Is there a difference between MS SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
I have installed a sample from the web and put it in my localhost inetpub folder, then i open up my SQL Server 2005 Express to attach the database from the App_Data directory, it throws an error below:
errors occur in both window and sql authentication login.
Error:

I m facing a strange phenomenon.
Please refer to below points.
environment:
------------------
windows XP sp2
SQL Server 2005 express [log on as 'network service'(by default)]
programming language: VC++(MFC)
There is a sample database in .mdf format which to be attached to SQL Server.
Ist case:
------------
I add MASTERDSN (for master databse) to ODBC by calling API SQLConfigDataSource() and then attach the sample DB to SQL Server by calling stored procedure 'sp_attach_db' through VC++ code.
On verification from SQL Server management studio express, the DB attached is in read only mode.
II case:
----------
I add MASTERDSN using ODBC data source administrator manually.
Now I add MASTERDSN (again with same name) by calling API SQLConfigDataSource() and then attach the DB to SQL Server by calling stored procedure 'sp_attach_db' through VC++ code.
Now on verification, the DB attached is not in read-only mode.
The problem is that why there is difference in behavior in both cases?
I want to get the sample DB attached in read-write mode in Ist case.
Hopefully waiting for ur response.
Thanks & Regards
Now that everyone helped me install SQL Server, it's time to use it... then...
I'm trying to work my through the MS Press book ADO.Net Step by Step. After installing the practice files, there is a step to attach the sample database provided. Within the folder which contains the sample files, I'm told to execute an app which I believe was called "Config.exe". This app brings up a form with 3 text-boxes, to collect the Server Name, Database Name, as well as the Database MDF Filename. There are also 2 buttons, "Attach" and "Detach".
This book assumes, that SQL Server Express is installed. In the book, the author does mention that if this isn't the case, to adjust the Server Name as necessary.
(The following do not include the quotes, but you probably already knew that...)
In the form mentioned above, the default Server Name is "(local)SQLEXPRESS",
I changed this to "(local)MSSQLSERVER".
The next text-box for Database Name contains: "AdoStepbyStep"
The last text-box for Database MDF Filename contains: "c:ADO.NET 2.0 SBSSampleDBsAdoStepbyStep_Data.MDF"
The path/spelling of the text in the above is indeed correct. Clicking the "Attach" button, results in the following:
--- ERROR ---
Function: AttachDB
Description: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBMSLPCN]InvalidConnection.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBMSLPCN]ConnectionOpen (ParseConnectParams()).
I've never used SQL Server, so please any advice needs to be at a relatively elementary level. I've primarily been a mainframe programmer, so this is new to me.
Thanxxxxxxxxxxxxx in advance for any replies!!!

And how do i do this?. or do i have to do it since there is a "DataDirectory" directive that manage this for me in the connectionstring?, im a little newbie about this :)
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to see the differences between Backup/Restore and Attach/Detach. I backup and detach a database from SQL Server 2000 SP3 and then attach and restore it to SQL Server 2005 SP1.
The differences I noticed are:
1. The restored database has a much larger initial size (database size is same) for data and log.
2. The attached database has a last backup date
3. If the backup is restored over a database, the restored database is showing owned by the database owner of the database restored over but syslogins and sysusers do not match.
I don't understand why #1 happens.
Are there any other differences between Backup/Restore and Attach/Detach?
Thanks,

After i reinstall SQL Server 2005 Express on my local machine, and then tried to attach AdventureWorks_Data.mdf into Database, it gives me the following error:

Can multiple instances of SQL 2005 Express attach to the same database files on a network share? I have seen this done before with MSDE where the database files are stored on the server, but instead of having a SQL server running on the network and then connecting to it, only the database files exist on the network share and the users connect through MSDE running on the local machine. Is this possible with SQL2005Express? I do not have the ability to share an SQL instance from one workstation to another nor do I have the ability to install an instance on the corporate server. Is it as simple as creating the database and storing the files on the share then attaching the database to the SQL Instance on each workstation?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a medical records system, SoapWare v4.90, that uses MSDE (SQL2000) databases. Due to the 2gb limitation, I am trying to migrate over to SQL 2005 (Standard or Express) which I have heard works fine. The SoapWare has a datamanager that allows me to log in to the MSDE instance, detach the SoapWare databases from msde (as well as do backups, etc) which I can confirm are detached.
Then I log back into a SQL2005 database instance using the datamanager and try to attach the database. This is what their pictured instructions demonstrate. However, I get the following error:
Database 'sw_charts' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
Of course, some of the entries will be read only, since doctors have to sign off the charts and are not allowed to subsequently change them. But I should still be able to switch over to sql 2005?!?!?!?
Or... is there a way to attach the databases to SQLExpress manually?
Help pls?

Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer.

If I detach a database on a server, then attach the database with asingle file only using the data file...will I lose any transactionsthat were in the original log file? There is a debate going on here atwork where some people think that during the detach, transactions inthe log file are saved to the data file.Thanks!

Hi,
I have a database that I developed using both Toad for SQL and SQL Server Managment Studio.
All was working fine. I could connect to the database with one of the above and also run two an applications I developed (one in C# and One in VB.NET using VS Express) using the standard SQLConnection class.
the following connection string worked fine...
Server="(local)"; Trusted_Connection="yes"; Database="CDEvolution";
Now, for one reason or another I decided to create a new data source in my Visual Studio project and pointed it to the database fine.
At first it seemed ok as I could see all tables from teh database. However somethign strage has happened. I now can't access the database in TOAD or SQL Server Managment Studio. I also couldn't connect using the above string.
I finally managed to get the two appllications I developed to access database using the following connection string...
Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataCDEvolution.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=6000;User Instance=True;
and the applications work fine, however I can access the database using the DB tools.
In SQL Server Managment Studio I remove the database and tried to attach it again but I keep getting the following error message...Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 5, object ID 1, index ID 1. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysindexes.
Could not open new database 'C:PROGRAM FILESMICROSOFT SQL SERVERMSSQLDATACDEVOLUTION.MDF'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
Any ideas on how I can get access back?

Hi,
We are trying to attach a Database from SQL7 to SQL2K SP3.
On SQL7
The Database was detached and the MDF copied to the New Server.
On SQL2K
We used the attach Db (in Enterprise Manager).
We get a red 'x' as normal against the logfile and noramlly it would create a new one when u proceed, but this time we are getting an error after the dialogue box asking to create a new one:
Error 1813: Could not open new database 'dbname'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
Device activation error. The physical file name 'd:mssql7datadbname.ldf' maybe incorrect.
The path is where the logfile resided on the old server.
Regards
John.
