Cannot Disable Named Pipes
I have an installation of SQL Server 2022. I have a named instance.
When I set the port to a non default port, I cannot disable the named Pipes (SQL Server cannot start).
When I change the port to the default port 1433, the named pipes can be disabled without any issue. Is this correct?
- olafhelperBronze ContributorI wonder, because for a named instance the named pipes protocoll is disabled by default.
But why do you want enable/disable NP?- ConPanCopper Contributor

Disabling Named Pipes was requested from the vendor of the application.I am trying to understand what is exactly the issue. Probably the problem is not the named instance, but the Virtual Computer Name given to the instance.
