MSSQL Server 2005 Express issue

[gnetix]

Hi,

First of all, hi to the Plesk community (first post here...)

I installed MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. During the process, it updated the version that was previously installed with the Plesk installation.

I activated the TCP protocol as mentionned in the KB:

In Plesk (logged in as admin), i can see the MSSQL Service running but i can't register the new server since i can only choose "MySQL" in the dropdown menu "Server Type" (Server > Database Servers).

In the SQL Server properties (SQL Server Configuration Manager) the log on method is set to "Local service".

Is that ok?

Any help would be appreciated as i dont really know how Plesk communicate with the MSSQL Service.

Thank you!

Jonathan

Edit : I have Plesk 8.2 / Windows 2003 Web Server edition

Hi,

If you want to use MSSQL server you need to purchase additional license for Plesk.
At the license management page you can check if you have ability to use MSSQL server. I think, your license does not allow using it.
