I have SQL 2005 Enterprise 64bit SP2 on windows 2003 EE 64bit SP2 w/24gig memory. My problem is that it wont use more than 110mb of memory according to task manager processes and performance. I've tried messing with the min and max and rebooting each time I make the change and sill nothing. Currently Ive changed it back to default. The server shows up as 24gig so it is seeing the memory. Any ideas? I thought 64bit was supposed to be better about this kind of thing.
Also, AWE has always been unchecked as this is a 64bit box.
The upgrade works fine if the instance starts on SP2. But the instance has the hotpatch applied and is running build 3200. When I try the upgrade against the 3200 version it errors out with the following message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup ------------------------------
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.
My question is: if I upgrade from standard to enterprise on Version: 9.00.3042 it upgrade perfectly well but if I try to upgrade from Version: 9.00.3200 version, it gives the error message.
let me know if anyone can solve the issue at cqldba@gmail.com
We have a 64bit installation of SQL Server (SSIS, SSAS) running and working fine. There is a requirement to install 64bit SSRS on this existing setup. The problem is: While running the SQL Server Setup wizard, the Reporting Services checkbox remains greyed out. In other words, there isnt an option to select SSRS for installation. So the question is: Is it even possible to install 64bit SSRS on an existing 64bit SQL server installation - given that SSRS wasnt installed during the first pass. PS: The SQL Server is SP2 on a Windows Server 2003 configured as an App Server.
I just installed the 64bit Vista and than wanted to install the 64bit SQL 2005 Std. Server on it.
Note: I downloaded my license from https://licensing.microsoft.com/eLicense/L1033/ProductDetail.Asp?SKU=228-05338.
Installing from SQLSTDSEL.ISO file results in the warning that for the REPORT- Server the .NET version has to be 32bit.
Stopping the installation at this point and try to install from SW CD SQL Svr Standard Edtn 2005 64Bit X64 English #1 x64 MLF.x11-57664 + SW CD SQL Svr Standard Edtn 2005 64Bit X64 English #2 x64 MLF.x11-57665 does not give the above error but on the other hand installs no server at all since somehow the installation routine is not working at all.
Installing now - after at least analysis server and reports server are 64bit and installed - from the first mentioned ISO results in the installation of the DB- Server.... but as a 32bit installation.
Now I wonder what did not work out - so maybe someone here has an idea if and how this problem is solveable.
Hi- I am hoping someone can help me or shed some light on an issue I am having. I have recently moved to a dedicated server with MSDE installed on it. The server was installed as the default instance and I changed the password to the SA account. I then copied my entire SA database over to the new MSDE database and everything was working good so it seemed. I believe at some point during copying of the data, or after installalling an application the SA account begain to fail and the password was changed. I have no idea how this happened, and better yet when I tried to change it logged in as the administrator with OSQL it told me I did not have sysadmin rights (I tried multiple Windows NT Auth logins and still got this error trying to change the password). So... I reinstalled MSDE and created a named instane. I then attached the mdf/ldf files to my named instance and am able to connect ok from a .NET application directly to my new MSDE Named Instance database. Sounds like everything is great right? Not really, I can't figure out how to connect through enterprise manager and its driving me CRAZY! 1. I CAN connect via any .NET app and a connection string 2. I CAN connect via the server with OSQL 3. I CAN connect via the web based enterprise manager (which is very limited and a freeware ASP app). 4. I CANNOT connect via enterprise manager. I have verified from the (SVRNETCN.EXE utility) that the port is open and have tried connecting to MY_IPADDRESSNAMEDINSTANCE but no luck. One additional side note, when I wasn't using a named instance I had no problems connecting through enterprise manager to my default MSDE instance. Any help would be grealy appriciated, this is driving me nuts! -Chad
I am trying to install the SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, but on the components selection page, the only options I can check are Sample Book/Docs and Tools(Business Intelligence Studio, SQL Management Studio).
Even on the advanced page, those are the only options. Everything runs with no problem, except the SQL server instance.
I checked on the SQL Server Configuration Manager, and it does not show any SQL instances installed.
I tried adding a new instance using the add/remove>change for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 by selecting the setup.exe file in the Enterprise CD, but the it has the same options. If I select the setup.exe file from my Workgroup Edition CD, the option for adding new instances works.
