Issues installing Umbraco on SQL Server 2008

I am having lots of problems install Umbraco on SQL Server 2008 are there know compatibility issues?

Also are there any good reasons not to use SQL Server CE 4?

What version of Umbraco? V5.x will only run on SQL 2008 out of the box. Umbraco 4.7 will definitely run just fine on SQL2008.

There is no reason you can't use SQLCE for development, but I wouldn't recommend it.

For production - the performance is just not good enough (though I suppose with a low traffic site it might work). With the much more powerful SQL Express also available for free, there is very little reason not to use it from the get-go, and it would alleviate the SQLCE->SQL Express upgrade headaches you may encounter down the road.
