We have a multi instance install of SQL Server 2008 R2 on Windows Server 2008 R2. We would like to upgrade both of these. The SQL upgrade seems fairly straightforward but I was wondering if anyone had any guidance regarding upgrading the Server OS itself when running SQL Server? I did some searching but did not find any solid guidance on whether this is a bad idea (I know technically this OS upgrade path is supported).

SQL Server 2014 64bit

I am getting the following error when adding a passive node. This is a virtual environment and the service account is already running an active mode on this node. I logged into this node with the service account and it works fine. Just during the install of the passive node; it throws the error below when adding the passwords to the service accounts screen.

node1 (instance1, instance2) A, P  ---- node2 (instance2, instance1) A, P

I am trying to add instance1 (passive instance) on node2

[Error Message]

The specified service account is not supported. Depending on the operating systems Virtual Accounts and Managed Service Accounts are also supported.

[Details]

Microsoft.SqlServer.Configuration.SqlEngine.ValidationException: The specified service account is not supported. Depending on the operating systems Virtual Accounts and Managed Service Accounts are also supported.

Does SQL Server (2003, 2008, 2012) support TLS 1.2? Is so, how to configure it?

I have installed SQL Server 2008 R2 on a Windows 2008 R2 machine, and following instruction to set TLS 1.2 for IIS, while IIS works with TLS 1.2 (verified with a remote browser restricted to TLS 1.2), the SQL Server to a restricted client would fail and the server had chosen TLS 1.0 - anyone knows if there is a solution for this - many thanks.

Does anyone know if running SQL 2008 R2 on Windows Server 2008 R2 if you can enable TLS 1.2 for connections between the SQL server and the SQL 2008 R2 ODBC client? I successfully enabled TLS 1.2 in IIS 7.5. But a network trace with the same system tweaks showed that the SQL connection was only being negotiated at TLS 1.0.

Enabling TLS 1.2 for IIS 7.5 can be found here:

http://derek858.blogspot.com/2010/06/enable-tls-12-aes-256-and-sha-256-in.html

The big difference between TLS 1.0 and 1.2 is the use of SHA-256 hashing instead of SHA1. NIST has recommended the phasing out of SHA1 in favor of SHA-256.

Could really use some help.

Am running XP Pro SP3.  Had 2005 Express running fine previously.  Installed 2008 Express but cannot get the SQL Server service to start.  SQL Server Agent does start though.  In log (below) it seems to be trying to access an E:\ drive that doesn't exist (did default install to C:\Program Files) - plus other issues.  Have 5gig+ free, so not sure why it's saying not enough space.  Have RTFMd the problem for a whole day with no luck.  Any advice much appreciated.

I installed sql server management studio 2012 about 3 months ago to test drive and from time to time I'll attempt to change my background color of the TSql editor "In the fonts and colors option under tools"; however, the entire studio crashes and restarts.

This has been ongoing since I first installed it 3 or 4 months ago, and have waited on posting to a fourm for help, assuming I am not the only one this is happening to I've waited for an update that might fix the issue.

I've got to start on some heavy scripting and that god awful white background kills my eyes. I've got to have a black background or my work day is cut off by about 3 hours becuase of strain.

What can I provide to someone that would help me with this?

Thank you,

Hi,

I have SQL Server 2014 installed on a Windows 10 platform. I'm trying to uninstall it, but when I go through the uninstall I get multiple warning stating "The following error has occurred: SQL Server Setup failed to restore the instance id."

At the end I get a complete with failures. The following features fail

• Database Engine Services
• Data Quality Services
• Full-Text and Semantic Extractions for Search
• SQL Server Replication

The all show the same error in the Summary.txt. Here is what the Database Engine Services says as an example.

Is there a way I can get SQL Server Uninstalled?

In case of MSSQL Server 2008, SQL server has created some SQL Server users like

SQLServerMSSQLUser$hostname$MSSQLSERVER

SQLServerMSSQLAgentUser$hostname$MSSQLSERVER

...

However, MSSQL Server 2012 seems not creating such users.

Our software product is using SQL Server, we need to make sure of the validity of these user settings.

May I know whether there is no problem without these users in SQL server 2012 ?

I've been having a lot of trouble installing SQL Server 2012.  This was a new install, no other versions of SQL Server were on the machine.

After several restarts, install attempts, and running the installer in Repair mode, Management Studio finally installed but there is no localhost.  But it can connect and query to remote instances.

