I have currently installed SQL server without the management studio but now I want to delete a database on the analysis service but I cannot after installing the management studio because I cannot see the analysis service on the connect to tab. Is there anyway I can access the services from command prompt and delete the database?
Use ascmd - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365187(v=sql.90).aspx

I just installed SQL Server Management Studio, version 18.9.1, on a Windows 10 system. The installed Management Studio cannot discover known SQL Server databases out on the network, so I cannot log into a SQL Server using SQL authentication.
Please note, the target SQL Server has been installed for a while, and is running fine. I am trying to access this SQL Server from a new workstation.
The SQL Server Browser is running on the SQL Server I am trying to reach.
I am confused as to what should be installed if what I installed is not correct. I'm also confused as to which services to check are installed after installation. It doesn't look like a SQL Agent or locator service was installed, after I installed SQL Server Management Studio.
Am I better off installing a development database and just not using it in order to get the locator service?
I created a project in visual studio and I want to use SQL Server Management Studio to see database. What should be the server name?
On connecting to sql server, it gives error:
I tried finding server name using cmd so the result was:
Note:
My sql server configuration manager doesn't contain any sql server services. I was using sql server 2012 so now I downloaded sql server 2017 but same, so services are shown.
How can I connect to sql server?
You will not be able to connect to the SQL server if the SQL Server service is not running. Once you have verified your service is running, you can use the option in the Server name to select your SQL Server Name.
Irfan.
You can connect to SQLServer with two ways:
Usually you run SQLServer instance as service and connect using server credentionals
Sqlexpress "embedded" style - connect to mdf/mdb-file. Behind the scenes it will start localdb service and attach db-file.
First way is recommended in most cases.
Run services.msc and look for sqlserver instances. If they are down - start one. If they are notexistent - rerun installation and check options.
I have downloaded the SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) 2016 to recover a huge .bak file which is an old backup of a database. But first of all I need to connect to a DB Server.
After install, I execute SSMS and it asks me to connect to a DB Server. I don't have any and I saw that it is possible to create a "local" db by typing only a dot '.' for Server Name and use Windows authentication.
It is not working; how to do it?
Open SSMS -> Connect
Server name: (LocalDb)\MSSQLLocalDB,
Choose Windows Authentication.
For a reference:
You need to download and install SQL LocalDB. It is a special edition of SQL Server that does not allow remote connection and supports windows integrated authentication only. It is a simple one click MSI install so it is easy to deploy.
To download and install SQL Server 2016 Express, go to SQL Server
downloads. LocalDB is a feature you select during installation, and is
available when you download the media. If you download the media,
either choose Express Advanced or the LocalDB package.
The above means that now you have to download and run a small downloader (cca 5 MB), select LocalDB (44 MB) and the Microsoft downloader will download MSI package to the folder you select. Then just run MSI package and LocalDB gets installed.
To recover your Dump, you need one server where your dump will get uploaded.
For this you need one MS server. you can connect to server using username and password. After connection to server you can create a DB in which you want the dump to get imported.
If your SQL dump contains create Database statement, then you don't need to create one.
If its possible to open SQL dump in text file, you can see Database name required to create or its already have statement to create DB.
In my case, solution was using my notebook name and SQLEXPRESS like DESKTOPXPTO\SQLEXPRESS
I was able to connect to local host in ssms ,after downloading SQL server developer.
As mentioned in - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssms/quickstarts/ssms-connect-query-sql-server?view=sql-server-ver16
Prerequisites

hi i am not able to create ssis catalog in my management studio?
it is showing this error....
The catalog backup file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\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. (Microsoft.SqlServer.IntegrationServices.Common.ObjectModel)
I have the same issue. Trying to google my way through it. Things I have noted in answers from other sites:
Integration Services has to be part of your SQL Server install
(update the product and add if missing, this will add the file)
Version of SQL Server Management Studio and SQL Server engine need to match
File may be in the wrong location, find it and copy it into where SQL Server is looking for it.
Run SQL Server Management Studio as Administrator to avoid permissions issues
My solution was that I was attempting to create the SSIS DB on a remote server and not the server I was logged into. Once I attempted on the local server it worked fine.
I am trying to create a small wpf application by using mdf.
The problem is that when I am trying to add new service-based database (.mdf) I am getting the error "Connection to SQL Server database files (.mdf) require SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Server 2008 Express to be installed and running on the local computer. The current version of SQL Server Express can be downloaded at the following url (link)".
The SQL Server 2008 is already been installed.
What am I doing wrong?
Check to make sure the SQLExpress service is running.
From a command prompt:
sc query mssql$sqlexpress
If the state returned is "1 STOPPED", then start the service with
sc start mssql$sqlexpress
Make sure the services are running on your box. The important ones will be SQL Server, and SQL Server Agent.
