Hello,
In our maintenance plan for SQL Server 2000, we are performing full backups which in turn has their retention setting to 2 days. Unfortunately, it appears that this option is not working. Has anybody else seen this? We are running on Windows 2000 Advanced Server.

hi
I had a view in which I did something like this
isnull(fld,val) as 'alias'
when I assign a value to this in the client (vb 6.0) it works ok in sql2000 but fails in 2005.
When I change the query to fld as 'alias' then it works ok in sql 2005 .
why ?? I still have sql 2000 (8.0) compatability.
Also some queries which are pretty badly written run on sql 2000 but dont run at all in sql 2005 ???
any clues or answers ?? it is some configuration issue ?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I am trying to edit some data from a SQL2000-datasource in ASP.NET 2.0 and have a problem with a column that has bit-data and is used for selection. SQL2005 works fine when declaring <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter DefaultValue="TRUE" Name="APL" Type="boolean" /> </SelectParameters>When running this code with SQL2000, there are no error-msgs, but after editing a record the "APL"-column looses its value of 1 and is set to 0. Looks like an issue with type-conversion, we've hit incompatibilities between SQL200 and 2005 with bit/boolean several times before. So, how is this done correctly with SQL2000? (I've tried setting the Type to "int16" -> err. Also setting Defval="1" gave an err) ThanksMichael
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm unable to gain connectivity to two stand- alone PC's having WIN XP PROFESSIONAL, v. 2002, through Microsoft SQL SERVER 2000. :eek:
Both the PC's are stand-alone and have both have WIN XP PROF. I installed Microsoft SQL SERVER 2000 in which only the Client Components were successfully installed.
I have the Administrator Rights on both the PC's.
The Problem on both the PC's that I'm facing is as follows:-
On starting SQL Server Enterprise Manager, the PC was not detected as a Server under the SQL Server Group, and thus I selected the option 'New SQL Server Registration', then I gave my full computer name (as appears in the properties of 'my computer'), selected Windows Authentication and then selected OK to start or connect.
It did not connect and then I got the following error message:
-------------------------------------------
A connection could not be established to 'COMPUTER NAME'.
Reason: SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
ConnectionOpen(Connect())
Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration property (by right click on the COMPUTER NAME_node) and try again.
OK
-------------------------------------------
On starting the SQL Query Analyzer, firstly the message connecting to 'COMPUTER NAME' was seen and then it also gave the following error message:
-------------------------------------------
Unable to connect to server 'COMPUTER NAME':
Server: Msg 17, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][Shared Memory] SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
OK
-------------------------------------------
where the 'COMPUTER NAME' stands for the name of the particular system that can be seen in System Properties-> Computer Name-> Full computer name.
I had installed the MDAC Components from the Windows Update website.
I checked the registration properties and have tried many times but everytime the same error messages were received in both the systems and all the efforts bore no fruits.
Both the systems are:
Intel P4
WINXP PROF. v2002
128MB DDR RAM
40 GB HDD
Please help soon as I am studying SQL Server!
THANKS. ;)
Hi allWe have some tables with a couple of layers of very simple views built ontop. In the table are maybe 6 columns and about 15000 records. The firstview cobines the data in the table with some other data from a lookuptable. The second view does some sorting on the first view using certaindates . They have worked fine for well over a year now.Until this morning that is... the views stopped returning the full set ofresults- even the very simple one that sits just above the table. The viewreturned the core of the data from the main table, but nothing from thelookup table.In order to get them to work we had to delete each view (using access frontend to do this), and then recreate it with exactly the same SQL text. I amguessing this causes SQL Server to recompile it. As soon as view 1 had beenrecreated it worked, but view 2 still failed, again rebuilding view 2 itstarted working.The only thing I can think of is that this morning I added 2 new fields tothe base table, but I'm sure I've done this before without any (noticable)problems.any thoughts as to why it happened would be welcome, I am a bit nervousnow...thanksAndy
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm just moving over one of our databases from SQL2000 to 2005. Everything is working fine, and all web sites are working, however I just can't seem to get xp_cmdshell to function on the 2005 server.
I have enabled xp_cmdshell, and when I run a stored procedure, which writes the contents of one column to a text file, it says "invalid object name". This table is definitely there, and is actually updated earlier on in the same SP, so permissions for that are fine.
This is the line causing the problem (if I take it out, the rest of the SP works no problems):
--write the text file
EXEC master.sys.xp_cmdshell 'bcp "SELECT newslettertext FROM mydatabase.dbo.newsletters" queryout D:ewslettertext extbody.txt -U -P -c'
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name 'mydatabase.dbo.newsletters'.
SQLState = 37000, NativeError = 8180
Error = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared.
NULL
Could it be to do with permissions on the master.sys.xp_cmdshell? If so, wouldn't it give me a "permission denied" error?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
I have a SQL Server 2000 cluster running on x64 OS. I found the threads in the forum to run perfmon locally by using the x86 version of perfmon (mmc /32 perfmon). However, I cannot run a perfmon remotely from another machine and see the SQL Server perfmon data on any of the nodes in the cluster. The remote perfmon picks up all of the other perfmon variables but no SQL.
I found another thread where somebody asked this question but it wasn't answered. Thanks in advance.

