The client and server cannot communicate, because they do not possess a common algorithm
I recently faced an interesting issue when trying to fetch data from third-party API. When trying to connect to the API endpoint, I received the following error message:
“An error occurred while making the HTTP request to https://<API endpoint>. This could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case. This could also be caused by a mismatch of the security binding between the client and the server.” Inner exception was “Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.”
Solution :
The issue came up when we setup a Thycotic Secret Server on a hardened OS. On the OS TLS 1.0 was disabled for security reasons, however at the moment the used Microsoft SQL server didn´t speak TLS 1.1 or TLS 1.2. So the error message:
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 – The client and server cannot communicate, because they do not possess a common algorithm.)
After TLS 1.0 was enabled on the Thycotic Server the installation could be performed without issues. So make sure that your Microsoft SQL environment is up to date and supports TLS 1.1/1.2 if you wish to disable TLS 1.0.

SQL : Paging in Stored Procedure
Create simple Student table using following script
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Student]( [ID] [int] NOT NULL, [Name] [varchar](50) NOT NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GO
The OFFSET-FETCH clause is used to fetch specif records. OFFSET-FETCH can be used only with the ORDER BY clause.
Stored Procedure :
Limitations in Using OFFSET-FETCH
- ORDER BY is mandatory to use OFFSET and FETCH clause.
- OFFSET clause is mandatory with FETCH. You can never use, ORDER BY … FETCH.
- TOP cannot be combined with OFFSET and FETCH in the same query expression.
- The OFFSET/FETCH rowcount expression can be any arithmetic, constant, or parameter expression that will return an integer value. The rowcount expression does not support scalar sub-queries.

Difference Between Primary Key and Unique Key
| PRIMARY KEY | UNIQUE KEY | |
| NULL | It doesn’t allow Null values. Because of this we refer PRIMARY KEY = UNIQUE KEY + Not Null CONSTRAINT |
Allows Null value. But only one Null value. |
| INDEX | By default it adds a clustered index | By default it adds a UNIQUE non-clustered index |
| LIMIT | A table can have only one PRIMARY KEY Column[s] | A table can have more than one UNIQUE Key Column[s] |
| CREATE SYNTAX | Below is the sample example for defining a single column as a PRIMARY KEY column while creating a table:CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer ( Id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, FirstName VARCHAR(100), LastName VARCHAR(100), City VARCHAR(50) )Below is the Sample example for defining multiple columns as PRIMARY KEY. It also shows how we can give name for the PRIMARY KEY: CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer |
Below is the sample example for defining a single column as a UNIQUE KEY column while creating a table:CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer ( Id INT NOT NULL UNIQUE, FirstName VARCHAR(100), LastName VARCHAR(100), City VARCHAR(50) )Below is the Sample example for defining multiple columns as UNIQUE KEY. It also shows how we can give name for the UNIQUE KEY: CREATE TABLE dbo.Customer |
| ALTER SYNTAX | Below is the Syntax for adding PRIMARY KEY CONSTRAINT on a column when the table is already created and doesn’t have any primary key:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer ADD CONSTRAINT PK_CUSTOMER PRIMARY KEY (Id) |
Below is the Syntax for adding UNIQUE KEY CONSTRAINT on a column when the table is already created:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer ADD CONSTRAINT UK_CUSTOMER UNIQUE(Id) |
| DROP SYNTAX | Below is the Syntax for dropping a PRIMARY KEY:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer DROP CONSTRAINT PK_CUSTOMER |
Below is the Syntax for dropping a UNIQUE KEY:ALTER TABLE dbo.Customer DROP CONSTRAINT UK_CUSTOMER |
