I am trying to setup group policy to exclude SQL Server updates from being installed automatically. I found information pointing to a SQL Server administrative template that would be useful in this instance. I tried the below URL that I was able to find but was hit with a 404 File not found error.
download.microsoft.com/download/5/F/2/5F27DDF5-5C1C-4F5F-8B11-70D12A8825E5/SQLServer2019.ADMX
Does anyone know where I can find the administrative templates for any version of SQL Server 2016 or later?
I tried searching Microsoft's download center for SQL Server Administrative Templates but could not find anything except Windows Server (which do not include SQL Server admx files.

After installing SQL Server 2019 & SSRS 2019 developer editions, I am not able to use the object explorer in SSMS to connect to SSRS. (I am also unable to use a web address to open SSRS currently due to my security software.) I think the reason I can't use SSMS is due to one or more of the following:
an error in installation
problems with older version files still left on the computer
an error in using the report server configuration manager
the rsreportserver.config file not getting properly updated.
Before installing 2019 developer editions, I have installed and tried to uninstall most versions since 2012, including 2019 express & evaluation. When I tried to install 2019 evaluation software, I created a new db engine (MSSQLSERVER02) while installing SQL Server. After I installed SSRS, I used the report server configuration manager to use this new engine as the database). This tested correctly. I opened up SSMS & connected to this db engine. When I tried to go to SSRS, the only option was a previous db engine (MSSQLSERVER01). Though I put the new name in the config mgr, there still existed an rsreportserver.config file which had the old db engine (MSSQLSERVER01) and a coded database name.
When I uninstalled the eval ed., then installed the dev versions, I still had the same problem with the old db engine (MSSQLSERVER01) name appearing. When I chose the older db option, I get a lengthy error:
Cannot connect to LAPTOP-999999\MSSQLSERVER01. Unable to connect to the server at LAPTOP-999999\MSSQLSERVER01. The specified URL might not be valid or there might be a problem with the report server version or configuration. Specify a different URL, or contact your server administrator to verify that the report server runs SQL Server 2008 or later. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient)
When I type the the new db engine (MSSQLSERVER03) over the old, I get an error: "TITLE: LAPTOP-999999\MSSQLSERVER03 cannot be found.The Reporting Services instance could not be found. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient)
I also tried putting in the web address into the server name (suggested by DeanOC in a similar question).
Any direction on what to do next would be greatly appreciated!
thanks,

I've downloaded SQL Server 2016 standard edition trial along with SSDT in order to test what one can do with a standard edition in SSIS, SSRS, and SSAS.
I also wanted to know whether standard version's SSISDB logging capabilities differs from the one in Enterprise. For this I wanted to create an SSISDB catalog under Integration Services Catalogs in SSMS.
When I try to do this, however, I get the error saying that
The catalog backup file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\130\DTS\binn\SSISDBBackup.bak could not be accessed. Make sure the database file exists, and the SQL server service account is able to access it
From googling this issue it appears as this message shows up whenever someone doesn't have SSIS installed, but I have SSIS on the machine, I've even made a small Project and executed it from within SSIS without any issues just to verify.
I have set this up on localhost where I am the admin. Does anyone have any ideas why this won't work?
Regards,
Cenderze
To check if SSIS installed, open Sql Server Configuration Manager, in the SQL Server Services, is something like 'SQL Server Integration Services 13.0' running?
Experienced this error message on MS SQL Server 2017.
Resolved by launching MS SQL Server 2017 install media, added Integration Services feature.
After successful installation, when back into SSMS, right-click on Integration Services Catalog for Create Catalog... option.
You will be asked for an encryption password to create the new SSISDB.
Hope this helps!
I faced with this error when I used lower version of SSMS than SSIS. Check if you use proper version of SQL Management Studio.
You need to go back to the SQL Server installation and check the integration services checkbox.
The issue is because SQL Integration services is not installed properly with the existing SQL Server you are using.
you can check if SQL Integration services are installed or not by,
Opening --> SQL Server Configuration Manager--> SQL Server Services --> Check if "SQL Server Integeration Services is there"
if its there and if you still get the same issue try re-installing.
Else install the SQL Integration services to your existing SQL Server.
The detailed step to installation is given in this link : https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/6635/install-ssis/
hope this helps !!
I install SQL server 2014 Enterprise on my Laptop. It was working fine at first with automatic start of SQL server Service and Agent.
But now in order to login I have to start the service manually, although on configuration manager and services.mcs it shows that it is set to start automatically.
I tried even excluding the SQL server installation path from bitdefender but nothing seems to work
Help will be much appreciated
Check the SQL Server error log for related messages. The latest file is named errorlog (no extension) is located in the Log subfolder of the installation path. Older log files have a numbered extension.
The error log files can also be viewed from the SQL Server Management Studio Object Explorer under SQL Server Logs. This also allows you to view Windows Event Log messages that may be related.
If you need help resolving the errors, add the messages to your question.
I'm trying to move my databases to a newer Azure subscription. I used to simply click "Deploy to Azure" on a local database from SSMS and have it deployed to a specified Azure server. Importing/Exporting a BACPAC file also works. However, I can't seem to do any of this on the new server. I keep getting the error:
"The service objective 'Web' specified is invalid."
Googling around, I found this thread explaining the need to update the CREATE DATABASE template to accommodate Azure Databases (Azure upgrade, I'm guessing). However, the hotfix provided is specifically for SQL Server 2014 and I'm using SQL Server 2012. I checked other cumulative updates for 2012 here but found no fix for the issue.
Is there any other way I can fix this without having to upgrade to 2014?
Just to summarize my software versions:
SQL Server 2012
SQL Management Studio 11.0.2100.60
Local database: SQL Server 10.50.16000
Old Azure server: SQL Server 11.0.9230
New Azure server: SQL Server 13.0.15
You are getting this error because the latest V12 servers are not supporting the Web and Business Editions anymore. If you don't want to upgrade to SSMS 2014, you can create a V11 server and import your DB on this server. However this is only a temporary solution as Web and Business edition databases will be retired in September. At this point you will have to work with the latest tools to avoid this problem.
There is a Hotfix for it you can download and install on your machine. Please navigate to:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/kb/2936603
You need to enter your email then download link will be sent to your email address. Then install it on your machine and you can see the following options:
Install the database as a Data Project into Visual Studio,
Set the target framework in the properties window to SQL Azure,
Build the project and resolve any unsupported issues.
Publish to your azure site.
I have tried the above and did not work for me - this solution worked!
This is my first time using it, I come from a PHP/MYSQL background and a client is asking me to assist with his MSSQL database and he gave me a file which is the exported database, it doesn't have an extension though.
I downloaded and installed Microsoft SQL Server Management studio but I'm not sure what to do, the tutorials online seem to be able to connect to the local server, on my end when I browse for a Server name I can't find anything under "Local server".
If it helps, the client have informed me that his previous developer (the one who seems to have had a conflict with the client and left) was using the same application with the server type set to "Database engine" and the Authentication set to "Windows Authentication", that's all the information I have.
Please help. Thanks.
If you installed a default instance of SQL Server with Management Studio, use the server name "localhost". If you only installed SQL Server Management Studio, you will need to at least download SQL Express: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/products/sql-server-editions/sql-server-express.aspx
Also, note that if you develop in the latest version of SQL Server, you will not be able to back up and restore to the client's database if the client uses an older version. You will need to ensure all changes are scripted or use dacpacs (which you probably won't use).
