Hello,

I've been googling and reading for the past two days but cannot seem to find the information I need.

I recently installed SQLexpress on my windows server but have no idea how to get plesk to connect to it.

In plesk admin under server>>databases it asks for the admin login for the sql database but i have no idea what that information is.

I've tried various names such as admin and sa but it just wont connect.

So basically my question is:
1. How do i either see or modify what the administration login/password is for sqlexpress?

2. What would be the proper way of integrating it with Plesk aside from just enabling TCP/IP?

Really cant seem to find that simple information anyway, but maybe i'm just looking in the wrong places.

Thank you in advance for any and all replies.
