Cannot create SQL database. SQL Express server installed.

[Poooh]

Hi,

On our Plesk server I cannot create an SQL dabatase. The SQL Express Server 2005 is working and running, but I cannot create a "new database server" from the GUI.

As you can see from the attachments:

- SQL Express Server 2005 is up and running.
- Only have mysql running at the moment.
- Don't have the option to add another database server.


Do I need a special license to run SQL 2005 Express edition?

Is there something I'm missing here? Any addtional steps I should try?

Thanks,

for ms sql server ( any version ), you need the powerpack that will enable the mssql server. To me, it is amusing because mssql server module should be included in the plesk license automatically while mysql should be included in powerpack. The reason is that mysql is usually used in non window environment until these days.

mysql management feature is included in Plesk license by default. If you would like to manage MSSQL, you need to place MSSQL add-on. Please refer to this link:

As soon as MSSQL feture is added to Plesk license, you will be manage MSSQL on domain in Plesk Control panel.
