Cannot Upgrade SQL Server 2005 Express To SP2 After Upgrading SQL Server 2005 Enterprise To SP2

Feb 18, 2008

How do I upgrade Sql Server 2005 Express to SP2 if I also have SQL Server 2005 Enterprise SP2 already on the same box? I installed Sql Server 2005 Enterprise first, then applied SP2, then installed Visual Studio 2008 (which installed SQL Server 2005 Express).

When I try to upgrade Sql Server 2005 Express to SP2 using the special Express edition of SP2, I get an error message that says "None of the selected features can be installed". I end up having to cancel the install of SP2.

I'm left with SQL Server 2005 at level 9.0.3054 and SQL Server 2005 Express at 9.0.3042. How can I bring SQL Server Express 2005 to the same level as SQL Server 2005 Entperprise?

Upgrade From SQL Server 2005 Express To 2005 Enterprise Fails

Dec 29, 2006

Hi

I am trying to upgrade SQL Server 2005 Express to SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition.
(As a Preparation to install SQLServer2005 Service Pack 2 (CTP))

I tried to upgrade a particular Instance (OFFICESERVERS, which was based on SQL Server 2005 Express ).

During the upgrade I get a message saying that ...

.....Your upgrade is blocked because of edition upgrade rules.....

All other components I selected for Installation are propertly installed (Analysis, Reporting)

The setup log contains the following detail information:

I also tried to explicitly upgrade the OFFICESERVERS instance by executing Setup from the command shell:

start /wait setup.exe ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=OFFICESERVERS UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUU

The result is the same, i.e.... Your upgrade is blocked because of edition upgrade rules...

Does anybody know about this problem?

previously installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Version 9.00.2047.00)

Problems Upgrading SQL Server 2005 X64 Evaluation To SQL Server 2005 X64 Enterprise

Oct 25, 2007

I first tried installing the DVD and of course it told me I must use the command prompt installation method to include the line SKUUPGRADE=1. I found good references to this in the following links:

http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2208593&SiteID=1

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx


Below is the command I issued at the command prompt:

start /wait d:serverssetupsetup.exe ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTANCENAME=URHCS63SQL2005DSS UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 /qb


My servername is URHCS63 and my instance is SQL2005DSS.

When I execute this command, a installation dialog box opens briefly and then disappears and nothing else happens. Here are the results of the bootstrap log file:

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 9.00.3042.00

SQL Server Setup was interrupted. For more information, review the Setup log file in %ProgramFiles%Microsoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOGSummary.txt.

Any ideas on why this is not working for me?

Upgrading MS SQL Server 7 SP4 Standard To 2005 Enterprise (Eval Edition)

Jun 6, 2006

Hello, you all,

I did all the stuff necessary for the upgrading (the Upgrade Advisor didn't say anything special), but the Setup says the following:

"
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 7.00.1063
Cause: The update is blocked. You can obtain more informations in the online help "Versions- and editionsupdates".

Editions problem:
The update is blocked because of rules for the editions update.
"

Is it possible that an upgrade is not possible with the evaluation edition? Or can there be another cause?

Thanks in advance

Verify LicenseType After Upgrading From SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation/Trial

Jun 27, 2006

I upgraded a MS SQL 2005 Enterprise Evaluation/Trial to MS SQL 2005 Standard Edition with 5 User CAL.

I used the following command to upgrade:

start /wait setup.exe ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 PIDKEY=<mykey> /qb

Once complete, "select SERVERPROPERTY('LicenseType')" returns DISABLED, but I expected that it would return PER_SEAT.

Thankfully, after the upgrade it does show EDITION=Standard Edition.

Questions:

1. How do I verify the license installed is the Client Access License of 5?

-- SQL Server 2005 does not seem to have the same SQL Licence control panel as did SQL 2000. It is not listed under Control Panel -> Licensing (only thing listed is 'Windows Server') nor under Administrator Tools -> Licensing.

2. How do you add CALs or change license type in SQL 2005?

-- I was also puzzled that I was not asked during setup of the license mode and/or number of licenses ( I did not get this on a fresh install of SQL 2005 SE either ).

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Upgrade From SQL Express 2005 Report Server With Advanced Services To SQL 2005 Standard Fails

Feb 25, 2008

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.

Upgrading Localized MSDE-server To The English Version Of SQL Server Express 2005?

Aug 6, 2007

Hello,

at the moment I have the following problem:
We have installed a version of the MSDE 2000 Sp3 with our software since 2005. Now we install SQL Server Express 2005 in order to use the latest version and to be compatible with Vista.
We have never had any problems with the MSDE, so it was no problem that we installed the german version (by mistake) because there never was any output at installation time.
When we now upgrade the existing MSDE installing the new version of our software, there are often problems and there are error messages, unfortunately in german, which cannot be read by most of our international users.

