  • SQL Server 2012 Express on Window 8.1 64 bit version?

    Hi,
    I´m trying to install SQL Server 2012 Express on Windows 8.1 64 bit version. When I reach the point of "Installing Setup Files", of the installation process, the installation seems to halt. I´ve tried both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions of SQL 2012
    Express. I´ve installed SQL 2012 Express several times before on other Windows versions but I´ve never encountered this problem. Is it a known SQL Server 2012 Express/Windows 8.1 64 bit compability problem?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Error Calculating InstanceID when installing SQL Server 2012 SP1 on Windows 7 Home Premium SP1

    Hello...
    I know this issue has been on several tickets but I have not been able to find a satisfactory solution.  I am receiving error 0x85640001 "...error calculating instanceid" when I attempt to install SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition DVD. 
    I have downloaded the ISO for the enterprise evaluation product and tried burning it to a DVD-RW and decompressing the ISO to my desktop for installation without success.
    The log files do state the setup process runs into a badimageformat exception.
    I had SQL Server 2008 Developer edition installed on this laptop, but I have completely removed all prior SQL Server instances (using the uninstall wizard in Control Panel).
    Please let me know what you suggest to correct this problem.
    Thank you for your help!

    Hello,
    1. Uninstall any SQL Server 2012 component using Control Panel.
      2. Download the Evalaution Edition from the following link:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29066
      3.Perform an edition upgrade from evaluation edition to developer edition using the current media.

  • SQL Server 2012 Express error 9002 while restoring a backup from 2008

    Hi all,
    I have installed SQL Server 2012 Express on my laptop operating with win 8. Then I took the backup in my old laptop with SQL Server 2008R Express / Windows 7 and tried to restore it to the new one.
    After it restored it produced an error messaging saying that restore failed. The error code was 9002 and it says due to NOTHING. I checked the log file it is a file of 1024 kb size, not big. When I installed the SQL 2012 I disabled the autogrowth of the
    log file (exactly same setting as I had with 2008) The log is not big. I tried to further shrink, no change.
    Moreover the db is already there with full records, I can manipulate it.  Even take a back w/o problems. What is this issue? Is it resolved?
    thanks

    an error messaging saying that restore failed. The error code was 9002
    and it says due to NOTHING. I
    select *
    from sys.messages
    where message_id = 9002
    => "The transaction log for database '%ls' is full due to '%ls'. "
    Is your disk may low on free space?

    "An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Setup Support Files cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlsupport.msi'.

    Thanks and Regards,

    Hello,
    This issue may be related to some missing MSI cache files. The following article may help you restoring them.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969052
    First I want you to try uninstalling SQL Server setup support files using Control Panel, the follow instructions on the following article:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143412(v=sql.110).aspx
    If all the above is not successful, try to manually uninstall it using the following procedure:
    1. Uninstall all SQL Server 2012 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.

    Should I just delete everything as suggested in thread "SQL Server 2012 Install Failure 17190, Severity:16, State:1"
    Thank You to anyone who can give me a hand!

    Hi ,
    According to your description, as other post, this error may be occurred due to a corrupt user profile for the account running SQL Services. You can try change the service account to a local (built-in) account which have permission to read the private key
    of the SSL certificate. In addition, according to your error message, we need to examine the certificates that have been generated launching mmc.exe, for more information, see:

  • Perform Forced Manual Failover of Availability Group (SQL Server 2012) and WSFC (Windows Server Failover Cluster)

    I have a scenario with the three nodes with server 2012 standard, each running an instance of SQL Server 2012 enterprise, participate in a
    single Windows Server Fail-over Cluster (WSFC) that spans two data centers.
    If the nodes in the primary data center are unavailable due to data center outage. Then how I can able to access node in the WSFC (Windows Server Fail-over Cluster) in the secondary disaster recovery data center automatically with some script.
    I want to write script that can be able to check primary data center by pinging some IP after every 5 or 10 minutes.
    If that IP is unable to respond then script can be able to Perform Forced Manual Fail-over of Availability Group (SQL Server) and WSFC (Windows Server Fail-over Cluster)
    Can you please guide me for script writing for automatic fail-over in case of primary data-center outage?

    +1 to David's comment. I would not suggest to run a script automatically. During such failover you might have data loss and decision has to be made with business owners during disaster.
    During such situation, you need to start cluster service in force quorum mode (/fq switch) and then perform manual failover of AG to DR site.

  • 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.

  • SQL Server 2012 Install Errors on Server 2012

    I am getting an error when installed a new copy of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 on a newly created Server 2012 that has all its updates.  About 90% of the way through the installation this is the error I received below:
    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 Setup
    The following error has occurred:
    Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.
    Click 'Retry' to retry the failed action, or click 'Cancel' to cancel this action and continue setup.
    For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=20476&ProdName=Microsoft%20SQL%20Server&EvtSrc=setup.rll&EvtID=50000&ProdVer=11.0.3128.0&EvtType=0xDC112D1C%25400xBB814387
    Second Error when continuing: 
    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 Setup
    The following error has occurred:
    A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
    Click 'Retry' to retry the failed action, or click 'Cancel' to cancel this action and continue setup.
    For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=20476&ProdName=Microsoft%20SQL%20Server&EvtSrc=setup.rll&EvtID=50000&ProdVer=11.0.3128.0&EvtType=0xBA6E21AA%25400x9A41B222
    I clicked cancel on both errors but I don't know if this will impact my application. After the installation completes I can see everything passed except the Database Engine. Any thoughts on this issue?

  • 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.
