SQL Server Configuration Tools Disappeared

I know I used to have Server Configuration Tools, but when I just looked for it, it seems like it has disappeared. I'm looking at this.
I'm getting this login error.
I used to be able to reset SQL Server using the Configuration Tools, but now I can't reset it, and I can't login.
Please help!!
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

SQL Server Configuration Manager snap in not getting created by Microsoft Manager Console

I just installed SQL Server 2008 Express with Advanced Services. I want to enable FILESTREAM so I can install the AdventureWorks sample database. The instructions at this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645923.aspx say:
On the Start menu, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2008, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Configuration Manager.
When I open SQL Server Configuration Manager I get an error message: "MMC could not create the snap in, the snap in might not have been installed correctly. Name: SQL Server Configuration Manager." Then it gives me a CLSID.
On this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174212.aspx it says: "Microsoft Management Console (mmc.exe) uses the SQLServerManager10.msc file in the Windows System32 folder to open SQL Server Configuration Manager."
I looked in the System32 folder and, sure enough, the file SQLServerManager10.msc is in there. It's XML inside the file.
Please help. I really need to get this SQL Server Configuration Manager working so I can enable FILESTREAM data and install the database. I appreciate any help you can give.

I'd try this first;
Go to the Run from the Start menu and type mmc and press enter to open an empty console. Under the File menu select "Add/Remove Snap-in". Click "Add" under Console Root and select the "Microsoft SQL Enterprise Manager" snap-in. Close windows until you are back to the mmc, and you can rename the "console1.msc" to default name which is "SQL Server Enterprise Manager.MSC" and save it under C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn (Default location of SQL Server 2000) - Obviously you want your 2008 installation folder and unfortunately I don't have it so I couldn't point you to it... http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/

Broken dropdowns in SQL Server Configuration Manager

I recently installed a new virtual VMWare machine for development purposes. The machine has Windows 8.1 (64 bit), Visual Studio 2013 and Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition, all with latest updates.
Today I wanted to create a new Alias in the SQL Server Configuration Manager. I have previously done this for MS SQL 2012 on Windows 7 32 bit and it was straight forward. But on Windows 8.1 I was unpleasantly surprised. All dropdowns in SQL Server Configuration
Manager properties are broken - they are narrow and do not display any options. Here is a screenshot:
I thought that only the Protocol dropdown is broken, but I noticed the same issue with other dropdowns, even for simple Yes/No values:
I've heard from some people that some programs render broken on Windows 8 (one example was Office Live Meeting which has cropped configuration dialog) but haven't seen something like this before.
I asked some of my work colleagues and two of them reported the same problem. In one case it's on Windows 7 64 bit, but this person says that some months ago he didn't have the issue. Maybe some Windows or SQL Server update broke it.
If it matters, I'm running it on a virtual machine with 1366x768 resolution and DPI setting is on 100%.
Somehow I managed to select values blindly using arrow keys and enter. This means the values are actually there but the dropdown does not render them at all. It feels so awkward to be unable to see what I'm selecting.
Product versions are as follows:
SQL Server Configuration Manager: 2011.0110.2100.060
SQL Server: 11.0.3128.0
What is wrong with these dropdowns and how do I fix them?

Hi,
I was able to reproduce this issue on my machine as well. It has SQL Server 2012 SP1 and Windows 8.1 installed.
The issue happens when I add the SQL Server Configuration Manager as a snap-in to MMC.exe. It works fine if I launch the SQL Server Configuration Manager from the shortcut which installed by SQL Server in the Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft SQL Server 2012\Configuration
Tools folder.
To get around this, you need to launch the SQLServerManager11.msc in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 rather than C:\Windows\System32. Use the below command:
MMC %windir%\syswow64\SQLServerManager11.msc
The issue has been reported on Microsoft Connect:
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/747902/configuration-manager-snapin-dropdownlists-are-broken-empty-and-gray
Sorry for the inconvenience you have experienced and thank you for your understanding and continued support.
Thanks.

