Hi,<br />
<br />
How can I install SQL Server 2005 Express with INNO setup. Does anybody done this and can explain it to me? The things that I would like to accomplish are:<br />
<br />
Check if (an older version of) SQL Server is already installed (or when the user wants to install another instance of it)<br />
- install SQL Server 2005 Express unattended with parameters<br />
Installation will only be done on Windows XP, Vista and Windows Server 2003.<br />
<br />
I would appreciate a description as detailed as possible, so I know how to set thing up correctly. Maybe somebody is willing to share a INNO Setup projectfile where this is done.

How to: Install SQL Server 2005 Express with INNO setup

Installation is the act of making a computer program program ready for execution. Because the process varies programs often come with a specialized program responsible for doing whatever is needed for their installation. Installation may be part of a larger software deployment process. Cross platform installer builders that produce installers for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux include InstallAnywhere, InstallBuilder and Install4J. Installers for Microsoft Windows include Windows Installer, InstallShield, and Wise Installation Studio; free installer-authoring tools include NSIS, IzPack, Clickteam, InnoSetup, InstallSimple and WiX. Mac OS X includes Installer, and also includes a separate software updating application.

Installation

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.Component services include integration (SSIS), reporting (SSRS), analysis (SSAS), data quality, master data, T-SQL and performance tuning. It includes support for managing XML data and allows a database server to be exposed over web services using Tabular Data Stream (TDS) packets encapsulated within SOAP (protocol) requests.
