2013-07-29 14:44:37,864 [1] INFO ConfigWizard - ConfigureServices: encrypt the server name - errorMsg:This implementation is not part of the Windows Platform FIPS validated cryptographic algorithms. 2013-07-29 14:44:37,880 [1] INFO ConfigWizard - ConfigureServices: encrypt the database name - errorMsg:This implementation is not part of the Windows Platform FIPS validated cryptographic algorithms.
To resolve this issue, set the key to 0 (zero).
Caution! Refer to the Disclaimer at the end of this article before using Registry Editor.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\FipsAlgorithmPolicy]
"Enabled"=dword:00000000
This behavior occurs when the server has been hardened for security purposes. Validate the registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\FipsAlgorithmPolicy]"Enabled"= Dword:0000000x
If the enabled key is configured with the Dword 00000001, SQL Server and Reporting Services fails to connect to the databases and might display errors.CTX129060 - Provisioning Services Server Console Fails to Connect to Farm
