Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express R2
If you do not have any SQL server installation, please download the variant SQL Server 2008 Express R2 that is available free of charge. It is suitable for productive use, but limited to a data volume of 10 GB. If you plan to work with more than 25,000 data objects, we recommend the use of SQL Server 2008 Express R2 with Advanced Services. Due to its full-text index component, this edition offers an accelerated and significantly improved use of research tools.
The installation of SQL Server 2008 Express R2 can be executed in a fully automatic way by entering the following in the command line:
setup.exe /q /ACTION=Install /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLServer /FEATURES=SQL /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
If you have decided to make use of the set-up including Advanced Services, the following should be entered in the command line:
setup.exe /q /ACTION=Install /INSTANCENAME=MSSQLServer /FEATURES=SQL,FullText /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS
The parameter /q executes the installation in the background. If you want to follow the progress of the installation on your screen or make some adjustments, just leave out this parameter.
