I'm trying to do a SQL Server 2008 setup and I've been given a Cross Language Installation failure. More specifically:
Rule "cross language installation: failed. the Setup language is different than the language of existing SQL Server features. To continue, use SQL Server Setup installation media of the same language as the installed SQL Server features.
I do not have SQL Server Express installed and I browsed through "Add or Remove Programs" and was unable to find anything that looked like it was a previous version of SQL.
Any tips?
Uninstall the existing SQL Server and all the components from the add remove program. Backup the registry. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and delete all the sub-keys referencing SQL Server.
In SQL Server 2019, Java, C#, Python, and R runtimes are supported. For executing Python or R in SQL Server, see the Machine Learning Services documentation. With SQL Server 2019 and later, you can use a custom Python and R runtime with Language Extensions.
SQL Server supports all languages that are supported by Windows operating systems.
I restarted the setup after facing the same problem, and I realized that man should not close the installation center till the setup process is completed. If you leave it open it will work.
Change the Current Windows Language interface for the needed language you want to install. That will make it possible for the Installer to launch the Localized version.
