Can not find SQL Server 2017 / 2014

In Lab 1.1 we have clearly explained this course supports VS 2017 , SQL Server 2017 developer edition.
VS 2019 has defects and hinders learning. Once the defects settle we will be creating fresh videos which
target 2019 edition.

Its sad Microsoft has removed all public link of 2017 from the direct main website. So to get access to VS
2017 , SQL Server 2017 developer edition please follow the below steps:-

Create a free account on https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/

Once you have account goto https://my.visualstudio.com/downloads and

Search for SQL Server 2017 developer edition , SSMS and VS 2017 and download it. Below is the
screen shot of the same.

For VS 2017 also search and download the installation.

44.You cannot deploy the model because localhost deployment server is not running

You cannot deploy the model because the localhost deployment server is not running in
multidimensional mode.
As explained in the installation video itself Tabular and Multidimensional need different installation. So
hope you have ran the installation twice. If not please check the first two labs.

Assuming two instances have been installed this error can be , Right click on the Cube project
properties .

And check the Server location is pointing to the appropriate Cube type as shown in the below figure. If
you are not aware of the server path location you can check from SQL Server management studio to
ensure the right server name.

46. ISPAC File issues

The final project deployment file has a ISPAC extension. In recent windows version ISPAC file deployment
does not start on double click. So if you double click it says how to execute this file and shows the open
with dialog box.

So I would suggest to go through the integration services catalog menu as shown below. This menu is
available in SQL server management studio when you connect to the RDBMS.

Right click on the projects of the folder name and click on deploy project menu.

In the next screen you can browse and pick up your ISPAC file and the deployment will start

In the next screen you can browse and pick up your ISPAC file and the deployment will start normally.
