Trying to install feature integration services on VM MS 2019 SQL 2017 web edition server, but it is missing the install files. According to Google SSIS is to be included in web edition licence..
If not, how do I then upgrade my SQL edition..

As the above comment mentions, the integration services are not available for the web addition. Currently, there is no way to upgrade to another OS version within GCP. You will have to create a new GCE VM instance and choose the proper OS image to use.

Change AWS windows machine

Currently I have got an AWS EC2 windows server machine along with SQL Server Web Edition.
In order to reduce costs, I want to get rid of SQL server web edition and put express edition on the same machine.
Can I do it? I was thinking of uninstalling web edition and then installing express edition on the same server. Will this suffice?
Any insights would be highly appreciated.
P.S. I do not have support plan with AWS, and that is why I am writing here on Stackoverflow.
Thanks.
No.
The price for the instance is determined by the AMI that was used when launching the instance. Even if you uninstall SQL Server, you will still be charged the same hourly charge.
You will need to launch a new instance with the desired version. You'll also need to migrate the data and any other software you have installed on the instance.
It's probably a good time to consider using Amazon RDS, which is a fully-managed database service that can keep the database separate from your other sofware.

Install SQL Server Analysis Services w/ SQL Server 2019 Developer

I want to install an instance of SQL Sever Analysis Services locally for development use. The Documentation indicates that this can be done with the installation exe, but I can't find that option when I run the developer exe from the installation site.
This page indicates that it should be available.
I figured it out.
Download the installer
Select custom installation

SSRS Mobile Reporting Not Supported

I am trying to test out the new SSRS 2016 features, here's what I have so far:
Signed up for an Azure trial
Installed a SQL Server 2016 VM
Created a DB
Configured the reporting services to run classic reports
Downloaded the Mobile Report Publisher
I have been trying stuff out using the predetermined data, however I wanted to pull in some data I'm familiar with. When I try to connect to the server (localhost/reports) I get a Server Error as the 'Server does not support mobile reports'.
Is there something I need to configure to enable this?
Thanks in advance
I think you are connecting to a standard edition of SQL SERVER 2016.

Unfortunately Mobile Reports are only supported in Enterprise Edition of SQL Server :(
I took the same install steps as you (robbiecutting). I'm running SS 2016 Developer edition. I found that there was no option for creating Mobile reports in the Report Builder (desktop app), but there is one in the web-based reporting services portal:
Desktop app:
Web portal:
It brings up a nice UI for creating one:

Can I install and run SQL Server locally to develop legally for free?

I'm developing a database-driven web application. I'm not always connected to the network so I'd like to setup a development environment on my laptop with a SQL Server database. The database won't be hit hard or anything, I just mainly need it so I can make sure my queries are setup correctly for my web pages.
I'm running Windows 7 locally. The actual database production environment is running SQL Server 2000. The web application is being built on Coldfusion8.
Visit SQL Server Downloads and download the Express edition
Yes, you can use Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 RTM - Express with Management Tools.
If you want to run SQL Server 2000, find an old copy of SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition.
You cannot install the full version of MSSQL Server on your computer for development purposes, but you can install MSSQL Server Express for this purpose.
Also, the developer edition for about $50 - this has all the features of the enterprise edition and is well worth the money.
Note that it should only be used for development and is not to be used in a production environment.
Yep, just pay £46 for a Developer's version (from the Microsoftstore) and you can enjoy all the features included in the enterprise version but you are limited to Dev and Test; you may not create for production servers using the Dev license.
I bought it a couple of days ago and have already created reports using Reporting Services.
NOTE: I've discovered that the report Builder is not compatible with Chrome (works fine with IE).

Reporting Services Installation in SQL Server 2008 [Release] 1

We have the full version of SQL 2008 Server (first release) installed and licensed from download (a couple years ago). Now we are getting into Reporting Services; however, it seems only the Express version of Reporting Services is installed.
In the control panel under Services, I only see "SQL Reporting Services (SQLEXPRESS)" listed. [Express is ALSO on the server]
I do not think the Reporting Services option was selected when we initially installed. I would like to go back and Change the installation, however I cannot find the SQL 2008 R1 installation disk or download.
Any advice? Thanks.
If you can't find the original SQL Server 2008 installation media and don't have any subscriptions with Microsoft that entitle you to digital downloads of your purchased software, then I think you can try downloading the Enterprise Evaluation copy from here and using your existing license key for Standard in the installation process. After that, you should be able to add the Reporting Services features. Definitely backup your server before trying this, of course.
Failing that, you can install the trial version from scratch and use your license to upgrade it to the non-time-limited version (the upgrade paths allow for this).
Microsoft does not licence Release Candidate (RC) software for production environments or long-term use. Instead, these are basically their version of beta software. In a production environment, you must use RTM software. If you check your license agreement from your initial download, you should see that you should be using the RC1 version of SQL Server 2008 only for testing.
As for how to install Reporting Services on an RTM version, unfortunately you are going to need the media. Since you believe you have a valid license, contact Microsoft and request a copy of the media. Once you have it, just run the setup.exe and it will allow you to modify your SQL installation to include SSRS.
