Hi Guys!

I am trying to install Word Press with SQL SERVER 2014 without luck. I got the configuration screen while installing the WordPress and after entering the necessary information , phase2 is screen is showing as blank.

I have spend lots of time to figure out what is going on. Where is the issue but the problem is that word press is not giving any error message. There is no log file generated also.

Your response is highly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi sumitkrsingh,

In wp-config.php try setting this to true:
define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);

That should help see errors.

I also don’t know much about your server environment but check and make sure its compatible:

What would the name of the database be?
Struggling over here on this one part!

// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘wordpress’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘root’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ”); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this

“Currently, the official WordPress distribution only supports the MySQL and MariaDB database engines…” https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Alternative_Databases

The original poster is asking about Microsoft SQL integration.

Exactly.

@sumitkrsingh WordPress will not work with MS SQL SERVER any version. Don’t bother to try, it cannot work. You need to use MySQL as written here.
