#SQL Server
To run the DevExpress ASP.NET MVC Extensions demos locally, one of the following versions of Microsoft SQL must be installed.
- Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (SP3)
- Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express Edition (SP1)
- Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express
- Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB
- Microsoft SQL Server 2014
- Microsoft SQL Server 2016
- Microsoft SQL Server 2017
- Microsoft SQL Server 2019
Microsoft SQL Server is required because DevExpress demos use locally deployed .mdf files as data sources.
Note
If you are using a custom named instance for your installation of Microsoft SQL Server Express, you will need to browse the web.
Starting with version 13.
- .\SQLEXPRESS
- (localdb)\vX
- (local)
When opening a demo project directly in Visual Studio, it is possible to adjust the connection strings based on the development environment. Refer to the KA18667 - How to configure SQL Server for demo databases article to learn more.
