I have a VERY Legitmate use to install sql 4 workgroups on a pc without licensing it. I am making a disk image for MANY pcs to be imaged and load licensing after the imaging is completed.
I have been able to do this with Windows XP Professional, MS Office 2003 and a couple non-Ms programs. The information for MS software even came from their KB, so I know what I am doing is legit. I just can't find any information on doing this for my sql app.
i have sungard campus management system runing on MS SQL Server 2005 trial version, i have bought a new license for MS SQL Server 2005 Enterprise. can any body help me how to put the new license please.
Simple question. I have a client that needs SQL 2005 Standard installed NOW, and cannot wait for media to arrive. I know I can download the 180 trial of SQL 2005 Enterprise, but can it be licensed as Standard when we purchase?
Is it possible to connect SSRS running on SQL Server 2005 enterprise edition (our production system) to a database running on SQL Server 2005 Developer's edition (our test system)
I need to install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition 64-bit running on Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition 64-bit. Instead of installing it on every single machine I thought of installing it on one of them, updating it with all the necessary updates, creating a ghost image of the updated system and database and copying the image on all the other machines. After doing it I however need to update both the system and SQL Server license keys. And there comes my question whether one can change the SQL Server license key after the installation??
Hi -I have istalled sql server 2005 standard edition , I want to install sql server 2005 enterprise edition on the same machine. Is it possible? I have Microsoft windows server 2003 SP2 and 1GB RAM. I want to use partition function with the enterprise edition, will the trial version of sql server work for me? -If I have already created a database and tables using the standard edition, will I be able to access and use the database using the installed trial version or will I have to start a fresh creating a new database? - Is it possible to access the same database with any of the installed versions?
BTW, I am prety new to sql server and databases , I am trying to learn by myself
Dear All,We have a database which contains many tables which have millions ofrecords. When We attach the database with MS SQL Server 2005 StandardEdition Server and run some queries (having joins, filters etc.) thenthey take very long time to execute while when We execute same querieson Enterprise Edition then they run 10 times faster than on standardedition.Our database does not use any features which are present in EnterpriseEdition and not present in Standard Edition. We want to know what arethe differences between Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition forperformance. Why should we go for Enterprise Edition when StandardEdition has all the features required.We are presently using evaluation versions of SQL Server 2005 Standardand Enterprise Editions.Thanks and regards,Nishant Sainihttp://www.simplyjava.com
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.
Hi all--I'm researching the cleanest downgrade path from a trial edition of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise to a licensed Standard Edition copy. It looks like downgrading will entail uninstalling the old version and installing the new version, but I'd like to save the original setup as much as possible. Detaching the old databases will preserve the non-system databases; what method would work best for restoring the system databases?
We have an existing installation of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition (64bit) that we are ready to go live with and would like to change the edition to Enterprise Edition (64bit). We have purchased all the appropriate licenses. We would like to avoid UN-installing the Developer Edition and RE-installing the Enterprise Edition. There must be some way to change a registry key, provide your serial number via a command line utility or re-run the setup with the license key provided and direct it to just change the edition from Developer to Enterprise and not change any of the other settings like service account, sa account, collation, etc. Any help is most appreciated.
I have a customer, Customer who has purchased SQL Server Standard Edition 2005 via Open License Agreement. The product key is not available with the media.
I checked with eOpen team and confirmed that SQL 2005 does not require product key or Volume License Key for installation.
however, according to the VKB article 331355 titled "eOpen License Web Site" under "Exceptions" it is mentioned as:
SQL Server: The product key is distributed with the media. If the customer did not get a product key with the media, refer them to their reseller. The product key is hidden between two shrink-wrapped CDs.
I've been using SQL Server 2005 Std. for my development work on a laptop w/ 2 GHz Celeron and 768 Mb RAM. Now that Express Edition has Reporting Services and Full-Text Search, would I be wise to just use it instead? I actually have both on my machine since Express Edition installed with VS 2005 Standard. Also, if I uninstall SQL Server 2005 Std. what will I lose? Thanks in advance.
Working on some performance issues at the database end, our team observed, that the query execution done by SQL Server 2005 was done by using only one processor in our application. The stored procedures are written in T-SQL and have a dedicated Database Server, running SQL Server 2005. Our tests lead to the following observations; SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition was executing stored procedures using only 1 processor, when it is a multiple processor Server. Apart from this the stored procedure execution is very linear. We would like to have your suggestions on the same. Regards, Girish
How many SQL Instances can be created in SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition?
I was told that there are 50 only. Is this true?
We are considering to use SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition on Windows Data Center 2003 which can support up to 32 CPUs. If 50 SQL instances is the limitation, why should I use Data Center for SQL 2005? That means I can only host about 50 system or less on one SQL Data Center.
I have tried to setup SQL Server 2005(Enterprise Edition) in my computer with the operation system of Windows XP(Home Edition). But I failed. It was shown that IIS is a necessary component.Why need IIS for Setuping SQL Server 2005(Enterprise Edition) ?
I installed SQL 2005 Standard edition on a failover cluster (Windows 2003). It is in production. Vendor wanted Enterprise Edition. What are my options to migrate to Enterprise? Is there an in-place way to do this, or is it a big deal?
