    I've just upgraded our SQL Server 2008 instance to SP1 and am getting the below error when using DacImportExportCli.exe:

     

    "DAC Exception: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Dac.MissingDacSchemaException: Unable to proceed with DAC operations on the target instance because it does not support DACs. Specify another instance, or upgrade to a version that supports DACs."

    The command I am using is below.

     

    "DacImportExportCli.exe -s WATSON\DEVELOPMENT -d DatabaseName20111028 -e -f D:\Backup\20111028_DatabaseName.bacpac -i"

    Is there anything I am missing?

    Hey Luke,

    DAC supports importing to 2008 SP2 and newer.
