I have Ms Sql Server Express 2005 currently installed. I need to install the "Sql Server Express with Advanced Services" from Microsoft, found here (in order to enable full-text search feature):
http://www.microsoft.com/betaexperience/pd/SQLEXPCTAV2/enus/default.aspx
Problem is: the "Express with advanced services" component is from 2012, and my Ms Sql Server is from 2005. Are they compatible? Do I risk messing up the Sql Server installation if I run this service?
I'm very short of time and I don't want to mess up my installation and have to reinstall.
Thank you!
Installing Express with Advanced Services will install a new instance of SQL Server. Compatibility won't matter because only the new Express instance will have Full-Text capability and your existing SQL Server 2005 instance won't be able to use it. What you probably want to do is install Full-Text for the instance you already have installed - you can do this through Add/Remove Programs for the existing SQL Server 2005 instance (assuming you still have the install media for SQL Server 2005), which will call up the Installation Center where you can choose to add features to an existing instance.

Planning to install SQL Server Developer edition. Should I remove SQL Server Express that came with Visual Studio before installing it? Can they work together? Is there any reason not to remove SQL Server Express?
Visual Studio installs SQL Express LocalDB, which provides on-demand SQL Instances in the user's desktop session. The SQL Server Data Tools requires this, and it's handy also for other development and test scenarios.
Also there's no reason to remove it.
I have SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 standard edition installed. I access remote to the server where SQL Server is installed. The option of the integration services catalog is missing under the database connection.
I did check the followings
I have the role sysadmin when I log in SQL Server
The service of integration services is installed and running.
The installation of the management studio is complete
I am missing the Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services when I run the Dcomcnfg.exe under Services, Computers, My Computer, and DCOM Config. Weird I am missing this. I wanted to find this to give appropriate permissions, but can't since the node is not there.
Any ideas? Help!
That's because you're using SSMS 2008. The Integration Services Catalog was introduced with SQL Server 2012. The older client doesn't know that's a "thing."
I prefer to manage servers with the latest and greatest version of SSMS which is now a free download.
Microsoft® SQL Server® 2014
Choose "MgmtStudio 32BIT\SQLManagementStudio_x86_ENU.exe"
For clarification
Integration Services Catalog
Integration Services Object Explorer
I had the same problem, Integration Server Catalog is invisible
This is my solution:
Check your installation edition of SQL Server.
How to check? right click on the node of (SQL Server...) on SSMS - click properties - in "general" check the "product" name.
If you still use "SQL Server Developer Edition", some features will not available.
the solution is download SQL Server Enterprise Edition.
I have no idea for Standard Edition, but maybe you can also use Enterprise Edition.
This is link for download : download SQL Server 2014
Click setup.exe to install and choose New SQL Server Stand-alone Installation select the feature you need. I think you can also select Integration Services in Feature Selection.. then fill the instance name and instance ID. continue the installation process until complete.
Open SQL Server Management Studio. Database Engine connection -> Server Name: (Server Name) / (Instance ID)
You will see the Integration Server Catalog. In the picture bellow, you can compare the display between SQL Server Developer Edition (above) & SQL Server Enterprise Edition (bottom with instance name).
I hope it can help..
Final result:
I got same issue and i have installed SSMS 17.0 and now i am able to create the SSISDB catalog with encryption password.
It's working as expected.
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on my Windows 7 Ultimate laptop.
When the installation runs, I am getting the following error :-
A component that you have specified in the ADD_LOCAL property is already installed. To upgrade the existing component, refer to the template.ini and set the UPGRADE property to the name of the component.
I had installed an Express version from the Web Platform installer, but I'm sure I removed that. Also installed were compact editions from a mobile development workshop I did last year. I removed those also.
Currently my Uninstall or change a program list in Control Panel has the following SQL Server related entries :-
Microsoft SQL Server 2005
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Backward Compatibility
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Books Online (English)
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile [ENU] Developer Tools
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor (English)
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Setup Support Files
Microsoft SQL Server Native Client
Microsoft SQL Server Setup Support Files (English)
Microsoft SQL Server VSS Writer
Where do I go from here to get this product installed ?
In the end I followed this article.

