Problems with SQL Server 2014 CTP 1 installation - sql-server-2014

I tried to install 2014 version a week ago but ended up with some conflicts. Today I tried to install 2012 instead, but when I ran installation, bootstrap did extract 2012 files but then , for some reason, 2014 installation was started. Is there any way to clear the cache or something?

I removed this folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Setup Bootstrap. It said SQl server 2012 but it was actually 2014 and installation worked this time

Is possible to deployed SSDT 2017/2019 in SQL Server 2014

We are currently working on a project to execute a wide range of data migration tasks and we are thinking on SSIS one of the component of Microsoft SQL Server. Currently, we have SQL Server 2014 Enterprise installed Database and SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT - BI 2014). Also, I found out that there are different version of SSDT - BI (2017, 2019) which is more advance than the previous one. Now, just wondering if possible to create and deploy a package build in the latest SSDT for Visual Studio 2017 or 2019 to SQL Server 2014 version? Sorry, quiet new on this technology. Hope for some advice and recommendation from our SQL Experts here. Thanks in advance for your inputs. Greatly appreciated
You should be able to install VS 2017 or 2019 and target 2014 for your version. My VS 2019 install can target SSIS 2012 and higher.

Upgrading SQL Server 2014 to SQL Server 2016

I have upgraded my SQL Server 2014 to 2016 but still I have 2014 edition
I don't know why, should I uninstall the 2014 version and why I have SQL Server 2014 edition still available after its been upgraded?
Thanks
Your SQL Server 2014 installation is still available, because in SQL Server Installation Center you didn't made an in-place upgrade (which usually isn't a good idea), but you installed a new stand-alone instance:
It is possible two installations (instances) of SQL Server to work on the same server, but if you do not need SQL Server 2014 anymore, you can uninstall it (if you want to).

MySQL server not loading up on Visual Studio 2015

Trying to connect my MySQL server to my Visual Studio 2015 so that I can work with databases within them but I seem to be stuck here:
I don't see an option to install a MySQL server. On checking the MySQL Installer, I see this:
I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Installed on my machine, but still see that error.
What am I missing out on? Do I need to re-install Visual Studio? Is there an alternative for me to get this running?

SSIS package upgrade from 2012 to 2014 issues

I've SSIS packages built in 2012 and now I've migrated those packages into a new Prod system and there Sql Server 2014 installed. The package format version also upgraded from 6 to 8 and executed through SSDT 2014 in VS 2015 and the execution is successful. But when I tried to run through command prompt with batch files, package fails.
I checked the old system the DEXEC.exe was in 110 folder and in the new Prod system the DTEXEC.exe is in folder 120. will it be the cause of failure of jobs.
Please suggest me to get rid of this jobs failure.
you need to download the project from the SSIS repository on the Sql 2012 server, upgrade the project and all packages to 2014, and deploy to the 2014 server. just copying the package will not work.

MySql Workbench installer requires Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Package to be installed, but it already is installed

