Hello,
I have installed an SQL Server 2016 RC 2Developer Edition, but now I get the following error when trying to start the service:
2016-10-14 01:34:31.84 Server SQL Server evaluation period has expired.
Now I have checked in the installer that I definately chose the Developer edition, so basically this should not happen. Is this a known issue and is there a way of fixing that? I tried running an "Upgrade edition" to Developer again, but this didn't work.
I also have a 2008 Express installation running which I need for a specific program, but that shouldn't really matter.
For those who wish to see the whole error log, here it is:
