Can Sql Server 2005 Standard Be Used In A Production Enviroment?
Dec 1, 2005
I was wondering what was the limitations of Sql Server 2005 standard w/ 1 calThis is the version that is given out at the launch events.We are currently developing a site, that will use Sql Databases and was wondering if the version we have now will work.Like we know for a fact that the site will recieve a decent amount of traffic. Is standard limited to certain kind of sites and so forth?Thanks,Cedric

I believe it is possible to restore databases from Enterprise edition to an enviroment with Standard edition. We have been able to do it on databases without any partitioned tables. But if a database has partitioned tables it will not start up in the Standard edition after a successful restore. The error log states that the database will not start because partitions are not allowed in Standard edition (which we knew). But we were led to believe that the databases would restore and open fine, the partitions would just not be there in Standard edition. Are we possibly doing something wrong or will this just not work?
Thanks

Hello,
I have been made the point person for our migration to SQL2005. We are a law firm with approximately 750 users. The first SQL environment we will be upgrading is our document management system (DMS). This is an intensive SQL product. After this migration we will more of to our finical system, records system and then all home grown databases.
What we would like to do is consolidate servers and scale out the new SQL environment to a farm. After some initial research it does not look like we will be able to scale out, since the data in the DMS is always changing.
Does anyone have some advice or guidance on what direction we should be looking? I have done tons a online searches and can find out information on everything to do with SQL, except this.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff Carroll

I have a SQL Server 2005 evaluation that has already been installed and setup on a server. I believe it originally had a 180 day eval. There have been numerous databases and users added as well as maintenance plan created...
The eval was put on the machine as an interim solution while waiting for paper work and order processiing things to happen. All the paperwork and ordering... have been completed and I now have the real SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition license key ....
I am very new to SQL Server and need to determine ...
1. Can I update the eval copy to become permanently licensed?
2. Would I want to upgrade the eval to permanent? Will I lose any capabilities by keeping the current eval setup?
If it is reasonable to keep the eval setup
3. How do I go about entering the license key to make it permanent?
If it is necessary to install the new Standard Edition...
4. How do I install it while maintaining the already defined databases, data, users, maintenance plan...
Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Hi guys
We are in the processes of finalising or server architecture for our production environment and the proposal that has been put forward is to run the database within SQL Server 2005 which is running in a virtual machine. It is thought (by some) that this provides a very high degree of redundancy as it will use ESX server and will have multiple servers in the farm that it can move to in the event of a server crash (which i admit makes a degree of sense).
I however am worried about performance. I release as soon as you go to virtual you loose some raw power because the box is busy running the virtual but more from the point of view that if we make cretin hardware resources available to the virtual would the server run the same as if it was running on a physical machine of the same specifications. For example, if 4gb ram and x amount of clock cycles where dedicated to the virtual would it preform the same as running it on a physical box 4gb ram and x amount of clock cycles. If the answer is no, any supporting documentation that anyone knows of would be greatly appreciated.
As a side note if it makes any difference the database data files and transaction logs are being sorted in an external SAN and not within the virtual image itself.
Thanks
Anthony

Hi,
I have a central database server that is runnning on SQL 2005 standard edition and Windows server 2003 standard as OS.
I realise that I can use SQL statements to encrypt and decrypt the data inside the standard SQL.
However, how do I read and write the data via an web application coded in C#.net and is also running on the same machine?
Another issue is, I need to replicate some of the data in this SQL standard over to a SQL mobile running on a mobile device running on Windows CE 5.0.
The mobile device also needs to read and write data to the encrypted data via a C#.net application.
Question is, with all these requirements to be met, can I use AES? I know that AES is not available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2000 and I cant find AES in the .net compact framework.
how do i go about ensuring security? how do I ensure that the symmetric key is the same both on the SQL standard and SQL mobile?
thank you.