What should I Do?
Cant I add SQL server instances using the Enterprise Edition? I was unable to install even the first instance.
The computer I am using meets all requirements and no SQL versions have been installed yet.
Problem: I upgraded a SQL Server Express instance to SQL Server Enterprise, but I'm unable to connect to the SQL server from any remote machine. Only local connections work -- and I've verified that Remote Connections are allowed in the SQL Surface Confg. utility.
Scenario: Server1 has an SQL Enterprise edition installed as a default installation. SharePoint Server 2007 was installed later, and during that install a SQL Express edition instance was installed which is part of the standard SharePoint install. That Express instance contains all the SharePoint content databases.
So Server1 has SQL instances: Server1 <default install running Enterprise> Server1OFFICESERVER <previously running SQL Express, now upgraded to Enterprise>
After upgrading Server1OFFICESERVER to Enterprise, everything seemed to work fine (i.e. SharePoint works fine). However when I try to connect remotely to Server1OFFICESERVER I can't. I've verified through the SQL Surface configuration tool that remote connections are allowed. I've rebooted the server as well. I've tried connecting remotely using various PCs and various applications (e.g. SQL Server Mgmt Studio, Visual Studio, etc.).
I got sql 2000 installed on my machine. I got a sql 2000 database instance on my computer and I installed sql 2005 server enterprise but I have got no server instance from sql 2005 like what i have in sql 2000 when i first install, i can have an own server instance on my computer.
is it becos when i have a previous sql 2000 server instance on my computer??
I've two instances(Default, Named[dynamicsFINANCE]) running on SQL server 2014. However, when I try to connect to named instance say (dynamicsFINANCE) using SQL authentication from local SSMS, I get below error message:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
I assigned a static port number to the named instance [dynamicsFINANCE] 1450. I also setup the firewall rule to allow access to Port 1450.
I have to migrate all objects alogwith all constraints,SP,Triggers, indexes etc from Development instance to Production instance of a DB, all those things are created through wizard ie. Sql server 2000 Enterprise Manager. if i use DTS it only mirates data along with tables and views but constraints,SP,Triggers, indexes etc not yet copied.
can any body help me how can I solve this problem by copying all objects alogwith all constraints,SP,Triggers etc from Development instance to Production instance.
I have a 3 node cluster on which I have installed SSAS as it's own insntance. I have created this as a named instance and can connect to it by serverinstance if I'm on the server itself. However from my desktop I get the error saying instance was not found on server name.
I have defined an alternate port and setup firewall rules and can connect via server:port but not serverinstance. Prior to making this change SSAS was running on default port of 2383 and I could connect just by servername.
I have read many articles for previous versions saying that clustered SSAS will always use 2383 and that you must connect just using servername. However and this is were it gets strange. I have a 2 node UAT cluster with SSAS setup exactly the same way I've described above and I can connect from my desktop as serverinstance.
Should I be able to connect as serverinstances for a named clustered instance in 2012 ?
Hi, I have a task in hand to migrate (upgrade) from SQL2K named instance to SQL2K5 default instance. There are many intranet applications touching current SQL2K. I would like to perform this upgrade such that I don't have to touch any application code - meaning I don't have to change the connectionstring to point to new Default instance. How can I achieve this?
So, in otherwords, here is what I want to achieve:
Current Server: SQL2K: SERVER_AINSTANCE_A (named instance)
If I have both default, I could achive this by setting up DNS alias after migration done so that any call for SERVER_A would point to SERVER_B. But in my case, I don't have SERVER_A, I have named instance. Is there any solution?
I want to move one database from the source SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2000 instance in another machine. I have five user databases in this source SQL instance. How should be my approach to move this single database out of this ? My understanding is restoring this database in the new instance, copying all logins to the new instance and then copying the jobs, DTS packages, alerts, operators only specific to this database will do it. Please let me know if this is exactly what I should do ..

I am trying to set up a Named Instance of SQL 2000 on the same machine that has a default instance of SQL 7.0. The setup always completes and I am able to register the Named Instance of the SQL Server with which it was installed on. However, when I try to connect the users to the database, with both windows and SQL authentication, I receive a SQL server not found error. I have tried an alias setup as well as physically specifying the port number in settup up an ODBC connection. Has anyone ran into similar problems? Also, has anyone been able to successfully complete the process as mentioned above?
