Hi Experts,
I am having problems upgrading sql 2008 r2 enterprise SP3 10.53.6000.34 to any later version of SQL server. I would like to upgrade to Sql 2014 enterprise but I can't get the 2014 full version evaluation edition to work. Â The error is FAILURE: "SQL 2014 Feature Upgrade"
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I have hundreds of SSRS reports so I thought upgrade would be the best option. Â If I install as a new version, how do I migrate all the reports just deploy them all again?