I have this simple full text search query that works perfectly on my own computer using sql server 2005 express, however, on the production server(shared hosting)when I added the first 50+ rows, the full text search works perfect, but as the number of rows increases, the full text search can only see the first50+ rows, but not the new ones. Is there any quick solution for this or it's just a common mistake for developers for not properly indexed columns?Is there a way to re-indexed all rows without loosing data on the live server? search query: SELECT TOP 50 *FROM li_BookmarksWHERE FREETEXT(Keywords,@Keywords)

I am trying to upgrade SQL Server Express 2005 Report Server to SQL 2005 Standard and it fails with the following error:
SQL Server Setup did not have the administrator permissions required to copy a file: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting ServicesReportServer
ssrvpolicy.config. To continue, verify that the file exists, and either grant administrator permissions to the account currently running Setup or log in with an administrator account. Then run SQL Server Setup again.
After I click OK on the message, this whole path where the upgrade is bieng installed dissapears C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting Services. The error is a bit missleading because the file that it is trying to copy rssrvpolicy.config does appear in that upgrade folder so I am not sure why it would try to copy a file that has already been copied.
I was able to upgrade the Database Engine instance fine but can't upgrade Reporting Services due to that error. I have verified that the account that ran the setup had the administrator permissions. Your prompt reply to my question would be greatly appreciatted.

Hi everyone,I am trying to connect to SQL Server 2005 Express with Advanced Services from Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition. I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition but it took up so much space and resources on my computer that I didn't want to put it back on there. So I put the SQL Express on there and while the Management Studio application connects just fine, VS 2005 will not. Oddly enough, VS 2005 connected just fine to SQL 2005 Standard. I have enabled shared memory, named pipes and TCP/IP. I have set up SQL Express to accept remote connections on named pipes and TCP/IP. And I have tried running SQL Express as the Local System Account, as a Local Service and as a Network Service. Nothing. I have tried feeding the Server Name is the Data Connections dialog in Visual Studio my SQL Express instance as (local)/SQLEXPRESS, localhost/SQLEXPRESS, and {computername}/SQLEXPRESS where {computername} is the name of my local computer which SQL Express is (allegedly) running on. And I cannot get the list of databases on that server.There is probably something very simple that I have left out. Can anyone see what it is?Thanks!

I need to install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on a new Windows Server 2003 machine that has SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installed by a backup application (Backup Exec). Will I need to uninstall the express edition in order to install the standard edition? Can the two coexist as separate instances or will the standard edition installation simply upgrade the express installation?
Thanks

Hi,
I am not using Express 2005 on my production server, rather I'm using SQL Server 2005 standard edition. So I have my site working perfectly on the development server, but once I publish it, the builtin aspnetdb that I use for logging in and such doesn't work.
I have another database my app uses and it works fine once I changed the connection string. So I think I just need to change the connection string all the fancy new login controls use. But I can't figure out how to do that.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

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!

Hi:
A friend of mine who works with oracle claims that they could not install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition to a drive other than the C: Drive. I know I could with Enterprise Edition and never tried with standard edition. Can any one please confirm that Standard Edition could be installed to a drive other than C: drive ?
Thank you

I am new to the forums, so hopefully this is the correct place for this question.
Is there somewhere to download the media for SQL Server 2005 Standard? I already have my licensing, and am wondering if you can avoid purchasing the media discs. I have done this with Windows Vista and Office 2007 in the past.

I'm new to SQL Server, and have just started to work through the MS Press ADO.Net 2.0 Step-by-Step book.
In the beginning of the book, at the point where the Add Connection box comes up, it says to type in the Server Name text box, (local)SQLEXPRESS, as the book takes for granted you have SQL Express installed, and hence this is the instance name.
I have Visual Studio 2005 Professional, and SQL Server 2005 Standard installed. What would the instance of SQL Server be in this case?
Any hope would be greatly appreciated.

I'm getting some conflicting information , regarding sql 2005 Standard Edition licensing for multi instancing.
If you have multiple instances of SQL 2005 Standard Edition on one Server, do you need to pay a server license for every Instance or just the one Server license?