After rebooting and running the installation again, and choosing just the client components (the problem part of the install) it is now installing smoothly.
I'm going to rerun the installation in a few moments and install the SQL Engine, Reporting Services, Analysis Services, and the other options such as the sample databases.
Job done; it seems.
I have an application running on mssql 2005 express and I want to install the full text search.
What should I do?
Can I download the full text search service and install it separately.
To use Full Text Search you'll need SQL Server 2005 Express with Advanced Services. If you previously installed Express (standard), then (sadly) it isn't as simple as running the Advanced installer and adding Full-Text Search option to your existing install.
The error I got was:
Reason: Your upgrade is blocked. For
more information about upgrade
support, see the "Version and Edition
Upgrades" and "Hardware and Software
Requirements" topics in SQL Server
2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005
Books Online.
Build version check:
Your upgrade is blocked because the
existing component is a later version
than the version you are trying to
upgrade to. To modify an existing SQL
Server component, go to Add or Remove
Programs in Control Panel, select the
component you would like to modify,
and then click Change/Remove.
There appears to be two solutions:
Backup and detach your existing
databases and uninstall SQL Server
2005 Express. Then install SQL
Server 2005 Express with Advanced
Service (select Full Text Search as
an option). Then re-attach all of
your databases.
Run the Advanced installer and choose
a new instance name. You'll have two
instances of SQL Express running,
but if it is for development
purposes then it shouldn't be a big
problem. This would be the fastest
route to getting up and running with
full-text search.
The following pages might also help:
Upgrading to SQL Server 2005
Express with Advanced Services
SQL Server 2005 Express with the
Full-Text option greyed out
If you are going to choose the first path, then I would choose to install SQL Express 2008 Express with Advanced Services instead.
I'm trying some of the ASP.NET MVC tutorials and one of them has the following steps:
Right-click on the "App_Data" folder, and choose "Add New item"
Choose "SQL Server Database" under the "Data" category.
However, once I do that, I get the following message from Visual Studio:
Connections to SQL Server files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express 2005 to function proprely. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL...
The thing is that I have SQL Server 2008 Developer Edition installed, and I would really rather not install any Express versions (2005 or 2008) if I don't have to. Is there a work-around for this issue?
I ran into this problem too on 64-bit Windows 7 (using 64-bit SQL Server Express 2008).
There are two methods of fixing this problem referenced in the Microsoft Support Knowledge Base article:
1. Workaround
To work around this problem, uninstall
the 64-bit version of SQL Server
Express 2008, and then install the
32-bit version of SQL Server Express
2008.
If you don't want to do the uninstall/install, then try the Hotfix method below.
2. Hotfix
A supported hotfix is now available
from Microsoft. However, it is
intended to correct only the problem
that this article describes. Apply it
only to systems that are experiencing
this specific problem.
Although the article itself doesn't include a link to the hotfix, you can get it here:

To illuminate masfenix's reply, SQL Express supports one feature that is not supported by full-blown SQL Server: a "user instance" database. With SQL Express installed and an mdf file in your App_Data folder, the application will dynamically attach and detach it as needed. For hobbyist or small business sites, this may be perfect. If you're running SQL elsewhere in the enterprise, you probably don't want to go this route and therefore the feature isn't useful to you.
Actually SQL express is a whole different database engine then SQL Server 2005. So yes if you want to use mdf files you'd need SQL Express.
I want to point out that I have both Developer edition and Express edition installed. And I still run into the same error. I think Express edition must be installed as a single instance.
I have the same problem but I've sql 2008 express installed.
any way to make it work with sql 2008 express so I don't have to install the 4th sql instance on my machine??
I already have sql 2005, sql 2008, sql 2008 express
what the F... :)
