I have a DTS package that is importing a fixed length file.
After installing SP3a (on PERSONAL & DEVELOPER edition) it will not
allow me to assign more than 125 fixed length column positions.
After hitting the Finish & OK button it just wipes out the column
settings.
I've reinstalled both Personal & Developer edition. DTS will allow
more than 125 prior to the service pack.
Hi,
I'm trying to upgrade MSDE with SP4.
I used the following in command prompt.
setup /upgradesp sqlrun INSTANCENAME=MSDEINSTANCE SECURITYMODE=SQL UPGRADEUSER=username UPGRADEPWD=userpassword /L*v C:MSDELog.log
i got the message "Please go the control panel to install and configure system components."
What does it mean?
How to upgrade it?I have tried to edit the line with *V, and using the sa username and password, but i get the same message.

I just upgraded my desktop engine MSDE 1.0 to MSDE 2000 SP3a. Everything seemed to go well, MSSQLSERVER AND SQLSERVER Agent Services are running, problem is, I can no longer see the particular instance on the network from Enterprise Manager.
The installation instructions specified that if the Instance was to accept connections from applications on other computers not to specify the DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS parameter, so I didn't.
I'm a little green with this, can anyone suggest a place to start troubleshooting?
Hi,
Recently when i try to upgrade my current MSDE 2000 (SP3a) to SP4, the system just keep on failing me. Here is the scenario:
1. Download the MSDE2000 SP4 from microsoft
2. Extract the SP4
3. Run the following command in either the command prompt or via a batch file:
echo off
echo "Start to Upgrade MSDE SP4 ... "
setup.exe /UPGRADESP SQLRUN INSTANCENAME=JSNG SECURITYMODE=SQL UPGRADEUSER=sa UPGRADEPWD=Th3B3st /L*v c:MSDE_Log.log
echo "SP4 Upgrade Process completed!"
4. Once the above batch file was runned, the standard SQL configuration screen (gathering information) will be triggered.
5. However after a while the installation will just stopped.
6. When i checked on the log, i have found out that the failure of installation is due to the system has failed to configure the server. PFB for the last few rows of the verbose log:
=== Logging stopped: 8/22/2006 17:36:49 ===
MSI (c) (90:88) [17:36:49:865]: Note: 1: 1729

MSI (c) (90:88) [17:36:49:865]: MainEngineThread is returning 1603
=== Verbose logging stopped: 8/22/2006 17:36:49 ===
7. When i check the MSI Installer Event ID at Microsoft site, it just said that this is the server configuration problem and i cant find any solution.
Any forumers here experience the above before? Mind to share some thoughts?
FYI, my current MSDE configuration is as follow:
- MSDE 2000 Release A (SP3a - 8.00.760)
- Installed Instance = JSNG
Thanks.

I had a number of jobs which were backing up system and user databases under SQL 7 using SQL ServerAgent. Over the weekend I upgraded SQL 7 to SQL 2K.
All backups work except for one, which gets the following error message: Executed as user: SANDIEGOSvcSQLServer. sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed.
As best as I know SQLSTATE 42000 is an ODBC message indicating a syntax violation or an access violation. I have recreated the maintenance plan in an attempt to rule out a syntax violation. During the upgrade process I did not change the account under which SQL Server Agent runs, so it seems like it should not be an access violation.
Any ideas would be appreciated!!!
Thanks Gary Andrews Andrews_gary_w@solarturbines.com
I recently moved a database from a SQL server 2005 box to new server running SQL server 2012. The update/insert triggers that were working on the tables to handle referential integrity checking are no longer working. Running the same database on SQL Server 2008 and everything works.
Here is one of the trigger that throws the error 44446
USE
[M2Data]
GO
/****** Object:Â
Trigger [dbo].[tblContacts_UTrig]Â Â Â Script Date: 3/11/2014 9:07:13 AM ******/
SET
ANSI_NULLS ON
[code]....
I have verified that there is a matching key in tblCompanys. Also, when I run a query to update tblContacts the error message appears but the update does take. If I try and edit the row directly by selecting edit top 200 rows - the error message appears and the update does NOT take.
These triggers were probably added to the database during an upsize from MS Access to SQL Server 7 way back. What am I missing - is it something in the syntax?
Prior to our move to 2005...permissions were granted to developers by adding them to the following fixed database roles...db_ddladmin, db_datareader, db_datawriter, and db_securityadmin. They created their objects using 'dbo' as the owner.
After upgrading to 2005, suddently they are having difficulty accessing their objects with this same security. Do they need permissions on the dbo schema?

