Hi, I installed Drupal 8.2.5 with Microsoft SQL (I know alot of people do not install using MSSQL). However, everything is running smoothly except, I do not have an article page. The page that I am using is a custom page (a blog i believe, since it displays my name when submitting), and a "forum topic". These pages are located under "Add content" page. To acquire a "basic page" and "article page", what do I have to do? I hope this is a module, usually these would be installed default with Drupal.

Try reinstalling.

Something must be wrong with your installation, since page and article content types are in core.

I'm not answering any questions related to trying to run Drupal from MS SQL database or IIS server, not having anything to do with it.

You likely installed the minimal profile when installing Drupal. This profile does not create any content types on install, so if you want an article, you'll need to manually create it.
