There is no Configuration tools for SQL Server - sql

Hi everyone!
I started to work on an old PRODUCTION server that i'm administrator on it.
The server is Windows Server 2003 with SQL Server 2005.
I need to configure the SSRS on this server but I can't figure out how to reach the Reporting Services Configuration.
I saw on Microsoft's support site the path of it (Click Start > Programs > Microsoft SQL Server 2005 > Configuration Tools > Reporting Services Configuration) but I don't have it on my server.
Is there are another ways of launching it ?
Thanks a lot!
Screen Shot of the server

Windows Key + R to open "Run". Type in "RSConfigTool"
That will bring up the Reporting Services Configuration utility, provided you have SSRS installed, of course.

How to add SQL Server Analysis Services instance?

I have installed SQL Server with SQL Server management, but when I want to go to the Analysis server instance, there is no one.
I checked the SQL Server management but there is no Analysis Services process to enable.
I went to the SQL Server 2019 setup to add the Analysis server feature but it's not showing to install.
What can I do?
Solved.
I had to do a clean install.
The screen shot in this link shows "Analysis services"
But, since it is missing for you, I am guessing, you have selected an different edition of SQL Server 2019 setup (Web edition, may be ?).
If you using it as Developer, try the developer edition of SQL 2019 setup.

After installing SQL Server 2014 Express can't find local db

I have downloaded and installed SQL Server 2014 Express
(from this site: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/products/sql-server-editions/sql-server-express.aspx#Installation_Options).
The problem is that I can't connect/find my local DB server, and I can't develop DB on my local PC. How can I reach my local server?
My system consists of Windows 8.1 (no Pro or Enterprise editions) 64 bits
Checking the configuration of SQL Server with SQL Server 2014 Configuration Manager tool, I see an empty list selecting "SQL Server Services" from the tree at the left. Below you can find a screenshot.
In the Windows Services list, there is just only one service: "SQL Server VSS Writer"
EDIT
My installation window of SQL Server 2014 is the following:
Most probably, you didn't install any SQL Server Engine service. If no SQL Server engine is installed, no service will appear in the SQL Server Configuration Manager tool. Consider that the packages SQLManagementStudio_Architecture_Language.exe and SQLEXPR_Architecture_Language.exe, available in the Microsoft site contain, respectively only the Management Studio GUI Tools and the SQL Server engine.
If you want to have a full featured SQL Server installation, with the database engine and Management Studio, download the installer file of SQL Server with Advanced Services.
Moreover, to have a sample database in order to perform some local tests, use the Adventure Works database.
Considering the package of SQL Server with Advanced Services, at the beginning at the installation you should see something like this (the screenshot below is about SQL Server 2008 Express, but the feature selection is very similar). The checkbox next to "Database Engine Services" must be checked. In the next steps, you will be able to configure the instance settings and other options.
Execute again the installation process and select the database engine services in the feature selection step. At the end of the installation, you should be able to see the SQL Server services in the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
I downloaded a different installer "SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services" and found Instance Features in it. Thanks for Alberto Solano's answer, it was really helpful.
My first installer was "SQL Server 2014 Express". It installed only SQL Management Studio and tools without Instance features. After installation "SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services" my LocalDB is now alive!!!
I have noticed that after installation of SQL server 2012 express on Windows 10 you must install ENU\x64\SqlLocalDB.MSI from official Microsoft download site. After that, you could run SqlLocalDB.exe.
Just download and install LocalDB 64BIT\SqlLocalDB.msi can also solve this problem. You don't really need to uninstall and reinstall SQL Server 2014 Express with Advanced Services.
Also, if you just installed localDB, you won't see the instance in the configuration manager. You would need to initiate it first, and then connect to it using server name (localdb)\mssqllocaldb.

I faced the same issue. Just download and install the SQL Server suite from the following link :http://www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=42299
restart your SSMS and you should be able to "Register Local Servers" via right-click on "Local Servers Groups", select "tasks", click "register local servers"

How to Get SQL Server Reporting Services to Install so that it Works

I found this link for SQL Server Reporting Services
SQL Server Reporting Services
In this they said go to SQL Server data tools and when I search I can't find so what I do for that?
And when I try to do that when I go to configuration tools in SQL Server 2008 R2 and click on
Reporting Services configuration manager then it show me error when I connect it show me error
Unable to connect to the Report Server HOME-PC
So here anybody can tell me how do I start using SQL Server Reporting Services?
You did not install SSRS correctly I am guessing as parts are missing. You can install SSRS through the SQL Server insall in a few different versions:
SSRS 2012 where and how to download
The download for Express(the free version) is here:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29062
Once you get a successful install there is a more SSRS centric tool than the services configuration. It is under All Programs>SQL Server (version)>Configuration Tools>Reporting Services Configuration Manager. You need to ensure that SSRS is fully working before developing for it. I wrote an article on deployment here that covers the bases:
How SSRS deployment works?
Checking that SSRS is actually up and working with correct permissions is half the fun of SSRS! ;)

How to install Bug Tracker .Net tool software in my System?

I have installed ASP .NET 2.0 MVC3, SQL server express 2005 and SQL server Management studio express 2005 and IIS 7 in my system. If I am opening the install_btnet file, and providing the SQL server details also it is not getting connect. It is giving error as Service unavailable. Any one suggest me how to install Bug tracker .NET tool in my system with examples.
Thank you.
First thing to check it that your SQL 2005 express instance is running and allowing remote connections. Open the Administrative Tools >> Services and look for the service called "MSSQLSERVER$SQLEXPRESS" and ensure it is started.
Next, open the SqlServer Configuration Utility (on the server or PC where SQL 2005 Express is Installed) Look for the Client Configuration Option and Select "Client Protocols".
Set TCP/IP to "Enabled" and you should now be able to connect to your SQL server.
Note that even if your BugTracker.NET install is on the same machine, it may still be using the network to connect to your SQL Instance.
Hope this helps,
Dave

SQL Server Reporting Service

I'm trying to set up a Report server on my local machine, but I cannot get past the Database Setup step in the Reporting SErvices Configuration Manager.
I have SQL Server 2005 on my machine, which runs XP SP3.
I have reporting services installed, and the service is running, but anytime I try to setup the Reports and ReportServer database, I get the following message:
The feature "Using other editions of SQL Server for report data sources and/or the report server database" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can you run the SQL Server Installation Tool.
Under Tools Select Installed SQL Server Features discovery report.
Tell us what this says.
