SQL Server 2014 Developer Setup Sudden Exit on Windows 7 Ultimate SP1

Setup flashes a black window and gone in a fraction of a second. No continuation. No logging started yet.
This is an official Microsoft DVD, not a download.
Geeksquad just checked the computer, nothing wrong with it.
SQL Server 2012 2 instances working OK on the computer.
I had the same trouble with Enterprise trial download and Express download.

  • SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition

    Microsoft is no longer offering version 2012 developer edition. So, is SQL Server 2014 developer edition ok to use with SQL Server 2012? Thanks.

    AFAIK you can ask/purchase  developer edition in local MS office.. But it is certainly OK to use SQL Server 2012 Dev Edition to manage servers from different versions.

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition

    Hi All,
    I tried to buy and download the Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition for studying purposes, but it turned out that this specialized edition is not available in my region - Middle East.
    The Express edition is available free of charge for all regions, but it lacks the more advanced administration & BI features I am interested in, whereas the  Evaluation edition is limited to 180-day.
    Please, advise how I can purchase the Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition.
    Thanks in advance,
    Corina.

    You can buy developer edition from below links
    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/SQL-Server-2014-Developer-Edition/productID.298540400
    and
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Microsoft-SQL-Server-2014-Developer/dp/B00JKMY8KC
    If anyhow there is delay in shipment you can go with SQL Server 2014 evaluation edition. It is same as Developer but can only be used for 180  days

  • SQL SERVER 2014 Developer Trial

    I am attempting to install sqlserver 2014 Developer Edition
    My os is Windows 8 (64 bit) Home Edition
    Ive extracted the software and burned the files to my DVD (I also tried doing this from my hd
    I am the only user account on my PC and I am the administrator and I have full control on all of my settings
    When I invoke the setup executable (Ive tried run this as administrator or I have just run this) , go to the Installation section and choose
    New SQL Server stand-alone installation or add features to an existing installation, I get the following error msg
    "Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation"
    I hit the internet and found that this error would occur if the nbr of characters in the environment variables Path statement >= 2048. I checked mine - it is only 952 
    I then ran the System Configuration Checker - I get an error for the Rule - "Setup Administrator. It says the SQL Server Setup does not have administrator rights on this computer. To continue, use an account with administrator rights"
    I did additional research on Microsoft's site and found (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2000257)_- a fix that involved editing the Local Security Policy - Ive discovered through additional research that the file that drives this is not availalble in Windows
    8 Home Edition
    Tired and in  dire need of help -

    Since the error message is a generic one, it is difficult to draw any far-reaching conclusions from it. All we know is "something went wrong".
    From where did you get files? If it was a download, try again; the bits may have been corrupted.
    You can also look in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Setup Bootstrap\Logs and see if you find any more clues.
    By the way, when I look at
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506.aspx
    I don't see Windows 8 Home listed, but there is an entry for "Windows 8" alone, whatever that means.

  • SQL SERVER 2014 Developer - SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) - Tools in Toolbox are disabled because of bad path to DTS

    Hello all,
    after populating the Toolbox of SSMS  with the "Maintenance Plan Tasks" all task are disabled. The reason is simple a bad path to the DTS modules. The path in the Toolbox points to ...\DTSTasks\... Installation has created a path of ...\DTS\Tasks\...
    This is clearly a bug. But perhaps there is a workaround by changing something in the configuration. Any idea where to look for the responsible configuration file?
    Regards Uwe

    Hi Uwe,
    Based on my research, just as you said, the path of Maintenance Tasks in the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box points to ...\DTSTasks\..., but the actual path is...\DTS\Tasks\....I can reproduce the issue in my SQL Server 2014, SQL Server 2012 and SQL Server
    2008 R2 environments. It seems that this is a known issue. But the issue doesn’t affect the use of maintenance tasks, we can still drag the tasks to design the maintenance plan.
    If you have concern about this issue, it is my pleasure to help you to reflect your recommendation to the proper department for their consideration. Please feel free to submit your situation on our product to the following link
    https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve our products and increase the level of service provided.
    As to the issue that all tasks are disabled in the Toolbox of "Maintenance Plan Tasks", please make sure that you have selected the tasks in the Choose Toolbox Items dialog box. Then double-click the task in Toolbox pane or drag the task to maintenance
    design tab.
    Thanks,

  • SQL Server Express 2008 Setup Error : Exit code -2147467259.

