SQL Server 2012 installation and to default user database files to a particular path
Hi, I am working on SQL Server 2012 installation on one of our test boxes and I would like to configure the sql server install binaries and all the system databases but for tempdb to be in my C and tempdb on a different drive and once all this is set up,
whenever a developer creates a new database without specifying the path for the mdf & ldf files. They should be defaulted to a path like "D:/Data file" & "D:/Log file" for instance instead of being created on the C drive.
Thanks in advance.........

Hi,
You can of course set default location of database through management Studio please refer below link. Once you change default location even if you do not specify location it would take default one.
http://sqlandme.com/2013/03/18/sql-server-changing-default-database-location-for-server/
I would advise you not to keep files on C drive let it be dedicated system drive also its quite possible that SQL server service account would not have privilege on C drive so after you move tempdb SQL server would not come online as tempdb files cannot
be created . Tempdb is always recreated after SQL Server starts so you just need to change location once using Alter database command
See example mentioned in below link for how to do that

When using either the 32 or 64 bit Import & Export wizard selecting data source "flat file source" no options appear, compared to excel import , sql or another data source ? tried uninstalling etc, build a VM 2008
Server works fine options appear. Any sugguestions before I rebuild my laptop ?
Stage that the Next button is optional, (usually greyed out)

When I open Import and Export Data(64-bit), I choose “flat file source”.
Maybe you could try to reinstall it.

After
sql server 2012 installation, I attached my production db. Because of some reasons, i
changed sql engine account from network service user to system user by means of sql server configuration manager.
Now , there isn’t
a problem at sql server running system. But
I have doubts that
this can produce problems later. Because sql server database engine account must have privileges that listed below;
Log on as a service (SeServiceLogonRight)
Replace a process-level token (SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege)
Bypass traverse checking (SeChangeNotifyPrivilege)
Adjust memory quotas for a process
(SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege)
Permission to start SQL Writer
Permission to read the Event Log service
Permission to read the Remote Procedure Call service
While sql server installation, setup gives these
privileges to network service user automatically, but changing user by means of sql confugarition manager does not give these
privileges.
Now, system user has privileges listed below. And sql server has been running for 1,5 months without any problems.
Log on as a service (SeServiceLogonRight)
Bypass traverse checking
(SeChangeNotifyPrivilege) (Everyone user has his privileges. So i think that system user has this privilege also)
What problems can occur because of this situation? Shall i give other privileges to system user and restart sql server or not? And how can i give these privileges to system user listed below;
Replace a process-level token (
this can be set from user rights assignments)
Adjust memory quotas for a process
(this can be set from user rights assignments)
Permission to start SQL Writer (
? - give advice )
Permission to read the Event Log service (
? - give advice )
Permission to read the Remote Procedure Call service (
? - give advice )Our server is windows server 2008 r2 enterprise edition. I have looked the bunch of permissions in user rights menu that is in local security policy settings gui.
And i have seen those permissions below were not granted to system user;
Bypass traverse checking (SeChangeNotifyPrivilege)
Adjust memory quotas for a process
(SeIncreaseQuotaPrivilege)
So, briefly you say, don't panic ? -

thank you -
I ran SQL Server 2012 express setup as user with administrator privileges and still it's failing to install "Database Engine Service" and "SQL Server Replication".
Any and every ideas on how to resolve this issue is greatly appreciated.Three weeks passed and I am yet to find a fix for the the failed installation of the database engine on sql server 2012 express installation.

SQL Server 2012: Import and Export Wizard - Exporting Multiple Result Sets at Once?
I'm working in SQL Server 2012 trying to export some data from our database into an Excel file. My SQL statement has two separate Select statements. They are not joined by a union. When I Execute them inside of SQL Server Management Studio, with Results
set to go to a Grid, I get two result sets back. Two full tables of data.
However, when I use the Import and Export Wizard, the Excel sheet only has the first set of data.
What do I need to do to have it so both result sets show up in the excel file?Why cant use merge them using union/union all if intention is to get them to same sheet? Is it like the metadata is different so that they cant be merged to single sheet?
If that being the case you need to do it in two steps.

SQL Server 2012 Installation Issue
Hi
Not sure if this is the correct forum for this but I'll post anyway.
Ialready have sql 2005 and 2008r2 installed on my local machine running windows 7, 64 bit.
I recently tried to install sql 2012 but ran into a problem that I'm stumped by. The installation runs fine, no errors or issues. When I start 2012 the SS Management studio window appears but the usual splash screen in the middle of the window asking to
to connect to a server does not. If I try hitting any of the meny items at the top of the screen the SSMS window just hangs.
I have service pack 1 installed also. I uninstalled and tried again but still no luck. my SQL 2005 and 2008r2 version are still fine and run as normal. I also tried installing sql 2014 to see if that would work but I had the same issue as with 2012.
Any ideas anyone?
thanks in advance
Hi,
Both SQL Server 2012 and SQL Server 2014 require .NET Framework 4.0 which does not required by the previous versions.
Make sure that . NET Framework 4.0 has been successfully installed on your system before you install SQL Server

Sql server 2012 installation error
can someone please tell me why i am getting an error when i am trying to install sql 2012 SP1. it when i get to the installation it says "sql server Setup has encountered the following error. hexadecimal value 0x00, is an invalid character.Line
1, position 51471. error code 0x84B10001.Hi vijatkumar.ptl,
According to your description and your error message, when you install SQL Server 2012, check if splinters of an MSDE instance (Microsoft Desktop Engine) was left over from other program. If this hidden instance exists, and the installer perform the RunDiscoveryAction
process, the issue will occur. So I recommend you manually remove a Microsoft SQL Server
Desktop Engine instance (MSDE) by using Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel, and so on, then reinstall again.
There is a similar issue about SQL Server 2012 setup issue, you can refer to the following posts.

