Hi Guys,
I just now installed the free edition of SQL Server 2014 (Management Studio only edition).
During installation I was not allowed to provide an instance name. Post installation when I am trying to connect the server using the management studio it fails consistently.
I have tried using LocalDB, (local), SQLExpress and all other combinations (machine\LocalDB) etc.
When I open the SQL Config Manager there "SQL Server Services" has no entries.
Can someone help me in getting the server name to connect to?
Regards,
HTH, Krishnan
