BUG# NT: 11590 (6.00) BUG#: 225126 (Shiloh_bug)



SYMPTOMS
When you perform an unattended installation of Microsoft SQL Server version 6.0, the Setup Initialization File allows you to specify an alternate pipe in the [Network] section. However, after the Setup program completes successfully, SQL Server will be still listening on the default pipe.



CAUSE
During setup, SQL Server is configured to always listen on the default pipe. The default pipe is \\.\PIPE\SQL\QUERY.



WORKAROUND
Specify the default pipe in the Setup Initialization File in the [Network] section. After installation, configure SQL Server to listen on an alternate pipe by going through SQL setup and changing network support option.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



MORE INFORMATION
For more information about writing the Setup Initialization File refer to Knowledge Base article 136491.
