Express 2014 with Advanced Services, can't create Full Text Index - sql-server

I can't confirm that Full-text service is running or installed. There is no sql server full text search [instance] running as a service on the machine. I thought this would be installed with advanced services? But it's not there.
When I run
select fulltextserviceproperty('isfulltextinstalled')
I get a '0' which according to other posts means that it is not installed. I installed Sql Server Advanced Services 2014 with all tools checked. And in Sql Server Configuration Manager I see the service 'Sql Full Text Filter Daemon Launcher' and it is running. Is there another service that I don't have running that needs to be there? How do I install full text search for Sql Server Express 2014 With Advanced Services or install the service so that I can run full text search? Please help !
When running this command
CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG GftExGiftFTCat;
I get the message:
Cannot use full-text search in user instance.

Ok so I figured out that I was using localDb and full text search does not work on LocalDb. So I switched over to Sql Express.
Question - I'm developing a MVC 5 application with code first. Because I'm not using localdb anymore will I run into any development issues or any roadblocks?

Analysis Service connection issue

I'm new to SQL Server.
I downloaded
adventure-works-multidimensional-model-full-database-backup.zip
adventure-works-tabular-model-1200-full-database-backup.zip
from GitHub
I would like to restore this in SQL Management Studio Analysis Services, but to do this, I need to create an instance
According to Microsoft, I installed
1)MS SQL Server Management Studio 2)MS SQL Server Data Tools
How do I create Analysis Service Instance to log into so I can restore adventure-works-tabular-model-1200-full-database-backup > Adventure Works Internet Sales Tabular Sample Database > Adventure Works Internet Sales Database.abf
I searched and found this: Restore Instance of Analysis Service I downloaded the SQL Server Developer Edition, but I'm still not able to connect, the server name field is not auto-populating, I tried with localhost\SQLEXPRESS, but it's not working (and it works if I select "DB engine" from the drop-down list). The error says: "A connection cannot be made to redirector. Ensure that 'SQL Browser' service is running. (Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient). Can't establish a connection to 127.0.0.1:2832(System)".
I checked, and the SQL Browser is running properly, set on "local system".
Might it be a firewall issue?
I can't upload any image, sorry.
Thanks in advance for your help.
How do I create Analysis Service Instance to log into so
You have to install it. You can download Developer Edition, and run the installer to add an Analysis Services instance in Tabular mode.

Can't create a SSISDB catalog due to missing SSISDBBackup.bak file, even though SSIS is installed

I've downloaded SQL Server 2016 standard edition trial along with SSDT in order to test what one can do with a standard edition in SSIS, SSRS, and SSAS.
I also wanted to know whether standard version's SSISDB logging capabilities differs from the one in Enterprise. For this I wanted to create an SSISDB catalog under Integration Services Catalogs in SSMS.
When I try to do this, however, I get the error saying that
The catalog backup file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\130\DTS\binn\SSISDBBackup.bak could not be accessed. Make sure the database file exists, and the SQL server service account is able to access it
From googling this issue it appears as this message shows up whenever someone doesn't have SSIS installed, but I have SSIS on the machine, I've even made a small Project and executed it from within SSIS without any issues just to verify.
I have set this up on localhost where I am the admin. Does anyone have any ideas why this won't work?
Regards,
Cenderze
To check if SSIS installed, open Sql Server Configuration Manager, in the SQL Server Services, is something like 'SQL Server Integration Services 13.0' running?
Experienced this error message on MS SQL Server 2017.
Resolved by launching MS SQL Server 2017 install media, added Integration Services feature.
After successful installation, when back into SSMS, right-click on Integration Services Catalog for Create Catalog... option.
You will be asked for an encryption password to create the new SSISDB.
Hope this helps!
I faced with this error when I used lower version of SSMS than SSIS. Check if you use proper version of SQL Management Studio.
You need to go back to the SQL Server installation and check the integration services checkbox.
The issue is because SQL Integration services is not installed properly with the existing SQL Server you are using.
you can check if SQL Integration services are installed or not by,
Opening --> SQL Server Configuration Manager--> SQL Server Services --> Check if "SQL Server Integeration Services is there"
if its there and if you still get the same issue try re-installing.
Else install the SQL Integration services to your existing SQL Server.
The detailed step to installation is given in this link : https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/6635/install-ssis/
hope this helps !!

Will installing full text search on live SQL server 2008r2 database server cause downtime?

Will adding the SQL full text component an existing live SQL Server 2008R2 Database Server cause the server to be restarted/reset?
No, it will not cause any downtime, its a feature and you can simply install it and start using it.
You do not need to restart your server at all. Just make sure once you have installed Full-Text Search , it is running (FTS Windows Service).

