Buying And Installing SQL 2005
Jun 2, 2007
Greetings...
I don't know if you have this question being asked before, but I searched and I didn't find. I'm not an expert in SQL issues.
I'm used to doing some programming on ASP on my personal computer. I use the SQL 2000 as a database - I used to use to SQL 2000 enterprise manager to manage my database on my local computer or to enter my database on the web hosting companies. Any way, my question is: I have now windows vista. I'd like to install SQL 2005 to do my usual work.
What version of sql 2005 should have for this personal use as mentioned above?
I totally appreciate any help or additional information regarding this topic since i'm not an expert and still new in this field
Thanks

Hi all, Im new here so il start with a little introduction of myself, My name is Arjan im 19 years old from Holland, and i work for a company to compleet my ICT Education.
My situation:
My boss gave me a server with server 2003 standard and Sql server 2005 and visual studio 2005 installed already, he asked me if i could figure out how the 'new' reporting services work, Im pretty new to SQL and the reporting service but i figured out i had to install asp.net / frameworks and IIS.
So right now i wanna start the Reporting Services Configuration Manager and i get an error that says 'Invalid namespace' and when im trying to approach by using my browser i get 'page not found' so obviously their is Alot wrong. I asked my boss if i could not reinstall everything and do it in the correct order (IIS / ASP.net / Frameworks before installing SQL server 2k5 but that was not an option because we dont seem to have the cd's anymore.
The server is not connected to any network or the internet.
My Question:
Is their any way to fix this? and if yes could anyone tell me where to start
Thanks in Advance!
ps if their is information or logs that u need in order to help me just say so :-)

Our SQL Developer asked for a new server with a separate small hard disk for the Transaction Log alone to reside on, to increase performance. This will be hard to do, since the servers we have been looking at are low-profile rackmount, and only hold 2 SATA disks. I hate to waste our only expansion bay on a small HD. Is this really something important, or will a Quad-core processor and plenty of RAM make the performance difference negligible? We have 32-bit SQL2000 licensed per processor, and our database is only about 26GB. I was hoping to get 1 large disk and partition it into a 20GB OS partition, and the rest would be for SQL. Am I totally on the wrong track?
My 2nd question is about RAM - if we get 4GB of RAM, will it decrease the performance if we get 64-bit O/S pre-installed instead of 32-bit? I know 64-bit O/S *can use* more RAM than 4GB, but does it *need* more RAM for the same level of performance that we have now? (We are planning to expand that to at least 8-12GB whenever we upgrade to 64-bit SQL2005, but the budget does not allow it just yet.)
Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
I am looking to buy SQL Server for my home computer solely for the purpose of training for Exam 70-431 Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist: SQL Server 2005. My inclination is to buy SQL Server Developer Edition from Amazon.com for $41.99. Is this the best thing for me to do? What is the difference between Developer, Express and Standard in terms of training for the certification exam?
Thanks!

Does any one know of any good components I can buy in to sit on top of my SQL Server to provide the kind of search functionality that google has - 'Did you mean...,' nearset match etc. I have set up SQL Server Full Text but to build all the extra functionality will take some time and I think it will be more cost effective to buy a component in. If any one has used any could you let me know of you experinces please. CheersScott

Hi
I have installed SQL Server Express 2005 on my machine.
I want to install SQL Server Standard Edition 2005 on my machine to check new services it has.
Can these 2 Editions coexist with each other, or any troubles you think might encounter?
Thanks

Hi, I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 DE on Vista x64. I installed MS VS 2005 Pro. Edition. During the setup of VS, I did a custom install, un-checking the SQL Express addition box. After installation, I received errors that indicated the SQL Express did not install. Even though I do not have SQL Express installed on my machine, MS Update says that I need SQL Express SP2. My SQL DE is up to date with SP2 and MS Update indicates as "optional" that I need SQL SP2.
Is SQL Express a necessity for VS Pro? If not, why is MS Update indicating that I need SQL Express SP2? In addition, why is MS Update telling me I need SQL SP2 when it is already installed?
Note: I installed SQL SP2 manually, not through MS Update. This makes me believe that MS Update is not detecting it.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help,
Abel

I installed sql server 2005 sp2 including business intelligence development suite , however I got a message
some client components not compablitable .This morning I searched my programs and found that I have new
visual studio 2005 on my computer (before I just had vs 2008) as well as business intelligence
developer (which does not work) It seems I I would like to get rid of vs 2005 also
fix business intelligence studio . Previously I deleted vs 2005 express off my computer........(I have vista
and I would only like to keep tools meant for sql standard 2005 reporting services etc
here is a list of my sql sp2 install package
By the way I doubled clicked sql_tools.msi and did not run as administrator
Does that make a difference? I wonder if this is a problem with vs 2008 and sql 2005......

WinXP Pro
Installed Visual Studio Team Suite
Installed Team Explorer
Installed SQL 2005 with all the features turned on (so everything installs)
Result: None of the SQL Management Studio tools show up.
I checked ARP and see all the entries for Microsoft SQL Server 2005.
I also checked the Services and see SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER).
I also see SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) but don't see an ARP entry for it.
Any ideas on how to install the SQL 2005 Studio tools?
Thanks!

I have installed SQL on a Small Business Server 2003 running as a virtual server. When I try to install CRM 3.0 I get the error message:
"[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Invalid Instance()).]Invalid connection"
One of the suggested reasons is that "Microsoft Server Reporting Services is not supported using SQL Server 2005"
I would be grateful for any suggestions
Thanks

Hi,
What is the installer checking for when it determines that components have been found on the machine ?
If it is the Registry, what keys does it use ?

Hello Friends,
I need to install SQL server 2005 in my desktop. I have already installed Visual Studio 2005 and selected to install all add ons during initial installation of VS 2005.
Now, when i inserted my CD for installing SQL server 2005, there is nothing that has to be installed.
I checked that SQL 2005 Express edition is already installed in my system.
Kindly let me know, if by installing VS 2005 with all add ons will install SQL server 2005 as well?
Many thanks.
Regards,
Ramki

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone might be able to help me. I was trying to run SQL Server 2005 express edition after downloading it from the internet. I must admit i'm new to SQL server. So this is why i like to get a feel of how it works and that sort of things. However, when i tried to run it, it's saying that i needed .Net Framework 2. Then, after having downloaded the .Net and run the setup, the error message came up with the following message.
"Error creating process <c:Documen~1userslocals~1 empixp000.TMPInstall.exe>. Reason: c:windowssystem32advpack.dll"
It still gives me the same error message after updating the advpack.dll i got from the internet.
Has anyone had the same experience as i've been having now?
Any ideas as to solve it?
Thank you in advance

Hello
I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 on XP with SP2. According to Microsoft this should be sufficient. However when I try to install it says I need WIndows Installer 3.1. I cannot get this from Microsofts website as i'm not using a proper copy of XP.
Does anyone know a way round this before I go and buy XP?
This is the file I need...
WindowsInstaller-KB893803-x86.exe
To complicate matters further i'm running XP on my Mac via Virtual PC (but i'm told this shouldn't matter)
Thank you in advance

Hello
I have uninstalled SQL2005 on a virtual server in order to move the install to drive d: (was on c. SQL2005 has uninstalled however the service pack (1) is still there. When I try to reinstall sql it's giving me a 'minimum hardware requirements' error although all requirements are being met and the server is an exact copy of a virtual server which currently runs fine with SQL2005 on it. Is this due to the sp1 which is still there? If so, how do I uninstall it?
Thanks in advance
