Hi,
Strange issue, but I'll try to lay it out as clearly as possible.
If we apply CU #2 or #3 on a licensed SQL 2014 Entr. installation, we can't get MDS working. We receive the "The current SQL Server edition is not supported by MDS" error.
If we do the same, but use the downloaded trial isntaller from the Microsoft site as base for our installation, everything works fine.
If we again use that trial install software, but instead of choosing trial, we enter our product key from above, again MDS results in the beforementioned error.
So to wrap up:
- Install SQL 2014 with licensed software + CU #2 or #3 --> MSD won't work (The current SQL Server edition is not supported by MDS)
- Install SQL 2014 with a downloaded trial installer + apply CU#2 or #3 --> MDS works
- Install SQL 2014 with a downloaded trial installer, BUT enter our Product Key + apply CU#2 or #3 --> MSD won't work (The current SQL Server edition is not supported by MDS)
Why do we need CU #3? Our MDS database will reside on another server with a named instance. Apparently #CU 3 is needed if we want this setup to work.
But what startles me the most is the fact that I have no problem at all when installing SQL 2014 as a trial, but everything breaks if I install SQL 2014 with a Product Key.
Regards
Tony
