Hi
-I have istalled sql server 2005 standard edition , I want to install sql server 2005 enterprise edition on the same machine.
Is it possible? I have Microsoft windows server 2003 SP2 and 1GB RAM.
I want to use partition function with the enterprise edition, will the trial version of sql server work for me?
-If I have already created a database and tables using the standard edition, will I be able to access and use the database using the installed trial version or will I have to start a fresh creating a new database?
- Is it possible to access the same database with any of the installed versions?
BTW, I am prety new to sql server and databases , I am trying to learn by myself
Thanks
Hi all--I'm researching the cleanest downgrade path from a trial edition of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise to a licensed Standard Edition copy. It looks like downgrading will entail uninstalling the old version and installing the new version, but I'd like to save the original setup as much as possible. Detaching the old databases will preserve the non-system databases; what method would work best for restoring the system databases?
Thanks!

Simple question. I have a client that needs SQL 2005 Standard installed NOW, and cannot wait for media to arrive. I know I can download the 180 trial of SQL 2005 Enterprise, but can it be licensed as Standard when we purchase?

I received an error when I tried to install SQL server 2005 enterprise edition trial software with office 2007. My operating system is Windows XP pro SP2. It could not locate an office file and recommended downloading office 2003 sp2. Will this fix the problem?
Dear All,We have a database which contains many tables which have millions ofrecords. When We attach the database with MS SQL Server 2005 StandardEdition Server and run some queries (having joins, filters etc.) thenthey take very long time to execute while when We execute same querieson Enterprise Edition then they run 10 times faster than on standardedition.Our database does not use any features which are present in EnterpriseEdition and not present in Standard Edition. We want to know what arethe differences between Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition forperformance. Why should we go for Enterprise Edition when StandardEdition has all the features required.We are presently using evaluation versions of SQL Server 2005 Standardand Enterprise Editions.Thanks and regards,Nishant Sainihttp://www.simplyjava.com

SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The certificate cannot be dropped because one or more entities are either signed or encrypted using it.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again.
This installation does not have encryption enabled, so I do not undersand the error or how to correct it.
After rebooting the SQL instance appears to be upgraded to Enterprise, but it cannot be upgraded to SP2.

I installed SQL 2005 Standard edition on a failover cluster (Windows 2003). It is in production. Vendor wanted Enterprise Edition. What are my options to migrate to Enterprise? Is there an in-place way to do this, or is it a big deal?
Vendor probably doesn't need Enterprise. It's a low volume OLTP application with small databases. No fancy stuff (other than the failover clustering). Vendor simply did not test his application on Standard so he says we need Enterprise. Nevertheless, Management will probably want me to make the change.
Hi All !!
I have a Server on Development with SQL 2000 + Report Server 2000 and SQL 2005 Standard with Report Server 2005. All is working properly.
Now, my boss realized that it is important to use SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition instead of SQL 2005 Standard Edition. This is the first time I do this and I don't know where to start or which are the items that I should consider when installing SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition.
Should I uninstall SQL 2005 Standard?
After installing Enterprise, Report Server will work as usual?
Are there any items to have in mind?
Many Thanks!!

Randy,
I did run upgrade advisior to check the existed sql 2005 standard edition to upgrade to enterprise editon. I got the following error message:
SQL Server version: 09.00.1399 is not supported by this release of Upgrade Advisor
Is it means the upgrade advisor can only work on from 7.0, 2000 to 2005? If I need check from standard to enterjprise in 2005, what kind of tool I can use?
Hello, you all,
I did all the stuff necessary for the upgrading (the Upgrade Advisor didn't say anything special), but the Setup says the following:
"
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 7.00.1063
Cause: The update is blocked. You can obtain more informations in the online help "Versions- and editionsupdates".
Editions problem:
The update is blocked because of rules for the editions update.
"
Is it possible that an upgrade is not possible with the evaluation edition? Or can there be another cause?
Thanks in advance

I have been testing and developing with Sql 2005 enterprise eval. Now ready to deploy, and we have purchased a "device" and 5 "cal" licenses for each box. What is the recommended procedure for applying Sql 2005 "standard" licenses to existing boxes having 2005 enterprise eval. installed? I do not want to delete and re-install sql server if at all possible!
Thanks!

Current set-up: three node cluster running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition SP2 with two instances of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition SP2.
Virtual node 1: Standard Edition, default instance, Database Engine only
Virtual node 2: Standard Edition, named instance, Database Engine, Analysis Services and Integration Services
Physical node A: Prefered node for virtual node 1
Physical node B: Failover node for both virtual node 1 and 2 (thus having two installations of Standard Edition)
Physical node C: Prefered node for virtual node 2
We started off with this set-up because there was no need for Enterprise features, and SQL 2005 supports failover clustering with two nodes in Standard Edition. Saved a bundle of cash, so everybody's happy. Now we need to run a solution on virtual node 2 that requires Enterprise features in Analysis and Integration Services, so an edition upgrade is required on virtual node 2. I have done some research and found several edition upgrade examples, but none that match the above scenario. We are running production on these machines, so I can't risk experimenting with command line options, I have to be right the first time.
Is it possible to mix two editions of SQL Server 2005 in one cluster? Can I upgrade virtual node 2 to Enterprise but leave virtual node 1 at Standard? What procedure do I have to follow to upgrade all three components of virtual node 2 to Enterprise Edition on both physical node B and C?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

