<p>I believe that this is because couple of months ago we made a
change that all MS SQL servers are stopped by default and set to
use the same default port.<br>
This is a trade-off between ability to run different SQL versions
in parallel and have all of them to have default instances with
default port. Apparently majority of the customers need the later
and to be able to call 127.0.0.1:1433 against each of them.<br>
To revert to previous settings please run <a href="https://gist.github.com/FeodorFitsner/a7eba7f44f9becacd3abddca27974e93">
this</a> script at <code>init</code> stage.</p>
<p>Hopefully I understood the problem correctly and this will help.
Let us know if not.</p>
<p>Thanks!<br>
Ilya.</p></div>Ilya Finkelshteyn
