It was working find when both the HO and stores were SQL-Server 2000. but the process has come to a dead halt as the HO has SQL-Server 2005. It is not possible to convert the stores immediately. please help me out.
I have a client that has POS software called Restaurant Pro Express (RPE) from www.pcamerica.com Their old POS computer had a hardware failure, but I was able to attach the hard-drive to another computer and recover the data. RPE uses a MSSQL database system. However, my client doesn't seem to make backups very often - the last one is dated January 5, 2015.
I was able to copy the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server folder over which contained the instance as well as all the data files - and has up-to-date information. The instance in the recovered Microsoft SQL Server folder was called MSSQL.1. I installed the RPE software on their new computer, and it too now has an instance called MSSQL10_50.PCAMERICA. The new computer is using MSSQL 2008 R2, while I believe the old computer would have been using MSSQL 2005.
I have a file backup database SQL Server 2000 I want to restore it to SQL Server 2005. But it failed. I try : Database ( right-click) - Restore Database - From Device - Specify Backup Add Locate Backup File. I must choose File of Type is All File so that i can find file backup from SQL 2000, if i choose File of Type is *.bak,*.trn so i cannot find that file. And then i choose OK all. But it failed. The error is below :

I am maintaining a .net 1.0 asp.net web application that accesses a SQL server 2000 database. I need to backup the database and then restore it on a laptop. Currently it resides on a server. The problem is that on the server they are using sql server 2005. If I backup using 2005 and then try and restore this database using SQL server 2000 or 2005 on the laptop, I get an error message. "Too many backup devices specified for backup or restore; only 64 are allowed. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally. What can I do to restore the database? Must it be backed up with SQL server 2000 and then restored with SQL Server 2005? Please help!

Hello, Sorry for my question, I know, that there were several topics about sql 2000 vs SQL 2005, I read all them but unfortunately I haven't got the correct answer. I must install my intranet application that uses asp.net 2.0 and SQL 2005 Express to a Windows 2003 server with SQL 2000. It is possible to install SQL 2005 Express beside the 2000 server? It is very important, because I have no possibility to test and that Win2003 server there are a few programs that use SQL 2000. What will happen with the 2000 databases and their programs if I install the 2005 Express to the server? They will work fine with 2000 and my application will work with 2005? Or instead it should I configure my application to use 2000 capable connentionstrings?
Hi,I need to know the way in which I can copy my sql server 2005 database from one computer to another ? Please I need a clear and complete explanation ,thanx .
I am working with one other person on a VS 2005 vb.net web project that accesses SQL Server 2005. Both the computers are connected and my partner can run the application on his computer from his VS 2005 but we are getting an error on our first databind to a gridview on the page we are trying to run the error is below A connection was successfully established with theserver, but then an error occurred during thepre-login handshake. When connecting to SQL Server2005, this failure may be caused by the fact thatunder the default settings SQL Server does not allowremote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider,error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)
I check the properties of the SQL Server and the check box is checked that says allow remote access. I am not sure what to do.

I have tried to Attach Database or attach this backup file in Sql Server2005 but it also fails .

