Tag: Microsoft SQL Server 2022

This article is part of the series on How To Install Microsoft SQL Server 2022; I do not claim to be an expert on SQL Server and this series is installing SQL Server in a development/testing/demo environment. If you’re installing SQL into a production environment there will be additional work required to harden the SQL Server and avoid security issues.

In the last article, I covered the installation of SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS); however, if, like me, you are using a named instance of SQL server, the standard installation of SSIS does not result in a working instance of SSIS.

There is a setting which needs to be changed in a configuration file to point SSIS at the working instance of the SQL Server Database Engine.

The file to change is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\160\DTS\Binn\MsDtsSrvr.ini where you need to change the ServerName node to include the name of the SQL instance.

In the, above, example, I have added \Development for the named instance I am using.

SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is the final feature I will be installing and is, again, one on the main SQL Server installation media.

Launch the setup utility, change to the Installation tab and click on New SQL Server standalone installation or add features to an existing installation link:

While I no longer work with Microsoft Dynamics GP, I am still cognisant of an error which occurs when deploying the GP SSRS reports. Because of this, I still generally make the required fix, just in case I work with a product which does similar and I can pre-emptively make sure I don’t get the error.

The setting, for SSRS 2022, is in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services\SSRS\ReportServer\web.config:

The highlighted section, above and below, needs to be added to the file on the httpRuntime line:

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="9000" requestValidationMode="2.0" maxRequestLength="20690" />

Once the section has been added, restart SSRS.

With SQL Server reporting Services (SSRS) downloaded and installed, the next required step is to complete the configuration. There are a number of steps to go through.

To configure SSRS do a search on the Start menu for Report Server Configuration Manager; it will default with the name of the local server, so all you need to do is click Connect:

Once you have the correct version of SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) downloaded install it by launching the installer.

On the Welcome page, click the Install Reporting Services button:

SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) is, like SQL Server Management Services (SSMS), another feature of SQL Server which was split out into a separate download, but SSRS, unlike SSMS, is tied to a specific version of SQL Server, so the correct version needs to be downloaded.

The latest version of SSRS for SQL Server 2022 is available to download here (you can toggle the Version drop-down list for older versions of SQL Server):

in the last article of this series, I gave the download link for SQL Server Management Studio; once you’ve downloaded the installer, you can launch it and amend the Location if necessary.

Click Install to begin the installation:

An application, not listed as a feature of SQL Server, is SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). This is an integrated environment for managing any SQL infrastructure, from SQL Server to Azure SQL Database. SSMS provides tools to configure, monitor, and administer instances of SQL Server and databases. You can use SSMS to deploy, monitor, and upgrade the data-tier components used by your applications and build queries and scripts.

It is an invaluable tool for working with SQL Server; it used to be packaged as part of the main SQL Server installation media download, but was separated out a few years ago to allow for more
regular updates. It will work with any version of SQL Server, so you just need to get the latest version.

The latest download is available from here:

The first feature to install is the SQL Server Database Engine itself; launch the setup utility from the downloaded media, select the Installation tab and click on new SQL Server standalone installation or add features to an existing installation:
