Questions regarding VS2010 and SQLserver 2008 R2
Hi...:wave:
I got VS2010 & SQL Server 2008 R2. But i have some difficulty installing it.
I'm having Win XP SP2 as OS. But VS2010 needs SP3, I think. And while installing SQL server, it asked for .Net FW 3.5 SP1 & Windows Installer 4.5
So, can you give me the download links, for the above things ?
I don't want the online downloader. Like a small installer app is downloaded and then it will connect to the MS site and downloads the entire contents. I want the setup file as whole, which I can install in offline mode.
Thanks in advance...:wave:

due to the fact that 2010 can Target 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0, you will need all the frameworks installed. although j think you made a typo with 4.5.
Were these not included in the installer you are using?

Thanks Gary...:wave:
VS2010 can't be installed due to the missing of SP3. Where can I get the SP3 ?

For an offline install that will probably be what you want - but the online install (via Windows Update) would be much smaller.
According to the overview of XP SP3: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...5-6BB4F56F5110
...it does not include installer 4.5 or the frameworks, so you will need to get them separately (you can find them via the search bar near the top of the page you linked to)

I got it(the OS) working...:) The installation had crashed my PC and I need to reinstall the OS, which spoiled my several hours...:wave:
Now I have to try installing VS2010 :)
Re: Questions regarding VS2010 and SQLserver 2008 R2
You had to completely re-install the operating system? That seems a bit excessive.
Glad you got it all working though.

Yeah..! While installing, it got crashed at half way. So, had to format the system drive :bigyello:
Now everything is working fine. And installed VS2010 completely. But while installing SQL Server 2008 Express R2, it asked for .Net FW 3.5 SP1. Why it's asking ? Because my PC already has 4.0 !:confused:
...:wave:
Re: Questions regarding VS2010 and SQLserver 2008 R2
Hey,
.Net 4.0 is completely separate from .Net 3.5, they targeting completely different CLR's. The requirement to have Service Pack 1 for .Net 3.5 basically means that you need to have the most up to date version of 3.5, this is either because of some required functionality, or security fix, or something like that.

Previously, I asked about FWs and I got a reply that, the new versions of FW contains all the contents of the previous ones.(from FW 2.0 onwards) !:confused:
Now it's confusing me ...:confused:
Re: Questions regarding VS2010 and SQLserver 2008 R2
When did you ask that? In this thread? I don't remember seeing that part?!?!
What was said was that Visual Studio 2010 can target each of the previous frameworks, i.e. 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0.
Previously, 3.0 built on top of 2.0, and 3.5 built on top of 3.0. They were essentially bolt on's. However, with 4.0 came a re-envisioning of a lot of the core components, and as such, 4.0 is stand alone, it doesn't build on top of 3.5.
However, due to the fact that Visual Studio can target each of the frameworks, you need to have them all installed, at the latest version.
Does that make sense?

Thanks Gary..:wave:
So, each major version is different from the previous one right ? ie. 2,3 & 4 are different ?
If I create an app in FW3.0 then, I should install 3.0 on client side even though it has new version installed (for eg: 4.0 instlled in client's PC) ?
Re: Questions regarding VS2010 and SQLserver 2008 R2
Correct.
If you are targeting a specific framework with your Windows Application, then that framework needs to be installed on the client machine.
In the ASP.Net world it obviously only needs to be installed on the server that is hosting the web site/application, not on each of the client machines.
