BizTalk configuration troubleshooting - config

I am trying to configure BTS 2016 3.12.774.0 against SQL Server v 17.9.1. They are running on separate servers running Windows server 2016 64 bit OS.
The Enterprise Single Sign On database (SSODB) and the Business Rules Engine DB (BizTalkRuleEngineDB) get created but only to BRE is configured when I go into Biztalk Config.
I have had the servers rebooted but no change.
The Ent SSO Service does not exist in Services
User doing the install is in groups Biztalk Server Admin, Application Users, Server Operators and SSO Admin, Affiliate Admin all at the domain level.
Names of both servers are 13 characters.
Not sure what to look for in the configuration logs. I have searched for the words Error, Fail, Exception but there are none.
A new attempt to configure gave the following error:
Microsoft BizTalk Server Configuration Wizard ------------------------------ Failed to create the SQL database 'SSODB' on SQL Server 'servername10' (with SSO Administrator account 'SSO Administrators'). (SSO) For help, click: go.microsoft.com/fwlink/… ------------------------------ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: (0xC0002A21) An error occurred while attempting to access the SSO database. (SSO) For help, click: go.microsoft.com/fwlink/… ------------------------------ An error occurred while attempting to access the SSO database. See the event log (on computer 'servername10') for more details. (SSO)

There is no SQL Server v 17.9.1. That version number is one for SSMS.
BizTalk Server 2016 does not support SQL Server 2017. Hardware and Software Requirements for BizTalk Server 2016
Please post the error text, either from the little red X or the error log. There will always be an error. BT Config will never silently fail.

SSIS Deployment Error while deploying packages into SQL Server

I was Trying to deploy SSIS package from Visual studio 2019 into MS SQL Server 2016, I have been facing deployment error as shown below:
"“A .NET Framework error occurred during execution of user-defined routine or aggregate "deploy_project_internal": System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: A required privilege is not held by the client.”
After few hours of debugging found that the error is actually from SQL Server. SQL Server is unable to run the stored procedure from SSISDB "[catalog].[check_schema_version] ".
Hence we realized that there are certain privileges for the current service account on which SQL Server is running. Hence we have created a new local admin account and provided all privileges.
• As per Microsoft suggestion, we have added the SQl server service account & SQL server integration service account in the below Configs :
o Edited DCOM config properties and provided granted the Local Launch and Local Activation permissions for the below component services
 Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services 11.0, Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services 12.0 and Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services 13.0
o Further we extended permissions for both the service accounts as below :
 Log on as a service .
 Permission to write to application event log.
 Impersonate a client after authentication.
 Adjust memory quotas for a process
Below are the two group policies yet to be added :
 Bypass traverse checking
 Replace a process-level token
I would like to know if this resolves the issue and please suggest anything that we are missing here to resolve the issue.
After adding the New service account to the listed group policies, the deployment got succeeded.
I ran into this problem after a new Security Policy was put in place that broke WinRM (disabled "Allow remote server management through WinRM"). Even after rolling back the change I could not deploy SSIS packages. I finally fixed the problem by running the "Repair" SQL option from the installation disk and then restarting the server. After that deployments worked as normal.

Configuring TFS SQL Server Instance connecting Error

I am new to Team Foundation server and when I am configuring TFS for SQL Server, I am getting below error where TFS is not able to connect to the SQL Server instance where as when I connect to SQL Server it is connecting successfully. Both SQL Server and TFS are on the same server machine. Please advise
Error while clicking on Test Link
According to the error info, you need to make sure the TFS service accounts(which you started the TFS Installer) have permissions on the DB server.
Add the account in the list of logins in SQL Server side and retry
the previous operation.
Moreover, if Windows Firewall is on the TFS box, switch it off during the installation and try again. After finish the installation reopen the firewall.
For more details you could take a look at below similar issue:

TFS Configuration Error

I am facing a problem that when i try to configure my TFS it show me the following Error Message
Error
TF255049: A connection cannot be made to the server that is running SQL Server. Verify that you have entered the correct name for the server, including the instance name, that the server you are attempting to connect to is online, and that you have the required permissions to connect. If you are attempting to connect to the remote SQL Server instance, then verify that it is configured to allow remote connections, that TCP/IP protocol is both enabled and configured to use port 1433 (default), and that Windows Firewall does not block this port.
Check whether the SQL version is supported by the TFS version: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/setup-admin/requirements#sql-server
Check the permission of the account that you use, and make sure it belongs to SysAdmin Server Role.