The installer will not create a local instance.  When I try to connect to localhost or "." in SQL Management Studio, it fails and I get this error:

""

I've spent a day just trying to install SQL 2012, any suggestions welcome!

much appreciated,

Ok I guess I'm lost on this. Seems simple. I'm installing SQL 2014 Std on Server 2012 R2. I have two drives added. E:\ and T:\

I install basic SQL with Mgt tools. When I get to the paths in the install, for DB, Logs, Backup and Temp DB I select either drive then create folder etc. I also add in the Domain user account I created for the services.

So E:\DB, E:\Logs, E:\Backups and T:\TempD

I have tried this now three times. However when I go into Explorer I can see the drive sizes but I cannot see anything in any of the sub folders. I essentially have NO read access into any folder that SQL created and cannot see the owner of any the folders either.

I also tried uninstalling and pre-creating the folders and selecting them during the install. Same result. Am I supposed to have to now go in and change the permissions somehow so I can see the subfolder contents? Every other server I have I can open the folders as Admin and see either db, logs etc. I don't seem to have this issue with SQL 2008.

Thx

While installing sqlserver 2008 R2 it is showing that you are not valid user....I am using windows 8.1 OS

Thank You.

Hello Forum

My predecessor has installed an evaluation period of SQL Server 2012 to host some System Center Configuration Manager databases; however the evaluation period has just expired;and we do not have any 2012 licences.

We do however have 2014 Licences and media; would an upgrade to 2014 restore the Instance; or is there a way to extend the evaluation period?

A quick response would be gratefully appreciated as this is a Production Platform.

Please click "Mark As Answer" if my post helped. Tony C.

Upon opening an MSAccess database, I (and other users) get the error message "You do not have exclusive access to the database at this time. If you proceed...." . We actually have to acknowledge several of these messages to finally get to the main menu of the database, at which time it works fine. When only one user is using the database, the error doesn't appear.

The database is on a server, and has several users, all connected thru a network. All users open the same Access file to use the database. The database is split, with all of the tables being on SQL Server.

Further explanation of the error when it appears: "When attempting to open a database in Design View, or when trying to save design changes to a database object, you may encounter this error message. Access requires an exclusive lock on the database to make design changes on some object types. This error indicates that Access has not obtained an exclusive lock on the database...." {there is more in the explanation}

All this happens on opening the database - no design changes are underway, and the database is not opening in Design View. I have verified that none of the other users is open in exclusive mode. No objects are being updated (although data might be being changed). I am the only user that can get to the navigation pane, and I never do that while other users are on the system (I do it at night, when all users are absent). Is there some way that one of the forms or tables or queries has retained an opening that locks the db? What are some possibilities that might throw this error?Is it because of the update to Access 2013 (which occurred some time ago, but the problem has only arisen recently)?

Incidentally, on the same server, I have 3 other Access-SQLServer split databases, all with multiple users, all users using a single Access file in each db, none of which have this problem. The main difference between the problem database and the others is the heavy use of VBA instead of macros to perform actions – is there something in VBA that might cause the error?

I have seen solutions on some forums that indicate that giving each user their own copy of the front end database will resolve this – but that would be a monstrous task for me, since the databases are frequently modified with new reports, calculations and features.

Can you help me find the problem that throws this error?

Hi everybody,

My colleague developer is saying that starting recently she is getting errors about losing connections from our VFP application. I think it may be related with one of the latest Windows Updates, I saw a recent thread on the topic but could not find it (if someone has a link to that thread, it would be great).

What should I do to help her out?

I am personally having BSOD after most recent Windows Updates. I'm working on that problem now using this link

Hello all,
I have Windows 2k8 Server R2 Std

with SQL Server 2k8 Std installed.
All fully patched and updated, even optional patches.

I have installed the patch for TLS 1.2 to work for SQL Server (KB3144113), and the SQL Server service is running fine.  no issues.  So I assume since I disabled TLS 1.0 and 1.1 that it is working fine with TLS 1.2.

No I am using .NET Framework 4.5.2, so I installed the ADO.NET client rollup (KB3099845)
Check the registry and it reflects for .NET 4.5.2 version 4.5.52333

But I can no longer use SSMS to connect to the instance that is running on the server.
I Have verified that the registry keys that are needed are in place for both Client and Server to use TLS 1.2

I have another DB Server with the same OS and SQL Server installed on it, and it appears to be working fine.

Any ideas why I cannot connect to the SQL Server instance?
If you go to the KB3135244 page, under "Known Issues"
I am basically seeing a combination for Issue 1 and Issue 2.
When I attempt to login to the SQL Server instance using SSMS, I get the error that is in Issue 2.

Thank you for your time
