SQL problem encountered when setting up SCCM

Hi all,
I am currently trying to setup a configuration manager primary site (as a stand-alone site) in a test environment. My SQL server has already been setup, with other components of system center 2012 (SCOM, SCSM, Orchestrator) relying on the same
SQL 2008 standard edition R2 SP2 server.
I have been unable to install SCCM itself though. lets say I am now logged into my SCCM server using a domain admin account called scadmin. I have used scadmin to install other components of system center. Under my SQL server, in management studio, scadmin
has rights of "public", "securityadmin", "serveradmin", "setupadmin", "sysadmin".
When trying to specify my SQL server, instance name, I encountered the following error.
Setup is unable to connect to SQL Server with the connection information provided. Verify the following:
1. The SQL server and instance names are entered correctly
2. The specified SQL server instance is not configured to use dynamic ports
3. If a firewall is enabled on the SQL server, inbound rules exist to allow connections to the correct ports
4. The account used to run setup has permissions to connect to the specified SQL Server instance
I have verified against the 4 mentioned points above:
1. Yes
2. My understanding is SQL server by default uses static ports, so mine should be static
3. No firewall involved, all servers are on the same physical machine, connected to a switch, Windows firewall off
4. Permissions as mentioned above.
I also went to check out the log file in the SCCM server, C:\ConfigMgrSetupWizard.txt
this is what i saw everytime i tried to click next in the setup
"Creating SQL connection to database scsqlserver\master on server SC-SQL-01.testdomain.com"
My SQL server hostname: SC-SQL-01
SQL instance: scsqlserver
i also noticed in the same log file that when I start the installation, there is an error saying
"Cannot not connect to SMS provider on local machine. Either it is not installed or access is denied.
Cannot detect SMS Type because either SiteServer, SqlServer or SiteServerName is empty."
is there anyone who might be able to point out what went wrong?

As you mentioned to check the “SQL Server Network Configuration->Protocols for Named_Instance (the
sql instance name you gave)" but I see the TCP\IP for the SQL Instance's (i.e. SQLEXPRESS as I selected Default) is Enabled. I have installed all Windows Server 2008 R2 Roles on the same system along with the SQL Server 2012 R2. Then I have also set the
Inbound and Outbound Firewall rules using gpedit.msc. Do you also have any idea why the SQL Server Agent service is not running. Other services i.e Windows Internal Database, SQL Server and SQL Server Browser are running fine. Please suggest. Moreover, its
also an Administrator account and thats the only account I use for logging in and installing everything on this system. Its not allowing me to attach the screenshots at this moment as it says it will first verify my account and then allow me but I dont think
it will be difficult for you to imagine this issue as you have seen this similar issue elsewhere.

  • Problem got when setting up Sharepoint 2010

    Hi,
    As Filter pack 2.0 is one pre-requisite of Sharepoint 2010, but when setting up this
    Microsoft Filter Pack 2.0 (KB2837594) 64-Bit Edition
    I get this 
    As I'm setting up Sharepoint 2010 on the server, BTW, can I use ASP.NET v4.0, instead of v2.0, mentioned below?
    Many Thanks & Best Regards, Hua Min

    SharePoint automatically provisions for IIS Application Pools that are .NET 2.0 only. If you manually changed them, you simply need to change it back via IIS Manager -> Application Pools, identify the pool in question, go to Basic Settings, and change
    from .NET 4 to .NET 2.

  • Problem encountered when using RKD_WORD_WRAP

    Hi all,
    I have encountered a problem when using RKD_WORD_WRAP. The problem is that the paragraph is not being formatted nicely when i try to printout in Smartforms.
    Eg is that I want to format this paragraph;
    "Text Conversion: Convert Text Formats
    The function module CONVERT_TEXT provides the
    following format conversion options:"
    However, when I output it out, the text was being displayed like this;
    "Text Conversion: Convert Text Formats
    The function module CONVERT_TEXT provides
    the
    following format conversion options:"
    The problem is that even though after the "the" word, although that line still has some spaces, thecorresponsing words just wont get concatenate to the 2nd line (as seen above).
    Is there any way to fix this?? Or is there a standard value to be use for the outputlens parameter so that the above situation will not occurs??

