Tags:

installation

Hope someone can help me here . I have no further information other than that at a later stage in setup the whole process hangs showing install_confignonrc_cpu64
I am unable to cancel out of it even , the only way was to kill it . Is there any solution for that ?

How do I fix SQL Server 2016 installation failed?

Launch the SQL Server Setup program (setup.exe) from SQL Server installation media. After prerequisites and system verification, the Setup program will display the SQL Server Installation Center page. Click Maintenance in the left-hand navigation area, and then click Repair to start the repair operation.

Why SQL Server is not installing?

Make sure the machine is of the required spec to run the version of SQL you are installing. I.e. if it is SQL EE then make sure you have NT EE. For SQL 7 you need a 100% PENTIUM compatible chip or an Alpha - older Cyrix/IBM chips that do not support the full pentium instruction set will not work.

My problem was that the installer tries to download Microsoft R Open , if you have a slow connection you will see the installation freeze for a very long time without any progress bar updates or so . I fixed the problem by deselecting all R components since i dont need them then the installation went smooth .

just had the same problem which is why I found this question. Fixed the problem by closing the original media install menu window (where I'd selected "New SQL Server standalone" which is the first option). The install window then carried on.

Just leave it "Stuck" - it is doing a Download in the background, I left the PC for a couple hours while doing some errands, and then..boom- All set.
