SQL server configuration manager error while opening (Solved)

Not getting SQL Server configuration manager in my windows search. 

Though we've installed SQL Server & SSMS on my local system (or some other server) but on windows search not getting the "SQL server configuration manager" or "SQL Server 2019 Configuration manager".

Even when we try to open the configuration manager console from its default location I'm getting the error

Default location: C:\Windows\System32\SQLServerManager14.msc

Its showing error like this:

SQL Server Configuration Manager
—————————
Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable. Note that you can only manage SQL Server 2005 and later servers with SQL Server Configuration Manager. 


Solution:

  • Open command prompt in admin mode. 
  • Run this command "mofcomp "%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft SQL Server\140\Shared\SqlMgmProviderXpsP2UP.mof""
  • Once it's get executed successfully, cmd will show success message something like this:

  • Now go to the default location of SQL Server configuration manager & let's try to open it, and it's opening smoothly

EFCore - Collate function

Search in SQL server query is generally case insensitive (by default or based on database level collation). Suppose we have an employees table with a row having first-name column value as "My-First-Name", so if we want to do the case-sensitive search we have to explicitly use the related collate: In EF 5 (currently in Release Candidate version [RC.2.20475.6]) Collate function got introduced which helps us to use our specific collation based search.  C# with EF5 code sample: var employeeCaseSensitiveSearch = _dbContext.Employees .Where(x => EF.Functions.Collate(x.FirstName, "Latin1_General_CS_AS") == "my-first-name") .FirstOrDefault(); A related database query will be something like this: T-SQL: Case sensitive search (use specific collation e.g.: Latin1_General_CS_AS) SELECT * FROM dbo.Employees AS e WHERE e.FirstName Collate Latin1_General_CS_AS = 'my-first-name' Some of the useful CSharp function which g...

Azure SQL - User management with Active Directory Group

To manage the user's roles we use Service Account on OnPrem/IaaS servers. We can use this service account on our SQL Server and accordingly manage users' permissions for the users who are part of this service account. Suppose we have an Azure SQL and we want to manage set-of-users permission shall we create each-and-every users' user profile in Azure SQL and set the permissions accordingly. Obviously, we will not .  If we've anything like Service Account (or Group) on Azure we could create the user of this GROUP on Azure SQL and set its permission/role. Here comes the Azure Active Directory Group to help us.  In case if our organization has some scheduled tasks to sync Active Directory (service account) to Azure Active Directory (AAD group), already in place, there will be some delay when we add a user to the Service account and get reflected in the AAD Group. If we have a requirement that as soon as we add a user to our group we wan...

Sometimes in the large project when we separate it in different repositories we need to take reference of one repository in another where some the sub-module concepts. Now if we move our submodule to a different repository or renaming its repo-path then we've to also update the repository where this sub-module is getting referenced. Let's see how to update the git submodule.  Step-1: First clone the repo Step-2: Open git UI to create a new local branch from master  Step-3: Open git bash -- Now run below command to (remove submodules & add them):  -- Remove submodule git submodule deinit YOUR_FIRST_REPO git rm YOUR_FIRST_REPO git commit -m "Removed submodule YOUR_FIRST_REPO" rm -rf .git/modules/YOUR_FIRST_REPO -- Add submodule git submodule add <<..YOUR_FIRST_REPO git URL>> Step-4: All good, let's push our changes to the master
