Hi,I just installed VS 2010 copy I got from college, I know that it comes with SQL Server Express and saw it in Services, then I tried to install stand alone SQLS Mgngt Studio but looks like it coming already with SQLServer and could not do this, have an error.THen I unintslled SQLServer, and install SQLS MS which comes I think with SQLServer already. But on the course of installation I didn't have a place to enter instance of db, so now I have empty configuration manager ? I thought shoud be at least default NS bu nothting ..!!!Can aynbody help me how to make it work? i.e. to have SQL MS on SQLServer this is my priority, VS can wait.Can I add db instance somehow? somewhere?Thansk for helpDai |

SQL Server and SQL Server Express can be installed on the same machine.If instance already exists(in your case SQL Express) you can install another instance of SQL Server.SQL Server allow only one Default Instance installed on any machine,but multiple Named Instance can be.By default SQL Express installed as Named Instance,that is mean the later installation of SQL would be Default Instance automatically(unless you specify to be Named Intance at installation time)SSMS and SSMS Express can also on the same machine.SSMS its independent to SQL Server. You can install SSMS with or without SQL Server installed on machine.So your installation of SSMS does not mean it includes SQL Server Service.It up to your selection while installing.Another case I usually found during installation of SQL Service,we can not install SQL Service if existing of others SQL Component on the same instance name remain intact on serverSQL Component includes Reporting Service, Analysis Service etc.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Komkrit YensirikulWelcome for all questions.

Thanks Komkrit,I jsut found that it's not about VS, I uninstalled VS, then tried to install SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe (180,712K) and still could not see any "instance screen" to create an instance. This file file has sqlServer + SSMS, I'm totaly lost, I did reboot after each uninstall as well.Now I doint all clean up and then try again, I think recently MS did some chagnes in their file, none of tutorial works for me. I'm on W7 64,can anaybody point me to corrent file. I need SQL Server Express + SSMS,there is clean SQLSExpress SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe (106,796K). If I ran it and then run SSMS (see above) I have a conflict as SQLS already installed. Totally lost$%^&*.I just need SQLServer (Epxress b'cuz it's free + SSMS express) envirionemnt.Tx to allBestDai |

Tx, KomkritSorry, problem solved, I used first file in your list, but after cleaning a log of SQL* stuff from program and Features, left I assume after VS 2010. Now it works fine, I had a place to define all my instances.Now I'm preparing to put back VS2010, researching now to do it better. Looking at your post I see that I can have 2 intances, but I'll try to go with one.Tx again to all for helpDai |
