Business One Server Cant Detect Server Type

Former Member

I was wondering if somebody could point this out to a novice, but Im having trouble installing SAP Business One Server on my local machine.

I already have Microsoft SQL 2012 installed and running on my machine. After having installed the Server Tools, I then try to run the Server installation. I get as far as the "Select Server type" window, but the drop down box is empty. I understand that the installation was supposed to detect SQL 2012.

Any suggestions?

Have you seen the following thread on SCN?

Sorry, I must have missed that during my initial search.

So it's most likely a compatibility issue with my 8.81 and SQL 2012.

Funny, I was told specifically to install 2012. Thank you for shedding some light on the matter.

Not a problem, I don't have a Business One Server to validate that information.

Another great spot to verify things with SAP software is their PAM:  http://service.sap.com/pam

SQL 2012 may be possible for you, it may be something as simple as the jdbc driver being updated; or it could be an update to something like 8.9.
