MPOS Installer does not detect SQL Express if installed separately

Posted on by Hitesh Manglani 312

Hi All,

I tried installing MPOS on a ACER Iconia W4 device. The MPOS installer could not download and install the SQL Express it gave me an error 

This SQL Server Setup media is not supported on a X86 system.  To continue, run the SQL Server Setup media that matches your system.


So i tried to install SQL Express from the link suggested by the MPOS installer. However later on running the MPOS installer it gave an error that the SQL Express "localhost\SQLExpress" is already installed on machine, verify that you have sysadmin permission on the instance. however the installer is unable to query the SQL Express version. This is either due to the Windows service for the SQL Express not running or user running the installer does not have permission on the SQL Instance.

Am unable to get past this error.

Any Ideas?

Hitesh

    What SQL version have you installed? I was reviewing the requirements for MPOS offline db and looks like you should not have any issues with SQL Express www.microsoft.com/.../confirmation.aspx.

    Also, I noticed your device runs a Windows 8.1. I presume you are using an account that is in the Local Administrators Windows group.

    SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services 32 Bit, yes as you have pointed out i have no issues installing the SQL Express, the issue is that MPOS installer is not able to query it for some reason.
