Can Express Be Linked With 2000 Standard?
May 2, 2008
I'm considering upgrading from MSDE 2000 to Express 2005.
Before I do that I need to know if my linked server dependant
scheduled jobs will continue to function properly.
Here's my current configuration:
I have a local SQL Server 2000 Standard edition box linked via IP address to a remote MSDE 2000 SQL Server. This link
uses SQL authentication.
I want to upgrade the remote MSDE server to 2005 Express. Will my local 2000 SQL Server link successfully with a 2005 Express server?
Also, I have 2000 Developer Edition on my machine and am using Enterprise Manager where I have registered the remote MSDE so I can easily manage the server. Will I be able to register a 2005 Express server or will I need to upgrade my developer machine to 2005? If I do upgrade my developer machine, will I still be able to register the 2000 Standard Sql Server?
If there are any other issues with running a mixed environment like the one described here, please speak up! I want to make an informed
decision.
Thanks so much for your help!

How do SQL 2000 service packs play a role in upgrading? That is, can SQL 2000 Standard with no Service Packs(SP) be upgraded to SQL 2005 Standard, or does SQL 2000 Standard have to have a certain service pack??

Hi,
I am hiring a server at a hosting company. This server contains a dozen websites that i made and they all have their own database.
Well, i received a message from my hosting company that they go to remove the SQL 2000 Standard and replace it by SQL 2005 Express.
What do I have to think about that? Can this give database connection problems?
Thanks for your answers.

The problem can be seen in Enterprise Manager for 2000 (all service packs), Service Manager for MSDE (2000 all service packs), and OSQL (2000 all versions).
The exact problem is as follows:
In a network environment if SQL EXPRESS (problem does not occurr with 2005 Standard) is installed using defaults
SQL 2000 & MSDE machines will no longer see instances. This is a browser issue for 2000 and MSDE. For some reason the response back to the 2000 machine from the EXPRESS machine causes the 2000 machine to stop listening for reponses.
If you have a network with SQL 2000/MSDE machines that have named instances (default instance is not affected) they will lose sight of eachother when a SQL EXPRESS box is put on the network with its SQL browser service running. We have tried service pack 3a and 4 on the 2000 boxes and it does not resolve the issue. It may resolve issues with 2005 and 2000 on the same machine but this problem is with networked machines and doesn't appear to be the same issue. The SQL EXPRESS machine will be able to see all the
named instances from the 2000 boxes and the 2000 machines usually will only see the EXPRESS named instance until the EXPRESS box SQL Browser service is stopped.
No word from Microsoft so far.
DOES ANYONE HAVE A SIMILAR ENVIRONMENT AND RUN INTO A SIMILAR ISSUE?

I have been trying to figure out for some time why Linked Servers do not continue to run. I start up my SQL Server Database service, and then using SQL Server Management Studio I create one or more linked servers to Microsoft Access Databases using the Jet Provider. I then run some queries to that access those linked servers without any problems. (One currently is called 'THE')
After some time has passed, possibly minutes, hours or days, I can no longer access any of the linked servers. No data, queries, tables, or anything is accessible to me anymore. I use this command "EXEC sp_testlinkedserver N'THE' " to test the linked server and get the following error msg.
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "THE" returned message "Unspecified error".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_testlinkedserver, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "THE".
The only solution I have to fix this currently is to restart the SQL Server Database service. I have tried deleting and recreating the Linked server before doing this to no avail. I have also used the FileMon and RegMon tools on the server to try to determine the problem but have no no success. After restarting the SQL service I can run the "EXEC sp_testlinkedserver N'THE' " command successfully "Command(s) completed successfully." and can access the linked servers again without any problems.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Mark.
P.S. I have tried changing the security options on the linked server from "Be made without a context." to using the "Admin" username and leaving the password blank, to several other possible variations and options, as well as setting up the system.mdw database in the registry to no avail.

Hello!I would like to change the SQL server 2000 from Standard version toDevelopment edition. I have two database running on this server, bothreplicated, with few jobs, etc ... Can you recommend the easiest way to dothis? I heard, it would be as easy as, detaching the databases, deletingcurrent SQL software, installing different one, and attaching the olddatabases back. I doubt that is true, so that's why I'm asking here for anyreal-life instructions.Thanks for your input!Kind regards,Dejan--

Hi,
We are in the midst of developing/upgrading an online store in ASP.net 2.0 that typically gets about 100,000+ hits per week and we are considering MS SQL 2005 Express as its free to use. My question is how will MS SQL 2005 Express support so many concurrent visitors and will MS SQL 2005 Standard / MS SQL 2005 Workgroup be a better option as far as performance?
Thanks,
Kamran

Hello, can I run the express edition on my desktop and test web site with it, but then deploy the same app to my webhost and have it use SQL2005 standard? (They don't support the express edition.)
I'm new to SQL2005 and am curious. In fact, I still don't totally understand if express is installed or just a file like access. :)
Thanks!

Hi friends,
I want to install Visual Studio .NET 2005.
I've seen that there are several questions about upgrading from SQL Express to Standard edition, so I though that if it's possible, first I install SQL Server Standard and then during installing Visual Studio I don't install SQL Express that is by default is installed, but I don't know is it possible to introduce Standard edition instead of Express edition to Visual Studio? and if it's possible, how can I do it?
would you help me?
thank you in advance.

