Uninstall SQL Server 2008 Express R2 and SQL Server 2012 unsuccessfully

HI
I want to uninstall SQL Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2012 but it was successful.
When I try to uninstall 2008 R2
It shows the sqlsupport.msi can't find
Warning 26003.  Microsoft Server 2008 R2 Setup Support Files cannot be uninstalled because the following products are installed:
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 Common Files are installed
SQL Server 2008 R2 Dabtabase Engine Shared
Microsfot SQL Server R2 RsFx Driver
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 Database Engine Services
When I uninstall 2012, it shows the SQL Browser has been installed.
Warning 26003.  Microsoft SQL sERVER 2012 Setup Support Files cannot be uninstalled because the following products are installed:

I tried to uninsall SQL Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2012.
Yes, I did what you said : right click on Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 and then uninstall.
System pop up window says :

I hope you are uninstalling from Add remove program. Can you first uninstall
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 Common Files are installed

SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 Database Engine Services
And then uninstall the

  • Installing SQL Server 2008 Express on windows 2000 server ?

    Is is possible to install SQL Express 2008 on a Windows 2000 machine. Has anybody come across any issues doing this. any advice would appreciated.
    Thanks in advance
    Jayce.

    Hi Jayce,
    The web page "Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2008 R2" does not list Windows 2000 as a compatability option as follows; -
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143506.aspx#Express32
    The earliest desktop operating system listed is Windows XP.
    So I understand you can't successfully install SQL Express 2008 on a Windows 2000 machine.
    Kind Regards,
    Kieran.

  • Upgrade to SP3 from sql server 2008 R2 SP2 and SharePoint server 2010 known issues

    Hi Guys,
    We are planning to upgrade SQL server to SP3 from 2008 R2 SP2 and would like to known if there are any known issues with SharePoint 2010 server and office web apps.
    Though I was searching blogs and forums and could not find any noteworthy but wanted to look if any noted SharePoint issues after the upgrade.
    VM

    Hi Venu,
    There should no issue for SharePoint 2010 with install SP3 for SQL2008R2 (also like comments mentioned in article below), I searched from internal and internet, there seems no document/article mentioned the known issue for SharePoint about this, you can
    back up your environment and test the SP3 in a test environment before touching the production environment.

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 compatibility with TFS 2012?

    Hi all,
    I have a client who is planning on upgrading from SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 to SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 but wants to make sure that their installed Team Foundation Server 2012 databases will be ok?
    I have found a Microsoft article saying that TFS 2012 support SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 but nothing about SP3.
    Thanks for your help!
    Martyn

    Hi Martyn,
    According to this
    article, Team Foundation Server 2012 (TFS 2012) requires SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 or SQL Server 2012. From my point of view, it means that we need to run at least SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 when using TFS 2012, and TFS 2012 can work with SQL Server 2008
    R2 SP1 later version (contains SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 and SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3).
    In addition, we recommend you install the latest released service pack for your SQL Server, as service pack includes a number of important fixes that TFS could benefit from.
    For TFS issues, for quick and accurate response, I would like to recommend that you ask the question in the Visual Studio  Team Foundation Server forums at
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/home?category=vstfs . It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
    Thanks,

  • SQL Server 2008 Express Setup Issue SKU

    Hi,
    a  configuration file driven setup worked on roughly 30 machines without problems.
    However, on one certain machine (which is costumer owned in Saudi Arabia) the installation seems to
    be blocked at an early stage. Logfiles reporting something about "SKU", but this makes not clear for me
    what the problem is.
    The Summary.txt is pasted, below this Details.txt is placed (the bottom part which contains the error portion).
    Thanks for help in advance!

    Hi,
    a  configuration file driven setup worked on roughly 30 machines without problems.
    However, on one certain machine (which is costumer owned in Saud Arabia) the installation seems to
    be blocked at an early stage. Logfiles reporting something about "Invalid edition ... SKU", but it not clear for me
    what the problem is. 
    The Summary.txt is shown here, below this I will paste Details.txt (the bottom part which contains the error portion).
    Thanks for help in advance!
    Peter

    Hello,
    Please try to uninstall all SQL Server components using Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs.
    If you have already uninstalled SQL Server before trying to reinstall, please perform the following steps to manually uninstall SQL Server:
    1. Uninstall all SQL Server 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.
    Once you have uninstalled, please try to reinstall again.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    You can install SQL server express 2008 on machine having SQL Server 2008 r2 is supported. From what you posted I guess SQL server 2008 r2 is default instance so you need to install SQL server 2008 express SP1 as named instance. Your error matches problem
    mentioned in below thread
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/1e8cfab3-4b99-4b4d-82bf-97799dabe34c/failure-when-installing-from-command-prompt-config-file?forum=sqlexpress

  • SQL Server 2008 Express edition install issue.

    Ok, i've been looking around forums for a while now and have not found a post similar to this one or one that offers a solution; so here it goes.
    I'm trying to install management studio and in the web platform installer i keep getting this error:
    "You must install visual C++ 2008 SP1 before you can install SQL server 2008 Express with tools"
    I managed to get the install to "work", but it didn't actually install the studio app. So heres my questions:
    Firstly...why? i've installed this before and not had any issues at all, so why the sudden need for C++?
    Secondly, does anyone have any insight into my problem and how i cant actually install it?
    The only real difference between this install and previous installs is that i'm not running it on vista home premium 64-bit (previously 32-bit).
    I tried installing visual C++ express, but that didn't work.
    Thank you in advance and for giving up your time to read this.

