  Hi,

  When you installed SQL Server, did you install with all the options checked. Like you can select some of the options.

  Also what license of sql server are you installing, is it express or developer or enterprise or standard? My understanding is that sql server agent should always be installed.

  I hope this helps. If my response answered your question, please mark the response as an answer and also vote as helpful.

  HI,

  You need to have a separate media to install SQL Server, that doesn’t come with the CRM setup media, if you don’t have the SQL Server media I would recommend downloading the trial versión so you can have at least more time to fix the licenses issue.

  You can download the SQL trial from here

  Hi, I am not sure what you mean with sql report servies certificate error, could you include a picture? Where do you see this error? In CRM or SQL? Did you configure the SQL Reporting Services? If you go to http://sqlservername/reports , does it work?

  Hi there.   Sorry for the limited information and for the delay in responding, I have been ill.  For me this is still very pressing.

  Here si the error I get when running the install:

  

  Obviously all I have done here is blanked out the server name.

  When I go to http://server/reports I get the web site certificate error page, when I click on "continue anyway" the 'page cannot be found.  So I'm guessing I need to set up SQL report services??  Not sure...

  I can browse to

  http://server.domain.local:80/reportserver and login with server.domain.local\administrator and I get this page:

  

  server\reportserver
  server:80\reportserver
  server.domain.local\reportserver
  server.domain.local:80\reportserver

  All of which throw the same error.

  CONFUSED!!!!!!

  EDIT:

  Ive followed this/these without results:

  Yeah sure.

  If you look closely at the two images I posted...  you'll notice a discrepency

  I am inputting an address beginning with "http" to the CRM install but my reports server is on "https".  Add the "s" and the install went straight through.
