Error with SQL Server Setup 2012 on Windows 2012
15,172
After a few days of banging my head against my desk I got it installed. SQL Server 2012 on Windows Server 2012 is a bit fragile (at the time of writting).
What I had to do was very simple: Re download the install file from Microsoft.com. When you get errors that MSI files are missing (and they are still there), start over. Redownload the installation media.

TITLE: SQL Server Setup failure.
SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:
There is an error in XML document (108, 148)..
