I've had an instance of SQL Server (Express) installed on a local CPU, working fine, that today suddenly is encountering an error during connection in SSMS to the server.
In following the steps from some discussions about this, in config manager, I see nothing showing for Services.
Discovery report shows this installed.
Any ideas on what I need to do in order to link back again to the server?
I was able to resolve the issue by running the Maintenance-Repair feature with the installation center and then I ran repair for SSMS on top of that. Not sure what happened still and am interested if anyone has any ideas.

I just installed MSSQL 17 evaluation, and I installed SSIS service.
I know SSIS is running
And I want to access it from SQLServer Management (SSMS) But I cannot find its service from SMSS GUI. What have I done wrong?
This is my 3rd attempt after reinstalling everything from zero.
Does anybody ever experience this? How to solve?
Below pic shows my SSMS GUI, trying to setup connection to Integration Service, but I couldn't find it
Ensure the below few things ...
1) Use latest SSMS https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssms/download-sql-server-management-studio-ssms?view=sql-server-2017
2) Also from your screen shot i am not sure if you have choosen the Intgration Services from the SSMS in the server type. Below is what i meant.
You could connect using DATABASE ENGINE to your local instance .
Then using object explorer under Integration Services Catalog you got full overview of deployed projects and environments:

I'm running an SSIS package on a recent install of SQL Server 2016. Recently the All Axecutions report of the Integrations Services Catalogs SSISDB started looking like the screenshot below. The package that is executed on a 5 minute basis runs fine. No errors. I can see the data being transferred as expected. Something is wrong with this report. I did some searching around and can't seem to find anything.
Anybody have any ideas as to what is wrong? Why is it showing #Error everywhere?
Solution: Restart SSMS.
I can reproduce this error with on SSMS 13.0.16106.4 / SQL Server 13.0.4206.0 (Although the reports was working for a period, the the issue came back).
With the SQL same user, but running SSMS 12.0.5000.0 (from a remote desktop) the reports were fine.
Another user with SSMS 14.0.17177.0 has never had the issue.
Restarting the server had no effect.
I restarted SSMS 13.0.16106.4, which solved the issue. This could be a SSMS memory issue.

Using SSMS Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 14.0.17285.0. Solved this by closing SSMS and restarting it.
I had this exact same problem and initially thought it was due to using the latest SSMS package - 17.1 on Windows 10 - but others with the same setup were not getting the errors.
I then ran the configuration for SSRS (which had been installed but not configured). This created the reporting server databases but made no difference. I don't think SSIS reporting uses SSRS anyway but not sure.
I then ran Windows update and it installed latest .NET 4.7 packages.
After a re-boot SSIS reporting was back to normal!
So one or combination of what I did above together with a re-boot made the difference but equally it may just have been a re-boot that was required.
This was on my development machine and I have been backing up and restoring the SSISDB from production to my development environment - this may have a bearing on attempting to re-producing this problem but I have not experienced it since and after fully deleting and restoring the SSISDB.
Hope that helps?
I had this issue. Turns out I had dropped some windows groups from the database I was loading data into (which was on a completely different server). When I added them back, the reports worked and didn't show #error
This makes absolutely no sense of course, but I thought I'd document it in case it helps or jogs someones memory

