MSSQL 2008 Express

[NewsArchive]

Hi Friedrich,

I am using SB7.2.3015 and want to install a mssql 2008 express server. I
see in the Redistributable Manager that there is a version 10.00.1600.22
available. This one I have used. However, I do have a backup created with a
version 10.50.1600 which I can not restore because this backup is from a
higher version (661) than the 10.00 version (655).

Do you have a newer redistributable for this sql server version or can you
tell me how to install this 10.50 version?

Kinds regards,
Patriek

In the [SB_RUNTIMES]\sql2008expr folder, you'll find the original Microsoft
SQLEXPR_x86_ENU.exe redistributable. I think you only have to replace this
redistributable with the required version, recompile, and you should be
done.

Hi Friedrich,

indead this will work! You only had to add an extra parameter
'/IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS ' to the build command line.

Thanks,

Fredrich,

I'm new at this process. We have SB7. We have been reading the posts related
to installing MS SQL from SetupBuilder. Should the following be on my computer
"In the [SB_RUNTIMES]\sql2008expr folder"?

From the SB7 main screen, down on the left click the "Redistributable Manager". Then
you will be able to download the add-ons for SQL2008 etc.

Hi Ken,

What John said. This folder will only be there if you install the SQL2008
redistributable.
