Can't find SQL Server 2012 Configuration Manager

In my Win8 I can't find SQL Server Configuration Manager.
I need to connect to an SQL Database using a specific port.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks a lot!!

Hi Lina,
Did you install multiple SQL Server instances on your local server? We can not configure SQL Server 2012 instance under SQL Server 2008 R2 Configuration Manager.
If you had installed SQL Server Configuration Manager with SQL Server 2012, you can try to run "sqlservermanager11.msc". If this is not opening then you might not install SQL Server 2012 Configuration Manager.

  • Services of 2nd instance disappearded from SQL Server 2012 Configuration Manager but still running

    We recently configured multiple SQL Server 2012 R1 (two-node) clusters. Some with two instances. However, we discovered later that the Configuration Manager only lists the services of the 1st instance (the default MSSQLSERVER instance). The other named instance
    is still running and can be failed over from one node to the other using Cluster Failover Manager but the services are not showing up in Configuration Manager in any of the two nodes.
    Any thoughts as to why we see this odd behavior and how to fix it? We have done two instances before in SQL Server 2008 R2 but never saw this behavior.
    Thanks,
    Omer

    Please see my answer above about the SQLCM version. We use the highest.
    As I said before that this happens only when we have two instances running in a SQL2012 cluster. We configured 7 SQL 2012 clusters. three of them have two instances but only the services of one instance are displayed in CM. Services of the default instance
    are listed in two of these clusters while services of the named instance are listed in the 3rd one.
    One thing to note about these configurations is that the installer could not bring the services at the end of installation online because it did not have permission to create the computer objects in AD during setup thus we had to follow a known workaround
    that involves having the domain admin fix these permissions and then we were able to add the SQL Agent Service to the cluster and bring the services online after modifying the ConfigurationState key value of each instance in the registry.
    The installer account is setup as a local admin and we asked the domain admin to give it "Read All properties" and "create computer objects" in AD but for some reason it does not seem to have the ability to create these computer objects during installation
    and the objects are to be pre-created and their permissions reset afterward.
    I am giving this information and I am not sure if it has anything to do with the fact that SQLCM is listing the services of one instance and not the other.

  • Can't Install SQL Server 2012 in Windows 8.1 Pro

    I have Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate installed on my unit.
    I tried installing SQL Server 2012 and it failed because I don't have the SP1 for VS2010.
    I installed SP1 successfully, but now I can't install the SQL Server 2012.
    Error says: Managed SQL Server 2012 has stopped
    I have scanned many forums but cannot find the answer.
    I have .Net frameworks 3.5 and 4.0 installed in my laptop, still, no progress.
    Please help me with this. Thanks a lot.

    Check below thread seems to be similar issue
    You need to enable .NET Framework 3.5 using Control Panel
    Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn on or off features.
    Install or enable PowerShell 2.0 also.

  • Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager

    Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager?
    when I check on Microsoft site it says
    Reports are not upgraded when you upload a report definition file directly to the report server
    or SharePoint site. Upgrading a report definition in SQL Server Data Tools is the only way to upgrade the .rdl file.
    When you open an .rdl file in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), if the report was
    created for a previous namespace, Report Designer automatically creates a backup file and upgrades the report to the current namespace.
    This is the only way you can upgrade a report definition file.
    Now here is another confusing statement which says
    You can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server
    2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. The report server stores the report definition file in the original format. The report is automatically upgraded the first time it is viewed, but the stored report definition file remains
    unchanged.
    All I want to know is if I deploy a rdl made in 2008 r2 to 2012 will it work on the report manager of
    2012?
    <o:p>
    </o:p>

    I have tested this fucntionality and can confirm that ssrs 2008 r2 reports work when you deploy them on new ssrs 2012 report manager .
    No Migration is required .
    I didnt even moved report server dbs .All I did is just deployed reports on the report manager and it worked .
    "You
    can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server 2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. "
    Microsoft needs to correct this the documentation is misleading

  • How can I uninstall SQL Server 2012 SP2

    I have installed the SQL Server 2012 RTM and then SQL Server 2012 SP2 on top. I was under the impression that the "Programs and features" would allow me to uninstall the SP2 if necessary. There, I couldn't see any SQL Server 2012 SP2 but all
    the components at the 11.2.5058 level, i.e. Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Setup? So, does it mean that I have to uninstall all components on the list from 11.2.5058 levels and presume that everything will rollback to 11.2.2100...? Thanks.

