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.

VS 2013 Community and SQL Server Express 2005
Not sure if I'm in the right forum, but I'll give it a shot. I have a laptop with Vista and SQL Server Express 2005. I created a db on it and put a lot of time into it. But now the laptop is dieing. I am wanting to use the db with VS 2013
Community.
I plan to upload the db files to OneDrive from the Vista laptop and then download them to my new laptop that has VS on it. Will it work? Is it practical? Should I go with SQL Express 2008 or higher?
I'm just learning VS and not sure what to do. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
BillThanks for pvdg42’s help.
Hi Bill,
It seems that you have resolved certain issues, you know that one thread for one issue, so for the new issue, it would be better if you could post them in new threads.
>>The ProgramFiles folder has a folder Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0. The ProgramFiles(x86) has a VS 11.0 ands VS 12.0 folder. I did not know this when I downloaded 2013CE.
It would be related to your windows version 32 bit or 64 bit, for example, the 64 bit version windwos 8.1 in my side, it would setup in this path default:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0
In addition, my understanding the latest issue “The tables not show in object explorer window” would be related to the database upgraded from the old SQL Server version to the high version. So it would be not the VS IDE issue.
Of course, if you add a new table in this database, how about the result?
If you connect to the previous database in this high version, how about the result if you add a table?
I think if it would works well when you add a new table in other database of high version in VS2013, it means that it is not the VS IDE issue, the real issue would be related to your previous database.
My suggestion is that you could post this issue to the SQL Server forum since it is related to the database migration.

How do I connect Dreamweaver CS3 to SQL Server Express 2005?
I have an ecommerce software solution that was built in ASP
C# that is entirely database driven. I'm running SQL Server Express
2005 and when I create the connection, it pops up an "HTTP Error
Code 405 Method Not Allowed" window, and it won't let me view
anything inside the database. I have checked the credentials and
permissions, and I'm connecting to the database as sa and I know
the password is correct. Any idea how to fix this?I take it this is using ASP.NET 2.0(C#2005 and Visual Studio
2005). if so Dreamweaver sucks at this big time. My advice is for
you to download Visual Web Developer FREE, yes free from Microsoft
or buy a copy of Expression Web. Adobe missed this big time.
Dreameaver does ASP.NET 1.1 but not 2.0 or above and now with .NET
3.5 they might have to do some scrambling for this.
Either product from Microsoft is quite easy to set up
database and do this.
Even though I have used Dreamweaver from version 2.0, as soon
as you go C#, I would go to MS and use their tools.
Good luck -
SQL Server Express 2005 dilemma
I have a instance of SQL
server express 2005 that we have connected to some quoting software. The “server” is a installation XP Pro that we are going to update. So, I want to be able to copy the Databases and use them in the same computer after a OS update and a new install of SQL
Server Express 2005. I have not found specific instructions on how to do that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Backup all databases to 3 different storage places with verification:

Install SQL Server 2012 on the new os.
Restore the databases.

CF8 and SQL Server Express 2005 connection problem
Hi. I'm new to SQL Server (I'm running Express 2005 SP2 on
Vista - local machine) and I can't seem to connect to my datasource
with CF Admin. I submit the following information to CF Admin:
CF Data Source Name: MySampleDB
Database: MySampleDB
Server: MyMachine\MSSMLBIZ Port: 1433
User name: Me
Password: **********
I get the following error:
Connection verification failed for data source: MySampleDB
java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]No
more data available to read.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:
[Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]No more data available to read.
Log On is using built-in account: Local System
Here's what else i have done so far:
I have tried using 127.0.0.1 as the server
I made sure Windows firewall had an exception to allow port
1433
I tried ports 1434 and 8500
I made sure TCP/IP is enabled in SSCM protocols
I even tried leaving the username and pwd blank and I get the
following message:
Connection verification failed for data source: MySampleDB
java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC
Driver]Error establishing socket to host and port: 127.0.0.1:1433.
Reason: Connection refused: connect
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:
[Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket to
host and port: 127.0.0.1:1433. Reason: Connection refused: connect
I'm not sure where I'm going wrong. Thanks in advance for
your help!
-KrisHi,
The port might have been blocked. Try setting a new port for
your sqlserver. That may work for you.
(Because SP2 always blocks port 1433) -

Convert SQL server int to SSIS int - Bug and conversion issue ?
I am trying to convert an SQL server int to SSIS int. When I set it to int 32, i get an error -
[Execute SQL Task] Error: An error occurred while assigning a value to variable "intMy":
"The type of the value being assigned to variable "User::intMy" differs from the current variable type.
Variables may not change type during execution. Variable types are strict, except for variables of type Object.
when i change it to int16, i get the same error. also, ssis silently changes the int16 to int32. Could this be a bug ? How do you convert an sql server int to an ssis int ?Hi blastoSO,
Is the data type of the target column in the SQL Server table Int or BigInt? I have tested the issue in both SSIS 2008 R2 and SSIS 2012. In SSRS 2008 R2, the Int/BigInt type column value cannot be mapped to an Int16 or Int32 type SSIS variable with the error
you have encountered, however, in SSIS 2012, everything goes well.
In SSIS 2008 R2, we can work around this issue by map the result set to a String type SSIS variable (vStr), and then create a new Int16 or Int32 type variable (vInt) which is evaluated as expression and retrieves value from the previous string variable.
For the expression of the variable vInt, we can set its expression to (DT_UI4)@[User::vStr]. Besides, keep in mind that you need to assign an integer value for the string type variable at design time to make the expression for the variable vInt pass the validation.

