I installed SQL Express and was able to create a new DB using Management Studio. I was able to copy over tables from another DB using DTS, but strangely the Native Client would not work I had to use OLE for SQL Server.
But I am unable to create a DSN to the database using ODBC Administrator. I keep getting Login Timeout expired error message, using both Native Client and SQL Server drivers. What am I missing?
Thanks

Hi all,
In my SQL Server Express (that is installed in my Windows XP Pro PC), SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration has Protocols for SQLEXPRESS. I tried to do "Enabling CLR Integration" in my SQL Server Express: (1) If I clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections", I got an error "An exception occurred in SMO while trying to manage a service, (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo) Additional information: Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum) The operation could not be completed. (WinMgmt). (2) If I clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Features, I got a different error "Computer localhost does not exist on the network, or the computer cannot be configured remotely. Verify that the remote computer has the required computer has the required Windows Management Instrumentation components and then try again. (SQLSAC) Additional Information: An exception occurred in SMO while trying to manage a service. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo). Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum) The operation could not be completed. (WinMgmt). Please help and tell me how I should do to get "Enabling CLR Integration" in my SQL Server Express done and how I can create SQLCLR Project in VB 2005 Express.
Thanks in advance,

I have a data model with several tables from which I can generate DDL.
But - I don't know how to apply the DDL to SQL Server Express to make it create a set of tables from my schema.
Please can someone advise me on how to do this.

Hi,
Please could someone let me know what the minimum Server and Database roles are for an Account to use SMO to create further accounts, using SQLSever accounts and not Windows authentication.
I'm finding it hard to find the right documentation.... Could someone give me a link into SQ Server Books 2005 (Express) online, that explains SQL Server security from the ground up. ie What all the roles are for etc.
Thanks

Hi,
I am trying to create a new Sql Express Database (.mdf file) from inside Visual Studio 2005. I did the following:
1) Created a Database Project in Visual Studio.
2) Choose Data Source to be Microsoft SQL Server Database File
3) Browse to a directory and enter a file name for the new database, say abc.mdf
4) When I click OK, Visual Studio prompts me if I want to create the database file, I click yes.
5) After a while, I get this error message:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
Then I opened SQL Server Configuration Manager, and I enabled Named Pipes and TCP/IP for both SQLEXPRESS and MSSQLSERVER. It prompts me that the settings will not change until the service is re-started.
When I go to Administrative Tools -> Services, I see that SQLServer (MSSQLSERVER) is started, and SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) is stopped. I can stop the MSSQLSERVER service. But when I tried to start SQLEXPRESS service, I get the following error message:
Windows could not start the SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Lo9g. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 17058.
I have Visual Stuio 2005 and Sql Server 2005 Installed on my machine, and I believe I am logged on using an administrator account.
Can someone help me to figure out what's wrong please?
Thanks and regards,
Alice

Using Visual Web Designer 2005 Express and SQL Server Express 2005 I am not able to create a "working" SQL database. I am able to use the NORTHWIND.MDF and other tutorial .mdf files without any problems. I am presently using an MS Access database without any problems. I was able to use the upsize wizard in Access to create a SQL database (which isn't recognized by VWD). I have downloaded the SQL Server Management Studio Express. OK, I think I'm ready to go. When I attempt to create a new SQL database through VWD 2005 I receive an error "Connections to SQL Server files (.mdf) require SQL Server 2005 Express to be working properly. Please verify the installation of the component..." I reinstalled the software, but get the same message.What am I missing please?
View 2 Replies View RelatedShort version - how can I create a server login for a remotely connected machine on a simple 2 computer XP home network connected via router?
Long version - I'm doing an Access-SQL Migration. I used the migration assistant (which creates DSN-less linked tables) to convert the data to SQL Server, and now I'm at the point of making all of the modifications to my Access front end so that the two play nice.
I have SQL Express running on my laptop. I would like to do the Access work on my desktop because a) I can work faster with the fullsize keyboard and b) the install at my client's location will include users hitting the database over their network and I'd like to simulate that while I'm making the modifications.
My Access front-end works 100% fine on my laptop. The Access front end will NOT connect when I run it on my desktop.
My guess is that this is due to not having a server login or DB user associated with the account on my desktop machine. In view of that, I'm trying to create those items on my server.
So, I open SSMS on the laptop and try to create a Server login. Under "Login Name:" I enter "DesktopAccountName" and it fails saying "Windows NT user or group 'DesktopAccountName' not found. Check the name again."
If I click the "Search" button next to "Login Name:" The only "Location" that I'm given is "LAPTOP" and that's greyed out preventing me from changing it.
Both machines are running XP home. My network is simply called "Home" if that means anything.
Help me please!