Hello to all,
if have a problem with a SELECT query that works very fine on SQL Server 2000 but not on 2005. I've transfered my db by creating a full backup and restoring the db on 2005. The db is working except this problem.
When i start executing it doesn't finish. I waited a couple of minutes. On 2000 it only takes about 6 seconds to run.
Here it is:
Code Snippet
SELECT * FROM PPS_TERMbesttmpwhere PPS_TermBestTmp.BestNr + CONVERT(varchar(30),CAST(REPLACE(PPS_TermBestTmp.Pos1, ',', '.') AS float),2)
NOT IN (SELECT PPS_TermBest.BestNr + CONVERT(varchar(30), PPS_TermBest.Pos1,2) FROM PPS_TermBest)
Any ideas?
Thanx

Hy all.
My main goal would be to create some kind of map of the database, wich contains information of all connecting fields, including wich fields has key references to the other one and wich table. I'd like to have a table wich shows all the database connections tablename, field, field/table_key (from or to the key points), field_key_type (prymary or foreign)
So I thaugh to get sp_fkeys and sp_pkeys from master table and inner joining their results, but I simplay cannot "catch" their result sets. The script must have been written in SQL.
Obviously I'd like to do this:
SELECT * FROM EXEC sp_fkeys @table_name = 'xy'
of course it is not working this way, but I'd like something like this.
Please help! Thanx!
I know my problem is not directly associated w/ SSIS, so please forgive the post here. I figured this would be the "most" appropriate place to post this challenge.
We're attempting to edit a 2000 DTS package in Design mode from within the 2005 SQL Management Studio. To do this we downloaded/installed the following packages from the MS download site:
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DTS Designer Components
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Backward Compatibility Components
We're able to open the package in design mode from the Management Studio (Server > Management > Legacy > Data Transformation Services > DTS Package Name). But, when the DTS designer is open, the backspace and arrow keys won't respond in the Management Studio. They begin responding when we close the DTS designer. There are no error messages when we close the DTS designer.
Does anyone know of a fix or a workaround? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,I just asked some people to help me out and phone microsoft with thefollowing information, kindly they refused unless we setup a supportcontract with them first, for pre-sales information. (That really doesnot sound like good business sense to me - anyway here is our problem,if anyone could help thanks)."To tell and ask microsoft:We will be setting up a microsoft sql server 2000 instance running on awindows 2003 server.1) We need to check this can run alongside a microsoft 2003 sql server(either workgroup or standard edition), on the same machine. Are thereany .dll clashes if we do this? If there are can we run SQL Server2000, in a virtual machine running windows 2000 professional. (I have alicenced copy we can use for this).2) If we run one instance of 2000, and one of 2003 of the sql servers,can one use the processor licence model, and one use the CAL licencemodel."Thanks for any help, and any idea why they actually force you to usenews groups for pre-sales information?David
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am writing a pgm that attaches to a SQL Server database. I have an Add stored procedure and an Update stored procedure. The two are almost identical, except for a couple parameters. However, the Add function works and the Update does not. Can anyone see why? I can't seem to find what the problem is...
This was my test:
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Update", cn)
'Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("pContact_Add", cn)
Try
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserId", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = UserId
cmd.Parameters.Add("@FirstName", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = TextBox1.Text
[...etc more parameters...]
cmd.Parameters.Add("@Id", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ContactId
cn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
Label1.Text = "done"
cn.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
Label1.Text = ex.Message
End Try
When I use the Add procedure, a record is added correctly and I receive the "done" message. When I use the Update procedure, the record is not updated, but I still receive the "done" message.
I have looked at the stored procedures and the syntax is correct according to SQL Server.
Please I would appreciate any advice...
I just restored my SQL server 2000 database on the SQL server 2005. after this i ran the Service broker sample ("Hello World") on this database by changing the AdventureWorks name to the new database name. The "setup.sql" runs fine. When i run the "SendMessage.sql" i was not getting any rows in the output (The message was not getting inserted into the queue). I checked the Service broker is enabled on this databased using the query "select is_broker_enabled from sys.databases where name = 'newdbname' " It was 1. I even tried the ALTER DATABASE SET ENABLE_BROKER. but it didnt work.
When i tried the sample on a newly created database it worked fine.
Is there any solution to make the restored database to work for service broker.
Thanks

