Anyone sorted this problem before?

This is usually a problem with your installation of .NET framework. E.g:

Check that your installations are all in working order by using the tools on this site:

You may have to re-install any or all of your .NET framework versions.

Instead of trying several methods that have not been approved, it is better to repair the MSSQL Server installation. On the other hand, there is some other issues that can be encountered during the repair process i.e. Installing the .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 as shown below.
In this case, if you have trouble during .NET Framework installation, you can install it by following the steps below (requires Windows 8, 8.1 or 10) setup disc or ISO file):
1) First you'll need to copy Windows 8 setup files to your hard disk. If you have Windows 8 setup ISO copied in your system, you can mount it by right-click on it and select "Mount" option or you can extract its content using 7-Zip.
If you have Windows 8 setup disc and don't want to copy its content, its ok. Just insert the disc in your CD/DVD drive so that Windows can access its content.
2) Now open Command Prompt as Administrator as mentioned here and then provide following command:
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:F:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Here "F:" represents the CD/DVD drive letter in your system which contains Windows 8 setup disc. Replace it with the correct drive letter according to your system.
If you extracted Windows 8 setup files in a directory, replace F:\sources\sxs with the correct path.
3) As soon as you execute the above mentioned command, Windows will start installing .NET Framework 3.5 in your system and it'll not require Internet connection.
It'll take a few minutes and you'll get a message that the operation completed successfully.
4) That's it. Now you have installed .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 8 without using Internet connection.
For more information have a look at How to Install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Offline in Windows 8 and Later without Internet Connection?. Hope this helps...

Issue packaging a Windows Phone 8 app

I just installed Visual Studio 2013 on my machine (which runs Windows 8.1 Enterprise Build 9600). I checked to include the Windows Phone 8 SDK option during install.
Once complete, I launched VS and tried a new Windows Phone App project.
Created and built fine. However. when I tried to run on the emulator, I get the error:
Xap packaging failed. Cannot access a closed Stream.
... and ...
Could not find file 'c:\users\wade\documents\visual studio 2013\Projects\DataBoundApp1\DataBoundApp1\obj\Debug\XapCacheFile.xml'. Please rebuild the solution and try again.
Tried a clean and rebuild but still occurs. Also happens with the data bound app project.
So, I tried installing some of the SDK updates found here: http://developer.windowsphone.com/en-us/downloadsdk. All installed without a problem; however, when I tried again I got the same error.
Note: the emulator starts and runs just fine. The problem is creating the phone package and deploying to the emulator.
I'm not sure how to fix. Anyone have this issue?
UPDATE:
I have tried reinstalling the Windows Phone 8.0 SDK and all the updates. I should note that I also have VS 2012 installed and I also cannot create a Windows Phone 8 app in VS2012.
Here's an image of the WP8 stuff installed:
I resolved this issue by downloading the full Windows Phone 8.0 SDK ISO and installing (followed by a repair on the two updates).
I wish I could better explain how my machine got into this state. My suspicion is it's because I already had VS2012 installed on the machine and VS got into a confused state.
Total time spent? 4-5 hours.

exception while installing My SQL server for windows 7?

i downloaded the recommend version from Download MySQL Community Server i.e mysql-installer-community-5.6.12.0.msi for windows 7 64 bit os.
Please install the .NET framework 4. Please install the .NET framework
then run this installer.
My question is Should i really install .net 4 framework first to install mysql server? Am i proceeding in right direction
The standard installer includes MySQL Workbench. If you look at its download page, and in the pre-requisites:
To be able to install and run MySQL Workbench 5.2 your System needs to have libraries listed below installed. The listed items are provided as links to the corresponding download pages where you can fetch the necessary files.
Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86)
So, yes.
(There may be other packages that also depend on .NET. Workbench was the obvious one I know of)