I have a server with sql server 2005 installed as the default instance -- I have a piece of software that needs SQL2000 to be the default instance. Is there a way other than install new sql2005 named instance and move databases to rename my SQL2005 instance from <machinename> to <machinename>sql05 for example?
i have installed SQL client instance on my Desktop "Machine-A", and i used to connect to SQLServer2000 running on another "Machine-B" by using valid username and password.
i created a DTS package and i used to run it. im very confused how the communication happens between the two machines and which process run where and which initiates which and which machine allocates waht resources. im really interested to know all these things. if any one know plz help me out.
I have an SQL2005 db residing on a 64bit server.I can load and run my App, provided it is installed on the server.However when I try to run from a Client's PC I get timeout errors.
Initially the error was Remote connections not allowed,but I have overcome this by ensuring SQLbrowser was running and that AllClient and Server Prodtocols were enabled.
I now keep getting a message the timeout has expired.
please tell me what is 32 bit and what is 64 bit databases in sql server? is that based on versions line 7.0 , sql server 2000, yukon and katmai like that or based on creation? please explain me
thank you very much

I run SQL Server 2005 on a Windows 2003 64-bit server. I have created a package where I run an execute t-sql statement task. In the t-sql I have the following:
select * from OpenDataSource('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','Data Source="c: est.mdb";User ID=Admin;Password=').pubs.dbo.data
and I get the following error:
The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" has not been registered.
We have an ASP 2.0 application built using SQL Server 2005, on a 32 bit system. We are going to bring in a much faster server and move the applicatioin to the new server. Since we are moving to a faster server, we are also considering putting a 64bit version of SQL on the new machine and running as 64 bit.
Now the rookie questions: 1) If we do this do we need to do anthing special with our procs/functions, i.e. do we need to recompile everything? 2) From an asp perspective, do we need to do anything to our pages/code? 3) what other issues do we need to be cognizant of?
I work for a mid size company with the usual collection of enterprise applications. We are trying to consolidate our SQL environment consisting of around 100 databases none of which are over 100GB with the average database size around 5GB. Recently a large server was purchased as the "Big Daddy" SQL box. Obviously not all the databases will be moved to this one box but within reason a number can.
My question: What is the best way to configure the box?
1 OS & 1 Default Instance - How do we isolate loops memory leaks etc... 1 OS & Multiple instances, ie:Dedicated instance for each application. - How do you allocate CPU & memory, allow for optimum performance without putting others at risk from a rouge process? Virtualized OS for each application with a default instance - Too much overhead impacts performance?
Future plans include offsite replication, perhaps mirroring with failover.
I'd appreciate anyone else's thoughts ideas? How have you tackled this problem in your environment?
I installed SQL Server 2005 recently on a cluster. I didn't go for the default instance and instead I named the instance option. Now I would like to migrate everything from the named instance to the default instance, which I haven't yet installed.
Is this an easy process? What about the logins and the maintenance plans and jobs? Is there anything else I need to be aware of?
I've never had to do this, but when I downloaded the Web Workflow Approvals Starter Kit, it requested that I install the database into a User Instance of .SQLEXPRESS.
Now the problem is, I've installed it onto a default instance, so I was wondering whether you can create a named instance on top of a default instance... and if so, how would you do that?
Hey guy's I am trying to develop something on a 64bit Vista machine. However, the SQL server 2005 import wizard is having a tough time importing my data because this machine does not have IIS.
I tried to install the regular version and it would not let me based on my system.
I'm sure this has been discussed in the forums before, but I'll ask anyways. I'm replacing our GP server next year to one that will run SQL2k5 64-bit. The current server is only capable of 32bit SQL. I know with some databases changing from x64 to x32 is a bad idea...will SQL Server support it?
I have found that orig tested 64 bit on our 64bit windows 2003server...about 1 year ago...and company decided to use sql 32 bit on the64bit osmy question and any information is very welcomeis there any things in need to know about awe withmemory above 4g ...whilst using 32 bit sql on a 64bit osi want to increase the memory on the server buti really don't know what im up against since this ismixed system 32 bit sql and 64 bit osthanksmike
