Our security center just scanned my database server and has asked that I change the database server from the default instance name and change the default port used. When installed MS SQL Server 2000 I used the default installation settings. I have installed SP4 and this is all running on a fully patched WIN 2003 Server machine. Is this possible without un-installing and then re-installing?
Hi, can anyone help me please - I'm still struggling with my database. My set up is: Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005, SQL Express 2005, GoDaddy windows shared hosting. On my PC I have a site which uses membership and the default database which was created after first compilation. This works fine locally. However, I need to export this to the GoDaddy server. To do this I must rename the database (or recreate the project with a newly named database) and figure out how to alter any other settings. I tried running aspnet_regsql.exe command but I really didn't have any luck. I would have thought this would be a straight forward operation. Can anyone give me guidance please. Garrett
Can someone please help , we are trying to change the default language from us_english to british englsish as the date formats have to be in dd/mm/yyy for our european clients.
We tried sp_configure 'default language' 23 Reconfigure . It worked 3 months back.
We are trying this on the reverse , now and it doesnt work.
I thought I had this solved but after running aspnet_regiis again I am having the same problem.
I can't log onto my sql server because the default DB is master. The following command using sqlcmd gives me the master db:
Code:
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' GO
So, to try to fix this i ran:
Code:
EXEC sp_defaultdb 'sa', 'my_default_db' GO
and no luck. I went over to the DB server and checked the permissions under SERVER/SQLEXPRESS > SECURITY > LOGINS. All except NTAuthority and Administrators have my intended DB as the default (including ASPNET).
This is frustrating because I know I have figured it out before but I can't remember what I did. Help appreciated.
Does anybody know how I can change the default value for a column?I was trying to remove the default value in order to add the new oneafterwards. This is what I tried:alter table /table-name/ drop default for /column-name/alter table /table-name/ alter column /column-name/(/new-decl-without-default/)It did not work. I cannot find a solution in the documentation. Maybeyou can help me out?Thank you,Johan
A few weeks ago a client asked me to add a column to a table so Icreated this script:ALTER TABLE dbo.tblIndividual ADD fldRenewalStatus BIT NOT NULLCONSTRAINT fldRenewalStatus_Default DEFAULT 0Now they want to change it from a BIT to an INT, to store an enum.Fair enough. However, no matter how much I wrangle with a script, Ican't find a reliable way to alter the column. I've mixed and matchedthe following and nothing seems to work:EXEC sp_unbindefault 'tblIndividual.fldRenewalStatus'DROP DEFAULT DF_tblIndividual_fldRenewalStatusALTER TABLE tblIndividualDROP CONSTRAINT fldRenewalStatus_DefaultALTER TABLE tblIndividualDROP COLUMN fldRenewalStatusGOALTER TABLE tblIndividualADD fldRenewalStatus int NOT NULLCONSTRAINT fldRenewalStatus_Default DEFAULT 0Thoughts?ThanksEdward

I've created a new Stored Procedure template and saved it to .Microsoft SQL Server90ToolsShellTemplatesSqlStored Procedure. I can view (and use) the template via the Template Explorer, however, I want this new template to become my default template.
What do I mean by this? - I want to be able to right-click on stored procedures in my object explorer, click New Stored Procedure, and be forced to use my new template, rather than Create Procedure (New Menu).SQL.
Best practice talks about the use of name conventions in the SSIS packages.
Is there a way to rename the default names of the tasks in the DataFlow and ControlFlow once and for all, so that each time I drag a new DataFlowTask in, the default name will be DFT and so on.
Hi;I feel like an idiot to be asking this,but how do I change the default drive and folderin which new databases are created?I've been looking all over Server Mgmt Studio,and I can't find anything. I'm thinking that someonecan tell me this off the top of their heads,or slip me a link to a web page.Thanks,
Hi, I'm supporting a SQL 6.5 application through a firewall & I'm new to NT & SQLServer. What's the easiest way to find out what port SQL is listening on? It should be 1433 but the NT guys say 1433 isn't in use. What's the easiest way to change the default port? A search through Books online talks about editing registry keys & I'd prefer not to do this if this can be avoided. Any tips would be appreciated.
If you enter "Create Database test", the database files (mdf file & log file) are created, by default, in:- C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData I want to change that to:- D:Database Files I sucessfully moved the model database to this location (using the instructions in BOL) assuming that all new databases would now get created in the same location, but they don't. They still get created in: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData
So how do I change the default? (It's not satisfactory to have to move each database after it's created)
I am creating SSRS reports on top of SSAS cubes. I want the default value of parameter to change dynamically based on the current year or it should select the last of the parameter values.
I have built an application that uses SQLExpress. When I build the setup with a new setup Project I include in the prerequisites SQLExpress so that if the target PC has no SQL server installed the setup sequence will automatically install an instance.
