I cannot create database. I'm using Win10. Steps: 1. Select SQL Sever (Windows Authorization)  2. click Create Database 3. Click ok, then I see 'Fail to create database'   Not sure if this error is related but I can see the following error message when I start BluePrism application.  Error: You must specify a connection before Blue Prism can function

You must follow the installation guide carefully. The connection details must be in place before trying to create the database, otherwise how does BP know where to create it and what it should be called?

You need to specify the Database server

Thanks. What specification do you mean for the Database server.

In the Connection Details you need to provide BP with the location of the SQL Server instance, eg \\A_Database_Server_Somewhere\SQLServer. You also need to provide the name of the database you are going to create.
