OTOH it may be an isolated problem, at least relative to anything else you do with your computer.
It may not be worth the effort for trying out this one piece of software, but at the same time it's probably a sign of something on your computer which very well may cause other problems in the future. At this point it's just not entirely clear what the question is. There's probably a simple answer - maybe not pleasant, but probably simple. This sort of thing is what good IT people get paid for. Like I alluded to the other day, sometimes errors which don't make sense just means you've encountered a condition the developers didn't anticipate and you're getting some sort of default error message.
Even if it doesn't install correctly, maybe it will error out differently and that could still tell us something. What I would do, if it were me, is try installing the Advanced Tools version just to see if the same thing happens. However it's not something I would focus on for the moment. NET problems out entirely but experience tells me there isn't enough evidence to definitively say that. It appears to be for the tools, and since they're not installed for that version it's not supposed to be relevant. NET requirement, but you're correct insofar as it's not for the core server component. NET setup yesterday until you mentioned you were trying to install the LocalDB version. Having thus drawn a blank so far, I am posting this to see if there is anyone in the forum who could offer their practical experience of the installation of SQL 2012 Express or could suggest problem resolution re same. I have MySQL-for-Excel installed on the same laptop, and was unsure whether this could have been causing a conflict for the SQL Server 2012 install, but switching the MySQL off doesn't seem to make any difference to the latter install - File 02 it still abends with the same error message.I have searched the DC Forum, but could not find anything that might help.I tried DuckGo searches for problems with installing SQL 2012 Express, but could find nothing that helped or seemed close to the problem I was experiencing, or with a fix/workaround.I tried installing what seemed to be an earlier version of the file 02 from another MS website, but that abended with the same error message as for File 02.I tried installing File 03, but that abended with the same error message as for File 02.I tried installing File 01, and it installs (but is not of any use to me, I think).Following the LinkID=195092 just leads me in circles (I had already established that the system where the install was to take place met the pre-requisites).
Information, see Hardware and Software Requirements for installing SQL Server 2012 at:
For Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2, Service Pack 1 or later is required. For Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 operating systems, Service Pack 2 or later is The operating system on this computer does not meet the minimum requirements for SQL ServerĢ012. Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 Setup It goes into the install process just fine, but just as the progress bar gets to 100% it abends with the error message: SQLEXPRWT_圆4_ENU - (Express + Tools 64-bit).exeįile 02 is the one I apparently needed. SQLEXPR_圆4_ENU - (Express DB only 64-bit).exe
There are these 3 most recent files/versions that I could find available for download re SQL 2012 Express: I checked that the system where the install was to take place met the pre-requisites. I don't have any practical experience of installing SQL, but it seemed like it should be straightforward. Installing the Microsoft SQL Server Express for single usersįor single users, willing to use Tabbles on a single pc, installing the Microsoft SQL Server won't be too complicated.
net framework 4 (this is installed by the installer) and the Microsoft SQL Server (the free version, called "Express" works just fine). Tabbles 3 Requirement: Microsoft SQL Server NET Framework 4, and all updates up-to-date.Ĭurrently, I am running the thing with Tabbles' proprietary Cloud-based database, but I want to run it with a local MS-SQL database. I have installed Tabbles on a laptop with an i7 CPU, OS is Windows 7-64 Home Premium (Build 7601) with SP1. It can use either a proprietary Cloud-based database for the tag data, or Microsoft SQL Express. Tabbles is a sort of file tagging/categorisation tool that integrates with the Windows NTFS filing system.
I am trialling out a third-party product called Tabbles.
