Setting /UImode to Normal will present every dialog box that exists in the installer (even ones that do not apply to Express). Please take note that /Action parameter is required.
For this guide, I’m using the 2016 Full Offline installer, which can be found here: 圆4ENU.exe Run the installerĪfter that, you’ll want to run the installer on the package that you downloaded: Start by downloading the SQL Server installer. I’ve only tested this using the offline installer (roughly 400MB), not the bootstrapped version (4MB). Luckily for us, the installer creates the Configuration File for us. The trick to installing this silently is to create a ConfigurationFile.ini and then reference that during the install. That's about it! I definitely hope that these suggestions will help other System Administrators to fix this nasty issue.I needed to install SQL Server Express 2016 silently, but the documentation out there wasn’t the best. Once you'll get rid of these files, you should be able to run the installed from the downloaded SQL Server setup media file and complete your installation. From my experience, I have seen many times that the remains of older installation attempts can prevent the setup process from starting: when this situation occurs, the setup program might even throw some seemingly unrelated errors - including those mentioned above! If that's the case, the first thing you should do is to delete the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\140 folder (actually 140 for SQL Server 2017, 130 for SQL Server 2016 and so on) and try again. If you did all that and the issue persist, it probably means that the language & region don't have anything to do with your problem. Launch setup of SQL Server and see if the issued is now fixed. If you are 100% sure that you're playing with the proper toys and still got the issue, you can try to force a "refresh" of the regional settings status of your Windows machine. To do that, Go to Control Panel > Regional Settings, then change the Format language on the first section close window, re-enter and change format back to your locale.
In case you don't, be sure to either A) get the proper SQL Server setup media or B) get the EN-US one which always works or C) change your OS region matching the setup media. If you're using a non-english OS and/or a non-english SQL Server setup media, the first thing you should do is to check that you're using either an US-EN version of the SQL Server setup media (EN-US always works) or a localized version that does match the current regional settings of your OS.
Although it might be true, there are other possible scenario where the language files have nothing to do with the issue. Based on what the error are saying, you might easily think that you're experiencing some language-related problem - region mismatch, incorrect locale settings, wrong SQL Server media disk or file, and so on.