    Hello.
     I have been trying to install SQL Express 2008, 3 different editions on a Windows 2008 Standard Server.  All of the installers failed just after the install file had finished unpacking itself in a temp folder. No errors or logs were found.
    .Net3.5sp1, Windows Installer 4.5 and PowerShell 1.0 were all installed.
    I was only able to find a log file when I used the SqlExpressWrapper.exe to drive the installation.
    The error displayed from the wapper is : An error occurred during installation of SQL Server 2008 Express. Installation failed with exit code -2147467259

    Ok I found the log file. I used Process Monitor to trace setup.exe and it created SQLSetup.log in %userprofile%\appdata\local\temp\SqlSetup.log.
    these are the lines which seem to be causing the error. Any idea of how I fix this ?

  • VM - How do I install sql server 2014 developer edition using my MSDN licence

    If I download it from MSDN, there is only a disk image. The .exe downloads are for the Express edition.

    My advice is don't install the image with SQL Server pre-installed as it will burn through your Azure credits at eye watering speed since you are paying for the SQL Server licence. As Manesh
    says once downloaded you can just double click the ISO and it will mount and open an Explorer window automatically. Only Windows 8 / 2012 onwards though IIRC.

  • SQL SERVER 2014 Installation error

    Hi, I'm having great difficulty in installing SQL server 2014 developer edition 64- bit . When I use to run setup it says sql server boot strapper.dll is missing although it is present inside the folder and when I opened the sql setup bootstrapper.dll it
    gives the error "This file doesn't have a program associated with it for performing this action".  ? I've attached the snapshot of the error as well.
    Needs immediate help.

    Hello,
    Are you trying to install from a network share/location? Could you try to copy the media to a folder on the c:\ drive.
    If the media is an .ISO file, please unzip it using WinRAR and install from that folder on the C:\ drive.
    If the above does not help, could you try to download the media again.
    The following article may be useful.

    Hope this helps.

  • Data Streaming Destination in SQL Server 2014?

    I would like to publish a SSIS package as a SQL view. I'm working with SQL Server 2014 Developer edition, and
    SSDT-BI for Visual Studio 2013.
    The instructions for SQL Server 2012 are here:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn600376(v=sql.110).aspx
    The steps include downloading and installing the
    Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Integration Services Data Feed Publishing Components. 
    I'm not able to find a similar package for SQL Server 2014.  I've tried all kinds of maneuvers (installing the SSIS 2012 and SSDT-BI for VS2012 components, attempting to upgrade SSIS 2012 packages with the Data Streaming Destination to SSIS 2014,
    etc.), but I've not found any way to be able to use a Data Streaming Destination in SSDT-BI for VS2013 targeting SSIS 2014.  Am I missing something?

    It seems not be supported in BIDS 2013.
    Regards, Leo

  • SQL Server 2014 Official Final Version ---- Data Tools (SSIS, BIDS, etc.)

    I have VS 2013 Professional, and just installed SQL Server 2014 Developer version. Can someone tell me where the proper location for the Data Tools (fka BIDS) is located ? I'm seeing CPT1, etc. but looking for the truly released version.
    THank you,
    John

    Hi,
    SSDT-BI installs the Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools Business Intelligence project templates for Analysis Services, Integration Services, and Reporting Services. SSDT does not contain those BI project templates.
    SQL Server Data Tools for SQL Server 2014 is available declares that there is a update for Visual Studio 2012 and 2013 has been pushed
    which makes SQL Server Data Tools fully compatible with SQL Server 2014.
    As I understand, what you need is SSDT-BI and checking updates would not do much help.
    Per http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42313, Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2013 has been removed from the Download
    Center since April 11.
    SSDT-BI has been temporarily removed to deal with side by side issues with SSDT-SQL.
    Please be patient and wait it to be reposted. However, I cannot guarantee when it may be released. Sorry for the inconvenience you have experienced and thank you for your understanding and continued support.
    Thanks.

  • SQL Server 2014 purchase in UK

    How do I buy SQL Server 2014 development edition in the UK?  The UK version of the MS online shop doesn't have it, Amazon UK doesn't have it, I can't find an MS Partner in the UK who sells that license.  I've tried a few other places (FR, ES)
    to no avail.
    The same problem existed for SQl 2012 deveoper edition in the early days.  Does MS have a policy of not making developer edtion available in Europe until months after the other editions?

    Hello,
    Please try the following resource:

    Buy it there, and Microsoft Store will send it to your address in the UK.
    Hope this helps.
