Is SQL Server 7.0 compatible with the Windows 200 operating system? Are
there certain patches or service packs that need to be applied to SQL to
make this compatibility work? Thanks.
We are going to upgrade to windows 2000 in the near future. We currently use sql server 6.5. Can anyone tell me if SQL 6.5 will run on windows 2000? Also will SQL server v7 run on windows 2000 or do I need to upgrade to SQL 2000?
I want to choose between Windows Vista editions. Please help me I should go for Windows Vista Business or Windows Vista Home Premium as I intend to install SQL Server 2005.
I am trying to install SQL server 2000 on my laptop which has vista as OS. I am not able to install it , somehow it fails. Can anyone please suggest me how can i accomplish this.
Are there any known issues with using RDO with SQL Server 2005?
My company is in the process of updating our SQL Server 7 database to SQL Server 2005. Most of our applications are several years old and written using RDO to access the database. I have since started the daunting task of updating all the applications to ADO, but it's only about a quarter of the way done. We need to update the database ASAP, but we cannot wait until all the applications have been updated to ADO.
While testing the applications (written in VB6) against the new SQL Server 2005 database, I have come across a problem with the RDO queries not returning the correct data. The query returns 4 records. In the SQL7, it properly shows 4 for RowCount and 4 records are present in the recordset (as seen by looping through the recordset using rs.MoveNext). In SQL2005, it properly shows 4 for RowCount, but looping through the recordset shows that the recordset only contains 1 record. The problem seems to be linked to a Left Join in the Query. (see below) Table1 has a column that has a RecID for Table2. In the case where the Table2RecID column in Table1 is 0, the row is just not added to the recordset even though it increments the RowCount.
Code:
SELECT * FROM Table1 As T1 LEFT JOIN Table2 As T2 On T1.Table2RecID = T2.RecID
I converted the query to ADO and it ran fine with no problems. The issue has something to do with SQL Server 2005 and RDO.
I just upgraded from Windows XP Pro to Windows Vista Bussiness and tried to reinstall SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition. After the installation i downloaded (using microsoft windows update) and installed all the service packs for sql and vista available.
My problem is when i open sql server management studio and try to connect to my default instance using windows authentication and database engine, an 18456 error occurs.
I enabled all the protocols and all the ports I disabled windows firewall and antivirus (eset nod32) I installed all service packs available I have also installed Visual Studio 2005 without installing sqlexpress
But nothing happens!
Please i am very desperate, any information will be gratefully accepted.
This is my installation Information

I am a beginner with SQL Server and SharePoint. I am trying to migratethe database to other servers that may be running differentplatforms. I know that the other servers have SharePoint so they arerunning SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2003, and Access. Is there a way Icould get data from my system (with SQL Server 2005) to another system(that may be running 2005, 2003, or Access) without affecting my dataor SharePoint workflow? I want the people running the other servers tobe able to access the same data and see the same workflow I do. Thanksin advance!
A client just purchased a new notebook, pre-installed with Vista. He says he is having trouble installing SQL Server 2000 (database and client tools). I am not certain (yet) if this is the standard edition or the desktop version.
What, if any, are known compatibility issues between SQL 2000 and Vista?
I have an SQL database that I need to detach from an SQL2005 server and reattach to an SQL 2000 database. I tried to set the Compatibility level from SQL Server 2005 (90) to SQL Server 2000 (80). This did not work
Hi, don't know if anyone can help me but I desperately need to roll a report out which relies on an SQL 7.0 datasource.
Current situation - Reporting Services 2000 up and running on an SQL 2000 box - no problems getting reports to run from the native machine but I cannot get the thing to make a hop to our SQL 7.0 box.
I've created three data sources - OLEDB, Native and ODBC. For the OLEDB and Native I am getting a DATABASEPROPERTYEX error - I assume here that reporting services is polling the SQL 7.0 box with an unsupported method.
For ODBC I CANNOT get the parameters to work - I've read all sorts of stuff about using unnamed parameters, so I've put a ? in the query and I'm getting Invalid parameter number and invalid parameter number errors (I suspect it is getting a bit confused, but then so am I).
So I thought I'd try a linked server, sure enough with a fixed parameter I can get through the linked server no problem, but again I can't work out the syntax/series of events needed to use a parameter with this, I'm starting to suspect it can't be done with an Exec statement.
So - first question - is there any way around the DBPROPERTY EX problem so I can use OLEDB/SQL Client connectivity and secondly please can someone explain what exactly has to go in the parameters box when I press ... on the data source box, 'cos it's doing my head in.
Hi. I am using visual studio 2005 with Sql Server Express Edition. I haven't install sql server 2005 Professional edition on my machine. It works fine. The connection string is:
You can see I haven't hardcoded machine name and there is no absolute path. I have open the website on another machine and it works fine. Now , i have open this project on third machine but it doesn't work and gives the following error:
"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 think there is some problem with sql server configuration . Please help me in this regards. I will be very thankful to you.
We have the following trace flags present in startup in SQL server 2000:
809 1204 3605 3913
Need to understand if these should be required in SQL Server 2005 + SP2 version. I have run the upgrade advisor tool which indcates that the behaviour of some flags has changed and some other TFs are no longer applicable. Hence, I want to know about the above mentioned TFs.
Hi, When using an Access Project 2002 connected with SQL Server Express in OLE DB it's impossible to work in creation mode. A message explains that this Access version is not compatible with this SQL version. Is there a service pack ?
Hello All, I am in the process of upgrading my current database in SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. I have finished my analysis using the upgrade advisor and have found a lot of SPs having upgrade related issues. From what I estimate I think it will take around 3-4 weeks to resolve all of those issues. I wanted a quicker way to upgrade my database since we have very little time for the final release. The main reason for upgrade to 2005 was use of new features like Database Mirroring and/or peer to peer replication alongwith the Partitioning features and the new T-SQL enhancements.
The question I wanted to ask was does the compatibility level 80 of SQL Server 2005 supports these new features. From what I have read on the KB article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822400 is that mirroring is supported in any compatibility level, but there is no specific mention on the peer to peer thing. Also when I personally tried using the New Partitioning Features of 2005 on the database having compatibility 80, it worked fine. Also other features like SQLCLR and TRY...CATCH works fine. One thing I observed was that new T-SQL statements like PIVOT/UNPIVOT is not supported
It will be nice if someone can give out the entire list of features that will be supported in the compatibility Level 80 and also the list of the ones that are not supported.

