Hi, I m trying to upgrade one of our Development servers (2014 Deveoper Edition) to SQL Server 2016 Developer edition and getting the below error. Anyone came across something similar? I couldn't find anything helpful in the online, i m doing
in-place upgrade. Appreciate any advise! Thanks!
Feature: Database Engine Services
Status: Failed: see logs for details
Reason for failure: An error occurred for a dependency of the feature causing the setup process for the feature to fail.
Next Step: The upgrade process for SQL Server failed. To continue the upgrade process, use the following information to resolve the error. Next, uninstall SQL Server by using this
command line: setup /q /action=uninstall /instanceid=MSSQLSERVER /features=SQLENGINE,DQ,FULLTEXT,REPLICATION. Then, run SQL Server Setup again.
