McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator - Fails to Install
Hi,
I've just purchased McAfee Complete Data protection for a care company who use remote laptops during the weekend for On call managers. Due to the nature of the staff i really brought it for the encryption, but i figured installing the ePolicy Orchestrator might be worth it.
I've installed a new instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 Express SP1 but every time i try and connect to it (even after restarting the server) it says that the database is not the required version. Does it not install on SQL server Express? As the installation guide implies it will install. What things could i check? The server is SBS 2011.
If i excecute 'select @@version' it does say SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1'.
And really, is EPO required or should i just install the encryption on the laptops.
Thanks,
Josh

Hi,
Thanks for your help. I've tried the above after you gave the link and it hasn't resolved the issue. To be sure i have even created a second user with the above permissions and it hasn't resolved it.
I've attached a screenshot to show the error i get with the configuration i have. Even using the SQL 'sa' account (which i can login to the SQL Management console with) doesn't work.
Starting to get a bit frustrated with it now :(
Cheers!