This morning I attempted to connect to my local copy of SQL Server (2012) (Win 7) using Windows Authentication. I was unable to do so and per the error log it was due to error 18456 (invalid credentials).
Yesterday I changed my windows password. Is it possible for this to be the cause?
FYI, following is from the error logs:

The logs showed the error occurred yesterday (4/28) which is about when I changed my password. The 17:09 log (last one) is when I shut down my computer. Note that I was logged into SQL Server when I changed my Windows password and worked with it several times through out the day.
Also, per the configuration manager SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) (and all other services) is stopped and I was unable to start it ("The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion).
I upgraded to Sql Server Express 2005 w/Advanced Services, chose to install full-text indexing, rebooted, but appear to be unable to set up full-text indexing for a column. After attaching the old mdf file and opening any table in either Management Studio Express or Visual C# Express, I don't get anything but a disabled (Is Full-text Indexed) property for the fields I want to set up. I have verified that FullText Search service is running, and have tried restarting the service. I have also checked that full-text indexing is enabled on the database.
I just feel like I am missing some simple step. Any info would be welcome.

Hi SQL Proz,
I am trying to important some data in the an existing table with trigger. Unfortunately, the data were successfully inserted into the said table but the trigger did not work out. Why? How to do the tricks?
Many Thanks!
I have a need to do a quick and dirty import of a flat file into a 2005 database. When I try to run the Import Export wizard from my machine, I get an error when it tries to connect to the database server. It's the lovely generic error that says my server doesn't allow remote connections. Well it does allow remote connections. I can RDP to the server and run the same import and it works. So why doesn't it work when I try to run it from my machine? Am I missing a setting somewhere?
I am using SQL Native client trying to connect to a named instance of sql (2005, sp2) as my destination.
TIA

I'm trying to upgrade my MSDE to sp3a, I'm following the instructions.
c:sql2ksp3MSDE
setup /upgradesp sqlrun DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=1
But receive the following message:
Invalid product code was found. Check if product is installed.
Then
Could not find package to install on the installation media.
Any help?
Thank you.
Select @@version does not know the difference between SP3 and SP3A.
Does anyone know of a SQL statement that will let me know if I have SP3A??
Thanks.
We have the rtm version of SQL 2000 and have spent the last 2.5 hours trying to apply SP3a. Nothing on the microsoft support site has pointed us to the solution.
Basically, we start the install after shutting down the services, answer all the questions and then when it starts to copy files it fails with an error
'microsoft data access component failed (-1).
Looking in c:winntdatestup.log, the error is unknown. The c:winntsqlsrp.log file is not touched.
We tried renaming the odbcconf.dll file per a microsoft article and no joy.
We also restored mdac_type.exe file per microsoft article and no joy.
Trying to install SP1 and SP2 - same results.
Anyone got any ideas besides it's time to call Microsoft?
:confused:
I am trying to install sql server sp3a. I checked the version before and after the sp is applied, and it shows:
8.00.194
Now, according to the sp3a readme:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=/support/servicepacks/SQL/2000/SP3ReadMe.asp
the following versions should show:
SQL Server 2000 Original Release 8.00.194 RTM
Database Components SP1 or Desktop Engine SP1 8.00.384 SP1
Database Components SP2 or Desktop Engine SP2 8.00.534 SP2
Database Components SP3 or SP3a, or Desktop Engine SP3 or SP3a 8.00.760 SP3
This would imply that after installing sp3a and restarting, the version reported should now be 8.00.760. However, it still shows 8.00.194. So it appears to have not really installed, althought the sp3a installation ran without incident. So, how can I get the sp3a to not just act like it installed, but actually get it to install? Also, I have shut down all mssql services and rebooted, applied patch, and rebooted again. Doesn't help.
Also, if it is really installing, is there another way to tell?
Anyway, I really need to be able to install sp3a to see if it fixes another problem I'm having. Unfortunetly, since I can't even tell if the sp3a is installing, I can't tell if it really doesn't help or not. Thanks.
Tony F
I really don't understand this, in an attempt to upgrade/install SP3a, I download the file sql2kdesksp3.exe, which from the documentation, you can either use for upgrading or new installs. I run a new install; in the new instance, I execute "select @@version" and get "Service Pack 1"??