I was running an upgrade from TFS 2018 to Azure DevOps 2020.
After the server restart, the Azure DevOps Server Configuration wizard opened.
I was logged in as the local machine administrator and got this error (TF255049: A connection cannot be made to the server that is running SQL Server...) when trying to connect to my SQL Server machine (to chose the configuration database).
I logged in as Network Administrator, started the wizard again and the SQL connection worked.
To restart the Azure DevOps Configuration Wizard again...
Open the Azure DevOps Administration Console and choose Configure Installed Features to open the Server Configuration Wizard...

Could not access the SSO database During biztalk runtime Configuration

I'm trying to test a migration of moving a BizTalk SQL Server from one server to another. Here are the details.
Currently it was all on a single server in a dev environment, BizTalk SQL, SSO and BizTalk runtime all on one server. It is a Windows 2008 R2 server with SQL Server 2008 R2.
What I want to do is split out the SSO Master secret server and BizTalk databases to a Windows Server 2012/SQL Server 2012 setup. So far I got SSO all setup on the new SQL server. I configured just the SSO portion on that server and all went well.
I then unconfigured the existing BizTalk Runtime and then went to configure again, using the new Windows/SQL Server/SSO in the configuration process.
All goes well up to the point where it tries to configure the BizTalk runtime. That being said all the database are created, SSODB, BizTalkMessageBoxDb, all of them. But when it goes to configure BizTalk Runtime, it hangs for a while and several of the following errors show up in both of the Server's logs:
Could not access the SSO database. If this condition persists, the SSO service will go offline.
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding..
SQL Error code: 0xFFFFFFFE
It shows up in the SQL/SSO servers logs first, then the Runtime server a few seconds later. Eventually the configuration times out and fails. I believe it's permissions related, but I can't seem to figure out what it would be.
Questions:
what permissions do I need to review?
would the fact that the new server is Windows 2012/SQL 2012 while the runtime server is Windows 2008 be an issue?
is there any way I can get more details on this error?
Edit to add both DTCPing and DTCTester pass with flying colours and I can connect to SQL via SSMS from the server. Firewall has been completely disabled for now in order to eliminate that as well.
How were your service accounts configured in the first environment? Typically a single DEV environment with everything on one box can be done by using a local account on that server. If you now split out your SSO onto another server (it doesn't matter if it's W2K12 instead of W2K8), you are going to have to switch your service account(s) and groups for BizTalk to Domain accounts.
In a multicomputer environment, BizTalk Server supports only domain groups and domain service accounts. Domain groups include Domain Local groups (not recommended), Global groups, and Universal groups. Built-in accounts such as NT AUTHORITY\LOCAL SERVICE, NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE, NT AUTHORITY\SERVICE, NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM, and Everyone are not supported if you want to configure BTS in a multicomputer environment.
Make sure your SSO is running as a domain account, and a member of an SSO Administrators domain group - and ensure this domain account/group combo is configured for the SSO system on the SQL server (instead of local accounts):
After that the SSO system you join from the BizTalk Server before configuring the runtime on BizTalk Server usually needs to be configured with the same domain service account for SSO:

Reporting Services Configuration Manager is not connecting, it is integrated in SharePoint 2010

I have a sharepoint 2010 portal with some dashboards and reports. No I have a permission problem, because I cannot view these reports.
I would like to have a look in Reporting Services Configuration Manager, but I cannot connect to the server where sharepoint and SQL server is installed. I enter the server name and press on find. It gives me the following error:
Unable to connect to the Report Server MYSERVERNAME.
By the way, I try to fix this problem:
AccessDeniedException: The permissions granted to user
'Mydomain\MyUserAccount' are insufficient for performing this
operation.
First off, you probably want to be using SharePoint Central Administration, not RS Configuration Manager. Also, RS Configuration Manager isn't where you'd manage access to report objects.
That said:
Try remoting into the host machine and running the tool locally on the server.
Ensure the proper ports are open for you to be connecting remotely (and that they SHOULD be open - there are very valid security reasons to block them)
Are you 100% certain you're connecting to the right address? Is it possible the SSRS service itself is on a different machine than the Sharepoint service and the SQL server?
