I am unable to access Sharepoint Central Administration.
I installed MOSS 2007 successfully on Windows Server 2008 (IIS7 and SQL Server 2005), I launched the admin and got "Cannot connect to the configuration database" error.
Application pool is using NetworkService account which has access to SQL Server.
I can access the configuration databases through SQL Management Studio. SQL server is on the same machine.
Any help, suggestions on how to solve the problem? I am very new to SharePoint.
Maybe try running the SharePoint Products and Technologies configuration wizard again to see if that highlights what the issue might be.

When I try to deploy my artifact on IIS, I am getting the error as shown in the below screenshot. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
The "IIS Web App Management" screenshot is shown below:
The error message is pretty clear: You can't use it to install IIS on a client OS (such as Windows 10). You have to use a server OS (such as Windows Server).
There's nothing you can do about it other than to use a server OS or use an alternate tool to deploy.
Using Windows Remote Management (WinRM), connect to the host
machine(s) where IIS or SQL Server is installed, and manage the Web
application or deploy the SQL Server Database as described below:
Create a new website or update an existing website using AppCmd.exe.
Create a new application pool or update an existing application pool using AppCmd.exe.
Deploy a Web Application to the IIS Server using Web Deploy.
Deploy a SQL Server Database using DACPAC and SqlPackage.exe.
Your log mentioned the task was installing IIS, and it seemed the tasking was installing IIS on a windows client OS. You need to check your target machine to see whether it has IIS installed.
I have a Team Foundation Server 2013 installed on a server on a domain. I can connect to this server from my domain account using VS 2012.
I also have a virtual machine which runs on Windows XP and NOT part of the domain (login as a local user). I have a VB6 project running on this VM and I want to connect to the TFS to share and control my VB6 code but I keep on getting The Request Failed with HTTP status 404: Not found.
I tried creating a local user on the server with the same name as the user I use for VM but it didn't work. I cannot join the VM to the domain as well.
Hope someone has tackled this and shed me some light.
After DCpromoing and then demoting the server that TFS runs on, we cannot use WSS ("Cannot connect to the configuration database") to manage team projects. I believe that if I could find the default permissions that are set up when TFS is first installed on a server that is joined to a domain - in terms of any service accounts that are created and which accounts various services should run as - I would be able to get it back up and running again. Does anybody know the default NT accounts and permissions for Team Foundation Server?
That error sounds like a SharePoint error. This technet article outlines the permissions (server, SQL, registry) that are required for a default WSS install.
Until last week, I developed with SQL Server 2008 non-R2 and my ASP.NET MVC web application worked fine in the Azure Compute Emulator. It establishes a database connection while running.
After switching to SQL Server 2008 R2 (deinstalled the non-R2 verson before), my web application can't connect to the database anymore when running in the Compute Emulator.
Interesting: When I start my application outside of the Azure Compute Emulator, it works!
The exception:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException was unhandled by user code
Message=Cannot open database "X" requested by the login. The login failed.
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE'.
Any ideas? Thanks!
I guess your connection string is with "Integrated Security=True" (or SSPI). Your old server was configured to grand access to the target DataBase for user "Netword Service", while your new R2 installation isn't.
Moreover, when you run your app under Compute Emulator, it uses IIS to run your web role, thus, the default app pool identity (Network Service). However when you run your application without the Cloud Project (Compute Emulator) it uses the Casini (AKA Web Development Server), which runs under the account used for Visual Studio (guess elevated version of your user account). And because your user account does have access to the dabase, your application also has.
I highly suggest drop off any "integrated security" connection strings, and use against SQL Server users when developing Windows Azure applications, that target cloud deployment. SQL Azure only supports SQL Server Authenticatin/Authorization.
I had the same problem, but after removing "Integrated Security=True" from my connection string in web.config the mvc-app could not connect either, this time because of an Entity-Framework error.
But fortunately this workaround finally solved my problem!
I'm a absolute newbie in MVC, and now I am standing the beginning of it.
I checked out the tutorial podcast, in which i got i can add a new item of SQL Server database under app_data. But once I click that, a msg popup to show that in my desktop, no SQL Server 2005 or 2008 Express was installed.
But in fact, I have a SQL Server 2005 Enterprise installed already. Why this happened? And how to add a SQL Server database if I got a enterprise version?
Thanks a lot.
Adding the database file to the app_data folder only works with SQL Server Express editions. There's nothing you can do to enable it for Enterprise versions.
If you have SQL Server Enterprise, you need to create your database and your db objects in that server (using SQL Server Mgmt Studio or Visual Studio) and connect to that server. You cannot put your MDF/LDF files into app_data with Enterprise version - it just won't work.
Or if you don't like this approach, you could always install SQL Server 2005/2008 Express on your machine and then use the "put your MDF file into app_data" approach with that Express edition.
