Sharepoint 2013 Install problems - sql

I am trying to install Sharepoint 2013 on my test SERVER 2012 Server.
I have pre installed all the prerequisites but when i run the installer it says AppFabric is not configured correctly but i have set this up and also configured the AppFabric Cache.
I have unistalled this and tried using the sharepoint prerequisite installer but it skips the AppFabric installation.
I have installed all the roles needed for server 2012 to be a DC and have also installed SQL 2013 on the server.
The sharepoint installer keeps saying AppFabric is not configured correctly!
Very frustrating...i cannot proceed with any other installation until this is installed.
Any help would be greatful..

Hope this helps you, see that the string does not have any space, prerequisiteInstaller.exe /appfabric:Z:\Softwares**Sharepoint 2013PreRequisite**\WindowsServerAppFabricSetup_x64.exe, look this Sharepoint 2013PreRequisite remove the space. Look this link1

Using SMO with VS2013 Windows Desktop application project

I am building a VB.NET application in VS2013 that uses a database created in SQL Server 2012 (which is installed locally and on the only computer that the application will be run on).
I need to execute a SQL script when the user clicks on a button. I know that I need to Import resources from SMO but when I run the SharedManagementObjects.msi installer I get a message that says,
"Installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Management Objects failed
because a higher version already exists on the machine. To proceed,
uninstall the higher version and then run Microsoft SQL Server 2012
Management Objects Setup again."
What do I need to do to get SMO installed to use in my project?
I am assuming you are using nuget??
It appears that you must have 2014 installed, search for this in your installed packages and click uninstall. Now try and install the 2012 version.
Or in the Package Manager Console:
Uninstall-Package Unofficial.Microsoft.SQLServer.SMO.2014
Followed by:
Install-Package Unofficial.Microsoft.SQLServer.SMO
http://www.nuget.org/packages/Unofficial.Microsoft.SQLServer.SMO.2014/

Error 0x84b10001 when installing SQL Server 2012 on a machine with VS2013

I'm trying to install SQL Server Express with Service Pack 1 on my Win8 Pro (x64) development machine and I'm consistently getting an error 0x84b10001 when trying to install it:
Antivirus is disabled during the installation (done as Administrator) and I tried 2 versions of the SQL Server Express package and I'm getting the same issue with both.
I'm getting the same issue whether I'm trying the x86 or x64 packages.
I suspect that the issue comes from the fact that Visual Studio 2013 has already installed some SQL Server packages but I do not see any way to update and modify these to add the Management Studio for istance.
Well, turns out that this cryptic error is due to an older instance of SQL Server Desktop Engine (MSDE) being present.
After uninstalling MSDE, the SQL Server 2012 setup worked without errors.
Create a new local user with administative rights and try the installation again. In my case it solves the problem with MSSQL 2008R2.
Create new user with administrative privileges and install using that user. It worked.
Remove folder:
C:\Users[USER ID]\AppData\Local\Microsoft_Corporation
It worked for me.
If you try to install SQL Server 2014 and get this error, use this web site:
http://anewdomain.net/2013/10/21/how-to-enable-net-framework-2-0-and-3-5-in-windows-8-1-for-older-programs/
You should install .NET Framework 2.0 and 3.5 first. You should check the framework versions on your PC. If you have only 4.5, you will continue to get the same error code.
Anyway, I fixed my trouble.
I hope it helps you too.
In my case, it was because trying to install an x86 package on an x64 windows, installing x64 package worked for me.

Can we install SharePoint 2010 on Windows server 2012

One straight question.
Can we install SharePoint 2010 on Windows Server 2012??
If we can install, Can someone please provide with some links to proper documentation on how to install it?
Not yet. Service Pack 2 will allow support, but since there is not installation media for it yet, you cannot go directly to Service Pack 2. Once the Slip Stream Package for SP2 is release (or a full installation media), Server 2012 will be supported. I would watch this page for updates on that: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2724471/en-us

Trouble installing SQL Server 2012 Express with Advanced Services

Whenever I try to install SQL Server 2012 Express with Advanced Services I am getting this error:
I have tried both version (32-bit/64-bit) and re-downloaded multiple times.
How can I solve it ?
Check if you have .Net framework 4 installed at your machine. If not - download it and install it and then try again with SQL Server.
Also check this bug at Microsoft site about .Net framework 4 (there is workaround explained in the bug).
FWIW, I just downloaded and installed SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe from HERE on a vanilla Win7Pro/64 VirtualBox virtual machine and encountered no errors.
Edit
I also installed SQLEXPRADV_x64_ENU.exe from that same location on an older Vista machine. The SQL Server installer told me that it needed some new .NET components, then it proceeded to download and install them. I didn't need to manually install anything ahead of time.
Also perhaps worth noting:
Both of the machines on which my installs were successful had no anti-virus software installed. (They are development boxes behind a firewall and I don't do email or web surfing on them.)

Sharepoint 2010 workflows via VS2010 - really need server installed locally?

I went to create a SP2010 Workflow project in VS2010, and it complained that I did not have SP Server installed on my machine.
Well, I do not want to install SP2010 on my dev machine. I have a perfectly good dev instance installed onto a VM.
Is it possible at all to design SP 2010 workflow projects in VS2010 without having a local instance of Sharepoint?
Cheers,
Daniel
Well, it looks like the answer is "No, you must have SP2010 installed locally"
Will VS let you continue after receiving that message?
Microsoft recommendation is to install Visual Studio on the your DEV VM (running Windows Server 2008 R2) that has SharePoint running. You'll also get additional debug features by doing this, like F5 debugging/breakpoints, and auto deploy/retract of your solutions.