The Serup Sequence installes SQL Server with default Instance name and settings. I need to make the setup package to install the SQL instance with a specific name and some other setting. These settings would be
I have installed my modell database onto c:mssql7data...
How do I now change the properties of this so that when someone creates a database, the path it will get created to is set to d: I thought that I could just move model, but it seems that this isn't possible.
Hello,I have SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition, and I'd like to change thedefault port to something else (we'll use 2033 for this example). I'vetried to connect from another computer on the same subnet using"ServerName:2033" as the server, but it doesn't connect. It will connect ifI change the Server to use the default port and change the server to connectto on the client to "ServerName", but either I"m not referencing the newport number properly or ????Any help you could provide would be great.Thanks In Advance!Rick
I want to change the default directory for my stored procedures. It is extremely inconvenient for me that they are placed in documents and settings... I cannot find a place in the Tools where I can change it.
I think it has been discussed previously that having default parameter values based on expressions, e.g. a default parameter value of =Split("Bug",",") in multiple parameters will cause a postbacl whenever a user selects different values from the list.
Is this by design? Its a bit of an annoying thing. The refreshpostback doesnt happen if you have basic defaults like ="All" but only when an expression of some sort is used in more than 1 parameter. Does RS think they are linked or something, why does it need to psotback efresh?
This displays the parameter bar and the view report button. When pressing the view report button, the report is automatically rendered into HTML 4.0. Is there a way to use the existing parameter bar and automatically render the report to a different extension (such as PDF) when the parameters are entered and the View Report Button is pressed.
I installed a default SQL Server 2012 instance on Windows Server 2012.I enabled the SQL Browser and changed the TCP port of the instance to 1435. I changed port 1433 to 1435 I was able to connect to the instance using SSMS on another server. Now I have to enter Servername,1435 to make a connection.Why does the SQL Browser not resolve the servername to the right IP address and port 1435? Why am I not able to make a connection when I enter the servername or <servername>MSSQLSERVER? Is a SQL Browser only resolving named instances?This works fine for a named instance. Is there something special about default instances or the SQL Browser?
I am unclear as to which Ip address to change the standard port on. When setting up a cluster you have multiple IP address's including the nic that is used for the heartbeat. I have not found any documention on how to change both nodes to listen on a port other than 1433..
In sql 2000, during the installation an option was given to allow the installer to install to a different drive or path, however in sql 2005, I do not see an option. During the installation it does give you the option of installing via the command line interface, however this would be the last option. If this is the only method of installing sql 2005 for a different data drive path, then please provide the command line to do this. I've used the command line osql/isql to restore db's in sql 2000/msde and it's a pain.
HiWhen we installed SqlServer2000 we left the default collation name(Sql_Latin1_General_CPI_CI_AS).The user defined databases we created afterwards were defined with adifferent collation name in order to be able to accept the character setwe use, Hebrew.We are looking into switching DTSs that we use to copy data from ourmain system , that uses an Ingres database, into OSQL scripts. Althoughthe DTSs successfully copy the Hebrew letters when I copy data with OSQLit comes over as jibberish.After looking into the matter I came to the conclusion that while DTSrefers to specific databases and uses the destination database'scollation name , OSQL refers to the remote server and destination serverand therefore uses the collation name of the server and not of thedatabase. In order for it to successfully copy the Hebrew I need tochange the default collation name of the installation.Is "rebuild master" the way to do such a thing ? (this is a productionserver so we are wary of doing a "rebuild master")Has anyone else run into similar problems when transfering data betweenservers using OSQL ?ThanksDavid Greenberg
I have question about install both default instance and name instance on to one server. Do I need follow a specific order such as default instance first then name instance?
If my server already has two or more name instances, can I install one more default instance?
Hi, I'm just looking into installing a second instance of SQL 2005 with SP2 on a W2K3 R2 machine that already contains a default instance, if i do so is the order of installation 1) Install named instance 2) Apply SP2 to the newly installed named instance
If i do this, will either of these require a system reboot ? The default instance should remain operational if no reboot required as the service pack is for a specific instance in this case ?
I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition in parallel with SQL Server 2000. The server is a Dell 2650 with 1 GB RAM running Windows 2000 Server.
The initial part of the setup runs the System Configuration Checker (SCC), which is generating this warning:
The server is a member of a domain, but I am logged in as the local administrator. The drive is not compressed. There are no file system problems. I am at a loss as to why this warning is occuring, and do not want to proceed until I figure this out.
(I got this warning on another server as well. That was a test server, so I proceeded. The engine seems to run ok, but SSIS will not load, says a component is missing. Not sure if the two issues are related or not).

Please help,I am trying to install MSDE 2000 so that Backup exec will run on thisserver. I have gotten so far as to find an entry in my SQLSTP.TXT filethat says that c:mssql7 was detected so the install fails.Now, to start with there is no directory called C:mssql7 on thisserver. I have gone through all MS articles on manual removal of SQLserver and instances.
