Features.
For more information, please refer to Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2012:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993.aspx.
Install SQL Server BI Features with SharePoint 2013 (SQL Server 2012 SP1):

If you have any problem, please feel free to let me know.
