What am I missing? I tried re-installing SQL Server 2008 R2 already. Any other ideas?
It seems to me that you have an issues with .NET framework version. AFAIK, SQL Server 2008 needs .NET 2 and I'm not sure how is it working on your machine with .NET 4.0.3.
You can try to execute following query:
select * from sys.dm_clr_properties
and see which version you are using in SQL Server. For more details read here
I am trying to install SQL Server 2008 R2 Express with the SQL Server Management Studio.
However, the Management Tools feature does not seem to be selectable. The screen-shot below shows which Features are available for me to select:
I have made sure that the SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Objects was installed!
I have tried both answered methods at Can't install SQL Server 2008 R2 management tool (complete) and they both do not seem to work for me, I still do not see Management Tools. Upgrading the Edition under the Maintenance section and Uninstalling/Re-installing the SQL Server had no additional effects. The files I am trying to work with to get this to work are:
SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe - This is Service Pack 3
SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe - The file name fooled me, since there is no management studio feature selection!
The question is, why does Microsoft makes it so difficult?
I am using a Windows 7, 64-bit machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You should separately download Microsoft® SQL Server® 2008 Management Studio Express from Microsoft at
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7593
SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe contains everything and is the best choice for new installs.
I am facing issues while installing 'Sql Server 2008 R2 developer' edition. My OS is windows 8. I am getting the error
"This program has compatability issues. Microsoft Sql Server 2008 and 2008 R2". I went through the solutions online for this issue.I installed 'VS 2010'. I enabled 'dotnet framework 3.5' which is under 'Turn windows features on or off' in programs menu of control panel. I installed 'Sql Server 2008 SP3' before installing 'Sql Server 2008 R2'. But same issue arised. Then I uninstalled 'Sql Server 2008 SP3' and installed 'Sql Server 2008 R2 SP2' before installing 'Sql Server 2008 R2'. But there is no use. My windows updates are up to date. I am strggling with this issue for 3 days. I need your suggestions.
How do I upgrade my SQL Server 2008 Express with Advanced Services to SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise edition?
Please do let me know.
Thanks,

click on the installer, and on one of the tabs, there is an edition upgrade option.
Wonder if SQL Server 2008 R2 Express edition can be used with C# Express 2010? I'm getting the error below when trying to add 'Service-based Database' item to my projects.
Please note, I've only got SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.
Update 1 - I checked the service (MSSQLSERVER) and it's up and running, I've got no errors during SQL Server 2008 R2 installation either, the PC didn't have any previous versions of SQL Server installed.
The actual error:
Connections to SQL Server database files (.mdf) require SQL Server
2005 Express or SQL Server 2008 Express to be installed and running on
the local computer. The current version of SQL Server Express can be
downloaded at the following URL:

Thanks.
As the message says, Visual C# Express 2010 does not support connections to SQL Server 2008 R2 Express (which is not an upgrade to SQL Server 2008 Express). You could give Visual Studio 2012 a try.
EDIT: It seems like my above statement is not correct. I've tested it and I got SQL Server 2008 R2 Express working with Visual Studio 2010 Premium. So I guess it should also work in Visual C# Express 2010.
In order for it to work I had to change 'SQL Server Instance Name' found in the options under 'Database Tools' --> 'Data Connections'. The default value is SQLEXPRESS but I changed my instance name to SQLEXPRESS2008R2 during installation.