    Hi,
    Based on the error message, your computer has Visual C++ 2008 before you install SQL Server 2008. However, Visual Studio 2008 does not support having Visual Studio 2008 without a service pack. The error message indicates you to install Service Pack 1 for Visual C++.  Please download Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1 from the following link and install it:
    http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=FBEE1648-7106-44A7-9649-6D9F6D58056E&displaylang=en
    For more information, please refer to "Actions that are required before you install SQL Server 2008 on a computer that has Visual Studio 2008 or the prerelease version of SQL Server 2008 installed":

    If there are any more questions, please let me know.

  • SQL Server 2008 Express - timeout issues, "This SqlTransaction has completed; it is no longer usable."

    Good morning all!   I work for a small business that uses a robust Accounting/Inventory database called Traverse (or Open Systems) and is run on a desktop computer using SQL Server 2008 Express.
    We don't have an IT department, but I have a bit of knowledge, so I've been the go-to person to handle any tech support issues in our tiny 5 person office.  I've been reading up on SQL Server 2008 Express, but am completely stumped on this issue.
    Our database would work consistently well for quite a while - sometimes getting disconnected from the server and requiring a restart of either the SQL Server itself or the Traverse License Server.
    About two weeks ago, I noticed that nobody had ever run Windows Update on the desktop that we have SQL Server on, so I spent the better part of a day updating everything, hoping it would help some of the little buggy issues we've been having.   Unfortunately,
    by applying the updates, I think it may have altered settings - or updated appropriately and our functionality is diminished.
    Basically, we have 3 users connecting into the server to use the database at any time.  Sometimes we might not be accessing information constantly, and it appears we're getting a timeout message in the SQL Server Log - stating the system was awoken
    by user activity after around 25-30 minutes.  When this happens, the system is painfully slow and locks up, giving SQL Server Connection errors, or the "This SqlTransaction has completed; it is no longer usable." message.   I noticed that
    there is a connection timeout of 15 seconds set for our SQL Server, but it's greyed out in the dialog box I saw it in, and am not sure if that's even a culprit.
    I'd just like to get this working again to where we can continue to use the database throughout the day without waiting for it to seemingly load all of the data after "waking up".  It's to a point that one of my employees is coming into my
    office every 5 minutes complaining that she can't do anything in Traverse.  I'm about to lose my mind!  
    If anyone has any clue what could be the issue, I'd be so grateful for help.  If you need any logs, messages, etc.. please let me know which and I will share them.  Thank you again!

    This is known as the Zombie Check exception. It is generally caused by trying to commit a transaction twice or trying to roll back a committed transaction. It can also be caused by a connection closing before the transaction is complete. In you case I would
    suspect the latter.
    See this article on setting the default timeout.

  • SQL Server 2008 Express R2 exceeds the storage capacity of Oracle XE

    Hello, here is a novelty: SQL Server 2008 Express R2 exceeds the storage capacity of Oracle XE, XE you still limited to 4GB of data from, the competition gets better and offers a bit more, XE remains the same, hopefully Oracle 11g XE exceeds storage and memory to SQL Server.

    Yes, I do good work is correct, I have not thought to migrate from Oracle XE to SQL Server Express because it could not work with the flexibility of PL / SQL and other Oracle features own, however, SQL Server 2008 R2 Express if takes the lead XE in storage, at which Oracle Corp. will match or exceed, offer more storage in response to competition and not only compensate for the limitation of 4GB with Excellency good features.

  • Install SSMS on SQL Server 2008 Express

    Hi,I'm trying to install SSMS on my Windows 2008 Server running SQL Server 2008 Express.
    I get the following error when I try to install it:
    How do I get around this? I thought I had at least SP1 installed but don't know how to check.

    Hello,
    The easiest way is to install SSMS with SP3, you can get it here:
    Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express Service Pack 3
    Otherwise: It's just a warning, go on with Installation and apply SP1 (or better SP3) afterwards:

    Hi Manne,
    As your description, you come across an error when trying to install SQL Server 2008 express Service Pack 1 on windows XP Service Pack 3 machine. From your error log, I get the error(unable to read registry value). As my analysis, the issue could be due
    to that your account doesn't have access to registry. Below are the recommendations for troubleshooting the issue.
    1. Make sure that you log in as an administrator of the machine.
    2. Please follow the steps below to make sure that you have granted the right permission to registry.
    a. Located HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server in registry.
    b. Right click and go to Permission, then you could see user accounts or groups. If your user account is not in the list, you could click Add to add your account there.
    c. Select your account and Click on Advance.
    d. Check on both check box ('Include inheritable permissions from this object's parent'.
    and 'Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object'), click OK.
    e. Click OK again.
    Regards,

  • Sql server 2008 express on Lan

    Hello Experts,
    i installed sql server 2008 express on my clients machine. Two machines are connected to this server machine on lan.
    i have made a connection string with sa with password. all machines access sql server database with that string.
    problem is when on all machines, work is on progress clients machines most of the times hangs. Is any configuration required on server machin? or separate machines should have separate user id and password. when a single machine is used whether it is server
    or client then no problem
    Please help me.
    Regards.
    Tariq Iftikhar

    That is odd, two clients connect to the server and server hangs? Remember SQL Express allows you to use 1 CPU so if you run "heavy" queries it may block and cause performance degradation
