I am trying to add Reporting Services – SharePoint feature to my computer sql server installation.
I am currently using Sql Server 2012 Enterprise on a 32 bit computer
Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.2100.60 (Intel X86)
Feb 10 2012 19:13:17
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation
Enterprise Edition on Windows NT 6.1 <X86> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1)
Unfortunately, in Shared features I don't have the Reporting Services items mentioned in this article:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219068.aspx
Could it be because I don't have Sharepoint installed on my computer?
Or maybe, because my computer is 32 bit?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
I think you have 64 bit computer Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products says
computer must meet the following software requirements
The add-in is 64-bit only, which is a requirement of SharePoint 2010
products and technologies.
In this article you can check Report Server Database Requirements
If you want to install Reporting Services and a SharePoint product instance on the same computer, you can run SQL Server Express and another edition of
SQL Server side-by-side on the same computer or you can use the same instance of the Database Engine for the SharePoint configuration and content databases
if you choose the Advanced installation option when installing a
SharePoint product . If you choose the Basic installation option instead,
the SharePoint Setup program will install SQL Server Embedded Edition
as an internal component and use that instance to host the SharePoint databases.

I have an old server with SQL Server 2016 installed which also has Visual Studio 2015 installed so I can use SQL Server Data Tools to build cubes & reports.
I need to reinstall / update this content on a new server, but am confused about Visual Studio licensing. Unfortunately the person who set up the server initially is no longer available.
Do I now need to pay for a monthly/annual Visual Studio Professional license to install it for just this purpose?
I cannot find any details on the license on the old server, it just says 'Licensed'.
You can use the free Visual Studio Community Edition. This is explicitly called out in the license:
iv. Any number of your users may use the software only for Microsoft SQL Server development when using the SQL Server Data Tools or the extensions “Microsoft Analysis Services Projects”, “Microsoft Reporting Services Projects”, or “SQL Server Integration Services Projects” to develop Microsoft SQL Server database projects or Analysis Services, Reporting Services, Power BI Report Server, or Integration Services projects.

