It explains that Jazler SOHO requires SQL Server or SQL Express to operate and access databases over the local network. The steps include downloading SQL Express, selecting a default instance during setup, enabling the SQL Browser service, and configuring mixed mode authentication and the 'sa' login password to 'jazler' to allow Jazler SOHO to connect and query databases.

Installing manually SQL Server for


Jazler SOHO
Jazler SOHO comes with an automatic installer of Microsoft SQL Server Express that has an
automated script to install it with the settings needed so Jazler SOHO can run smoothly with
it. Sometimes though there are more complicated situations where there might be the need
of some of these settings to be customized.

Example: Your administrator might need tighter security on your SQL server, or you cannot
install the default instance of SQL Server because it already exists for some other
application. Finally, for some unknown reason, our automated installation might be hitting
an unknown error.

So here we will explain to you the basic needs of SOHO so it can run smoothly with SQL
Server.

How to install – For Advanced Users

Before going to a step-by-step scenario, here is what you need to know if you can do
everything by yourself. Jazler SOHO needs SQL Server or SQL Server Express to operate.
Many features of Jazler SOHO automatically connect and query your SQL Server using ‘sa’ as
login and ‘jazler’ as password. SQL server must be set to mixed-mode authentication. If you
wish to have a different password, you must explicitly tell this to SOHO, otherwise it will not
be able to query for available databases in your LAN. Talking about LAN, you must
remember to open ports TCP-1433 and UDP-1434 on your windows firewall so SQL Server
will be visible to your LAN network for your workstations. IMPORTANT: If you are not
installing the default instance of SQL server, then you will have to check out the TCP and
UDP ports because they will be different.

How to install – Step by step

Download Microsoft SQL Server Express 2014 though the link provided from our clients
download page. This should be a compressed zip file Jazler_SOHO_SQL_Server_Setup.zip.
Before unzipping the file, right click on it and select Properties.

Click on the Unblock checkbox and then click


Apply. This ensures that the file is trustworthy and will be able to execute its installation
without any problems. Click OK and unzip the file with whatever archive program you have
(Windows, WinZip, WinRAR etc).

Go into its folder Media and then again into folder SQLEXPR_x64_ENU and click on
SETUP.EXE that has a green icon and wait for the installation to initialize.

Select “New SQL Server stand-alone installation or add features to an existing installation”
3

Accept the license terms and click next…

Feature Selection

The feature selection screen will have already selected the features that need to be
installed, so click Next again…
4

Instance Configuration

It is imperative here to select “Default Instance”, otherwise you will have to manually find
what ports are used by SQL Server to communicate in your LAN.

Click Next to continue…


5

Server Configuration
In the server configuration window, make sure that SQL Server Browser is set to
“Automatic” otherwise you might not be able to see other SQL Servers on your LAN.

If you are using Jazler in a non-English speaking country, you might need to check out if the
installer has automatically found your country language to install collation on SQL Server for
this language. Failing to do this will make SQL Server support only English, and search boxes
or local language songs and commercials will not be viewed correctly.
6

Database Engine Configuration


You must select “Mixed Mode” as Authentication mode and set the word “jazler” (in lower
case without the quotes) as password for the sa* account. This helps Jazler connect quickly
and query Jazler databases in your LAN.

*sa stands for System Administrator

Clicking Next will begin the installation, that might take some time.
7

This is the final screen you will have to see if the installation finishes successfully.

If there were problems during installation, please read carefully the results of what went
wrong. If you cannot solve the problem by yourself, please contact the Jazler support team
for further investigation.
