Fixing Unsupported Local Report Culture in SQL Server

ssmswindows 10

I am using Windows 10, language Serbian, SQL Management Studio 2016 and can't use Database reports because there is error:

An error occurred during local report processing Culture is not
supported Parameter name: culture 3072 (0x0c00) is invalid culture
identifier.

I try with different settings for Windows 10 – language (English), try with different settings for SSMS (English) but got same error.

Do you have idea how to solve this?

P.S. My Windows 10 system locale settings:

Get-WinSystemLocale
LCID       Name            DisplayName
----       ----            ----
9242       sr-Latin-RS     Serbian(Latin, Serbia)

I think 3072 (0x0c00) is an invalid locale ID, at least according to this. So this looks like a corrupted Windows installation, perhaps from a flaky disk (eg. a byte overwrite of a locale 0x0c1a, which is the code for "Serbia and Montenegro (Former)").

You can try changing the current locale from Control Panel.

Sql-server – Microsoft SQL Server Connection Coloring

Boiling down the question to the basics:

Q: "is there some way to set a policy or something on the Microsoft SQL Server instance itself that will cause any SSMS clients to be colorized?"

No. SSMS query color-coding is part of a client-side connection and that data is stored in the registry. You could theoretically export that registry setting and apply it to anyone in your company with SSMS, but it's not a trivial task for us database people.

I'd take that request to your sysadmins with Active Directory Group Policy administration duties and explain what you need. It's a fairly common type of request for companies that manage software deployments centrally. Unfortunately, it's not point-and-click easy, and you'll need to update the registry keys every time you add or rename a production server. These types of mass client deployments usually require change requests because modifying the Windows registry isn't something you want to be doing often.

SQL Server 2012 – Registered Server Window Missing Database Engine or Local Server Groups

In the folder %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Tools\Shell you should find a file named RegSrvr.xml. That's the file where Management Studio stores local registered servers. If the file is missing or corrupt, SSMS won't display anything.

In this case, you can create a new file and paste this:

This is what an empty registered servers file looks like in SSMS 2012. It should bring your SSMS back to normal.
