I don't know why I am getting this error on my machine while installing SQL Server. I have tried installing 2008, 2012, 2014 versions but getting same error again and again. I have checked control panel to find any files of previous SQL server but nothing is there. Can any one guide me about this error. I have already wasted lot of time to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.

Check whether the installation path is too long or has many spaces.

I'm trying to install Microsoft SQL Server 2019 Express but I keep running into the above error message.
I was originally running into a separate error message when trying to install that said
A required file could not be downloaded
I followed the instructions on the following thread, which solved the original issue, but now I have a new error: A required file could not be downloaded while installing SQL Server 2019 Developer
There doesn't seem to be much info about this online, only thread I've found is brand new and I'll be monitoring it for a solution:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/816770/sql-express-2019-the-version-of-the-installer-is-n.html
I have already tried restarting my computer.
Thanks to anyone who can help.
I had the same issue, I executed the Powershell script as mentioned in the other thread (run powershell as an administrator), restarted my PC and used the re-downloaded installer (from the url in the error message). This time the installer went through. Hope it helps!
I tried again today with a new download and it worked! They must have fixed the issue. Hopefully everyone else can get it running today.
I am trying to install SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition, And I am getting this error:
there was a failure to calculate the default value of setting
instanceid
What can be the reason of that problem ?
I've experienced the same exact issue before. One of the things that you can do to verify if the image is correct, is to install this tool https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=11533 and find the checksum where you downloaded the image. If there are any issues it will let you know and it will help narrow down whether or not the issue is with the image or something on your system. In my case, it just worked after a restart, and the image validated fine.
I have searched all over this issue and have found no solutions.
This is the error I am getting:
An error occurred while executing batch. Error message is: Method not found: 'System.String Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Util.BytesToHexString(Byte[], Int32)'.
I had no issues with this prior to installing the Windows update for Service Pack 2 and I need this working for my class. My instructor also has no idea how to fix this other than a reinstall which is my LAST resort.
I know it is not my queries, as they ran perfect prior to this update.
Please help
I just had exactly the same problem, on a clean install of SQL Server 2014 (Express edition) and found that restarting the server itself cured the problem. (In Management Studio, right click on the server at the top of the tree in the object explorer and choose "Restart", or just restart the service...)
I have been trying to install SQL Server 2008 R2 and I get the following error
MOF Syntax Error.
And it happends when it gets to the "provider_Cpu32_WMI something.."
Does anyone know how I can fix this, I have tried the whole day with no luck..
Things I have tried,
Manually uninstalling SQL Server 2008 R2 by using Add/Remove Programs, deleting folders, deleting registry keys, etc....
I checked on google and many people had have problems with this... but I have tried it all with no luck.
Thank you in advance
Have you tried a slipstream install that has the CUs? I bet all the money in my pockets (25 cents mind you) that this will resolve the issue.
I previously had sql server 2005 express and uninstalled it.. I also uninstalled any vs related programs and installed visual web developer 2008 express edition with SP1. now that I am trying to install sql server 2008, I am seing error messages like no other and leave that alone without any suggestions..
the latest one which I could not come to a proper solution on the internet is;
consistency validation for sql server registry keys error which suggests
"The SQL Server registry keys from a prior installation cannot be modified. To continue, see SQL Server Setup documentation about how to fix registry keys.
as you might have guessed nothing so informative in the documentation... Also, when I try to delete any sql server related registry key, it does not let me. (yes I stopped all the related services..)
anybody here that can be of any assistance?
You can try with this procedure :
Stop all SQL Server Services
Remove all SQL Server Services with sc delete servicename
Control Panel - Add/Remove Programs - Select and Remove all Microsoft
SQL Server programs
Open regedit and remove all SQL Server folders in this registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT
Remove SQL Server folders from Program Files directory
Reboot
This procedure should resolve the issue, i've resolved with this procedure ...
i found this to happen if you had an add-in for SSMS installed which hasn't been uninstalled before ssms was uninstalled.
You may need to change the permissions on the relevant registry keys using regedt32 first so that you can then delete the keys via normal regedit
Well actually, I believe, one should not go through such mess in order to accomplish a simple task like this. In the end, I ended up formatting my PC and re-installing SQL Server.
I know this is an old question and you already said in comments that you reformatted the machine. However, I just ran into this exact message and wanted to share my solution because it was so easy, but the error message didn't help at all!
I was using the wrong installation package. I had a 64-bit Intel Windows 7 computer and I was trying to use the x86 version of SQL Server 2008. Once I found the correct version (x64) I did not get this error and the install proceeded normally.
I had a similar problem because I still had some remnants of SQL Server 2005 left - not the services, it was some parts of the IDE. Anyway, to resolve it I used the option to upgrade (sorry, I can't remember the exact option just now). After running the upgrade portion, which took a few minutes, I could then run the full install with no problems.