"Unauthorized operation" error when installing Express Edition

Microsoft Outlook 2010 with Business Contact Manager worked on my Vista laptop but, laptop died. Now, have Windows 7 Ultimate x64 tower since November. Loaded Office 2010 x86 just fine but, trying to install BCM, failed to install SQL Server Express.
So, now I can't get SQL Server 2008 to install; the Engine, that is, all supporting files install fine. I read that if you can install SQL Server 2008 with the ID=MSSMLBIZ, BCM will pass over the server install, and continue with install. I read that the issue may be SQL Server x86 on Win 7 x64. So, I tried SQL Server x64. Every time I get an Attempted to perform an unauthorized operation.
Install always fails at step SqlBrowserConfigAction_install_ConfigNonRC_Cpu32. So, ran as Admin, from Admin log-in, from the root directory in the Admin log-in, changing permissions on the Security Registry KEY, turned off firewall, all suggestions still failed.
Coincidentally, I have an Update for Windows 7 for x64-based systems (KB2732487) that has failed to install, as well.
I think your Windows 7 is not proper installed, perhaps while installing Windows Updates.
But as for the
SqlBrowserConfigAction_install_ConfigNonRC_Cpu32
I dont understand: ConfigNonRC , in Microsoft terms stands the RC for Release Candidate.
If i was you i should try this:
Open CMD as Admin
Typ: "sfc /scannow"
When that's ready your pc may restart.
Now at CMD typ: "sfc /verifyonly"
If it shows any errors, try "sfc /scannow" again.
If it does not show any errors, try to install Windows Updates. All of them.
If this works, delete all existing SQL apps. And install the Core first.
If the updates can't install, You can try to re-install Windows 7 what i basically should not do and just use MySQL. A lot faster & reliable these days.
I hope this will fix your problems!

Problems with Qt Sql drivers

I have the following strange situation here I need some help with:
I am building a Qt application with MySQL access. For this I have:
- a dedicated building machine, using Qt 2010.05 and a MySQL 5.1 just for the libraries, Windows 7 32 bit. This machine creates the install package.
- a dedicated development machine, CentOS 5.5
- two testing machines:
- - an "always" fresh install of Windows 7
- - another Windows 7 machine with a newer Qt on it used for other stuff too.
I have built the previous version of the application sometime in February this year (on the bilding machine), it works nicely and perfectly, loads the MySQL driver (I have put it in the sqldrivers directory as indicated by everyone else). The install package installs, works everywhere (at least on all my Windows machines).
Now, I have built another release of the application, on the same machine. In the install package the only important difference is the executable (and some HTML files, but those are not relevant). Everything else is the same. When I run the NEW executable on the build machine I get ("QSQLITE", "QMYSQL3", "QMYSQL", "QODBC3", "QODBC") as the QSqlDatabase::drivers() output. If I run the NEW exectuable on any other machine I get an empty list of drivers. If I run the OLD package on any machine it works...
The loaded modules by the two processess (old executable, new executable) are basically the same, except is the qtmysql DLL which gets loaded in the old one and not in the new.
Have you ever encountered a situation like this? If yes do you have a feasible solution for it?
Thanks,
f.
Qt will only load plugins which are compatible with the program or version of Qt used. See the Deploying Plugins document.
You could also try using QPluginLoader to manually load a plugin and check what is reported as the QPluginLoader::errorString when it doesn't load (add the error message to your question if you can't fix it still).

how to run crystal reports in ubuntu linux

I am trying to use the crystal reports application in ubuntu. So far i was able to connect the MYSQL database using c# in .net platform and run a small application in ubuntu over crossover linux.
But when i try to fetch the data from mysql database and display in crystal reports i get an error as shown in the below picture:

This thread is an extension of the below thread.
Can't connect to MySQL for .NET application deployed in Wine using Ubuntu
The WineHQ db claims that it will run. However, if you do intend to target the Linux and Windows platforms, I would suggest a more cross platform compatible library.
I got the answer by my own after doing a small research.
The error was due the licensing problem of visual studio .net 2005. The following packages had to be configured in Merge Reports (i.e C:\Program Files\Common Files\Merge Modules)
Crystal_Managed2003.msm
Crystal_Database_Access2003.msm
Crystal_Database_Access2003_enu.msm
Crystal_regwiz2003.msm
And then we need to enter the license key while deploying the application correctly.
Later the following packages would be installed automatically when we run the deployed .net application in ubuntu linux