SQL Server Management Tools - Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Error code: 1406

Detailed Results:
Feature: Management Tools-Basic
Status: Failed
Component Name: Sql Server Management Studio
Component Error code: 1406
Error Description: Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
The first time the installer worked installing perfectly, but I needed an named instance of "SQL2008", so I removed the instances. After this re-installing is not working.
From past 3-4 days I went through most of the links which has provided solutions for error code 1406, and not having success for installing.
I have tried these options,
1) Ran the installer using "Run as Administrator"option. I am an Administrator user for the machine.
2) In Registry Editor, right-click HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software, and then click Permissions. Click Add, type Everyone, and then click OK. Under Group or user names, click Everyone. Under Permissions, click to select Full Control in the Allow column, and then
click OK.
3) Uninstalled the Sql server product, and used Revo Uninstaller / CCleaner to clean the registry and the remaining files and folders.
4) Multiple versions of SQL installers have been tried (SQL 2008/2012/2014)
5) Logged in as local/Administrator for the machine, tried the similar steps.
6) The same installers are still working in one of the virtual machines for multiple times of installation and uninstallation without having any problems.
Please let me know, if needed further information. Please provide help for installing SQL server management studio.

Ananth.

I have the same problem.
I can not install MSSQLManagementStudio. I suppose
that is not the fault of permissions

account after the removal of the domain.

SQL Server Configuration Manager

Hello,
I have a SQL 2008 SP3 install on Server 2012. It is clustered active/active. When opening SQL Server Configuration Manager > SQL Server Services, I receive the following message: The server threw an exception [0x80010105]
I have tried restarting WMI and this didn't resolve the issue as many posts and blogs have suggested.
I found this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2849344 but it only applies to SQL Server 2008R2 not 2008 that we have installed.
It states to grab a msclus.dll out of %windir%\syswow64 on a Windows 2008R2 box. A 32bit msclus.dll file or a 64bit file does not exist on a 2008R2 box in this directory. There is one in %windir%\system32 directory but the article clearly states
it exists in the Syswow64 folder.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
zWindows

Hi zWindows,
According to your description, the msclus.dll does exist in %windir%\system32 directory in your Windows Server 2008R2. I check this file in my cluster environment, it does exist in %windir%\winsxs directory. Personally, it belongs to system files, and maybe
saved in different system path due to the system version and bit. The different path will not affect to copy this file to the related directory. Then, register this .dll file on each node of the cluster.
About this exception [0x80010105], we need to verify if you change service account to a new domain user by SQL Server Configuration Manager in a clustered SQL Server instance. If yes, you need to ensure that Everyone is added to "Remote Launch" and "Remote
Activation" DCOM permissions, and new domain user account have read rights in WMI.
For more information about exception 0x80010105, you can review the following article.

SQL Server Configuration Manager 2008 - Slow to bring back SQL Services

HI
WMI queries are taking ~ 1 minute to bring up SQL Server services using the SQL server Configuration manager 2008. The cluster is a two node cluster with ~ 6 instances installed. Each node is running Windows 2008 R2 64 Bit and has been configured
according to best practice guidelines.
Do I need to re-build the WMI repository on each node in the cluster? Are their any associated risks?
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Cheers
Rob

Hello,
As already noted, this invokes WMI. I would start there and check to make sure the WMI processes aren't bloated or otherwise running out of memory or handles. I've had issues with this when running with things like IBM Director and Tivoli products that have
large numbers of WMI queries. This blog post may also help you getting started:

SQL server configuration Manager - WMI error.

I'm having an issue accessing SQL server configuration Manager on windows server 2012 64 bit.
Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable. Note that you can only manager SQL server 2005 and later servers with SQL Server Configuration Manager. Class does not exist. [0x8070583].
Any solution or workaround would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, the link you provided discuss the same issue but for a different class number, Invalid class [0x8004100]
The error I got is for Class [0x8070583], do you know if the proposed solution work for both classes?
Thanks again.

