I run the SQL Server 2012 Express SP1 install and it succeeds. After I have rebooted my computer, I do a
select @@version
But still I only have version 11.0.21600.64. I have tried this on two computers now, still the same result.
The file I am running is: SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe
downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35579
sqlcmd -l
at a command prompt, for instance one of dev/test machines shows asABT
,ABT\EXPR
andABT\S2008R2
in that list as it has three instances) and if so how are you connecting? You might have upgraded the default instance only and be connecting to another one (or vice versa). – David Spillett Jul 3 '14 at 8:33
