Hi,
I'm stuck while installing SQL Server 2019.
I've followed these steps from another answer related to this topic here

  • To install SQL Server Reporting Services, do the following:
    • Log in as an administrator on the server where the SQL server is installed.
  • Open SQLServerReportingServices.exe. The following screen will be displayed:
    • Click Install Reporting Services. The following screen will be displayed:
    • Select the Enter the product key option, and type the product key for SQL Server 2017.
  • Click Next. The following screen will be displayed:

Now in the above last steps when I enter the product key for SQL Server 2017, it is displaying "invalid" key as the response.
Do I've to get new key for SQL Server 2019?

    If you are just the normal user, just choose express verison.
