Hi,

I hope this is the best spot to ask this question, if not, please tell me where to put it.

I'm currently trying to create a new enterprise geodatabase for my company, unfortunately I have limited experience with this side of Arc and have fallen into this role.  At the present time, I have a server running Windows Server 2012, this server is running 2 virtual servers (also on Server 2012) via Hyper-V.  One of the servers is SDE SERVER with Arc 10.5 installed, the other is SQL SERVER and runs Microsoft SQL 2012. 

I'm trying to use the Create Enterprise Geodatabase Tool via Arc Catalog on my local computer.  It sees the SQL Server, and the database "SDE" that I created on it.  However, when I run the tool I'm greeted with the following error:

Start Time: Mon Apr 15 09:00:53 2019
User has privileges required to create database objects.
Database already exists.
Validated authorization file.
User has required privileges for geodatabase setup.
XML support is enabled for the database instance.
Successfully enabled database option ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION and READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT.
Created geodatabase tables and stored procedures.
The geodatabase system table could not be created.GDB_Items : Error (-51)
See the setup log in the following location for additional error information:
C:\Users\KSLAWH~1\AppData\Local\Temp\sde_setup.log
Could not create geodatabase schema.
Failed to execute (CreateEnterpriseGeodatabase).

Any help is much appreciated.  I wouldn't say I'm lost, but I definitely need some guidance. 
Thanks for the help.

I believe so - once SP3 is installed, try to create an enterprise geodatabase again.  Also confirm you have MS ODBC Driver for SQL client installed too (11, 13, or 13.1).

For ArcGIS 10.5, MS SQL Server 2012 SP3 (64-bit) is the supported RDBMS so I would recommend checking that AND seeing if the correct SQL Server client in installed.  For SQL Server 2012, the supported clients may be found here.

I'm downloading SP3 now and I'll check to see if that works.  I currently have the SQL 2012 Native Client installed on my local machine.  Is that the correct configuration?

Thank you for your help.

Kyle - wanted to check in to see if you were able to create a new enterprise geodatabase after the recent updates.

Robert, I've encountered another issue.  It was working yesterday, but as of lunch time today I'm unable to get a connection to the database in Arc Catalog.  I'm greeted with the following error:

Failed to connect to the specified server.  Do you want to continue?  This release of the GeoDatabase is either invalid or out of date.  DBMS table not found [42S02:[Microsoft[ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server][SQL Server] Invalid object name 'SpartanSDE.sde.GDB_Release'.][SpartanSDE.sde.GDB_Release]

If I try to create a new enterprise geodatabase I get the same error that I got when I made this thread initially.

Kyle - so the error message only appears while in ArcCatalog but not ArcMap, correct?  And to confirm, you're using ArcMap 10.5, SQL Server 2012 (SP 3) 64-bit, installed the SQL client and MS ODBC Driver for SQL client 13?

I have not tried creating the geodatabase in Arc Map. 

I'm using Arc 10.5.1 across the entire suite of products.

The SQL Server is running SQL 2012 SP3.  My client machine has Arc Catalog 10.5.1 the SQL Native Client, and the MS ODBC Driver 13.