Vendor probably doesn't need Enterprise. It's a low volume OLTP application with small databases. No fancy stuff (other than the failover clustering). Vendor simply did not test his application on Standard so he says we need Enterprise. Nevertheless, Management will probably want me to make the change.
We have a Sql 2005 server. It was setup by out network administrators who do not know much about sql server. It's running on Mixed Mode (Sql Server & Windows Authentication Mode). I have been able to connect to it use Integrated Security. However, I have not been able to connect to it using an username and a password. I have tried with sql accounts and windows accounts. Out of frustration, I used sql administrator account and windows domain administrator accounts. I also tried using the account the sql server is running on. But each and every time, I failed and received the following error message:
Login failed for user '<<User Name>>'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
I have also changed my connection string many times, but it doesn't matter. And I have been able to connect to our Sql 2000 servers successfully.
This VHD consists of 6 downloads of files. I have download it several times, but when it always has crc error when extracting part2's rar. Does anyone also encounter this problem? Is there any solution?
We currently want to move towards partitioning tables on a master server which is running SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition. However, we have transactional replication as well as log-shipping set-up against that server. The log-ship destination is also running Enterprise Edition, but the subscription server(s) are all Standard Edition only. Will there be any problems or special steps required in creating data partitions on some of these replicated tables if we don't upgrade our license?
I can't get SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition working on my notebook with Windows Vista Business Edition. I installed SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition and then i ran SP2 for SQL Server EE.
But now when i a am trying to connect to any server from SQL SERVER MANAGEMENT STUDIO i can't see any Server in Server Name list. When I click on Browse for more, I don't see any server. I am able to get Network servers.
While installing the SQL SERVER all the features were disabled as it is, then i went to advanced and selected all the options.
I have a Server on Development with SQL 2000 + Report Server 2000 and SQL 2005 Standard with Report Server 2005. All is working properly. Now, my boss realized that it is important to use SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition instead of SQL 2005 Standard Edition. This is the first time I do this and I don't know where to start or which are the items that I should consider when installing SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition. Should I uninstall SQL 2005 Standard? After installing Enterprise, Report Server will work as usual? Are there any items to have in mind?
I'm experiencing some issues with applying SP2. I'm getting a failure for the database engine (on two instances that have been installed on a server). I've noticed in the forum that a few others have had some issues in this area as well. The slightly strange thing is that if I check the version of SQL Server on each instance it is telling me that SP2 has been installed: 9.00.3042.00 SP2 Enterprise Edition (64-bit)
So, the logs tell me I have a failed upgrade, but SQL is telling me it has been upgraded. Any help would be appreciated.

I need a clean link for MSSQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition download except Microsoft site. I already downloaded from it, burned the downloaded image, but the problem is that sql.cab and some other cab files got corrupted and some components became unable to install. I tried and installed it without some components. So anybody can help me in getting a proper link.
And one more thing, i downloaded from the microsoft site itself with file size around 890MB. So give me link which works 100% or those who have tried and got 100% result.
ok, I've installed sql server, run the install samples and database, but when I go into SQL Server, the database and samples are not there. How do I connect the two?
If I run the same FOR XML query in a Development edition enviornment and a Enterprise Edition environment, the results are different. The query is exactly the same.
Here is the query:
DECLARE @MessageBody XML DECLARE @AuditTable SYSNAME DECLARE @SendTrans BIT DECLARE @SendAudit BIT DECLARE @RecordCount INT DECLARE @OperationType CHAR(1)
SET @RecordCount = @@ROWCOUNT SET @OperationType = 'U' SET @SendTrans = 1 SET @SendAudit = 1 SET @AuditTable = 'States'
SELECT @MessageBody = ( SELECT * FROM ( SELECT TOP 10 'INSERTED' AS ActionType, @SendTrans AS SendTrans, @SendAudit AS SendAudit, COLUMNS_UPDATED() AS ColumnsUpdated, GETDATE() AS AuditDate, @AuditTable AS AuditTable, 'test' AS UserName, @RecordCount AS RecordCount, * FROM l_states )AuditRecord FOR XML AUTO, ROOT('AuditTable'), BINARY BASE64)
SELECT @MessageBody
In my DEV env (Developer Edition), this result is produced: <AuditTable> <AuditRecord ActionType="INSERTED" SendTrans="1" SendAudit="1" AuditDate="2007-06-22T15:43:12.497" AuditTable="States" UserName="test" RecordCount="1" StateAbbreviation="AK" State="Alaska" /> <AuditRecord ActionType="INSERTED" SendTrans="1" SendAudit="1" AuditDate="2007-06-22T15:43:12.497" AuditTable="States" UserName="test" RecordCount="1" StateAbbreviation="AL" State="Alabama" /> </AuditTable>
In my Enterprise Edition evn, this is the result: <AuditTable> <AuditRecord ActionType="INSERTED" SendTrans="1" SendAudit="1" AuditDate="2007-06-22T15:44:48.230" AuditTable="States" UserName="test" RecordCount="1"> <l_states StateAbbreviation="AK" State="Alaska" /> <l_states StateAbbreviation="AL" State="Alabama" /> </AuditRecord> </AuditTable>
Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated. Tim