    Check the below program and output :
    report ztest_ytt.
    data input type string.
    data SWASTRTAB like SWASTRTAB occurs 0 with header line.
    start-of-selection.
    input = 'The function module SWA_STRING_SPLIT that you have said is not
    working successfully. It is still giving me the same problem where it is
    appending a new line where there is still enough space for the word on
    the current line'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'SWA_STRING_SPLIT'
      EXPORTING
        INPUT_STRING                       = input
       MAX_COMPONENT_LENGTH               = 100
      TERMINATING_SEPARATORS             =
      OPENING_SEPARATORS                 =
      TABLES
        STRING_COMPONENTS                  = SWASTRTAB
    EXCEPTIONS
       MAX_COMPONENT_LENGTH_INVALID       = 1
       OTHERS                             = 2
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
            WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
    ENDIF.
    loop at SWASTRTAB.
    write:/ SWASTRTAB-STR.
    endloop.
    This is output :
    The function module SWA_STRING_SPLIT that you have said is not working successfully. It is still       
    giving me the same problem where it is appending a new line where there is still enough space for      
    the word on the current line                                                                               
    Suppose you want to print 100 charcters in each line .. upto 95 charcters you have words perfectly the next will start at 97th ,so here word is <b>' Function'</b>
    so this word will not fit into that line since you have 4 charcters,Function word is containg 8 charcters,this word will come in next line.
    Check the program and give what ever input and see the results.
    Thanks

  • Problem encountered when join two remote tables in a materialized view

    I'm using oracle 9.2.0.6

    Any ideas? Or joining two table through a dblink for a mview is not allowed at all?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Sound problems encountered when copying and pasting

    Hi all,
    I've been running into a rapidly growing problem in Premiere Pro CS3.  I'm hoping someone can help.
    I've copied two clips -- both audio and video -- from two different Premiere Pro projects, but when I try to paste both clips into a third project, my audio files become badly screwy.  The sound completely drops out from one clip, and in the other, the sound speeds up, like an old record played at a high speed.  I have no idea what to do.
    My computer is a Dell Inspiron.  I've used the same load presets for all three projects: DV-NTSC Widescreen 48kHz.  I'm at a complete loss as to what's wrong.  Could someone give me a little insight?  Thanks everyone.

  • Problem encountered when installing ldif file

    I have installed SunOne Directory Server 5.1 on windows 2000 server.
    then, when I try to install one ldif file using ldif2db.bat , it always give wrong command format message.
    D:\Program Files\Sun\MPS\slapd-tcsch166-server>ldif2db.bat -i lifeSIT.ldif
    "Usage: ldif2db -n backend_instance | {-s "includesuffix"}* {-i ldif-file}* [-O]
    [{-x "excludesuffix"}*] [-Y keydb-pwd] [-y keydb-pwd-file]"
    can anybody advise on this?
    Or, u can directly mail me by [email protected]

    First you should install the latest version of the server i.e. 5.2 P4.
    In the commmand you also need to specify the suffix or the backend database so at minimal the command should be
    ldif2db.bat -n backend_instance -i lifeSIT.ldif
    Now by default the backend database is called "userroot" so the command becomes
    ldif2db.bat -n userroot -i lifeSIT.ldif
    Alternatively you can specify the suffix instead of the backend
    ldif2db.bat -s "dc=example,dc=com" -i lifeSIT.ldif
    I would also suggest that you read the documenation to fimiliarize yourself with the import process (this link is for 5.2)

  • Problem encountered when updating to ICS (4.1.B.0.587)

