How to install SQL Server 2017

By
Greeting everyone. I'm happy and excited to share that I've launched my YouTube channel with name SiddTechnolog on October, 8th.

I've started off from the very beginning of SQL Server i.e. installation. In this video I've showcased how to install SQL Server 2017 developer edition on Windows 10 based desktop machine. Not only I have shown options related to a desktop based installation but I've also tried to cover options you should be careful about when you do installation on a Windows Server based machine. Moreover I've also provided explanation on what and why we're choosing a given options.

So what are you waiting for, go over the video and exalt your SQL Server installation skills.

SQL Server: SQL Server services not starting. TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0x139f, status code 0x80. Reason: Unable to initialize SSL support.

Hi All, and welcome back. As the computing power and networking is increasing day by day so is the need of more safer and stronger encryption channel methods and algorithms. And we want our databases and database server to use the same as well. But sometimes implementing them may cause undesired results like SQL Server not coming online. In case you’re also facing the same issue or planning to adopt new TLS standards like TLS 1.2 and don’t want to such problems then you should go through this post. Problem: We may require to make changes like enabling higher level cipher suite TLS 1.2 and disable TLS 1.0 for better security of our servers. But in case you make this changes it can be possible that after restart the SQL Services refuse to come online and fails. If you check the SQL Server error logs you’ll get the below errors: Error: 17182, Severity: 16, State: 1. TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0x139f, status code 0x80.

Hello folks, and welcome back to this new post on Sidd's SQL Solutions. Recently I was working on regular SQL Server patching stuff, which often we have to do and I faced this odd situation on one of the server, which troubled me a lot.

The Issue: The odd situation or the issue I faced here was while installing S ervice P ack 2 for SQL Server 2014 on a server running with  Windows Server 2012 R2  OS. The setup starts up normally like others but gets stuck at “MsiTimingAction ” page and  simply refuses to progress any further . No matter how many times you restart the setup or your system\server it end up at the same stage. It seems to be a known issue, which was fixed in C umulative U pdate 2 of S ervice P ack 1 for SQL Server 2014. The system on which I was applying this patch was already running with CU8

So, it is a nice fine day and you’re in office doing your BAU. You got this new task of installing SQL Cluster (which you’ve probably done several times before) and after making all necessary arrangements and planning you started it. All went fine and then when the setup is almost done you got this strange error “Wait on the Database Engine recovery handle failed.” which ruins the rest of your day. No worries we are here to sort this out quickly for you. Problem Now the problem here is that SQL Server setup is able to install all the components but is failing for DB engine (and its group). You get the error pop-up stating the below error: “Wait on the Database Engine recovery handle failed. Check the SQL Server error log for potential causes.” It may also give some link, which unfortunately (may) not lead you to anywhere. And at the end your see crosses against DB engine and its dependent components. Let me first tell you that why you got this error. In every SQL