What server and login must I enter to connect to a SQL Server that was installed together with Visual Studio 2013?

I am just learn C# from Java and now struggling with sql server
i usually use mysql with phpmyadmin
i use windows 7
i already install Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition, in control panel program and feature there is some name with sql server
i try to search the answer in google for 3 days & download many youtube tutorial. but still confuse what to do.
My goal :
i try to create ms sql database like i do in phpmyadmin
i dont want to create local database, i try to create database in server (the server sit in localhost)
heres what i do :
in visual studio 2013 - server explorer tab, i right click in data
connections
then select Create New Sql Server Database
dialog show up and my question :
What value i must put in Server Name
If i select radio button Use SQL Server Authentication. what value i
must put in username and password. (when installing visual
studio, it don't tell me anything)
thank, forgive my english
EDIT :
i already install management studio from here. At installing, it dont tell me any configuration.
Using SSMS i still can't create database, i already try :
via Windows Authentication with servername : 127.0.0.1 or localhost
via SQL Server Authentication with username : sa, password :
[empty], or Password123, or [myComputerPassword]
i already try uninstall & install Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition & SQL Server 2014 Management Studio multiple time in different PC. But it dont tell me any configuration when installing.
based on my newbie feeling : (maybe) it look like installation don't create instance server
here's my control panel look like :
Unless SQL Server was installed with non-default settings, the following connection parameters should allow you to connect to your (locally installed) SQL Server instance:
Password: chances are that SQL Server was installed with SQL Server authentication disabled. Try to log in with the option Integrated Authentication or Integrated Security enabled, then you won't even have the option to enter a username and password.
Server: try these in the following order:
.\SQLEXPRESS (which stands for "instance named SQLEXPRESS on the local host, .")
. (which stands for "(instance with default name on the) local host")
(localdb)
Basically, the server name consists of up to three parts: First, the network host on which the desired SQL Server service is running (the local host or . in your case), the name of the SQL Server service after a \ (often MSSQLSERVER or SQLSERVER, the first of which you can omit because it's the default name), and a network port on which the SQL Server service is listening (you can often omit that, too).
You can find out your SQL Server's service name from Administrative Tools → Services. Locate the entry for the SQL Server service and note down the name in the parentheses; that's what will go after the .\ in the server name:
You usually get a local or express version of Sql Server installed when you install Visual Studio.
You can however..go a little further.
Sql Server Express 2014 (You may already have this installed based on what you chose during the install)
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/dn434042.aspx
Sql Server 2012 Express
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29062
Under the 2012, you'll also note that one of the downloads is
SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe
This is "Sql Server Management Studio". This is a front-end to the Sql Server RDBMS. You could do most things through Visual Studio, but I usually install SSMS as well. SSMS is kinda the same thing as MySql Workbench.
You can also write scripts and execute them in SSMS.
You security mode is probably "Trusted" which means you connect to Sql Server using your windows credentials. This was auto-voodoo'ed mapped for you when you did the install.
Sql Authentication (the alternative to Trusted) is the username/password model. This takes extra setup and configuration (usually through SSMS), so your easiest bet is to rely on "Trusted" unless you find a need for something else.
I hope that helps.

Add SQL Server Express "Advanced" features to LocalDB installed by Visual Studio

I installed VS 2013. It installed SQL Server 2012 Express with LocalDB. That's great, except that I need full-text search, and it didn't install "Advanced Services" (and I didn't see an option during install).
I've downloaded SQL Server 2012 Express w/Advanced Services to add this, but it seems to want to install it on a new instance. Does this sound familiar to you? How did you add SQL Server Advanced Services to your LocalDB installation?
I had the same issue last VS version, and resorted to reinstalling SQL Server then. I apologize for coming to the community with a mundane question, but it vexes me. :)
Here's what I did:
start the SQL Server Express Advanced install
choose to modify an existing instance
check "full-text" under Instance Features / Database Engine Services
find that the installed instances list is empty at the "Instance Configuration" screen, and it wants to install a new instance
Looks like this cannot be done, unfortunately.
LocalDB is cool, but apparently not all-powerful.
Check out this existing post (among others):
Can't create an index catalog in localdb v\11.0
Check at Windows services, the Instance name (found within braces) for the SQL Server service.
Then,
start the SQL Server Express Advanced install
choose to modify an existing instance
check "full-text" under Instance Features / Database Engine Services
find that the installed instances list is empty at the "Instance Configuration" screen, and it wants to install a new instance...
At this point,
Manually type the instance name manually that you found at Windows services. (Instance name Case Sensitive though)