I have just installed SQL 2005 Trial, I have downloaded the DVD iso image from Microsoft. We are planning to upgrade it to the SQL 2005 Standard Edition.
My Question is, does the Trial Edition already include the SP1? When not, ist it possible to Upgrade the Trial with SP1, and the later to Standard Edition?
Or is the only supported way to Upgrade the Trial To Standard, and first then apply the SP1 patch?
thanx for anny suggestions
I have downloaded Microsoft SQL 2005 trial and now have this running perfectly with our main database. Before I did this I checked to make sure that you could indeed unlock trial with a valid number, and the MSDN site said yes it can be done. I have now purchased the full Standard edition, and wish to enter the product key into the trial version to unlock. How do I do this ???. I have spent 3 hours on the phone today with over 11 different departments, and they all give me conflicting info. Eopen say it cant be done and that I have to uninstall the trial, and then completely re-install STD edition (I DEFINATELY DONT WANT THIS !!!!)
They put me to tech support who say it can be done, but I have to pay for this information ...Excuse me but I yesterday paid over £4000 for the software and now they wont help me unless I pay for support !!!!! http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143393.aspx says it is an acceptable upgrade path but dont say how to do it. .
Eopen say this is not true !!!
How do I unlock SQL 2005 Trial version and down grade it it to a full blown STD version with my licence number I have. Can someone please tell me how this can be done.
If anyone knows, can they please email me at rob.wheeler@ehbp.com with instructions.
Thanks,

Hello everybody,
I got a problem in my development phase. I'm developing a web-application system that running merge database technology which is centralized database and distributed database. This is because my customer want a highly optimum system standby.
My centralized database running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and the distributed database running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (because it is free). Each of these database, the users can change the data on its database. So, every database must have the same data. from my understanding, each server must act as Publisher and Subscriber. Can SQL Server 2005 Express Edition be a Publisher?
If not, what the solution you all may suggest, because cost is the first factor. If my architecture is not correct, so what you all suggest to me to resolve the problem.
Thanks so much. Any suggestion and opinion is highly appreciate and I'm highly thanks to you all.
I have a problem,
because we installed the SQL Server 2005-64Bit Developer Edition on a 2003 Server R2-64Bit with 10GB RAM an 2 Xeon. Now we have huge performance problems wich should be better using the Stadard Edition...
I don't know if it is easily possible to upgrade by only inserting the DVD and start the Setup...
Has anybody some experiences?
Please give some information....
We have recently upgraded from the trial version of sql2005 to the standard Edition. But I am having problems upgrading the client on my machine
I currently cannot access the server as I get a message telling me the trial version has expired.
I have run the disc but nothing has changed.
Do I need to uninstall the client first?
I am also running the sql2000 client,
Listed in my add or remove programmes list are the following Should these be removed first
Microsoft SQL server 2005
Microsoft SQL server 2005 backward compatibility
Microsoft SQL server 2005 Native client
Thanks
I want to download SQL Server 2005 Trial Edition, but i always meets problem in the last step. it displays:
<<We€™re sorry, but there is no Microsoft.com Web page that matches your entry. It is possible you typed the address incorrectly, or the page may no longer exist. You may wish to try another entry or choose from the links below, which we hope will help you find what you€™re looking for.>>

I upgraded a MS SQL 2005 Enterprise Evaluation/Trial to MS SQL 2005 Standard Edition with 5 User CAL.
I used the following command to upgrade:
start /wait setup.exe ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 PIDKEY=<mykey> /qb
Once complete, "select SERVERPROPERTY('LicenseType')" returns DISABLED, but I expected that it would return PER_SEAT.
Thankfully, after the upgrade it does show EDITION=Standard Edition.
Questions:
1. How do I verify the license installed is the Client Access License of 5?
-- SQL Server 2005 does not seem to have the same SQL Licence control panel as did SQL 2000. It is not listed under Control Panel -> Licensing (only thing listed is 'Windows Server') nor under Administrator Tools -> Licensing.
2. How do you add CALs or change license type in SQL 2005?
-- I was also puzzled that I was not asked during setup of the license mode and/or number of licenses ( I did not get this on a fresh install of SQL 2005 SE either ).
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Can SQL 2005 32bit Standard edition be upgraded to SQL 2005 32bit Enterprise Edition in-place?

View 12 Replies View RelatedHello,
I have been unable to create a replication from an SQL Server 2005 standard edition database to remote SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The remote express edition is on a Virtual Private Server we are leasing from a hosting company. The name of the remote DB is similar to vs572.si-vs572.com. I can connect to this with SQL server authentication through Management Studio and also with SSIS. But, I have been unable to create a push subscription (I have tried a test push subscription with the same publication to a local SQL Express server here in our office and this works fine).
Here is the error message: SQL Server Replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'VS572SQLEXPRESS'.
The hosting company had originally installed a shared SQL server which would not support replication. They then installed SQL Express edition and I was hoping this would allow us to run a replication.
I tried to connect to VS572SQLEXPRESS with out any luck. I check the remote connections, made sure replication was installed, etc., but no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Albert
