Change Management Tools
Nov 1, 2007
Hi
I'm looking into various technologies that can make our lives easier. I have a number of processes to define, including:
Auto rollback scripting
Deployment to different environments (dev, test, production)Generation of deployment scripts from source control
Tracking deployments (generation of reports detailing exactly what occurred in a deployment)
Rather than try to custom the processes, I've decided to use a technology that already does the above and more.
Can anyone recommend any tools?
I've looked briefly at SQL Farm Combine which looks good. Anyone using this?

I have recently installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express but I do not find Management Tools in order to create scheduled backups and shrinking of the databases. I was under the impression that this should be included in the Management Studio. I use the SQL 2005 Express for smaller customers who run the SQL on a desktop unit. I need a way to backup the data to a server machine for backup purposes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail.

Hi everyone.
I manage 100+ databases spread across the country. When it comes to perform an update or offsite backup, it is a nightmare. I have to repeat the same code and the same process for 100+ times.
Is there any tools other than MS Enterprise manager we can use to perform this type of maintenance works in a batch manner? For example, we place a update sql file within the program, and the program does the rest (of course, we predefine the login credential for each databases)
Cheers~

Hi, I installed sql 2005 dev for testing sharepoint, and the management studio was not installed. Now, i am afraid to try to install it because i am thinking it may uninstall or re-install all sql components (and probably erase existing instances and sharepoint data may be lost. I have installed on an other pc the client tools, but i cannot connect to that instance, and i cannot attach the user databases (i get the 5123 error)
Can anyone help me how i can install management services without messing up the sharepoint instance?

Hi Team,
Is there any management tools in SQL SERVER 2005? I just installed my standard edition and also developer version in different computer, but seems that both versions doesn't support management tools such as query analyzer.
Can anyone explain to me...
Thanks.

>> I was able to solve this. Read the bottom of the post.
I just installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and none of the management tools seem to be there. At least they do not show up in Start>>All Programs>>Microsoft SQL Server 2005. All that shows up is the Configuration Tools menu item.
I have been searching through the forum and I have found dozens of other threads about this, but none that seem to actually answer the question or give a solution. Some say to delete everything and start over, others say to review Visual Studio 2005 (which takes something like 4 hours to install, and then you still have to install all of the 3rd party tools, so I don't want to do that unless I just have to), and a few others say to uninstall SQL Server Express and then reinstall SQL Server. However, I believe that I selected to install them both at the same time.
Anyway, I just looking for some ideas here to get all of this installed. There seems to be some problem here that a lot of people are having to deal with.
Are the Managment Tools disabled by default? It seems that in 2005 a lot of the services are turned off by default so I'm wondering if I have to do something to turn on the Management Tools.
Best regards,
Greg Rothlander
I just uninstalled and reinstalled per some threads on the forum and it all showed up. Apperently if anyone runs into this, just uninstall everything that has to do with Microsoft SQL Server and reinstall.

I have been trying for 2 days now to get the SQL Server management tools installed on client machines. I'm starting to think it is not possible to do that the way we used to be able to with previous versions of SQL Server. I have installed 3rd party open source software on my own machine so that I can query the database without logging onto the server directly and would like for my co-workers to be able to do the same. As I mentioned we tried the SQL Server Management studio and all we get is a message saying to uninstall all the beta and Visual Studio *** on our machines. We stripped one machine all the way down to the OS and still kept getting that message so I'm guessing it is some new Windows Vista issue that makes SQL Server 2005 client tools completely incompatible with XP. However, we are not going to bow to Microsoft's evil ways and upgrade to their new OS just to use the SQL Server Studio. If need be I will write my own software to workaround this problem. In the meantime, can anyone recommend some good 3rd party tools that will allow us to query the SQL Server 2005 database on a server and preferably one that does not require all other software be removed first?

I've got the following installed on my local machine (XP Pro, sp 4, SQL 2000 tools)
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 9.00.1399.00
Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 2005.090.1399.00
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.085.1117.00 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.42
Operating System 5.1.2600
It keeps bomging and giving errors.
I can't find a specific service pack for the tools...maybe there isn't one? Do I need to install the regular sp2 server service pack?
I'm confused.

I have VS2008 installed. Now, I need to install the SQL server Management Tools, because of tasks I have on SQL server instances which are installed on other servers. I guess a lot of developers are in such a situation. You develop on your own machine, but deploy the final database on a production machine.And you happen to be the manager of those databases too (well, I am)
Now, it seems impossible to install the neccesary tools as I get messages;
The following components that you chose to install are already installed on the machine. To view a report of available options and alternatives click on details (Workstation components, Books Online and development tools 9.2.3042.00)
Then on the Details, it says the following,
Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools Express Edition
Reason: Your upgrade is blocked. For more information about upgrade support, see the "Version and Edition Upgrades" and "Hardware and Software Requirements" topics in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online.
Build version check:
Your upgrade is blocked because the existing component is a later version than the version you are trying to upgrade to. To modify an existing SQL Server component, go to Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel, select the component you would like to modify, and then click Change/Remove.
Now, I have no clue of what can be safely removed to allow the installation of the Management Tools. I am afraid that I will end up with a non-working SQL server Express installation which is required for VS2008
What should I do to get these Managment Tools installed on my develop machine?

