Hello,

I do not have enough disk space on c:\ during installation (e.g. 3 GB which is enough for the installation validation; all is green) because I had to cancel it (not intelligent installation tool). Hence I need to change the temp extraction folder

C:\Users\MY_TEST_USER\AppData\Local\Temp

to e.g. d:\.

What is the command line expression (e.g. "setup.exe \NEW_TEMP_EXTRACTIONFOLDER=d:\")?

Thanks!

Could you please post the installation log from Summary.txt/Detail.txt

Are you asking for command line expression for installing SQL server 2012 ?

Thanks for the answers but I have already specified to install all to d:/ (database instance, shared folder). The challenge is that the installation files are extracted to

C:\Users\MY_TEST_USER\AppData\Local\Temp

which will take at least 3GB. In this case my HDD is full.

My solution is to use LINUX's "gparted" and shift more space from d:/ to c:/ allowing the Microsoft MS SQL installation files to be extracted in c:/.

If you have any Microsoft solutions here we will be happy if it works your way?

Thanks!
