MSSql Database is installed and configured. Now not able to proceed furthur while installing ThingWorx-Foundation-Installer-mssql-windows-9-2-8. What is the issue here ? I referred this article also support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/platform/r9/en/index.html#page/ThingWorx/Help/Composer/DataStorage/PersistenceProviders/mssql_database_setup_for_thingworx_windows.html
Have you tried connecting to that database from another client on your ThingWorx server, such as SQL Management Studio? You may need to enable ports or remote connections on your SQL server.

1433 and 1434 ports enabled for mssql and mssql express. Now SQL server agent is not running. Is this might be a reason for not able to install Thingworx foundation ?
Hi @AP_9587236
SQL Server agent isn't needed for running ThingWorx. It's used for executing scheduled jobs at the database level--outside of ThingWorx. You can google for a number of posts for resolving issues with SQL Server agent.
In regard to your installation failure, here are some things to check:
