SQL Server Help,
I have recently installed SQL SERVER 2014 on my Window 7 SP1 Acer laptop.
I am trying to do a simple upload of an Excel file into SQL Server using the OPENROWSET command:
Which I found requires some configuration change I attempted below.
When I execute this:
-----------------------------
execute sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;
RECONFIGURE;
execute sp_configure 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', 1;
RECONFIGURE;
GO
-----------------------------------------
I get this message
-------------------------------
Configuration option 'show advanced options' changed from 1 to 1. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.
Msg 5593, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
FILESTREAM feature is not supported on WoW64. The feature is disabled.
Msg 15123, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_configure, Line 62
The configuration option 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' does not exist, or it may be an advanced option.
Msg 5593, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
FILESTREAM feature is not supported on WoW64. The feature is disabled.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I go to the SQL Server Services and Properties on the Server and try to change the FileStream options to be on..I get the error:
"There was an unknown error applying the FILESTREAM settings. Check the parameters are valid (0x80070002)."
Perhaps my issue is with the Windows Share Name: . I have put in a local driver C:\A_Excel....also the computer name, my user ID. Is there a special format or way to define a Share Name that I am unaware of?
Is there a way to fix this? Can I not load Excel files with a 64-Bit system? Or what is the easiest way that I can do this with my configuration?
Thanks for any help.