I have just upgraded a test server from sql server 2008 sp3 to sql server 2014 inplace upgrade. The compatability level of master database has not upgraded. It was showing 90 and the rest of system databases got updated to 120. Is it fine to update the compatibility level of master database ? Any precautions need to taken??
I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. When i create a new database (using the "New Database" dialog) i cannot set the new database's compatibility level to "SQL Server 2005(90)" because this option is not in the "dropdown list". the only items shown are: "SQL Server 7.0(70)" and "SQL Server 2000(80)". I set the owner to "sa". How do i get "SQL Server 2005(90)" in my "compatibility level" drop down list? Is this an installation option that i missed? Thanks in advance for any assistance!
Not sure if this gets fixed on a restart, but the Backward Compatibility upgrade/piece failed on service pack 1 install for SQL Server 2005. Here is the log output. Anyone experience this?

We have recently migrated quite a databases around 20 from SQL 2000 and 2005 to SQL server 2008R2.
I am using Ola's script for index maintenance for those with compatibility level above 80 as i heard it supports that way.
Hence separated in 2 way job where for those with compatibility level 80, we are running job with below query on each database with 80 as compared
USE ABC GO EXEC sp_MSforeachtable @command1="print '?' DBCC DBREINDEX ('?', ' ', 80)" GO EXEC sp_updatestats GO
I am not sure if this is the only way in for those databases, because we are seeing the database getting because of that somewhere using above query.( seems log file filling very rapidly).
But above is not the case with those databases , with compatibility 90 and above.
Ok guys, I am trying to install Sql server 2005 on Vista but I am still stuck with this warning message in the System Configuration Check during Sql server 2K5 installation :
SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility (Warning) Messages * SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility
* Some components of this edition of SQL Server are not supported on this operating system. For details, see 'Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2005' in Microsoft SQL Server Books Online.
Now, I know I need to install SP2 but how the hell I am going to install SP2 if Sql server 2005 doesn't install any of the components including Sql server Database services, Analysus services, Reporting integration services( only the workstation component is available for installation)?
Any work around for this issue?
P.S.: I didn't install VS.NET 2005 yet, can this solve the problem?
Hi All, The IP company that host my site is installing SQL 2005 soon and I my building a web application with SQL 2005 Express. So the question is has anyone heard of any problems with uploading an 2005 express onto a sql 2005 server? I would like to find out now before I finish all of the work. Don't want to find out later that you can't run a sql 2005 express database on a sql 2005 server. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
I am attempting to write a Windows service that watches a database for uploaded files to import. When a new file is found, the corresponding SSIS package is run from the file system with variables passed through. I started development as a Windows app and copied the functionality to a service.
The app runs fine. The service does not. I get a "Failure" each time a package is executed. Everything is identical behind the scenes with the obvious exceptions that OnStart and OnStop handlers are buttons in the app. I added a script task at the beginning of one of the SSIS packages to notify me that it is even running at all. It doesn't even hit that initial task.
Again, the app will run all packages just fine. The data is imported and the results return as "Success."
The following is the code executing the package. Any help is appreciated. I've been banging my head on this one for a few days now. (Is there a tag to format a code sample?)
Dim pkgLocation As String Dim pkg As New Package Dim app As New Application Dim pkgResults As DTSExecResult
Have two C# applications - one WinForms desktop app, the other a WinForms smart device app. Both use SQL Server Compact CE 3.5 to store data locally. Both work just fine.
Now the desktop app needs to open and update the .SDF file that is stored on the Windows Mobile device. (Device will be docked via USB.)
What format would the path to the .SDF look like that the WinForms application would need to specify in order to open it?
My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?
Is it possible to backup databases from a 7.0 box and restore them to as MSSQL 2k box? My question really is this: Does it matter what type of MSSQL server your database resides on or can a dump be created of a database, restored to a different version MSSQL server, and used interchangeably?
Hi, I am having a problem connecting my .net applications from the application server to the database server. When I run the application from my windows xp (sp2) box it works fine. When I try to connect via SQL Management Studio to the database server from the application server I get the same error. Here is the error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 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) Here is the Environment: App Server: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Inside Company's Firewall/ Network Database Server: Windows Server 2000 Advanced Edition SQL Server 2000 SP4 Remote Connections to the Server is checked Enable Protocols: Named Pipes & TCP/IP TCP/IP Port: 1402 (I don't know why it isn't the default of 1433) The db server is sitting out side the Company's firewall (don't ask me why). I can access it fine from inside the firewall on my XP box but not from windows server 2003. There is a web server outside the our network that also connects to the db server with no problem and that is running Windows Server 2003 Web Edition. I can ping the db server from the app server using the IP address. I tried using the IP address and the port 1402 in my connection string but that didn't work from any machine (XP and Server). I imagine the issue is somehow related to the company's firewall but why would it only block Windows Server 2003 and not XP? What do I tell the network admin to change? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Oran
