If you are planning to install the Redbex Application Server on a different computer than the Redbex Application Server database you have to allow TCP/IP access for the SQL server. SQL Server versions previous to SQL Server 2014 did enable TCP/IP access by default, starting with the 2014 version TCP/IP is by default disabled!

To enable the TCP/IP protocol in SQL Server 2014, follow these steps:

1.Open SQL Server Configuration Manager

2.Expand “SQL Server Network Configuration” and click on “Protocols for MSSQLSERVER”

3.Right click on TCP/IP and select Enable

4.Click OK on the Warning that the service will have to be restarted

5.Click on SQL Server Services

6.Right click on SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) and choose Restart