Good day all, I apologize if this is somewhere and I didnt search enough. I currently have a nice internal application that provides company wide visibility into some key data. Im now being asked to create some reports from an Oracle 9i platform in SQL 2005 Reports Server. However the ORACLE data extension is not allowed in the express edition so Im stuck for a moment. I would like to do an inplace upgrade of my existing MS SQL server from 2005 express to 2005 standard. However, I am a little concerned it might break some things. Has anyone achieved this with great results, a mixed bag, or totally blown up their server? I would like to know the good, bad and then down right ugly details of this if there are any. I am currently running a windows 2003 server with MS SQL 2005 Express (Advanced edition to get the Report Server in there). Is it at all possible to do an inplace upgrade from Express to Standard edition and not lose any connectivity permissions, reports server and so on? Would there be 2 seperate installations one for SQL Server and another for the Report server?
Thanks in advance for all your replies, Ive used this forum on many occasions and learned alot along the way. I hope someone here can help.

I have SQL Server 2005 Express that was installed with SharePoint Server 2007. I'm trying to upgrade it to SQL Server 2005 Standard edition and it gives this "Edition Change Check (Warning)" message:
"To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter."
I tried "setup skuupgrade=1" from the command prompt, but it's giving me the same message.
Can someone tell me how to correctly make the upgrade?

We are developing a new online booking system with asp.net and looking for optiosn for the data store. Currently the PHP applciation utlizes MySQL but we would like to use SQL Server in the rewrite.
What limitations would we run into with Express over Standard for such a system? Is the 4GB size limit and advanced SQl features such as replication, etc the only differences? We are looking for something to run on a dedicated or VPS based Windows server that will only be running our app and database. System is an online hotel type booking system with approx 7000-12000 transactions per month which may double in the coming year.
Express certainly has a cost advantage but we don't want to run into issues with this version if there are any we should watch out for.

I have installed VS2005 with SQL Server Express. I used this setup for about a month. Now i have SQL Server Standard Edition. I am confused about how to swap them over. Everything is running on the same machine - i just want to use SQL Server Standard instead of SQL Server Express. Can anybody explain how to get this up and running?
Also will membership, profiles and the other built in providers work with this? - Thanks for any help!

I've got some applications which need .NET 3. And since theoretically .NET3 is using .NET2's runtime (CLR), I'm told that applications for .NET2 should work in .NET3 as well. But I would still like to ask to have a confirmation:
Can SQL 2005 Standard edition and Express work with .NET 3 or .NET 3.5? Has Microsoft tested this and can confirm this?
TIA

I'm not a developer and would like your input to compare against what a sales rep is telling me.
I'm managing a small web project that will have a database with a max of 20,000 records with less than 50 field each. It will be hit by anything from 200 to 500 people in a day (max) via Internet connection from all over with all sorts of speed.
The users will select less than 50 filters to obtain the results of the info they are looking for among the 20000 records. Most users will only choose less than 10 filters per search.
That's all that the database will do...seems to me enterprise is way too much, but since I'm not expert, need one of you to help with your input.
Thanks very much!

Hi all!
I keep getting an error when I try and create a new data connection. This is the error I'm getting:
Unable to connect to database.
It is only possible to connect to SQL Server Desktop Engine databases and Microsoft Access with this version of Visual Studio.
I can connect to Access without any problems. Is there anyway around this?
I'm using C# .net Standard with SQL Server 2000.
Thanks for any help.

Hi there
Our ISP hosts our data on SQL Server Enterprise, but I also going to host the databases on my local machine.
As it's just local would Standard edition do? If I migrate the databases over, will it work?

Hi
I want to Upgrade my express instance "Officeservers" to standard. I have installed Sql Server 2005 standard, but
the MOSS 2007 installs default Officeservers to express. The reason to upgrade is to use the maintenance plans to backup the instance. I have a report server on a different instance (standard).
Do I upgrade with SKUUPGRADE=1 and this is all ?
Do I need to run sp2 after this and does this affect my report server ?
Thanks for your help.
regards

We are needing to script to find out if our servers have a full version of SQL Server installed or if it is just SQL Express that is used by one of our backup software vendors. How can we do this? Currently, we are having to go into each server and look at the SQL console. Anything that someone can suggest would be greatly appreciated as we have hundreds of servers to go through.
Thanks much in advance.

Hi Guys,
Having some problems Upgrading from SQL Express 2005 SP2 to SQL 2005 Standard. I'm getting the following:
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
Reason: Your upgrade is blocked. For more information about upgrade support, see the "Version and Edition Upgrades" and "Hardware and Software Requirements" topics in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online.
Build version check:
Your upgrade is blocked because the existing component is a later version than the version you are trying to upgrade to. To modify an existing SQL Server component, go to Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel, select the component you would like to modify, and then click Change/Remove.
Pretty sure that I have to have SQL 2005 Std w/SP2 but I don't have a CD with it on. Is there a way that I can create one so that I can upgrade the SQL Instance In-Place.
Thanks in advance
Michael

That is can I install both SQL Server Express 2005 and Standard in the same machine ????
How can I address the different instances of SQL Server ????
Thanks in advance

Can the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio interact with local SQL 2005 Express databases. So can we use one management tool for both our server (non-local) SQL 2005 Databases and our local SQL 2005 Express databases (That the developers have free reign over).
Any tips and tricks for this kind of setup?
