I got strange feeling that my local computer runs several versions of SQL Server. How to know all running SQL Servers on my PC?
How to know all running SQL servers on my PC?
Best way would be to go through configuration manager ..As per your version you can open configuration manager and see all the versions of sqlserver installed.
Below is a snippet from my local machine
One more way would be to go through discovery manager,if you have installation media on your system.. you can double click the setup file and click on tools as shown below
and finally you can see all versions of sqlserver in a report like below .Distinct instance Id is the number of instances here.Opening sqlserver 2016 discovery report won't show 2017 instances,so always open with highest version

SQL Server Migration Assistant for access hangs after selecting MS Access database, it just shows 0% and nothing happens. Up to this point, everything worked fine, but after I configured encrypted connections on the server with a TLS certificate, for some reason starts to hang at 0%. At the same time, SQL Server Management Studio connects over an encrypted connection without issues and no other issues were[enter image description here noticed anymore.
Perhaps this information will help someone. I was able to solve my issue in the following way. I uninstall SSMA first, then uninstall Microsoft Access Database Engine 2016 Redistributable. Rebooted the machine, downloaded it again, and installed first SSMA then Microsoft Access Database Engine 2016 Redistributable.
BTW, what I reported earlier was on a Windows 10 machine. Just tried on a Windows Server box and did not run into any problem. That Windows Server box had the most recent defender patch, a slightly different version of course. Version 1.343.352.0
I have installed SQL Server management studio and have been using it for a little while, but now I decided to connect to the analysis services, it has been showing me a server not running error. I went ahead to check configuration manager according to some online solutions but i cant find any installation of the analysis services.
Cannot connect to (local).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
A connection cannot be made. Ensure that the server is running.
(Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient)
No connection could be made because the target machine actively
refused it 127.0.0.1:2383 (System)
Don. It seems to be a service version problem. Are versions of console and service the same?
Here you can find a nice example of using SQL server Discovery report How can I determine installed SQL Server instances and their versions?
Use the latest version of the installation disc.
There is no Configuration Manager in my apps in the start menu. I've installed SQL Server 2008 R2 on windows 10 64bit but unfortunately i'm not able to find the Configuration Manager App. I need it to use to change the server name of my SQL Server which was localhost before.enter image description here
C:\Windows\system32\SQLServerManager10.msc
By using this link still it is showing the app but it's not opening
By using this SQLSERVERMANAGER10.msc on run command window. The following picture elaboratesenter image description here the issue
Have you checked that the server is effectively running? The is the most common cause.
Launch Administrative Tools\Services and look for SQLSERVER
Also make sure the SQLSERVER Browser process is also running to enable connection discovery by client applications.
I'm currently using Postgresql Database 9.1 (running Adempiere)
I've been using SQL Server Data Tools on my computer and connecting directly to the server computer to create reports.
Now i want to install the Reporting Services aspect on the computer server so that other users can access the reports through the Report Manager. And also so that it can automatically deliver reports to the users
Is it possible to install SQL Server 2008 in the same computer as Postgresql? And if so, what are the steps that i need to take?
Thanks!
Yes, this is possible to install.
and You should not run into any problems, both servers run on different ports (by default) so both should run happily side by side.
But I dont think its supported, so you won't find any instructions.
Hope it helps.
I have two issues both related to (I believe) my SQL Server setup. I have installed SQL Server (the full thing) from MSDN downloads of the x64 version on my Vista 64 Home Premium box. After running into multiple issues I finally got it working. This is a new box so I ported over a database that I need to work on from another server. That also worked fine. My first issue however came when I tried to open a database in SQL Server Management Studio:
"Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed. (System.Data)"
The box itself isn't new and definitely has .NET installed (version 3 I believe). I found that someone posted this as a bug but as the team (SQL Server team) could not reproduce it, they removed it. I've tried installing the recommended SP3 patch to no avail. It's only when I try to open a table for viewing the data (right-click and "Open Table"). I can even execute queries and retrieve results (from inside management studio). I'll follow pretty much any suggestion to try and get this working.
My second issue is that I cannot connect to the server. I thought I could just work around it (with queries), but I did not find that it added any ODBC connections on the box, just the drivers. Management Studio can access the DB just fine, but the machine itself doesn't appear to recognize that anything is running on it, at least on the default port (1433) and no, I do not have a named instance. When trying to manually add the server to the DSN or any datasources it cannot find the SQL server (under Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Data Sources (ODBC). Under SQL Server Management Studio it appears as a registered database server (I think this is because it connects on port 1434 from what I hear? not sure). This is my primary problem, and even if I can't open the tables (the first issue) I absolutely NEED to be able to set it up so that I can connect to it. The language source I am connecting from is ColdFusion which is set up as a stand-alone server (IIS not installed, not using it right now).
As for connecting to it, make sure all the services are running. SQL Server Agent in particular.
Also, check in the SQL Server 2005 Surface Area configuration for Services and Connections. Check under "Remote Connections" to see if "local and remote" connections are on. It might be set to "local only".
CF versions 6+ do not use the OS's ODBC connections. They use JDBC over IP to connect. You need to make sure you have allowed TCP/IP connections to the DB using the SQL Server Configuration Studio. Then, use the Data Sources page in the CF Administrator page (usually localhost:port/cfide/administrator, replacing "port" with the port you're using for the CF built-in server).
Why though, would it default to this
and why would this be an issue with my
own machine (local testing)?
SQL Server 2005 is meant to be more secure by default, so not all the protocols are opened up by default.
Sql Server Agent doesn't have anything
to do with remote connections, but I
seemed to recall there being an issue
with doing discovery on the network if
the Agent wasn't started
Maybe you're thinking of the SQL Browser with named instances.
Did you try this process?