SQL server express 2005 Creating a "user instance"
How do you create a user instance so that you dont have to be logged on as administrator?
Hi
* A User Instance is a feature of SQL EXPRESS and will be created for you dynamically if and only if you are using a database which is
not attach to any other instance, and you do have SQL Express installed.
* It will not help you to change only the connection string if the database already attach to the other server instance, This will rise an error that the database is in use.
* A user instance need that the user will have proper security permeation on the folder where the database files are.
* As Olaf mentioned, and once you are meet the above requirements AND the requirements mentioned in the link Olaf post (I dont know why they did not mentioned the above requirements or maybe i did not notice it there...), Then you can use a connection
string which open a user instance.
* This problem is most common in my experience (trying to open a user instance using a database which is already attach to other instance)! for example a database which is attach to constant instance or a database which is attach to some other user
instance.

Please note that this is NOT a question about fixing this one installation. This is an SQL Server Express install as part of my application install and MUST WORK FIRST TIME, EVERY TIME. Please direct me.
Paul T.Here are the parameters used with the SQL Server Express installer EXE (both x86 and x64):
/q /hideconsole /action=Install /features=SQL /instancename=SQLEXPRESS /enableranu=1 /sqlsvcaccount="NT Authority\Network Service" /AddCurrentUserAsSqlAdmin /skiprules=RebootRequiredCheck /IAcceptSQLServerLicenseTerms
I presume that TCP/IP is not enabled by default for Express installs. I THINK that named pipe should be enabled.

Paul T. -
We have purchased a new computer that has Win 8.1 Pro. We are migrating an application from a Win 7 Pro machine we are currently successfully using (the vendor migrates it for us) and they have said that the application will require the installation of SQL
Server 2008 Express (which we do have on our Win 7 machine).
In looking at the requirements for SQL Server 2008 Express (on the download page for it), it does not mention it being compatible with Win 8.1
In addition, Installation Instructions says that it requires:
Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1
Windows Installer 4.5.
Windows PowerShell 1.0
I see that 3.5 is already listed as a program feature of Win8.1 and I've enabled it. Do I need to install SP1? I downloaded it, and launched it, and nothing happened.
I also looked at the Windows Installer 4.5 download page, and it's not clear if that is compatible with 8.1. Do I need to download and install it?
Power Shell 2.0 is already installed. I assume that will be backwards compatible with PowerShell 1.0; is that correct?
I saw another question about SQL Server Express Compatibility with Win 8.1 (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/038ec00e-4fc1-41ba-9fdc-21c022aad67e/action?threadDisplayName=sql-server-express-compatibility-with-windows-81) and the response
said that SQL Server Express 2012 will work, but the link contained in the answer led to a page for SQL Server Express 2014.
My vendor has told me that SQL SERver Express 2012 will be backwards compatible with their product. But they said that I would first have to install 2008 first. Is that correct for Win 8.1?
So, the ultimate questions are:
1. What is the link for Sql Server 2012 Express for Win 8.1?
2. Will the SQL Server 2012 Express download require prior install of the 2008 version
3. What other component requirements are required for SQL Server 2012 Express, and how can I determine if they have already been installed. (This is a brand new computer with a clean Win8.1 Install).
4. Finally, can we use the 2014 version of SQL Server Express for Win 8.1? If so, questions 1, 2 and 3 apply, too.
Thanks for your help on this!! HIGH ANXIETY.Hello,
The following article provides which updates are required to make SQL Server versions compatible with Windows 8 or 8.1:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681562/en-us
1. You can use the product updates feature on SQL Server 2012 to make it compatible with Window 8.1. Apply SP1 as described on the following
article:
http://www.sqlcoffee.com/SQLServer2012_0008.htm
2. No.
3. Download and install .NET Framework 4.0 and enable .NET Framework 3.5. For more information:
http://www.sqlcoffee.com/SQLServer2012_0017.htm
4. Yes, you can use SQL Server 2014 with Windows 8.1. Please refer to the Support article provided above.
Hope this helps.

