SQL server for EPDM 2012

Krishna Kamath Jan 28, 2012 9:30 AM

I have a few questions about SQL server.

1. Is SQL server 2008 included with EPDM 2012 DVD (server install) ? IF yes then which edition of SQL server (express, standard...)?

2. Is it ok to install EPDM 2012 (server) on SQL Server 2008 Express edition?

EPDM comes with license of SQL 2008 R2 Standard Edition.

I have heard that it can run on Express, but why since it comes with Standard.

  EPDM running on SQL Express is not supported by SolidWorks.

Krishna,

I have run EPDM 2012 on SQL Express 2008 but only for testing. Wayne's right to suggest you use the included SQL Server R2.

  Thanks Wayne and Mike. Just noticed the second DVD in the EPDM kit. I will use it.
