As per the technote of IIS v11.5 the metadata bridge (Microsoft SQL Server Analysis and Reporting Services (Repository) bridge reference) doesn't support SQL Server 2014.
However, while using the IIS v11.5.0.1 there is an additional option of selecting the SQL Server v2014.
Could someone please verify whether the IIS v11.5.0.1 supports the reporting services of SQL Server v2014 or not?
SQL Server 2014 is supported in 115 fix pack 2. Please install the latest fix pack to have it supported.

We have an ASP.Net web application containing a number of Crystal reports that connects to our MS SQL Server 2012 instance. To increase security we intend to disable old ciphers (< TLS 1.2) on our database and web servers. Before I do that I need to make sure our Crystal Reports on our web server are able to connect to the DB server using a TLS 1.2 compliant connection. In order to do that I understand I need to install the newly released (2018) MSOLEDBSQL driver. I've now done that on my Dev environment and would expect to see a new type of connection in VS2013, Menu:Crystal Reports, 'Set Data source location...', 'Replace with:'.
But I DON'T. How am I to change the reports to use the new MSOLEDBSQL driver?
OR perhaps I don't need to install the new MSOLEDBSQL at all and can set the reports to use SqlNativeClient11 that should be TLS 1.2 compliant.
After installing the MSOLEDBSQL driver, you have a new "choice" for new connections. So, in the "Replace with", you need to set up a new connection using "Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server" - what you'd been using before for OLEDB, and which also still shows up in the list, is the "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server".
It's also possible to change a report's connection info programmatically at runtime. See this SAP article.
I am trying to configure BizTalk Server 2010 along with SQL Server 2008 R2 with SP3. I am able to configure Enterprise SSO and Business Rules Engine, but I cannot configure Groups. When configuring Enterprise SSO, it is able to successfully create the SSO Database along with their respective accounts (SSO Administrators and SSO Affiliate Administrators). But for Groups, it is only able to create the Administrative Roles (BizTalk Administrators Group, Operators Group, and B2B Operators Group). It fails when trying to create the Databases (BizTalkMgmtDb, BizTalkMsgBoxDb, BizTalkDTADb).
Here are a few errors I am getting from the log file:

BizTalk 2010 won't work with SQL 2013, which you have installed on your server. What seems to be happening is that BizTalk is connecting to the server, and the default instance is likely running on SQL 2013 (hence the message "Database x on server y is not compatible"). You have to configure BizTalk to connect to the correct instance, or set the default instance to be the SQL 2008R2 instance.
An ideal fix would be to remove SQL 2013 from the server. BizTalk makes very heavy usage of MessageBox and Management databases, and best practice is to have it on its own dedicated server (or servers).
If any way possible, the best way to setup for BizTalk Dev is VM with the entire stack, Windows Server, SQL Server, Visual Studio and BizTalk Server, all installed locally.
I have SQL Server 2008 R2 on my computer and I want to use data mining with this version of SQL Server. My question is how can I do this? Because I've read some where that I can use data mining in SQL Server evaluation edition. I can use data mining in SQL Server 2008 R2?.
And I have one other problem when I want to use SQL Server 2008 Data Mining Add-Ins I can't connect to SQL Server and displays this error message.
Unable to connect to server 'localhost'. Please make sure user '' has at least read permission to some database on the server.
First you should get SQL Server Data Tools which runs in Visual Studio.
You will need Analysis Services installed; if you don't have it just run the SQL Server installer again and look for the option to install it.
After that you can take a look at this post I wrote a few months ago:
http://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic480010-147-1.aspx
I wrote it specifically targeting the Neural Network models, but it contains details on several background steps you will need to do.
Finally - since you're using an evaluation version, you may want to just go for SQL Server 2012 (that's what I use, so I know it works).
I will pre-cursor this with the fact that I am NOT a DBA!
I am trying to set up auditing on an SQL Server 2008 R2 Standard edition, but the Audits folder is missing from the Security section.
Is this a version issue associated with the "fine-grained auditing" that is only in the Enterprise and DataCenter editions?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
According to Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2008 R2 auditing is only available in 2008 / 2008 R2 Enterprise / Datacenter.
According to Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2012 auditing has been split up in SQL Server 2012, so that basic auditing is now offered in Standard Edition.
So what you're seeing is expected: prior to SQL Server 2012, auditing was an Enterprise-only feature (outside of C2/CCC, which is just sp_configure stuff that is not exposed in Object Explorer).
I am using SQL Server 2008 on Windows Server 2003. I want to use a linked server to open a Visual Foxpro DBF file, using driver Microsoft OLD DB Provider for Visual Foxpro from SQL Server 2008 linked server feature.
When I establish linked server connection by using Microsoft OLD DB Provider for Visual Foxpro, to open a Foxpro DBF file, I meet with the following error, any ideas what is wrong?
Can not retrieve required data from this request (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Src)
Meeting exception when executing Transact-SQL or batch (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
Error from Microsoft OLD DB Provider interface "VFPOLEDB" of linked server "DBFServer", access is defined.
Can not retrieved required interface "IID_IDBSchemaRowset" from OLE DB interface "VFPOLEDB" of linked server "DBFServer"
(Microsoft SQL Server error 7399)

George
Check 'Allow Inprocess' on the VFPOLEDB provider:
See Cindy Winegarden's answer on http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/sqlreportingservices/thread/e54d20dd-b65b-4cff-9349-6499e6e069e2 for how to do it.
Edit: this is the relevant part of the answer:
Here's what Stepahnie posted to her thread in the
microsoft.public.data.oledb NNTP newsgroup on April 10:
"Finally, I found an option ' Allow inprocess' in linked server ->
providers -> VFPOLEDB in MSSQL2005. With enable this option, I can
connect to vfp with oledb. While diabling this option, it works only
50% with successful connection....
And I have another MSSQL2005 with the same setup (except the option
'allow inprocess' disabled), all the connection make to vfp is 100%
successful... "
I looked and found that, as she said, in Server Objects > Linked
Servers > Providers > VFPOLEDB > General tab > Provider options >
Allow inprocess. Also, you can change the InProcess setting with the
following code:
USE [master]
GO
EXEC master.dbo.sp_MSset_oledb_prop N'VFPOLEDB', N'AllowInProcess', 1
GO