I have a very basic console application whose sole purpose is to query a database on the same local computer. When i run the application, i get the error message below: Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user 'someDomainSomeUserName'. Below is my connection string also myconnection_string = New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:Reporting SystemApp_Datasafetydata.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"). After some googling, some post pointed to deleting a user folder at : C:Documents and SettingsmyusernameLocal SettingsApplication DataMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server DataSQLEXPRESS but still deleting that folder and restarting the machine doesn't help and i also have remote connections enabled. Help is really needed. NOTE: The same application runs on a different computer with XP but fails on the Pc with windows server 2003.
I was running Small Business Server 2003 with MS SQL Server 2000. I put backups of all my SQL Server 2000 databases on hard disk d: and the operating system and applications on c:/. I then reformatted c:/ (but left d:/ intact) and installed Windows XP Home. Then I installed MS SQL Server 2005 Developer's Edition.
I would like to now restore the backups of the SQL Server 2000 databases (still intact on drive d:/) to SQL Server 2005, but I get a variety of error messages.
I suspect that I am going about this the wrong way. I have done several hours of research in the documentation without success. I cannot attach the SQL Server 2000 database to SQL Server 2005 because it is a backup, not a database. I cannot migrate the databases as part of the installation of SQL Server 2005 because (a) they are back-ups, and (b) I don't have SQL Server 2000 installed when I install SQL Server 2005.
I have a database backup from Server Express 2005 that I want to restore to SQL Server 2000. I keep getting an error message saying it was created a newer version and wont work. Is there a workaround to this.
Sorry for basic question, But i dont know more about SQL Server, During Last weak , i have bought a new server with Plesk 7.6 that SQL Server 2000 Express is installed on it, I want to know how can i restore databases that comes from other servers, for example restore a SQL Server 2000 Express backup file on this server? is there any special software? Another question is about changing Collation of a database how can i change collation of databases that i make with SQL Server 2000 Express?
I have never done this in a DR scenario before. What I used to do in SQL Server 2000 was apply the logins to a new installation of SQL 2000 then recover the application databases. I'm using 2005 now and I'm in a different mode where I would like to be able to recover the system (master, model, msdb) to a different server with the same SQL Server 2005 build ---- 9.0.3054. I'm following the procedures from Microsoft where they state to place the instance in single user mode first then invoke SQLCMD then perform the restore. Sounds simple enough. C:> SQLCMD > RESTORE DATABASE MASTER from DISK = 'Z:MINIDRmaster_backup_200804200315.bak'
The console is coming back with a message that the backup set holds a backup other than the existing master database. So I suppose that this cannot be done and is only intended for recovery on the same instance.
Hello, I have two servers (both of them with sqlserver2005) : SERVER3 with the Database: ReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB and SERVER5 with the Dabase: ReportServerTempDB.
I''ve got a backup of the database in SERVER3, and I want to restore it in the database of SERVER5. As you see, they have different names(I don't know if this is a problem....)
So I try doing the following:
RESTORE DATABASE [ReportServerTempDB]
FROM DISK = N'C:TFSReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB_backup_200805282200.bak'
WITH FILE = 1, NOUNLOAD, REPLACE, STATS = 10
MOVE 'ReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB' TO
'C:Archivos de programaMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataReportServerTempDB.mdf',
MOVE 'ReportServer$SQLSERVER2005TFSTempDB_log' TO
'C:Archivos de programaMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataReportServerTempDB_log.ldf',
GO
And I am getting the following error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near 'MOVE'.
Does anyone know why is throwing this error? Thanks a lot!
My customer has SQL Server 2005. I have SQL Server 2000 on my laptop (on XP Pro). I believe I have an empty database the same as theirs, but I need to restore their data. They sent me a normal SQL Backup, but my laptop threw a fit and cannot work with it.
They are now trying to export the database to Microsoft Access and send me that, but I won't get that until next week now. However is there a better and easier solution for those of us with insufficient experience of this, please?
When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;
Performing operation...
- Add log for package (Success) - Add task for transferring database objects (Success) - Create package (Success) - Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success) - Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error) Messages * The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)
When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;
InnerException-->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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).
I had a database in sql server 2005 under instance name 'rohitcvman'. I took its backup. The computer is formatted and sql server 2005 is installed again with instance name 'rtamrakarcvmanager'. When I try to restore it, it ends up with the following message (copied from message box).

I have not tried to restore/attach in the same instance name from which it was backed up. Is it compulsory to have same instance name to attach/restore?
I am using SQL server 2005 9.00.3042 . When I go to databases restore, restore to Northwind, from device I select backup device and select SDLT. The actual backup device is LTO3. The error is an exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement of batch
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion or the server is not responding. I checked and we have no firewall turned on this server
I tried on another SQL 2005 9.00.3042 server - this one has an SDLT drive and the error is similar Restore headeronly is terminating abnormally
Is there a way to grant rights to a user to be able to restore a specific database on a server, without being able to muck around with other databases on the server?
We have an old machine which holds SQL server 2000 database. We need to migrate a whole database to a new machine which has SQL server 2005.
When we tried to move whole database using Import and Export Wizard, only tables can be selected to import/export. However we want to import/export the whole database, including tables, stored procedure, view, etc. Which tool should we use?

I am using sql server 2005 and unable to restore backup file(.bak) file when i ry to restore it to other database it shows following error

I'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?
I have a database called 'DB1' in SQL Server 2000. I want to create the same database in SQL Server 2005 Express including the original data in tables. How would I do that? I cannot find any option to do this upgrade in SQL Server Management Studio.
We have experienced an issue with back backup / restore of a database originating from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2003.
We have the following setup:
SQL Server 2000
- DatabaseA
- asdfUser (SQL User)
- asdfUser is (dbowner) of DatabaseA
- DatabaseB
- asdfUser (SQL User)
- asdfUser is (dbowner) of DatabaseB
SQL Server 2005 Standard
-asdfUser is NOT Setup as a user yet.
-We restore DatabaseA and DatabaseB to the SQL Server 2005 Standard. The databases are restored with the security permissions of asdfUser being the DB Owner of DatabaseA and DatabaseB.
-We create a new SQL user named asdfUser on the SQL Server 2005 box. We then try to add the UserMapping of DBOWNER for the DatabaseA and DatabaseB. We receive an error message stating that the asdfUser already have permissions to the databases. We proceed with the user creation without those permissions.
-We proceed to the login properties of the asdfuser and view their UserMappings. The asdfUser does not have access to DatabaseA or DatabaseB. We then add the UserMapping of DBOWNER to both DatabaseA and DatabaseB. We Try to select OK and we receive an error message that states that the user already has those permissions.
-When we query the UserID's of the asdfUser that is in the database and the UserID of the asdfUser that is created, they are two different values.
Hello: I have an old database created in SQL Server 2000, now I can open, access it in SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, but I can't create Data Diagrams. Please advise on how to make it work.... Thank you
