For the historian to start, TCP/IP must be enabled for the SQL Server. The following error message appears if TCP/IP is not enabled: "Fatal initialization error - unable to start. (Failed to open connection to configuration database)." By default, SQL Server Express and Developer Edition do not have TCP/IP enabled.
