I have installed SQL Server 2008 Management Studio Express 32 bit. I have installed it successfully but when I try connect with SQL Server I am getting an error
Then I thought to turn the services ON from SQL Server Configuration Manager but I am not able to see any
Also my SQL Server Configuration Manager shows some corrupt as below:
Download and install SQL Server database engine. Here is the link https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/sql-server-downloads
Express edition will be good.
Although this question was posted two years ago, most of the new developers face this problem. I had the same issue and I hope this will help other developers as well.