The problem is, that there seems to be no possibility to upgrade the existing (german) MSDE with the english version of SQL Server Express 2005.
My question is, if it is possible to upgrade the german MSDE to the english SQL Server 2005 to enable our international users to read the error messages at installation time in english?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Peter

SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Eval Upgrade To Licensed Version

Sep 7, 2007



We have been using the 180 day evaluation version and I have my license key now for the purchased version. I read on the Microsoft site I am able to upgrade to the non-trial version without uninstalling the eval version. But it doesn't tell me HOW to do it. I was expecting a menu option, maybe on the About Screen of Management Studio to enter it. (How naive is that?) Is there a simple way to tell the Eval version I am now licensed?

TIA

SQL Server 2005 Express - Upgrading Will Lose Data?

Apr 26, 2006

Hi - quick question.

I wanted to upgrade pre-release version of SQL Express to the latest version, and wanted to make sure that none of the database information would be lost. The thing that concerns me is that it states to uninstall previous versions of SQL Server 2005 Express before installing the latest version. I threw the database tables into a backup directory, and I think this should be fine, but I want to be sure. Let me know. Thanks!

Error Upgrading SQL Server 2005 From Standard Edition To Enterprise Edition (x64)

Apr 10, 2008

I am attempting to upgrade a 2005 Standard Edtion to Enterprise Edition. This is a default instance. All components are upgraded successfully except the Database Engine. I receive the following error:


SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The certificate cannot be dropped because one or more entities are either signed or encrypted using it.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again.


This installation does not have encryption enabled, so I do not undersand the error or how to correct it.

After rebooting the SQL instance appears to be upgraded to Enterprise, but it cannot be upgraded to SP2.

Upgrade SQL Server Express 2005 To SQL Server 2005

May 23, 2008

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade my system from SSE 2005 to SS 2005, when I ran Upgrade Advisory it fails with several errors that identified as blocked failure..
Here are some of the warning and errors:


Warning on SQL Server component (Insatance Name SQLEXPRESS) - "SQL server version 09.00.3054 is not supported by this release of Upgrade Advisory"

On the Reporting Services - "Virtual Directory settings do not match the default configuration"


On the Reporting Services - "Other Reporting Services upgrade issues"

On the Reporting Services - "Custom virtual directory settings block edition upgrade"


On the Reporting Services - "Custom extensions are deployed on the report server"
I tried to follow the instructions to Reporting Services Upgrade Issues but it didn't help..

Is it me or someone else run into this same problem? Any KB on this somewhere?

Other question is - can I install both versions on the same system without a problem?

Thanks,

T.

Not sure if this was posted but having a hard time finding an answer.
I'm currently running sql server 2000 enterprise edition on my machine and was wondering what would happen if i installed 2005 express edition and vice versa? I've found many blogs and post about compatibility issues with the 2005 Express Beta version but couldn't find any news with full version. It would be much appreciated if someone can help me out with this problem.

SQL 2005 Express On Server 2k3 Enterprise

Feb 21, 2006

After a few failed installs I have gotten SQL2k5Exp installed. I have update my .net and my XML. I had the server running fine for about a week. The server still 'runs' fine, but when I connect to it with Server managment studio express I can't do anything with it. It will not allow me to expand the 'System Databases' It gives the error:

"Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum)

Additional information:

An exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.

(Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.ConnectionInfo)

A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - The pipe has been ended.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 109) "

I get just about the same error if I try to attach a database, the only change is the error code at the end.

After this error the SQL server service stops. I can restart it from the Services snap-in, but not inside SMSE. It will start and stop if i try to start it in SMSE.

I also find these types of errors in my event log:

"SQL Server is not ready to accept new client connections; the connection has been closed. Wait a few minutes before trying again. If you have access to the error log, look for the informational message that indicates that SQL Server is ready before trying to connect again. [CLIENT: <local machine>]"

"The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 8 time(s)."

"The SQL Server Active Directory Helper service terminated with service-specific error 3221225572 (0xC0000064)."

Any ideas on this?

Hi all,

My question might be a little bit unusual, but is it possible to upgrade SQL 2005 Express (the free version of SQL) to SQL 2000 Server without any loss of functionality?

Where do I have to pay attention to when doing this?

Thanks in advance!

SQL Server Express Upgrade To SQL Server 2005 Workgroup

May 7, 2008

Hi All,

A client of mine was using SQL Express and soon realised this doesn't meet his needs performance or database size wise. He also realised that SQL Server 2005 Workgroup came free with his R2 version of SBS.

So in essence, I have been trying to find the Microsoft recommended way to upgrade from Express to Workgroup. I have not been able to find a step-by-step guide and to add to my confusion, when I run the work-group installer it tells me to run the installer with a switch which I have gone ahead and done but when selecting components it has all of them defaulted to blanked out.

Surely the process for an in-place upgrade should not be so technical as I am finding it ? To my mind, the natural progression would be to upgrade express to a better capable version of 2005 and should be as easy as pie.