SQL Server 2012 Standard and hyperthreading core count
I have 2 Intel E5-2640 v2 processors for my SQL Server 2012 Standard server. Each processor has 8 cores and has hyper threading so it has 16 logical cores. Will SQL standard be able to use hyper threading? Since it has a 16 core limit, does it see hyper
threading as an extra core or will it only look at the 8 cores each processor has?Ignoring licencing, Standard version can only use up to 16 cores. In my case I have 16 cores but 32 logical cores. Will the Standard edition only use the first 16 logical processors or will it use all logical cores since I have 16 physical cores
that just happens to have hyper threading?
As per my understanding whatever is less than 16, Physical core or logical core will use that .But I am not sure best answer would be from Microsoft.
Reading there below statement .
'When hyper-threading is enabled, the Basic Input Output System (BIOS) uses a logical to physical CPU ratio. Current implementations are using 2:1 ratios. This means that there are two (2) logical CPUs for each physical CPU. These ratios may change in the
future; however, Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3) and later versions have additional licensing code that adjusts the licensing restrictions to handle the ratio. For example,
if the SQL Server product code that you have installed permits a 4 CPU license at a 2:1 ratio, the SQL Server 2000 SP3 build and later builds adjust and let you use 8 CPUs.
So it says if you have license for 4 CPU but if it is hyperthreaded it can use 8.But again if number goes over 16 for standard edition I guess it would not use above 16.So in your case Enabling hyperthreading would have no use.
NOTE: This is complex discussion and correct answer would be what Microsoft says :)
PS: Please read link I have posted it is applicable to 2012 as well

Remove only SQL Server 2012 Standard and keep Express 2012
Hi everybody, We have installed both SQL 2012 Express and SQL 2012 Standard (licensed). All our instances which we need are running fine on the Express version.
I’m having problems uninstalling the licensed SQL 2012 Standard one. When starting the uninstall process I cannot see which server I’m removing.
My question is: how I can only for sure! remove the SQL 2012 Standard version and keep the Express 2012 working?
Greetings. TIA
win_builderHi,
To remove instance of SQL Server you have to go to Add remove program and search for
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (64 bit)
Then right click on it and select Uninstall/Change and screen will appear where you have to select REMOVE
then click on remove and below screen will appear
From above see the drop down , select SQL Server standard instance you want to remove. In your case it would be standard edition
On next page select features you want to remove
bThen Next... Next and you would remove SQL Server standard
Edit:
You can also uninstall from command line as below
Setup.exe /Action=Uninstall /FEATURES=SQL,AS,RS,IS,Tools /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER
Here /features is features you want to uninstall
/instancename is instance name of your standard edition
Please read Uninstall Section in below link

How scaling a SQL Server 2012 installation
Hi,
I need to know if it is possible to scale SQL Server 2012 by using more database servers in load balancing.
Many thanksHello,
My suggestion is to use AlwaysOn over any other method. I have not seen a load balancing hardware used for balancing SQL
Server yet, so I cannot share with you any useful experience. However, I found the following third-party solution.
http://blogs.citrix.com/2011/03/29/load-balancing-sql-2/
Try to avoid using Peer-to-Peer replication due to possible high latency, unless you use one of the instances to query data (SELECT) and the other to update data (INSERT/DELETE/UPDATE).
Sorry for my late response. It was a very busy day from the very first hours of the day.

Hope this helps.

SQL Server 2012 software and licencing
Hi folks,
We've purchased some per core licences for a SQL 2012 install.
When I try to install SQL 2012 I get asked to put in a licence key or choose evaluation, but all we have is paperwork proving the purchase of the licences, we were told we wouldn't be provided with a key.
The only way I know of to install the software without needing a key is if I download a copy from MSDN.
Am I OK to use an MSDN copy in production if we have the paper licences or should we be using a different software source?
If we can't are there copies of the SQL software available that doesn't need a key and is specifically for the above situation?
Thanks for any help on this,
Regards,
CJHello,
This is a community forum for technical questions & issues.
For question regarding pricing / licensing please contact a Microsoft sales partner or licensing expert.
Call (1-800-426-9400), Monday through Friday, 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM PST to speak directly to Microsoft licensing specialist.
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/products/sql-server/buy.aspx
But in common you should get the license key from the shop where you have purchased the license.

Can SQL Server 2012 witness monitor a 2008 R2 database.
Hi
I was wondering if it was possible for a sqlserver 201witness to monitor databases running sqlserver 2008R2. I am also curious to know about the vice versa possiblity.
ThanksThe two partners, that is the principal server and mirror server, must be running the same edition of SQL Server. The witness, if any, can run on any edition of SQL Server that supports database
mirroring.
