I am looking to run Systems Center Operations Manager 2007 to have a play with and thought I’d set myself a challenge of getting it up and running on a SQL 2008/2008 Server platform.
Obviously one of the pre-requites of Systems Center Operations Manager 2007 is SQL so I am using SQL 2008. This post will look at the installation of SQL 2008 onto a Windows 2008 Server platform
So I’ve downloaded Microsoft SQL Server 2008 RC0 from Microsoft. I pop the DVD in and here’s what I get:
It is telling me that I need .NET Framework. If you click on OK it proceeds to download and install .NET v3.5 SP1 Framework for you automatically
Oh hello! What’s this error? Closer look at the log files shows us this:

The server I am installing it on doesn’t have any version of .NET Framework installed so I am guessing that .NET Framework v3.5 beta requires v2.0 SP1 to be installed beforehand. So I went ahead and installed .NET Framework v3.5 which is he latest release.
After installing .NET Framework v3.5 the installation of .Net Framework v3.5 SP1 (Beta) installed successfully