    So, I was updating my Sony Xperia Live With Walkman from GB (2.3.4) to ICS (4.1.B.0.587) with PC Companion this morning. Had 52% battery life and I followed everything that was instructed, but halfway towards the end it had and error.Therefore I tried updating it with SUS but the result was the same!
    Now when I tried to boot my phone up the boot aniamtion was just the SONY word, which is the ICS new boot animation. But the after that a picture of exclamation sign with a smartphone under it showed! I'm guessing that my old GB has been removed already and the new ICS was halfway installed. Now my phone couldn't be operated anymore and the advise given by sony support was to go to the nearest repair centre to get it done. IS THERE ANY OTHER WAY THAT I CAN FINISH INSTALLING IT MYSELF??? I don't wanna have a hassel travelling to the repair centre cz it's quite far from my house. ANY SOLUTIONS EXPERIENCED USERS, EXPERTS OR DEVELOPERS??

    You should not have discharged battery?
    You can try:
    Turn off your phone
    Remove the battery for a few minutes.
    Insert the battery.
    Phone no turn.
    Connect the charger (use original charger and cable).
    Charge the phone while turned off for about 5 hours.
    Then use:
    PC Companion (PCC) or Sony  Update Service (SUS)
    before  backup

    3 Steps are neccessary:
    1. Make sure the Windows Firewall Service on the SQL Server is running and set to automatic
    2. Add the SQL EXE as a Program Exception to the Firewall on the SQL Server:
    To add a program exception to the firewall using the Windows Firewall item in Control Panel.
    - On the Exceptions tab of the Windows Firewall item in Control Panel, click
    Add a program.
    - Browse to the location of the instance of SQL Server that you want to allow through the firewall, for example
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.<instance_name>\MSSQL\Binn, select
    sqlservr.exe, and then click Open
    - Click OK.
    From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc646023.aspx
    3. The last step neccessary, on the SQL Server, is to set File and Printer Sharing "on". When this is off, the following error occurs: "Network Path was not found"

    Dear Apple Support,
    Good day to you.
    This is to report the problem i encountered when i updated my Ipad mini to the new IOS 8.1..
    After the update my Ipad restart and after that it appears a picture that need to connect to itunes and need  to restore. So i connect it to itunes and wait to restore my ipad mini because it is not opening.
    After restoring it my ipad is now opening and it is like new that i need to set up again.
    I set up again until i reach the apple id and password.
    I put my below apple ID and password to unlock my ipad but it didn't work. The message i receive is "the apple ID cannot be used to unlock this Ipad.
    What will I do? Please help.

    Dear Leslie J.,
    Your Apple ID was used to sign in to iCloud and iMessage on an iPad mini named “Leslie Joye's iPad”.
    If you have not recently set up an iPad with your Apple ID, then you should change your Apple ID password. Learn more.

    1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
    2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
    Is your iPad working?

    Error code: MobileMe Services has encountered a problem and needs to close
    I get this mesage everytime i open Outlook and it slows down opening. This problem started when itunes updated. What do I do to solve this?

    Hi turingtest2 (you pass, BTW):  Thanks for the speedy reply.  MobileMe doesn't appear in the list of programs which can be uninstalled.  I tried the link you suggest: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall but when I tried to "Run Now", I get the error message:  " Troubleshooting cannot continue because an error has occurred... etc.... [code 80072F8F]"  So googled this error & found a tool called (80072f8f) Repair Tool   -  I'm leery to download yet more stuff from non-microsoft sites -- any recommendations?

  • Just setting up iCloud on my iMac, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number stil

    Just setting up iCloud on my iMac 10.9.2, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number still shows as number that the verification code is being sent, I prompt "Don't have access to this phone" and that's no help at all.  The only way I can sign out /off from iCloud is to uncheck everything that I wanted to keep in the cloud????
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
    Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages.  This should also sign you out of iCloud.
    Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
    If that does not work
    Skip the iCloud sign in
    Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
    Change your Apple ID to the old one
    Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
    Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
    Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password