I'm trying to move to a new hosting provider and I'm having real difficulty getting my web site to run. It uses Hangfire on application startup to run some background jobs, whilst also serving web pages on the main thread.
The website seems to work for the very first page load and then subsequent accesses fail to run a reasonably complex Entity Framework search query.
Here's the server's configuration on the existing machine, via SQL Server's select ##version command:
Microsoft SQL Server 2017 (RTM-GDR) (KB4583456) - 14.0.2037.2 (X64) Nov 2 2020 19:19:59 Copyright (C) 2017 Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows Server 2016 Standard 10.0 <X64> (Build 14393: )
Shared operating system (not sure what this is)
SQL Server 2017 - Standard Edition
.NET Framework 4.8
Hangfire using SQL Server storage, with table's using the Hangfire schema
Other application tables, with tables using the dbo schema
Here's the server's configuration on the new machine, via SQL Server's select ##version command:
Microsoft SQL Server 2019 (RTM) - 15.0.2000.5 (X64) Sep 24 2019 13:48:23 Copyright (C) 2019 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition (64-bit) on Windows Server 2019 Standard 10.0 <X64> (Build 17763: ) (Hypervisor)
Windows Server 2019
SQL Server 2019 - Express edition
.NET Framework 4.7,. (according to Plesk, although I've installed 4.8)
On the new server I have full RDP access, so can install whatever software I like on this machine. However, SQL Server Standard edition is extremely expensive for a little website like mine.
Is there something that is preventing the Entity Framework query running on the new Windows Server 2019 machine, with SQL Server Express? Does that combination not allow multiple schemas for the database, or is there some other restriction from this combination that I might not be aware of?
Running the website with SQL Server Express on my local Windows 10 machine runs fine.
I'd really appreciate any help with this, as I'm pulling what little hair I have left out of my head!
Thanks for trying to help, but in the end the problem was a lot simpler than I'd anticipated. I thought this was a permissions issue, but actually it's just a simple performance issue.
Running SQL Express on the new server failed because the machine didn't have enough RAM. It only had 4GB of RAM, and with Plesk and other software installed by the hosting provider, the free RAM was down to just a few hundred MBs.
Some simple queries that would take milliseconds to return on the old server could take over 2 minutes to return on the RAM limited new server.
Increasing the RAM to 8GBs fixed most of the issue, although using SQL Express is still significantly slower than the SQL Standard edition on the old server, and SQL Standard is alarmingly expensive to run just for this one website (the old server has a shared SQL Standard edition installation).
I'm running this version of SQL Server on an Azure instance:
Microsoft SQL Server 2017 (RTM) - 14.0.1000.169 (X64) Aug 22 2017 17:04:49
Copyright (C) 2017 Microsoft Corporation
Web Edition (64-bit) on Windows Server 2016 Datacenter 10.0 <X64> (Build 14393: ) (Hypervisor)
Per the description for the instance ('SQL Server 2017 Web on Windows Server 2016'):
This image contains the Web edition of SQL Server 2017 on Windows Server 2016. This provides a low-cost database solution for medium-size web applications. It includes the core database engine and Management Studio for integrated administration and development. Also includes basic versions of Reporting Services for web reports, Integration Services for moving and transforming data, and Analysis Services for data mining. We recommend that you use a virtual machine size of DS12 or higher.
When I attempt to connect / configure using the 'Report Services Configuration Manager', I'm unable to 'find' the Report server instance in the 'Reporting Services Configuration Connection' dialog. I.e. the 'Report Server Instance' had not values to choose from.
I installed Microsoft SQL Server 2017 Reporting Services (note three editions were available - Eval, Developer, & Express - tried each edition - uninstalling each version before trying the next)
When I went to configure the Reporting Services using the 'Report Server Configuration Manager' I got to the 'Change Database' tab. At the point that I am assigning the database engine to the reporting services I get the error:
The database engine instance you selected is not valid for this edition of report server
Note I'm running the Web edition of SQL Server, but I'm not seeing an option to select that in the installation of the report services
Thoughts re what I'm missing?
I Ended up reverting back to SQL 2016 to go around the issue
I have been having a similar issue. I tried to get the SQL Server key from a PowerShell script as well, but they didn't work for SQL Server 2017 Web Edition.
So the solution was much easier than I expected.
Go to the C: drive of your VM. You will find SQL Setup there.
Run the setup to start a new standalone installation. When you will be on product key page it will display the License Key.
Copy that key and put it into your Reporting Services Installation.
I hope it will help someone.
The error is basically saying you cannot use the edition of your SQL Server Engine (in this case, Web edition) for SQL Server Reporting Services 2017. Can you try a different edition of SQL Server?
Update:
You can learn more about supported editions of Database Engine you can use for each different type of edition of Reporting Services 2017 at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/reporting-services-features-supported-by-the-editions-of-sql-server-2016. While some of the content may not be applicable for SSRS 2017, the bits which are applicable are still accurate.
I have to install SharePoint foundation 2010 with SQL server 2012 Standard Version on Windows server 2012
What I have flow the steps:
Installed Windows server 2012
Installed SQL server 2012 Standard Version
Installed SharePoint Foundation 2010(SP1)
But Issue is that SharePoint not picking the right SQL server 2012 Standard Version instance,it always uses the SQL server express instance that is comes with SharePoint SP1 .exe file.
I have tried this activity for 3- 4 times by removing SharePoint and SQL and Repair as well but always all the configuration databases are generated in the SQL express instance.
Did anyone having suggestions or solution will be appreciated.
Thanks
Your problem is that you are choosing Standalone installation and this option will always install SharePoint Data Bases in SQL Express.
When installing SharePoint you must choose Server Farm installation (even if SP and SQL are on the same server) at the second screen after accepting licence terms, some screens later you will be able to choose the SQL instance.
Here are some guides that may help you, however I recommend you to search more information:

I am thinking to join MS Action pack subscription.
Does anyone have a list of the exact software I can use?
I am very interested in MSSQL 2012/2014 as I have a dual quad core machine (8 cores) and wanted to know if I can run MSSQL 2012 or 2014 on it with my Action Pack License.
Shame Microsoft can't make this information easily discoverable on their website. Here is a link which I eventually found with Google, which will probably break within 2 months, because that's how Microsoft roll....
