Don't see full installation options

  • Hi

    Today I tried to upgrade my local SQL Server 2008 R2 developer edition to SQL Server 2012 Developer edition. The upgrade went smoothly, I can see all the lovely new bits.

    I also wanted to install Master Data Services, and Data Quality Services. DQS was fine, I run the installation media, add features, select DQS server and client - sorted.

    Master Data Services however was not on the list. After looking around on the internet, it transpires that there is a few options on screenshots of other peoples features list which is not on my own. I have checked the ISO i'm using and it's correct. I tried to install a seperate instance to see if it was a hangover of the upgrade but I still don't get the options. It seems weird, but is MDS not available on the developer edition install? I can't find anything that suggests that might be the case but you never know.

    Can anyone help?

  • have ypou tried by passing the boostrap file and running the setup file directly

    Install media folder SQLFULL_x64_ENU\x64\Setup\MASTERDATASERVICESLOC.MSI

    and

    MASTERDATASERVICES.MSI

  • Ahhh figured it out when checking bypassing the bootstrap (thank you for that suggestion). The local dev box is currently running in 32bit, and MDS is 64bit and doesn't exist in the 32bit folder.

    The box is getting flattenned and rebuilt in the next 2 weeks so that's fine, thanks for your help.
