Hello all.
Installing on a VM with Windows 2012 R2 build 9600.
Just trying to install the database engine:
What I've tried:
Exploded the ISO to a local drive.
copied setup.rll to the program files....resource\1033
gave Everyone group full access to users\administrator\appdata folder, windows\temp folder, program files folder, etc.
downloaded trial version of SQL 2014 SP2, same error.
Uninstalled, reinstalled.
Uninstalled 3.5 .NET, reinstalled
Uninstalled Visual C++ redistribution files and reinstalled.
ANY HELP would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