Trying to setup an ODBC system DSN on our Vista Business local desktop we get the
following errors -
-START ERROR WINDOW-

Any help greatly appreciated as this is stopping us from making
database/table connections etc. We've checked the firewall setup and all is well there.
PS - we can still connect fine using XP or windows 2000 desktops and their
local DSNs.
I am attempting to move some SQL 2000 databases to SQL 2005. My main production database does not seem to want to move. When I use the SQL 2005 GUI the .bak backup file is marked 'Incomplete'. When I attempt to restore the backup file I get a 'RESTORE detected an error on page (0:0) in database' message. I saw a thread in the SQL Express forum suggesting trying to restore from the T-SQL level to get the GUI out of the picture and I get the same 'error on page (0:0)' message. However when I take the same file and use SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager it restores with no problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I recently had to reinstall a new instance of SQLServer 2000, but was unable to use the previous server name. As a result, my Access2000 front end is not happy with it's linked tables. I can't seem to find anyplace within Access to universally change the address of the SQLServer used as the back-end for all linked tables.
When I do try to access the linked tables through Access, I get an error, and the option to change the server location. When I try to type-in the new SQLServer location, there is an attempt to reconnect to SQLServer, but a whole lot of errors are generated, and none of the data is transferred into the Access table.
I really don't want to have to re-do my Access front end, so it seems it would be easiest to somehow reinstall SQLServer to have the same server location it used to. Is there a good way to completely erase all traces of SQLServer so that I can have better luck reinstalling it to the same location it used to be in? Just using the uninstall program from SQLServer doesn't seem to be cutting it.
Thanks!
I've created a small company database where the tables reside in a SQLServer database. I'm using Access 2000 forms for a front end.I've got a System DSN set-up to SQL Server and am using links withinAccess 2000 to get to the SQL Server tables.My forms worked fine until I made a few minor changes to the databaseschema on SQL Server (e.g. added a foreign key, or added a column).After that, all the links break - I click on a table link and get anerror msg like "invalid object name."Deleting the links after a schema change and re-adding the links seemedto fix the problem. The forms I'd already created seemed to work fineafter re-creating the links.But then I got more advanced with my forms. I have it set up so thatfor certain entry fields, the combobox gets populated with values froma table (the description appears in the drop-down and the correspondingprimary key value gets populated in the table). I created a number offorms using this technique, entered data, and everything worked fine.Made a small schema change and it broke everything -- not the actualtable links, but the functionality for the drop-downs. My values nolonger appeared, and this was true for forms that accessed tables whoseschemas did not change.This is driving me nuts. Is there any way to keep my forms frombreaking each time I make a small schema change?Thanks.- Dana

We are using an Access 2000 project to view our SQL Tables and using Access 2000 Runtime to Access the forms in the project. We have written in a locking system in VB and removed the video controls to prevent users from accessing the same records. But of course now we need to make the video controls available. This has now thrown up the problem of multiple users accessing the same records. We have tried to write code to lock records when then video controls are used but this is not working as well as we hoped. Can anyone please suggest any way of setting up locking on SQL using triggers from the Access frontend? or any other types of locking systems that could be written in the Access front end.