    This is because you are looking at wrong place. Yes you need to go to add remove program but when you open that page there is no information about SP/CU updates. On top left side you need to click on
    View installed updates and different screen would come there you can find SQL Server 2012 SP2

  • Can we use SQL Server 2012 Web Edition as a witness server in mirroring?

    Hi All,
    Can we use SQL Server 2012 Web Edition as a witness server in mirroring?
    Grateful to your time and support. Regards, Shiva

    Hi All,
    Can we use SQL Server 2012 Web Edition as a witness server in mirroring?
    Grateful to your time and support. Regards, Shiva
    As Per BOL
    We strongly recommend that the witness reside on a separate computer from the partners. Database mirroring partners are supported only by SQL Server 2005 Standard and later versions and by SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition and later versions.
    Witnesses, in contrast, are also supported by SQL Server 2005 Workgroup and later versions and by SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and later versions. Except during an upgrade from an earlier version of SQL Server, the server instances in a
    mirroring session must all be running the same version of SQL Server. For example, a SQL Server 2005 witness is supported when you are upgrading from a SQL Server 2005 mirroring configuration but cannot be added to an existing or new SQL Server 2008 or later
    mirroring configuration.
    A witness can run on any reliable computer system that supports any of these editions of SQL Server. However, we recommend that every server instance that is used as a witness correspond to the minimum configuration that is required for the SQL Server Standard
    version that you are running. For more information about these requirements

  • Setup closed with exit code: 0x84C40013 - Silent Install error - SQL Server 2012 express management studio SP1

    I am trying to create a silent installation package for SQL Server 2012 Express Management Studio SP1. (both x86 & x64)
    Prior to installation I have performed the following :
    1. Turned ON the Windows feature 'Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1' (I had read somewhere on the internet that this is required prior to installation)
    2. Installed Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0
    I am using the following command line to perform an unattended install :
    <EXENAME> /Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools 
    However, the installation fails abruptly.
    The application installs successfully with the following command line :
    <EXENAME> /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
    The error occurs only while attempting to install the application with the /Q switch appended.
    Please help.

    Hello Fanny,
    Thanks for providing the link to the SQL Server 2012 unattended install guide.
    However, I must highlight that I was running the setup.exe with "Run As a Administrator" option and still facing the issue.
    Anyways, I found out the root cause and I must say that it was a rather silly one.
    As I had stated previously, the following command line was causing the issue :
    <EXENAME>
    /Q /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=install /FEATURES=Tools
    I simply changed it to the following and it worked....
    <EXENAME>
    /QUIET /IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS /ACTION=INSTALL /FEATURES=TOOLS
    It so seems that everything must be in CAPITALS for this to work.

  • Can't find SQL Server Express application after install

    I have downloaded and install SQL Server Express on my new Win 8.1 laptop.  Installtion runs without any issues (no error messages displayed) and shows a successfull completion.  However, I can't seem to make any connections to the server.  There

    Hello,
    Do you search your computer already for the SQL Server programs installed by SQL Server setup? On
    the Start Screen, could you write the word SQL and see what the search can find on your computer?
    What version of SQL Server you installed? Depending of the version installed, could you share with

  • I can't see sql server express 2012 from ssms 2008 R2 -- what do I need to download?

    I'm running sql server 2008 R2 Developer on a win7 (pro) workstation.   I would like to keep this installation because it has SSRS and Analysis Server. But I was not able to attach a sql 2012 DB so I downloaded Sql Server Express 2012 (per the
    picture below - 1st option selected) and installed it.   Sql Server Express 2012 appears to be running -- per my services list, but I cannot see the instance in ssms 2008 R2. Do I need to uninstall Sql Server Express 2012 and then download another
    option (from the picture below)? How should I proceed so that I can have a working/workable instance of Sql Server Express 2012 that I can see in ssms (whatever required version) and also keep sql server 2008 R2?  which download should I select (from
    the picture below?
    Rich P

    Should I uninstall Sql server 2012 first?
    Rich P
    No you do not need to uninstall any thing
    >> Sql Server Express 2012 appears to be running -- per my services list, but I cannot see the instance in ssms 2008 R2.
    You need to just download SQL Server 2012 express management studio and use that to connect to SQL Server 2012. And use SSMS 2008 r2 to connect to SQL Server 2008 r2.
    This File :ENU\x64\SQLManagementStudio_x64_ENU.exe
    Although I guess SSMS 2012 express with SP2 would work just fine and you would connect to 2008 R2 database using that.