I had some very large nHibernate queries (captured from Extended Events) open in a couple of SSMS tabs. I closed each tab and restarted SSMS version 18.8.
Problem solved!
OK, I'm at wit's end here (not like I have many to start with, but that's a different story!). So (sigh)...
Somewhere along the line I get the distinct feeling that one or more of my database drivers have been corrupted or something, and I don't know how to fix the issue without a reinstall of Windows, which would be crazy. Here's the issue:
I am working on several web site projects, and I've been using Visual Studio 2015 Community and SQL Server 2014 Developer at home, with SQL Server Management Studio as the tool of choice for working with the databases, on a Windows 10 64-bit box. I've been developing code locally, and for the last couple weeks I haven't had need to connect to the (eventual) production SQL Server databases on my hosting provider's servers. The last time I connected (maybe two weeks ago) to them everything was fine and dandy, and I'd not had any issues before then with connectivity either.
Yesterday I needed to connect, and so I launched SSMS to sign in to the database. Instead of connecting, I got the error message about "network path not found", meaning SSMS couldn't find the database server. After several retries, I attempted to connect using Visual Studio's Server Explorer window, with the same resulting error message.
I tried to PING the server and was successful. I got a TELNET connection as well to port 1433, so the server name's correct, and I was able to resolve the name to the right IP. Still, I cannot make a DB connection to the remote databases.
I followed all of the suggestions for this basic issue, including turning off Windows Firewall, and I even turned off my cable modem's firewall, just to test whether it was something there. Still no joy.
As the ultimate step, I uninstalled SQL Server, SSMS, Visual Studio, and all of the accompanying bits, plus I deleted all of the folders for Visual Studio and SQL Server, to ensure everything I could find to delete was gone.
I opened a command prompt and ran cliconfg to make sure named that both TCP and named pipes were enabled, and they were.
I installed LinqPad after a reboot just to see if now I could connect, and still nothing.
Interestingly, I changed the connection string in the web.config file for my ASP.NET web site project on the local IIS box to point to the remote server's database, and it works.
So, now I have NO EARTHLY CLUE what's going on with my local machine that could be causing this. I've now spent almost two complete days on this. I haven't reinstalled SQL Server, SSMS or Visual Studio yet, but something's still not right that I can't get to the bottom of. Reinstalling Windows is not really an option if I can avoid it.
The question is, has anyone else run across something like this, and how can it be diagnosed or fixed?
To test connectivity try this
1. Create a blank text file in a folder
2. Rename the extensión to .udl to the text file (exmanple New textfile.udl)
3. Double click on New textfile.udl
The .udl file will show you input connection paremeters, fill them and click on Test connection. This can help you to test your drivers and SQL Server's
Interestingly, after two maddening days of pulling my hair out, I discovered that the .NET Data Provider For SQL Server was corrupted, evidently by a virus that made it past my AV software and was very stealthy, because the thing it affected was the SQL Server drivers.
The way I figured this out was to use the OLEDB data provider in Visual Studio to connect successfully to the remote database, which worked perfectly.
The fix to this was to run different AV software, which found and removed the virus, then I reinstalled SQL Server and Visual Studio, and it all works like a charm again!
I have installed SQL Server Management Studio 2012 and there is a problem when I open it it asks me to enter a server name. Which I failed a lot. I tried enter everything that is asked on net when I searched for. Nothing worked it gave me error which the image below shows. TCP is enabled.
And when I opened SQL Server Configuration Manager it shows empty. When I try to browse for server it also shows completely empty.
What can I do to fix this? . Or how can I create a new instance as it says my instance is not found.
I saw lot of posts regarding similar problem but non of them really couldn't address my problem.
Actually I haven't installed it properly. I had installed SQL server Management Studio only. Now it is perfectly working after installing SQL server. From here actually. And I browser for server name it was there.
In Visual Studio 2012 I try clicking the "Manage NuGet Packages..." option on a project and when the package manager opens it tries to load for a while before giving me "Unable to connect to remote server".
There is a similar question here: Visual Studio/C#: Nuget Unable to connect to remote server
but it doesn't appear to have any answer that I can see.
I have tried updating Visual Studio 2012 as well as updating NuGet (the "Extensions and Updates" option still works just fine) and then restarting but no such luck. It was working earlier, but I have since created a new database connection using the Database Explorer. I don't know if that would affect anything but that's the only change I could think of that I've made since it was working.
Please let me know if you need any other information.
Edit: Okay so apparently this fixes itself after a while. But only AFTER you've submitted a question about it... sigh. I'd still like to know what the issue is if anyone has any idea, but at least it's working now.
While you could certainly access the cached packages on your own machine, if you're working in a team you could install ProGet as an intermediary NuGet server, and it will automatically cache the remote packages on your network for your team.
