cannot upgrade from sql 2014 to 2017

[AndreaKog 0]

Hi I'm Andrea from Italy,

I've successfully upgraded Eset Protect to 9.1...

after that and logged in console told me that my sql 2014 express is obsolete and I need to upgrade to a newer version (anyway all is working correctly also with current 2014).

I decided to upgrade to SQL 2017 express (and in future maybe to SQL 2019), so I followed the guide to update from a earlier version to 2017 (in eset knowledge base is referred from 2008 to 2017)... but when is checking feature rules an error occured (see image)

Do you know how to solve that?

Thanx in advance, Andrea

I'm not sure if you can avoid that and install MS SQL on DC (https://help.eset.com/protect_install/91/en-US/step_by_step.html).

As per https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/sql-server/install/hardware-and-software-requirements-for-installing-sql-server?view=sql-server-2017#DC_support:

• You cannot run SQL Server services on a domain controller under a local service account.

• SQL Server is not supported on a read-only domain controller. SQL Server Setup cannot create security groups or provision SQL Server service accounts on a read-only domain controller. In this scenario, Setup will fail.