I've accidentally done something to my install of Management Studio that is making query editing very difficult. I must have used a weird key combination to enable some feature that is now opening an Intellisense like window with suggested keywords or column names. I've tried every option I can find to disable this and even tried all the <ctrl> key combinations from A-Z to try to turn this off. How to have the editor revert to the "default" behavior as installed?
I've received several replies about disabling Intellisense or changing the Intellisense options and I've already done this to no effect. I've also not installed any 3rd party tools. I was editing queries when the problem began and I think I had hit a <ctrl> or <alt> key combination key that started this problem.

Can the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio interact with local SQL 2005 Express databases. So can we use one management tool for both our server (non-local) SQL 2005 Databases and our local SQL 2005 Express databases (That the developers have free reign over).
Any tips and tricks for this kind of setup?

After opening Management Studio and doing some editing it is possible to copy/paste things in the query editor. After a while (working in another app) I come back to Management Studio and I can't copy/paste anything anymore. If I try to copy from the results window I get an error message that the clipboard operation did not succeed. If I try to copy from the query editor window it just doesn't copy. I can copy/paste in other apps without a problem.
Â
It is not the clipboard getting full but I can't rule out much else.

I can't change the database owner..I noticed this when I went to create a database diagram and the error said the database does not have a valid owner.
So for that database I went to Properties > Files and sure enough, the owner is wrong. Why? I had changed the name of the PC recently, actually a couple of times. When I finally got the name right, I ran the following commands in the query window:
   SELECT @@SERVERNAME to get the current server name
   and then Â
sp_dropserver <old name>
[code]....
to change the server name.The owner in the Properties > Files is for a pc name that doesn't exist. But when I click on the '...' button to the right to select a new Database Owner I can't select the primary account on the PC.If I create a new database, it puts that old name in as the database owner.
I went down to <server>SecurityLogins and the old <pcname><username> is still listed, and I can't add the <newpcname><username> because it says that principle already exists . I'm afraid to make any other change without knowing for certain what to do.how to get a new database owner name on all the databases on this server.Do I delete that old Login and then try to add in the new name?

I'm having many many issues installing sql server management tools. i had visual studio 2005 installed first, but uninstalled and sql related things before trying to install sql server management tools again - i also deleted the program files/microsoft sql server/ folder so there are no references.
Firstly the system configuration check gives me a warning that the system doesn't meet the recommended hardware requirements - this is wrong... i've got 2.33Ghz dual core + 1gb of ram...
I select just management tools + client connectivity to install and click next -> the setup support files/native client/owc11 etc all install fine but workstation components etc fail and the setup log appears to either be empty and not available
and MSXML6 fails... after clicking finish the installer appears to crash - : "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"... I have tried all sorts of variations on this install and have had no problems in the past - please help!

I am backing up a database as follows:
backup database PPLicense to disk = 'D:License.bak'
I have run this 5 times. If I know run this command:
restore headeronly from disk = 'D:License.bak'
I can see 5 entries returned this all looks good. In SQL Management studio I try and restore this database by selecting the file. The Restore Database dialog only shows the last backup set position i.e. position 5 and now the 4 before it. Why is this not showing the 4 previous backups?
I am using SQL Server 2012 SP 2 (Version 11.0.3460).

I downloaded and performed a full install of SQL Server Express 2008 Nov CTP. It was installed on a fresh installation of Windows Vista Enterprise x64.
During setup, I checked the 'Client Tools' box which has the description:
"Includes management and development tools: SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and Database Engine Tuning Advisor"
The installation ran fine with no errors. After install I looked for the Management Studio but couldnt find it anywhere. No SQL Server Profiler or Database Tuning Advisor either. The only tool that appears to have installed is the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
If I check my Start Menu, the only 2008 items that exist are

I've successfully installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on an Enterprise edition of Windows Server 2003 x64. I'm now (and also tried & failed during the install of the database engine) attempting to install the "Management Tools" component on the same server. However, in all my attempts to do so, I receive the following error:
---
The feature(s) specified are not valid for this edition of SQL Server
---
The message box does not list the features that are not valid but since the only item I've selected to install is the "Management Tools" option under "Client Components" it obviously points to something with that.
Am I missing something or are the Management Tools not supported in my config - most notably SQL Server 2005 Standard edition running on Windows Server 2003 x64?
Thanks.
