# How to install the Reporting Server on a Standalone Computer and Connect it to the Database
Use the following procedure to install the reporting server on a standalone computer and connect it to the database.
**Important**
Before performing the following procedure you should read and understand [About App-V 5.1 Reporting](about-app-v-51-reporting.md).
## To install the reporting server on a standalone computer and connect it to the database
1. Copy the App-V 5.1 server installation files to the computer on which you want to install it on. To start the App-V 5.1 server installation right-click and run **appv\_server\_setup.exe** as an administrator. Click **Install**.
2. On the **Getting Started** page, review and accept the license terms, and click **Next**.
3. On the **Use Microsoft Update to help keep your computer secure and up-to-date** page, to enable Microsoft updates, select **Use Microsoft Update when I check for updates (recommended).** To disable Microsoft updates, select **I don't want to use Microsoft Update**. Click **Next**.
4. On the **Feature Selection** page, select the **Reporting Server** checkbox and click **Next**.
5. On the **Installation Location** page, accept the default location and click **Next**.
6. On the **Configure Existing Reporting Database** page, select **Use a remote SQL Server**, and type the machine name of the computer running Microsoft SQL Server, for example **SqlServerMachine**.
> [!NOTE]
> If the Microsoft SQL Server is deployed on the same server, select **Use local SQL Server**.
For the SQL Server Instance, select **Use the default instance**. If you are using a custom Microsoft SQL Server instance, you must select **Use a custom instance** and then type the name of the instance.
Specify the **SQL Server Database name** that this reporting server will use, for example **AppvReporting**.
7. On the **Configure Reporting Server Configuration** page.
- Specify the Website Name that you want to use for the Reporting Service. Leave the default unchanged if you do not have a custom name.
- For the **Port binding**, specify a unique port number that will be used by App-V 5.1, for example **55555**. You should also ensure that the port specified is not being used by another website.
8. Click **Install**.
**Got an App-V issue?** Use the [App-V TechNet Forum](https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/home?forum=mdopappv).
