Hi,
I have a SQL server standard edition 2014 which was installed years back, i am going to uninstall and install it again due to some reason, i wanted to make sure while i will install it whether i need to have license key which i do not have since i recently joined to this organization, i asked windows team to provide license keys and they replied its a core based product and it does not require license key to install, earlier they said its a server + CAL license but now saying its core based.
my query is, if it is core based license and taken for without software assurance, and if i install it again by dowloading sql sererv 2014 installation setup will it require license key?
another question is how can i make sure what kind of license is it?

Not sure if I chose the right category and forum but here is my issue.
Security Update for SQL Server 2017 RTM GDR (KB4505224) - Error 0x80070643
The above is my main issue
I have troubleshooted this for two hours running windows update troubleshooter which said it fixed 3 issues and then I tried the update again and it still failed.
I tried to download the update from the microsoft windows update catalog via internet.
I tried to download a FixMissing MSI .zip file from git hub.
The below error is what I get when I ran the install application file for the KB 4505224
I have saved the error message but this site won't let me add the picture because of Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account.
What is the best way to work around this error or fix this issue?
I thought of deleting the software distribution or backing it up and renaming it. It did not allow me to do this.
Thank you for any information you can provide
Hi,
I set up a new cluster the other day, after doing two others successfully. This particular cluster on windows 2012 R2 is a SQL 2014 installation that has been patched to SP2 CU10. The cluster also hosts 9 other instances and a file share we use for backups for all the instances.
It will not come online and has the error - "Could not find any IP address that this SQL Server instance depends upon. Make sure that the cluster service is running, that the dependency relationship between SQL Server and Network Name resources is correct, and that the IP addresses on which this SQL Server instance depends are available."
I verified that dependencies were set up like the other clustered instance on this cluster, took the IP & Network name offline and then tried to ping it - no response. I put the IP/NetName online and was able to ping it. I changed the IP to a new IP provided by my network team and also known to be available. I have read through several similar threads here that mention validating registry entries and looked at those entries. I've tried bringing it up on both nodes. The same error has occurred after all these steps.
System Log:
The SQL Server (INST10) service terminated with the following service-specific error:
Access is denied.

Hi there,
is this something related to the SSMS 18.0 edition installation?
I was using the CTP 5.0 for SSMS 18.0 and yesterday I installed 18.3.1
Thanks for your comments
Hello There,
When I sun this simple command
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'BCP PDF13.dbo.TextFileRaw out D:\projects\dddd.txt -E -T -c'
I get this error message
output
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Warning: Ignoring 'E' flag when copying out. Password: CTLIB Message: - L1/O1/S1/N138/1/0: : user api layer: external error:
A data length of 255 exceeds the maximum length allowed for password data. Setting connection properties failed. NULL (6 rows affected)
Looks like I have Installed a set of Sybase drivers and it changed the environment variable to point to Sybase's BCP and not SQL Server's BCP. -Came to know after some research but were to change the Environment variable back to point to SQL Server, I am not sure
Please advice
Thanks

I'm getting the above error when trying to install a new instance of SQL Server 2017 developer edition. I've read that this can be caused by the installation trying to install an earlier version of the c++ distributable when visual studio 2017 is installed. So I've tried uninstalling visual studio, repairing then uninstalling the visual C++ redistributable (both) and running the installation under the windows administrator account, but not getting any luck. Are there any other ideas on what might work?
Hello,
My Company has bought license for SQL 2017 standard version but it turned out it is not compatible with some stuff, we need to downgrade to 2012. Is there a way to install 2012 Standard Edition? I can see only Express and Evaluation version available.
Thanks in advance!
I have problem installing sql svr 2014 express on win server 2008 r2 64 bits
error:
Windows Installer error message: An error occurred during the installation of assembly 'Microsoft.VC80.ATL,version="8.0.50727.6229",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",processorArchitecture="x86",type="win32"'. Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x8007054F.
I'm in the process of documenting SQL Product keys for SQL installed. The people who installed it either has left the company, didn't track, or lost it/delete it.
I tried/review several methods
Installed developer edition of SQL server on Linux. When choosing edition, option 1 is "Evaluation (free, no production use rights, 180-day limit)" and option 2 is "Developer (free, no production use rights)" (there are 6 more options which don't matter here). I chose 2, but at the end of installation got the following message:
"This is an evaluation version. There are [105] days left in the evaluation period"
I wonder why? Given that the only option that mention limits is #1 I wasn't expecting this. And I don't remember running into this issue ever before with the developer edition on Windows.
I have recently setup dev, qa, prod DataHub sql instances using 2019 rc1 developer edition in anticipation of the GA release, which occurred today Nov. 4
My PID is correct and the License Terms explicitly state MICROSOFT SQL SERVER 2019 ENTERPRISE CORE
The wizard completes successfully but SELECT @@VERSION still shows
Microsoft SQL Server 2019 (RC1) - 15.0.1900.25 (X64) Aug 16 2019 14:20:53 Copyright (C) 2019 Microsoft Corporation Developer Edition (64-bit) on Windows Server 2019 Standard 10.0 <X64> (Build 17763: ) (Hypervisor)
Is it not possible to do an edition upgrade from the release candidate to the ga?
Any insight would be helpful. Really hoping to not have to rebuild.
Hello,
We would like to go from SQL Server version 2012 to 2017, but need to know , how big the impact is.
Like the applications build with Visual Studio...which code will fail.
So, I need a nice document that simply shows which objects will be lost or are changed.
Is there such a document ? Or can I make one myself ?
Greetings,
Rob
Hello,
I am trying to install SQL Server 2019 on my laptop. We have multiple versions of SQL Server on the laptops due to clients having different versions of SQL Server that we are working with. I am trying to just install the Database Engine Services and it fails to install. The log is very vague as to what failed, and how we can go about fixing it so that SQL Server 2019 will install along side other versions of SQL Server.
Here is the output of the log:

Since SQL 2019 Standard now has TDE built in, what are the gotchas if any with migrating from 2012 Enterprise to 2019 Standard. I had planned to install a new instance of SQL and after scripting out the users and service accounts detach the DB's from 2012 and attach to 2019.
Are there gotcha's that I need to be aware of or should this upgrade go as smooth as it seems?
Thanks!
I have sql2k16, SP2, CU10. Default instance and 1 named instance. SQLAgent runs fine with the default instance but never can start in the named instance.