I've looked everywhere online, but it doesn't look like anyone has been able to resolve this issue.
When I download and try to install MySql Workbench, I get prompted to install Visual C++ Redistributable package (2015) to be installed. The wizard then takes me directly to this website in order to install it.
However, whenever I try to install either, it just tells me they're already installed.
After googling this for about an hour, I found some other people had this problem which apparently was resolved by following the instructions from this website. I downloaded instaedit and followed the instructions, but I continue to get the same error.
I've been at this for two days now and am going to go crazy. If someone can help me with this I'd be very grateful. I'm using Windows 10,
It turns out that VC++ 2017 redistributables are the culprit because they delete the registry keys used by VC++ 2015 redistributables.
See this Microsoft Developer Community page for solution (TL;DR; you have to repair VC++ 2017 redistributables as this will restore missing 2015 registry keys).
This process is as Eric describes:
The steps are essentially: go to Programs in Control Panel (or "Add or Remove Programs" in Windows 10's "Settings"), find the Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable, click it and choose Change/Modify, then choose "Repair
I got it working running latest mysql-workbench.msi from cmd.exe with escalated permissions:
run cmd.exe as Administrator
cd to folder where msi resides
run it
Tried and tested.
I was getting an error: mysql workbench requires the visual c++ 2019 redistributable package to be installed
I visited the link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
Downloaded and installed the file, And boom it was working.
None of the solutions work for me until I install the old version:
mysql-workbench-community-6.3.8-winx64.msi
I tried the solutions posted here, but continued to run into the same errors. Oddly enough, installing an older version of Workbench actually resolved the problem. I wasn't exactly happy about this because I went to school and they showed us the most recent one, but this is the easiest and most direct solution.
If you have Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x64) or (x86), please uninstall them both and run again the MySql Workbench installer.
After the installation is done, install back Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable packages.
Here is the link to download MS V C++ 2017 Redist. :
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
First try to uninstall completely Visual C++ Redistributable package (2015) and install it again. If that does not help please try something else:
Open regedit and try to find key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64
if you see that keys check value Installed=1 (DWORD)
If you found these keys and you got message about not installed c-runtime try to use processmonitor from sysinternals https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/processmonitor and check if you have access to registry.
If you don't have these keys in your registry you can try to create it manually
and see if that helps.
I ran into this same problem and wanted to avoid installing an old version. I got success downloading the 32 bit visual studio version from:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=48145
I suspect it has something to do with the pathing in the installer which only identifies the 32 bit version of the visual studio library.
Uninstall VC Redistributable 2017 x64 x86 from your computer.
Install VC Redistributable 2015 x64 x86 to your computer.
Install MySQL Workbench 8.0 to your computer.
Run MySQL Workbench 8.0 and close it.
Install VC Redistributable 2017 x86 x64 to your computer.
Run MySQL Workbench 8.0
In my environment, I was able to fix this issue by repairing "Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable" both (x64) and (x86). Yes, it sounds funny that the version I repaired was 2017 instead of 2005, but it worked for me. Here's the steps:
Go to Control Panel > Uninstall a program
Highlight Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x64) and/or Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x86)
Click Change button
Click Repair
The installer may prompt you to reboot your machine
Repeat the steps above if both x64 and x86 versions are installed.
After rebooting machine, I was able to install MySQL Workbench.
I had the same experience, it simply needed Administrative rights; launch with admin or launch command prompt as an admin (administrative privileges) and then launch the latest installer (I installed 8.0 successfully this way).
See below image of command prompt (must show "Administrator:" in title) and successful installation from this window
I have been in the same situation and I resolved this problems following the next steps:
Using Windows
Open Control Panel.
Select Install and uninstall programs
Find Visual C++ Redistributable 2015.
Select it, Wait for the dialog box, and choose Repair
Later, reapeat the same step, in (x86) version.
Remember, Apply this only 2015 version.
This has been reported as a bug on the MySQL Bugs site:
https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=91953
other similar bugs 87570, 88000, 88338, 85908,
A common error appears to be not having .NET upto date,
while other possible solutions include:
Downloading mysql for visual studio 1.2.8
Manually create the Key for Visual Studio 2015 (not recommended)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\Setup\VS
WorkRound that worked for me
- stop Visual C++ 2017 dependant programs
- remove Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable
- install Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable
- install 'MySQL Workbench 8.0.12'
- run 'MySQL Workbench 8.0.12' (need to run and close before updating to 2017)
- close 'MySQL Workbench 8.0.12'
- re-install Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable.
The issue here is permissions. When running the MSI, AND if your local policy is set to (prompt for everything), you will encounter this issue because the MSI isn't prompting for credentials to browse the registry to look and see if c++ redistributable is installed.
Solution.
Run the msi as an admin.
how i did that:
download and open the workbench msi in a msi editor, like InstEd. from within InstEd, run the package as an admin.
The best solution to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable Package is by:
1 - Select the Start button > All programs > Windows Update.
2 - In the left pane, select Check for updates.
3 - If any important updates are found, select the link to view available updates. In the list of updates, select Service Pack for Microsoft Windows (KB976932) and then select OK.
4 - Select Install updates. Administrator permission required
You might be asked for an admin password or to confirm your choice.
5 - This is Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 (KB976932) Page Here
My situation: I have installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable (x64) and (x86) but the Mysql installer(8.0) requires a 2015 version.
After I uninstalled the 2017 version to try to install a 2015 one, whatever times I did installing&uninstalling of 2015 version, the installer just could not detect that I have installed the 2015 version. Then I checked the regidit and found out that there was no key and value for the 2015 version.
Solution:
Then I reinstalled the 2017 version with the 2015 version installed in my computer before. It works fine. The Mysql installer is able to detect the Microsoft Visual C++ 2015. And the regidit has the key and value for version 2015 & 2017. What's interesting is it seems that the version of 2017 & 2015 share the same key root in regidit, which is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64.
Thanks for some of the threads which really open my thought.
When I tried to install MySQL Workbench 8.0.12 for my windows 10 pro x64bit (version 1803) I have faced same issue but after few try i find Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable package x86 & x64 for 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 & 2017 already installed but there is no 2015 version which is required by MySQL Workbench 8.0.12. But when i tried to install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2015 it says already installed. To solved it i just uninstalled 2017 and then install 2015 after that reinstall 2017 and then installed MySQL Workbench and everything worked just fine.

An incorrect version of vc_redist.x86 was creating issue in my win 10 machine. Uninstalled this and installed vc_redist.x64. After this the workbench installation got completed successfully.
You just need to update the 2017 C++ Redistributable, because that is causing the issue.
As the Mysql need 2015 C++ Redistributable, but the 2017 one has deleted the registry of 2015.
Just update it.
Go to Control Panel -> Programs -> Programs and Features.
Select Microsoft C++ Redistributable, click on Change.
Then click on Repair.
Close once setup is successful.
After that you need to restart the computer.
(Remember to update both the x86 and x64 if you have two.)
I got installed without restarting.