Anyway, I am basically looking for a step-by-step guide on how to upgrade to get it done right the first time as opposed to upgrading and than realised some remenants of Express are still larking about causing trouble.

Regards,
QS

MSDE Upgrade To SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2

Sep 26, 2007

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade MSDE 2000 to MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) using a silent install.
MSDE on our systems is installed as a standalone product. There is only a single default instance (MSSQLSERVER) running on the system. SQL Authentication mode is being used.
When I try and upgrade MSDE 2000 directly to MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2, the install fails with an error:

"SQL Server Setup Cannot Upgrade the specified instance by using SQL Server Credential. You must use Windows Authentication credential for the upgrade"

When I try to upgrade the default instance of MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 selecting Windows authentication (logging in as a domain/local administrator to the server), the install fails with an error:

"Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user <mydomain><AdminID>"

However, MSDE 2000 upgrade to an earlier version of MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Build 9.00.1399.6) using SA Authentication works successfully without any errors.

So I tried to upgrade our MSDE installation to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) as a 2 step process. First by upgrading MSDE to SQL Server 2005 (Build 9.00.1399.6) using SA Authentication which works successfully as mentioned earlier.

However, when I try and upgrade SQL Server 2005 (Build 9.00.1399.6) to SQL Server 2005 SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) using SA Authentication, I receive the same error as before:

"SQL Server Setup Cannot Upgrade the specified instance by using SQL Server Credential. You must use Windows Authentication credential for the upgrade"

When I upgrade using Windows Authentication, the setup displays the following error:

"[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Password validation failed. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again"

The log file content for the error is:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL_ERROR (-1) in OdbcStatement::execute_batch

The registry entries suggest that the version now is 9.00.3042.0. However, I am not sure if the upgrade was successful. I can connect to the database using the old SA user ID and password.

If anyone else has faced similar issues, please let me know the workaround for the same.

Thanks and Regards,

MSDE Upgrade To SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2

Sep 28, 2007

Hi,

I am planning an upgrade from MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) for our 2000/2K3 Servers. The MSDE installation on our servers is a standalone installation (default instance) and uses Mixed Mode Authentication. When I execute the setup program for upgrade and choose SQL Server Authentication (and enter the corresponding SA user Id password), the setup program displays an error "SQL Server Setup cannot upgrade the specified instance by using SQL Server Credential. You must use Windows Authentication credential for the upgrade". However, when I select Windows Authentication for the upgrade, the setup program displays an error €ś[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Password validation failed. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again€? (Error Code 15119).

I even tried changing the Authentication mode from Mixed Mode to Windows Authentication (by changing the LoginMode registry key value to 1) and running the upgrade using Windows Authentication, but I receive the same error.

1) Is the password policy for SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 different from MSDE or SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Initial Version), since upgrade from MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Initial Version) worked successfully without any issues.
2) When I am using Windows Authentication for the upgrade, the installer does not prompt me for any password. What password is the installer validating against the password filter DLL? Is there a way to find it out? Also, is it possible to find out what was the reason for the password validation to fail?

I would really appreciate if I could get some answers to all the problems I am facing.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,
Sahil Girotra

MSDE Upgrade To SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2

Sep 6, 2007

I have a Windows Server 2000/Windows Server 2003 Environments with MSDE installed (default instance) and SecurityMode is SQL. I want to upgrade from MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition using a silent install since the number of servers is huge.

I downloaded the latest SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 Version 9.0.3042.0 from http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/express/bb410792.aspx

I am having the following problems:
- When I try to upgrade the default instance of MSDE (MSSQLSERVER) to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 using the above installer and selecting SQL authentication, the install fails with an error "SQL Server Setup Cannot Upgrade the specified instance by using SQL Server Credential. You must use Windows Authentication credential for the upgrade".
- When I try to upgrade the default instance of MSDE (MSSQLSERVER) to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 using the above installer and selecting Windows authentication, the install fails with an error "Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user <mydomain><AdminID>

I had earlier tested upgrading the MSDE installation to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Version 9.00.1399.6 downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=220549b5-0b07-4448-8848-dcc397514b41&displaylang=en and the upgrade worked successfully using SQL Authentication (SA User and corresponding password), but for some reason it doesn't work when I use the latest version 9.0.3042.0.

Has anyone else faced similar issues. Any tips on how I can upgrade from MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 are welcome.

Thanks in Advance.

How Upgrade MSDE Database To SQL Express 2005 On Different Server

Jun 21, 2007

I have a database on one server that is running MSDE and I would like to copy it to another server running SQL Server Express.



The process I followed was to create a backup on the first server.

Copy the backup file to the other sever

Then restore using the backed database file on the new server



Is this the right procedure? Everything I see about migrating in on the same server. I do not want to do it on the same server as we are migrating the application to the new server.
