We have jumped straight to 64 bit SQL 2005 with no 32 bit 2005 inbetween.
However this means the tools we have cannot be installed on windows XP/2000 32 bit.
Is there some way to get the 32 bit tools as it appears strange that 32 bit tools were not provided for remote access.
Cheers

We are getting error and we are aware that there should be 2 files but we are able to find the second file,how to search all files(2) so that we may restore DB.

I know the basic defiinition of these two options, but i am not very clear why would someone choose one over another,
currently I am using Append to Media option, and every day backup, I see my backup files growing in size.
can someone give me nice example about these two options,

Hi Guys
I have just been trying to install the Admin tools from the SQL 6.5 setup CD on a Win NT Workstation 4 SP6 system. Everything seems to go fine until the icons are addded into the program group, these come up as system default icons and don't link to any programs. If I go into the installed directory and execute the programs then I get the following message:
The SQLOLE OLE object could not be registered. Class not registered (80040154)
After clicking OK the program terminates. I have tried diferent install directories, even diferent partitions. I have also deleted the directory and removed the Registry entries manual - this is because it cannot be uninstalled.
Still no luck.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

Hello,
I currently use Toad 7.5 for Oracle as GUI admin tool. Are there any good tools for SQL 2000 like Toad that provide an easy to use GUI.
I did check out Toad for MSSQL and it seems limited compared to the Oracle version.
Thanks,

Hi, I'm from Argentina. I made a backup of my database from ServerA (SQL 2000) and trying to restore it to ServerB (SQL 2005) I'm getting the following error: "The media set has 2 media families but only 1 are provided".
Any ideas? Thanks.

I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise under Windows 2003 x64 Enterprise. My current backup strategy uses T-SQL jobs run by SQL Agent (writes out *.bak files) and then I have an Integration Services job that copies the *.bak files to our NAS device. I have performed a restore without issue. The jobs are all automated every four hours via SQL Agent. Is this a sound strategy or are there additional benefits to using 3rd party tools? If so, what are the advantages and which tool provides them?
Login failed for user 'TOSHIBA-USERASPNET'
I know that the file persmission for the web application have to include aspnet, so i keep resetting the folder permission for aspnet in file manager, but the login failed keeps coming back every day or two
problem is after working with VS05 Pro, SQL Server Management Studio CTP, somehow the aspnet persmission get changed, use alot of sqldatasource wizards and often there is a conflict/hang between the datasource wizard and the need to have the mdf in a dettached state within VS server explorer,
not sure but the procedure to fix this seems to be to reboot, detach and re-attach the mdf in the Sql server Studio tool, re-apply the aspnet file permission on the web app folders (wonder should i be doing this in IIS instead), make sure the mdf within server explorer is detached, the it works
anyway, getting real tired of the resulting delays and design time derailment, clues greatly appreciated, thanks
sometimes i can use View in Browser when in VS05 form view and i wont get the aspnet folder permission error and other times i do.
last thing, is it a bad idea to give aspnet full permission for the entire web applicaiton??
Is there - apart from the notorious RESTORE HEADERONLY - an tool which is able to tell which SQL Server version created a specific BAK file? I'm looking for a tool that can be used w/o an available/running SQL Server installation.
Alternatively, is there any documentation about what is read with RESTORE HEADERONLY so I could write a tool myself?
Where would I find the version "bytes" in a BAK file?
currently if I want to restore 1 db to another i do
RESTORE DATABASE userr
FROM DISK = 'd:sqlbackupsuser.bak'
WITH MOVE 'user' TO 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAuserr.mdf',
MOVE 'user_log' TO 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAuserr_log.ldf',
REPLACE
now I am backing up my db to a media - How can I do the same restore above but from that media (I don't remember what I made the media point to -- how can I find this out)
Hi Folks..I have a question i want's to make a website where people can upload mediafiles like movies short movies of a minut or 3 max. Can i store those mediafiles like mp3, mpg etc.. for instance in a sql-server database, or is thisnot wise to do?Thanx in advance..

View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone out there work with databases created using sp_create_removable?
I am encountering a situation that is a difference between 6.5 and 7.0 handling of these types of databases. In 6.5, our product creates a removable database on a fixed hard drive. When the user is ready to move the database to a jazz or zip drive, we set the database readonly and remove the log file. No problems. We can use sp_dbinstall witout a log file and everything works just fine.
In 7.0 we do the same thing, however, when we attach the database via sp_attach_db (which replaced sp_dbinstall), SQL Server 7 creates a new log file.
Is there any way to make SQL Server NOT re-create this log file?

It was difficult to enter a subject that coveres what I want to ask and also the explanation isn't trivial.
The question is for SQL server 2000 (I can't upgrade so solutions should be feasable on 2000). If patch level is an issue it chouldn't be a problem to patch to the level needed if it isn't there already.
The database has in full logged recovery mode and its .mdf filel and .ldf files are on 2 seperate disk locations (lets name these M: for the .mdf files and L: for the .ldf files).
Now whenever I read something about media failure it's allways about a failure of M: and how you then can backup you latest log file and have an 'up to the time of distaster' recovery. And that works fine. I played around a bit by putting M: and L: on a test machine on USB sticks, so that I could simulate media failures.
When I yank L: and simulate a media failure of the .ldf files the problem starts. You can't handle that database anymore since it becomes suspect and making a backup is not possible anymore (neither dbf nor ldf backup)
What I was able to do to get as close as possible to the time of failure was this:
1. Detach the database
2. Move the current .mdf file to a different location
(3. here I do whatever is needed to get the physical system working again)
4. Restore the database from the last full backup
5. Change the database to simple recovery model (needed to perform step 8)
6. Detach the database
7. change the restored .mdf file with the one set asside in step 2
8. attach the database
9. return to full logged
I then have a (and thats the main question actually) seemingly working database again with more data in it then I would have when doing the recovery by restoring the last full backup and all transaction log backups. To emphasis this: if I would have a weekly full and daily transaction log backups, if could lose up to a day of data, with the outlined method I would have much more data.
Now I know that the data are firstly written to the .ldf files and then to the .mdf files whenever the server has time for it (at least that is how I understand it) and so I should get more data then doing it the 'traditional' way.
How correct is that assumption and if so: how consistent are the data in that 'recovered' .mdf file?

I'm having no success install SSMS on a 32 bit workstation from 64 bit media.
I'm aware from researching that the SSMS is 32 bit, in fact I see it run as a 32 bit app on the server.
However, when i try and install from the 64 bit CD or DVD I get errors such as not a valid Win32 application, or when i tre random msi's guessing as to which is ssms I get "This installation package is not supported by this processor type. Contact yoru product vendor."
I run a Pent D 2.8 on 32 bit XP
Any assisstance on how to install SSMS on a 32 bit workstation from the 64 bit media would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
This is my first post. I am trying to install SQL express on my PC but it keeps on having this error:
"encountered an unexpected error in datastore. The action is setdialogs..."
I have searched far and wide for a solution to this problem. Some solutions worked for others, but none worked for me so far.
I don't have a previously installed sql version on my laptop. But just to check, I followed the steps in using msiinv.exe to detect any previously installed software. I am pretty sure that there was no sql server entry in the output file.
I have all the requirements, installed (.net framework 2.0,etc). I have all the latest Windows updates (except XP SP3).
My laptop is well above the minimum requirements for sql express ( Core 2 processor, 2 gigs ram, 7Gigs free space).
I have the Protected Storage service running (which I found out was required to install sql server).
I even followed the directions to fix Cryptograhical services.
I am runninng out of options here.
Thank you for your replies.
