SQL server does not listen on TCP/IP in Windows Server 2003

  • I install SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition in Windows Server 2003 but I can not let it listen on TCP/IP even the protocal is enabled. There's no error in logs.  Since it always run well without specific configuration after setup in Windows 2000 Server I thought TCP/IP is default setting, isn't it? How can I solve this problem? Thanks very much!

  • I realize this is not particularly helpful but I've installed W2003 twice now and both are working via TCP/IP.  Perhaps a conflict on the port, is something else running on that machine?

  • Did you install SQL Server as the default instance or as a named instance?

    If it is a named instance, it is probably not listening on the default (1433) port and UDP must be enabled on the network.

  • I use default instance. What steps should I take to let it listen on TCP/IP? Thanks.
