I am having trouble installing SQL 2008 Small Business Edition on top of MS 2008 std from the SBS premium suite. I recieve the SQL Server 2008 R2 setup log error stateing "Operating system supported for edition "Failed". The specific error is "EditionRequirementCheck Failed" This SQL server edition is not supported on this operating system.
The SQL 2008 server is a valid SBS domain member server and sees the SBS domain just fine. I have tried re-installing the OS. Not selecting any options except the SQL engine, verbose logging as per How to diagnose "Operating system supported for edition" pre-requisite errors while installing SQL 2008 Standard Edition for Small Business with no success. (no log.txt generated), enabled browsing, and other items with no luck.
I got the software from MVLS under the specific SBS 2011 premium section. It doesnt seem right or sees something to keep it from installing. The SBS AD box is clean with all FSMO and root functions assigned to it. There are no trust relationships or child domains. I have licenses for 75 users. Of course there is no tool, log or utility to find what the actual issue the SQL installation is seeing. SOS! Help!!!