Hi sql393,
Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable. Note that you can only manage SQL Server 2005 servers with SQL Server Configuration Manager. Invalid class [0x80041010].
The solution is to go to a command prompt and then run mofcomp.

Sql Server Configuration Manager fails to start

Hi,
My Os is Windows 7 Enterprise.
I have Sql Server 2008 Developer Edt. with sp1
and Sql Server 2005 express (which comes with Visual Studio)
When I try to open Configuration Manager it fails:
Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable. Note that you can only manage SQL Server 2005 and later server with SQL Server Configuration Manager.
Invalid class [0x80041010]
I've tried everything I could find on the net. But none of them worked for me.
Later, I realised that the file called "sqlwep-uni.mof" under "c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.INSTANCENAME\MSSQL\Binn" has failed with mofcomp command.
Microsoft (R) MOF Compiler Version 6.1.7600.16385

MOF file has been successfully parsed

Error Number: 0x8004100e, Facility: WMI
Description: Invalid namespace

Any suggestions?

I think this can be fixed by parsing / registering the sqlmgmproviderxpsp2up mof file.
Have a look here - http://blogs.msdn.com/echarran/archive/2006/01/03/509061.aspx
Thanks, Leks
That was the first thing I tried :)
I've also tried this: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sqltools/thread/468b8484-2729-4a06-bfc3-efe54507dcb6
and this: http://msmvps.com/blogs/martinpoon/archive/2009/11/27/sql-server-configuration-manager-cannot-connect-to-wmi-provider-invalid-class-0x80041010.aspx
and that: http://www.nucleustechnologies.com/Repair-WMI-Services.php
and some other stuff I could find.
At least I've tried to repair Sql 2008 installation. But it also did not work.
Lastly I've uninstalled all the instances and components related with sql. And I renamed the folders (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server and the hidden folder C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server) and made a clean install. Voila, it worked!
But the "Sql Server Configuration Manager"s icon has gone somewhere :) Anyway it works fine now.
I had to do that because I have a project to finish.
Poor Microsoft!

SQL Server configuration manager is empty

Hi. I am getting a timeout when I try to start SQL Agent on my local machine. I went to the Configuration Manager to investigate but the box is empty except for SQL Server Browser. Shouldn't all of my services be listed here? (Integration
Services, SQL Agent, etc)? I attached a screenshot for a reference.
While I have this question opened, can someone help me with why I can't start SQL Agent? I am getting a "timeout" error. I've been able to start SQL Agent in the past. The only thing I did was install SP2 for SQL Server 2012.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Craig

Hi CBLEV,
Please follow the steps in this
blog to troubleshoot the issue that SQL Server Configuration Manager is missing services.
When SQL Server Configuration Manager works properly, please start SQL Server Agent Service from it. If you still fail to start SQL Server Agent Service, for further analysis, please help to post the full error message from SQL Server ErrorLog and Windows Event
log.

SSIS: To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install SCR - DP1 Connections of Integration Services or higher

We have SSIS installed on a machine that is not part of a cluster but it is accessible by the cluster.
Our job we have running on the cluster is failing with the following error:
Error: 2014-01-31 09:14:37.52 Code: 0xC000F427 Source: SCR - DP1 Connections
Description: To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install SCR - DP1 Connections of Integration Services or higher. End Error
Any advice or information on how to resolve this would be great.
Many Thanks.

Hi NessaBella,
Integration Services service is not a cluster-aware service, and does not support failover from one cluster node to another. Therefore, in a clustered environment, Integration Services should be installed and started as a stand-alone service on each node
in the cluster.
Based on the error message, it seems that SSIS is not installed on the cluster node on which the job was running. Although SSIS is installed on a machine that is not part of the cluster and can be accessed by each cluster node, the SSIS service installed
on a remote server cannot be used a cluster node. So, please install the shared feature SQL Server Integration Services on each cluster node. Besides, if certain packages need to run in 32-bit mode in certain jobs and the SQL Server installed is 64-bit version,
you also need to install BIDS/SSDT on the cluster node to get the 32-bit runtime of SSIS.
