I'm attempting to install SQL Server Express 2012 w/ SP1 x64 on Windows 7 SP1 x64. This machine has previously had SQL Server Express 2012 installed. This instance was upgraded to SQL Server 2012 Standard, which has since been uninstalled.
Following are the options selected during the install:
Include SQL Server product updates in install -- 2 related to KB 2793634
Install all features to default directories
Named instance SQLEXPRESS in default instance root directory
Default services accounts: SQL Server Database Engine -> NT Service\MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS
Default Database Engine Configuration
The install fails with following error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 Setup
The following error has occurred:
Could not find the Database Engine startup handle.
------------------------------ BUTTONS:
OK
I've read that this may be related to a corrupt MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS virtual account.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks,
Jon.
