Running SQL Server 2022 Express edition on Windows Server 2022 with TLS 1.3 only
Hello there, I tried running SQL server 2022 express on Windows 2022 Server that had SSL and TLS 1.0-1.2 disabled. But couldn't start the SQL server. Got the following error. Can you please explain ...
svazdekis , yes, SQL Server 2022 supports TLS 1.3, see TDS 8.0 and TLS 1.3 support - SQL Server | Microsoft Learn
Do what the error message says, review Windows EventLog & SQL Server ErrorLog for more details.
olafhelper looks like SQL Server 2022 Express still requires TLS 1.2 or SSL. I get this error when starting the SQL server on a TLS 1.3 only 2022 server.
