Missing client protocols

Hello everyone,
I have a problem with one of my two SQL Server instances.

 

The client protocols are missing for one of the instances. You can actually add these there (see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/database-engine/configure-windows/configure-client-protocols?view=sql-server-ver16#ChangeDefault ) but unfortunately the Properties entry is missing (see image below).

 

I have never had this before. Does anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance,

Frank

    fpeters75 , and what's the problem with? You are on the server and looking for client protocoll; that doesn't matter.

    Start "cliconfg.exe" for separate client config.

      olafhelperHello,
      I was just wondering why the entries are not there. I've done a few SQL Server installations, but I've never seen the entries missing.

      And actually they should be there - they are on the other VM.

    Hey fpeters75,

    What version of SQL do you have installed? If you are using SQL 2022 then that native client 11 is not shipped with it.

    See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/native-client/applications/installing-sql-server-native-client?view=sql-server-ver15

      Hi SheldonS1760,
      tried this too, but did not work.