Hi,
I have created an installer for deploying Sql Server Express. My installer will start the process of installing Sql Server Express. However the installation of SqlServer Express will fail because it says another installer is currently running (which is my installer). Is there anyway to work around this problem?
The reason why I would like to create an installer for the installation of Sql Server Express is because I would like to configure the SqlServerExpress without the user fiddling with the ini file.
Thanks
Hi Guys,This is my first post and I hope I'm not going to embarrass myself to much.I am currently writing a pseudo install package for SQL Server Express, it is written in VB.Net 2.0.
I have created an *.exe that fires the SQL Server Express install package silently with command line options, once complete the *.exe copies an *.MDF and an *.LDF to the newly created data directory. Once the data has been copied I fire a "CREATE DATABASE FOR ATTACH" using a SQLClient.SQLCommand to attach my DB. I am using Windows Authentication for SQL Server Express.This all works beautifully when the *.exe is being run from a local hard disk - complete success.When I move the *.exe to a CD it fails . SQL Server is installed correctly, the files are copied to the local hard disk in the correct location. I then fire the "CREATE DATABASE" command - its here I get the error.The error details are:Unable to open the physical file "c:....Exchange.LDF". Operating System error 5:"5(error not found)". Cannot create file "c:....Exchnage.ldf" because it already exists. Change the file path or file name, and retry the operation. Could not open new database 'Exchange'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted. File activation failure. The physical file name "c:....Exchange.LDF" may be incorrect.Remember this works perfectly when run from the local hard disk, this only occurs when running from a CD-ROM.Now from the research I have done I believe it may be a permissions error. The setup *.exe is being run from a Administrator account and the SQL Server DB Engine Service Account is System. I'm under the impression that this should provide more than enough permissions.
Thanks for any help you guys may be able to provide...

Hi,
Apologies if this has been asked before, i've done a search but can't find a definitive answer.
I've created a table in an SQLExpress 2005 db using Server Managment Studio Express.
My intention is to use GUID fields as surrogate PK's. I therefore wanted to add a additional index to prevent duplicate records being added to the table. Not having used SQLServer before could someone confirm or deny that this is the correct way to do this. The PK field [EPISODEID{unique identifier}] is set as a non-clustered index. And i've created a second clustered index using the two fields that create a unique record. I've added a screen shot if that is any help.
Thanks

Our server currently has the following components installed for SQL Server 2005: 1. SQL Server Management Studio Express and 2. Configuration Tools (SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting, and SQL Server Service Area Configuration).
Is there a way to setup a package using the software currently installed (if not, what needs to be installed in order to setup a package)?
I'm looking to schedule running an executible, it was fairly easy with SQL Server 2000 (using DTS), but I'm unsure how to set this up using the software we currently have installed.

I have wrriten many stored procedures in the past without issue, but this is my first time using SQL Server Management Studio Express. I am having trouble creating a new stored procedure. Here is what's happening:
I am opening my database, right clicking on "Stored Procedures" and selecting "New Stored Procedure". A new window opens with a template for creating a stored procedure. The window is called: "SQLEXPRESS.DBName - sqlquery1.sql". I then type up my stored procedure without an issue.
However, when I go to save the stored procedure it wants to save it as a separate file in a projects folder. It does not become part of the DB (as far as I can tell).
When I used to use Enterprise Manager (not an option anymore) this never happened.
I'm sure I'm doing something dumb. Can someone enlighten me.
Thanks,Chris

Scenario:
I have installed SQL Express 2005 and I want to create a new DB using sqlcmd.
I am running a command like: sqlcmd -i file.ini (I am logged like Administrator of PC)
the content of the file.ini is:
-- Get the SQL Server data path
DECLARE @data_path nvarchar(256);
SET @data_path = 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabase'
-- execute the CREATE DATABASE statement
EXECUTE ('CREATE DATABASE DataCollection ON
( NAME = DC_dat,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DC.mdf'',
SIZE = 10,
MAXSIZE = 50,
FILEGROWTH = 5 )
LOG ON
( NAME = DC_log,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DClog.ldf'',
SIZE = 5MB,
MAXSIZE = 25MB,
FILEGROWTH = 5MB )'
) ;
GO
I obtain this error:
Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.
Msg 5123, Level 16, State 1, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 5(Access is denied.) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabaseDC.mdf'.
If I change the security of directory database (I add "modify" permission to Users windows group) the error disappear.
I am logged like Administrator... why is it necessary to change directory permission?
