  6. Ensure that the following Nuget feeds are available and enabled as package sources (Visual Studio > Tools-Nuget Package Manager > Package Manager Settings > Package Sources): 

Microsoft SQL Server 2012

In addition to a base installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (Developer Edition, Standard Edition, or Enterprise Edition), the following components must be installed and configured. In SQL Server 2012 setup:

  1. When prompted, select the following features:
    • Database Engine Services (Replication/text search/data quality services are NOT required.)
    • SQL Server Data Tools
    • Management Tools – Complete
  2. Use the default instance named MSSQLSERVER.
  3. Select SQL Server and Windows Authentication Mode.
  4. In Specify SQL Server administrator, click Add Current User.

 

Several configuration settings must be changed in the solution if a local default instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 is not used. The steps required to changes these settings are described in Step 3, below.

Microsoft Message Queue Server Core

The MSMQ Server Core must be installed and configured. Using Windows 8:

  1. In Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features select the Turn Windows features on or off menu.
  2. Select the Microsoft message Queue (MSMQ) Server Core option as shown below.
  3. Press OK to confirm installation of MSMQ.

Windows Azure SDK v2.3

The solution currently has dependencies on Azure SDK even if Azure is not used as a deployment option. Install the Windows Azure SDK, version 2.3 by following the directions at http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42317. You will need to follow the manual instructions in the "Install Instructions" section on this page.

The Windows Azure SDK, version 2.3 has been deprecated, and is no longer available using the Microsoft Web Platform installer. Until the Ed-Fi ODS / API Azure projects are updated to a newer version of the SDK, the Ed-Fi code is not compatible with newer SDK versions.

More information about Windows Azure and the Windows Azure SDK is provided in Appendix C of this documentation.

Java JRE version 8 or higher

The Profiles feature of the Ed-Fi ODS / API ships with integration tests that generate a version of the Ed-Fi ODS / API SDK. This generation step requires the Java JRE version 8 or newer to be installed. You can install the latest version of the Java Runtime Engine from https://java.com/en/download/.