What MS SQL Server Express version should I install?
Hi, I'm planning to use MS SQL Express for my LabVIEW app under Windows 7.
There are 3 versions available on the MS site: 2005, 2008, 2012. My first choice is on the latest, however I wonder if there may be any reason to choose an earlier version.
Also I wonder if the installation could conflict some way with the SQL Server Express 2005 the DSC module uses.
Sorry for my rather dumb questions but I'm not very strong on the relational databases subject.
Thanks a lot for any comment.

LV 7.0, 7.1, 8.0.1, 2011Ranjeet...
I am using SQLServer Express 2012 with TestStand 2012 and having no luck getting TestStand to log to the catalog that I have created based off of the standard NI SQL scheme.
When creating the tables using the build sql file I found that...
I ran ito issues with the 'constraint' SQL commands TestStand was using:
CONSTRAINT STEP_RESULT_FK FOREIGN KEY (UUT_RESULT) REFERENCES (ID))
this must actually be:
CONSTRAINT STEP_RESULT_FK FOREIGN KEY (UUT_RESULT) REFERENCES UUT_RESULT (ID))
Note.... the 'UUT_RESULT' infront of (ID), without this the statement fails.
I had to correct all the constraint commands in order to get the tables built.
Now when I try to use the catalog to log data using TestStand I get...
An error occurred calling 'LogResults' in 'ITSDBLog' of 'zNI TestStand Database Logging'
An error occurred executing a statement.
Schema: SQL Server Stored Proc (NI)
Statement: UUT_RESULT.
Description: Could not find stored procedure 'InsertUUTResult'.
Number: -2147217900
NativeError: 2812
SQLState: 42000
Reported by: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Source: TSDBLog
The procedure is present so I am confused.
FYI... I am currently using TestStand in eval mode as I am waiting on delivery, could the eval mode be the issue???
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have done this before with TestStand 3.5 and SQL Server 2008 with no problems so I am confused why it not working now.

I have tried installing SQL Server 2008 multiple times on my machine, and I always receive this error about 3/4 of the way through: '' is not a valid login or you do not have permission.
I have tried installing both SQL Server Express 2008 with Tools and SQL Server Express 2008 with Advanced Services, and they both fail the same way. I am trying to do a new stand-alone installation.
I'm running Windows XP Home Edition SP3.
Looking into the error, some forums say I have to install it from THE Administrator account, and not an account with administrator permissions; it also cannot be in Safe Mode, because then the Windows Installer won't work. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to login to the Administrator account. I can go to the home login screen, do ctrl+alt+del twice, and attempt to login to the Administrator account, but I receive this error: Unable to Log You on because of an Account Restriction.
Other forums say that in the Server Configuration section, all you have to do is provide the username and a strong password from an administrative account on the computer, and it doesn't have to be THE Administrator. Well, I did that, but for some reason it doesn't recognize my username and password, it says something like "The credentials you provided for the SQL Server Agent are invalid". BUT THOSE ARE THE CORRECT CREDENTIALS FOR MY ADMINISTRATIVE USER! So I'm forced to use one of the accounts without a password, like NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. That's the only way I can get past this step.
Also, just FYI, on the next step, which is Database Engine Configuration, I am using Mixed Mode for the Security Mode. I AGAIN provide a password, and then add my current user (who IS an administrator on my machine!) to the SQL Server Administrators box.
But yet, it fails every single time.
This is pathetic and ridiculous. I must have tried to install this thing 15 times, that is not an exaggeration. I'm posting this on several other forums as well, maybe an MVP or Bill Gates himself can help me.
I have one of the log files from a failed installation. If someone would like to see it, I will post it.Papy Normand wrote:

Have a nice day
PS : if you are talking about the Sql Server Agent Service, it is disabled for Sql Server Express. It is enabled only for the Workgroup/Standard/Dev and Entreprise Editions
Sorry, but I've tried the suggestion in that link, and it hasn't helped me.
For anyone wonder, the link is talking about the problem in Server Configuration where I enter my Windows user account and password (which is in the Administrative group), but it says the credentials are invalid. The link suggests that you need to either enter your Windows account (which I did, and it wouldn't let me go to the next step), or to use one of the built in accounts (which I also tried, but it gave me the " '' is not a valid login" error during the installation).
Any other ideas?
I haven't had any answers from any other forums either, so I'll just post my log file in case anyone wants to look at this:

SQL Server Express - License Confusion
Good day everyone,
We were audited for Microsoft Installations recently and the auditing company indicated that we need to pay license fees for SQL Express installations as core components like Reporting Services have been installed with the SQL Express Instance.
Please advise if that is the case, because as far as I know SQL Server Express is free to use and free to deploy. Honestly this sounds like someone trying to make money for something that was provided free of charge to the community.
Thank you in advance for any wisdom shared.Hello,
Have you considered calling Microsoft Licensing about this? You can call 1-800-426-9400, Monday through Friday, 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. (Pacific Time) to speak directly to a Microsoft licensing specialist. You can also visit the following site for more information
and support on licensing issues:
http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/mla/default.aspx
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Alberto Morillo
