Sql Server 2012 Express says that "Property MasterDBPath is not available...".
I guess this is why I can't restore backups among other problems.
The message is:
This is the first time I get this message, and I have installed the software in several of my machines successfully.
What could I do to solve it?
Install SQL Server 2012 SP1 and see if that fixes it. See https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/726826/management-studio-exception-for-localdb-instance

please any solution ...
Your question doesn't have a lot of details. Such as how are you trying to connect currently? In the absence of that, I offer this...

Perhaps you can find what you need there.

I recently started developing ASP.NET windows application and web sites using Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2008 R2.
Visual Studio 2010 seems to work fine but I got problem starting SQL Server 2008 R2.
When I open SQL Server Management Studio, the "Connect to Server" window opens and ask me Server Name. Authentication type is "Windows Authentication".
I googled it too much but still cant find suitable server name.
My default instance is SQLEXPRESS (I found it in SQL Server Configuration Manager).
I tried ., (local), 127.0.0.1, localhost, my machine name (i.e. MYName-PC/MyName) but I get error that cannot connect to (local) and so on...
When I conncect first time with (local) I got successful connection.
But from next day the error again occured.
When I use server name as ./SQLEXPRESS I got error that
The RPC server is not available
I tried using turn my firewall off still no success.
I am very frustrated at this moment because I am not able to find suitable server name.
Thank you for reading my post.
Hope someone will help me.
Thanks.
I have been using this connection string with no problem on a number of databases and MS operating systems. Windows Server 2003, 2008 R2 and 2012 R2 Eval, all Express versions.
I am now trying to deploy to a new Windows Server 2012 R2 installation and I am getting some errors. I have the SQL Server 2008 R2 installation on the Windows Server 2012 R2 machine.
My con string:
connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\myDB.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=False" ProviderName="System.Data.SqlClient"
I think this must have something to do with the installation sequence of the components on the new server.
I have in the past been able to simply copy myDB.mdf to basically any web server and open or access the DB tables. This DB includes an ASP membership for the web site that it is tied to.
Here is the error:
CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'. An attempt to
attach an auto-named database for file
C:\inetpub\techTran\App_Data\myDB.mdf failed. A database with
the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is
located on UNC share.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: CREATE
DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'.
I thought I understood what this error was. I have checked permissions and they match the other servers where this database has been deployed. My SQL Server installations are basically all the same. The only difference here is that this is Windows Server 2012 R2 on a VM. Or I did not install the SQL Server 2008 R2 the same way I have done in the past 5 servers I have set up. (Which I am guessing is probably the case.)
UPDATE: Uninstalled and reinstalled SQL Server and SSMS.
I know there is only one database name on the server called myDB.mdf, so I don't believe the "same name" portion of error. I have added security to the db so that it can be opened and I even installed Visual Studio 2012 on the server to be certain that the db could be opened. I can run the full app on the localhost (server 2012) but I can not access it over a web connection.
I believe the specific error message relating to
CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master'
is the issue.
I have never seen this error before.
I typically assign NETWORK SERVICE account to the database to allow access and this is how this one is set up as well. I also thought this might be a connection string issue. But this same string has worked on 4 different servers now with no changes. Server 2003, 2008 R2, and 2012 (demo platform)(all Express versions), now in production this is failing.
The home page loads and then the login throws the above error.
Your connection string says AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\myDB.mdf. Well, your path must have changed in one place (SQL Server) and not the other (app configuration). AttachDbFilename will try to create a new DB if it can't find that file. That's probably your error.
As an aside, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Server 2012 R2 all have differences, especially with security and in particular with how SQL Server behaves, but you keep using them interchangeably. That makes it very confusing to tell what's going on. Also, your connection string says Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS. Is this SQL Server Express? Because that has important differences with most other editions of SQL Server, too. More recent editions are very similar to Standard edition, but the older the edition, the more quirks it has. They're generally considered different beasts.
SOLVED: I am not sure how this happened or perhaps why it didn't happen. But for some reason the installation of SQL did not add the NETWORK SERVICE account to the sysadmin Server Role. I cross referenced this with the SERVER 2003 installation where SQL 2008 R2 is also running, and discovered that the sysadmin SQL Server Role included NETWORK SERVICE in my correctly functioning environment. So once I added the user account to this role, everything came up fine.
I believe this might have been an issue during the installation of SQL 2008 R2. I did specify NETWORK SERVICE, but for some reason it was not provided the role.
Does Anyone knows the solution to this problem m not being able to run the SQL Server Services.
Solution: Install SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2, restart, open SQL Server Configuration Manager and ALL is good.

No need to re-install or update your SQL Server 2008 R2 instance. I got the same error and it get resolved by simply starting the MSSQLSERVER standard service.
How to start this service:
Open Administrative Tasks > Services > Select Standard services tab > start SQL Server Agent(MSSQLSERVER) service and you are good to go.
With all due respect, "Right click on configuration manager and run as administrator" is a bogus answer. I also have this problem with the following series of events: I download the Windows Azure SDK from here: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/downloads/, which installs SQL 2012 express; immediate I try to run SQL Server Configuration Manager, and the installation of SQL 2012 has broken it such that I get the "remote procedure call failed". That is true even if I "run as administrator". Microsoft says they can't reproduce this, but I've contacted them again because I've now reproduced this twice. And, if there's any doubt: un-installing SQL 2012 causes the problem to go away, and the configuration manager works again. I blogged about it here: http://dbarrowstechblog.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-remote-procedure-call-failed.html ; haven't solved it yet.
This error occurs only after I have installed the Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 setup in my work machine.
Since it is being a WMI error, I recompiled the MOF file –> mofcomp.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Shared\sqlmgmproviderxpsp2up.mof"
I also un-registered and re-registered the sql provider DLL –> regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Shared\sqlmgmprovider.dll" but issue not resolved.
Solution:
I have applied SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 on my SQL 2008 R2 instance and that fixed the issue with Sql Server Configuration Manager. You can download setup from here... http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30437 .
Ok, Stop this.
Is this a new Installation?
Open SSMS in Integrated security Mode
Right click on server name in Object explorer tree at the left
Select properties -> Then choose the "Security" page at left
Under Server Authentication, select "SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode"
Click OK
Exit SSMS completely
Open "SQL Server Configuration Manager" (in Configuration menu under the "Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2" menu item from start menu
Select you instance on SQLExpress and restart the instance of the server (but this is ok for non express too)
Exit SSCM - and to verify open SSMS again, but with "SQL Server Authentication" selected in the Authentication type dropdown - put in your SQL user ID and password.
installing the SP3 on SQL server 2008 worked for me..so give it try
Thanks!! dont forget to vote up if this helps you
I want to un-install completely SQL Server 2008 R2 from my 64bit system. When I tried to install, I experienced a common problem about "INSTALLSHAREDWOWDIR" but I managed to install anyway. Now, I can't un-install.
I even tried cmd but when action is uninstall, it doesn't accept INSTALLSHAREDWOVDIR command.
Here is the error I got;
The INSTALLSHAREDWOWDIR command line value is not valid. Please ensure
the specified path is valid and
different than the INSTALLSHAREDDIR
path.
Note that, this error is NOT for installation, it's for removal of SQL.