Our environment is currently running on SQL 2000 sp3a (win2003) and I'm having an issue with 'max worker threads', so I opened a ticket with Microsoft.
They tell me that SP3a is no longer support and I have to upgrade all our servers to SP4.
We had an issue in my previous company and I was told by a consultant that I shouldn't install SP4 because it caused a lot of issues. I'm aware of the 'AWE enabled' issue, are there any others I should watch out for?
Thanks
Hi, I've downloaded the SP3a for sql server from the microsoft website. I unpackaged the files into a folder and ran the file setup.bat. I recieved an error that setupsql.exe file was not found. I think theres a folder missing called Setup under the X86 folder. Is there a way I can fix this????????

Now that support for SQL SP3a has been removed, how does this affect MSDE installations? We've got lots of products installed that have come with MSDE backends, all on SP3a. Is it up to the individual vendors as to whether they continue to support on this version? Backup Exec and Insight Manager are 2 that spring to mind.
thanks
I just downloaded and installed MSDE2000 sp3a for winform and asp.net
quickstart tutorial. But I found it has no sample database such as pubs
and northwind. It used to have these databases. At least in last September
when .Net web Matrix came out.
If this is the case, can someone tell me where to get the sql scripts
to create Northwind database in MSDE?
Becasue the winform tutorial uses this database.
Thanks in advance!

I urgently need tom use SP3a upgrade the instance of SQLServer200MSDE runing on my local machine but I am having problems in doing so.My first problem is that when I start the set up procedure I get themessage"A strong SA password is required for security reasons. Please useSAPWD switch to supply the same"Currently the sa password isAbc/def/ghk1Which I think is a 'strong password' according to the microsoft rulesathttp://www.microsoft.com/resources/...sword_tips.mspxI would be grateful if someone could confirm that Abc/def/ghk1 is astrong password.If anyone could point me to some published informal help on installingSP3a then that would also be very helpful (I do of course have the MSread me file). If anyone has a sample command line entry for theupdating then I would find that extremely useful. There is oneinstance of MSDE on my machine, named NetSDK.Best wishes, John Morgan

Among other things, when I now start EnterpriseManager, I get a message saying "rebbrui.rll" is missing and the snap-infails to initiate. But then the Manager starts anyway.But the SQL application does not work. I searched around the net, and Ifound that it looks as if SQL Slammer has been on the server. I can tell bythe similar symptoms other users have had, allthough I am not sure. Anyway,when I run some online virusscans and the Symantec SQLexp-tool to removeSlammer, I am told that the system is virusfree. Is that because SP3a toSQL2000 automatically got rid of the virus (if any)?But how do I get the SQL to run without any errors again?The server also runs in Terminal Application Mode.Regards, Lars.

Server : w2k server sp4
Tablet : w2k sp4
Sql Server 2000
A few days ago we upgraded our servers and tablet pc's with sql server sp3a. At the same time we also changed the publisher and it now uses a static filter to reduce the number of records in the tablet database. Since we have done this we have been getting an error message when we try to synchronize via the windows synchronization manager on our tablet pc's. The error message is "mobsync.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will need to restart the program. I looked up the error message and it is a stack overflow. This does not happen every time but about 50% of the time. We can always sync from within enterprise manager and everything works fine every time.
If any one has any ideas I would greatly appreciate it and thank you in advance.
