Difficulty Uninstalling SqlExpress

Apr 30, 2007

Hi,



I installed SqlExpress with Advanced services on to a server running Small Business server 2003.



I needed to uninstall SqlExp, and thought I did so through Add/Remove programs. For some reason it did not seem to uninstall. Foolishly I did not check, and then tried to install another copy in a different directory. I've then ended up with complete mess.



Tried to do another uninstall, but again, ended up with two incomplete versions of express.



Is it possible that part of my problem revolves around the fact I have a mirrored drive with Raid 1 installed.??



Whatever, I need to know how to clean up the mess and start again. Preferably without having to do a format and reinstall SBS.

Difficulty Uninstalling Native Client

Jul 1, 2007

I have been running SQL Server 2005 Express (basic) Instance MSSMLBIZ in conjunction with Microsoft Office Accounting 2007 Professional.

I want to make a "clean install" of SQL Server 2005 Express Advanced, SQL Server2005 Express Tools, in order to create additional Reports in Microsoft Office Accounting 2007 Professional.

I ran uininstall on the basic SQL Server 2005 Express, but Native Client did not uninstall; the following message was posted:

"An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Native Client cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli.msi'."

I then attempted to install SQL Server 2005 Express Advanced, but it failed to load Native Client. I then uninstalled all instances, deleted the SQL Server Express Files in Programs, and ran "CC Cleaner" to clear the Registry.

I then attempted to uninstall Native Client again, and received the following message:

"This action is only valid for products that are currently installed."

I the returned to CCCleaner Tools to attempt to delete the residuals and received the following message

"Cannot delete msi installer."

I ran "Search - *.msi" and there is no instance of sqlncli.msi visible.

I have Removed Registry Entries for SQL Express,

except HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT instances.

Should I delete these?

Have I forgotten or omitted something??

Please Help.

I can't start SQLEXPRESS.

The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".

But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.

I do have sql server 2005 developer's edition installed; is that the reason? and does that mean I cannot have both installed on the same machine?

Difficulty With A Join

Jan 24, 2008

Hi, I've got two tables. One is a table of metal types:

MetalID | MetalName
--------------------
1 | Gold
2 | Silver
3 | Platnum

The other is a linking table of an object's assigned metals:

ObjectID | MetalID (FK) | Weight
---------------------------------
1 | 1 | 2.00

I'd like to select all metal types, and the weight of any metal that has a matching record for a given object ID. So for ObjectID 1, I want a result set like this:


MetalID | MetalName | Weight
----------------------------
1 | Gold | 2.00
2 | Silver |
3 | Platnum |

I've tried a left outer join on the assigned metals table, but only got the one matching record back. Also if possible, the ideal result would also indicate if it had a match:


MetalID | MetalName | Weight | IsAssigned
-----------------------------------------
1 | Gold | 2.00 | 1
2 | Silver | | 0
3 | Platnum | | 0


Any help is appreciated!

Connecting To SQL Or MSDE Difficulty !!

Oct 28, 2005

Hey guys,     I am a newbie here, so please bear with me. I have installed SQL Server 2005 CTP on Machine A and MSDE on Machine B. Both these contain the PUBS database beside others. On Machine C, I have installed "ASP.Net Web Matrix" and I want to be able to connect to either Machine A or B to access the PUBS database. It connects to Machine B, when I put in the Servers IP address. But everytime I try to connect to Machine A, it gives me an error saying, "Unable to connect to the database. To connect to this server you must use SQL Server Management Studio or SQL Server Management objects(SMO) ".    I heard that connection strings are needed to access the SQL Server 2005 but I have no idea where to begin. Do I need to create special users to access the Server or will Windows authentication work ? Could anyone help me out in connecting to the SQL Server 2005 CTP?

Difficulty Tranferring Data Using DTS

May 25, 2006

I am trying to transfer data into SQL Server from Excel using DTS.

I get error for a particular field:

Data for Source Column 3('Col3') is too large for the specified buffer size.

I gathered from other resources, that this error is due to some record in the excel sheet for which that particular field is too big.
and it reads only the first 8 records to determine a data type.

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q281517

the fix is to chnage the registry value, as mentioned in the above link. But hat is not an option for me, as that slows down the process a lot.

Does any body else has any other suggestion for this?

I have an idea, that worked, but for that I have to manually insert a record on the top in the excel sheet, with a big size data in that field (which gives problem), and then run DTS, later delete that record.

To automate this idea, I tried to do a DTS from a dummy table (with a record with big data in it) to this excel sheet, but it puts the record at the bottom of the sheet. Is there any way to put this record on the top?

Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Nicky

Difficulty With Named Instances

Dec 11, 2007



We are using a system that has uses four instances. On each client to the server we used the ODBC settings to connect to the different instances. We have since reinstalled the server, and now we are unable to find or 'see' any of the databases, except for locally.

E.g. The first database we install is named Foo, with database Bar. It is set up on port 1433.
The second named instance is Foo2, with database Bar2. It is set up on a dynamic port.

We now try to connect to the database with ODBC. We connect to SERVERFOO, and then select the BAR db. It works fine.
We then try to connect to the database SERVERFoo2, it lets us in, and then all we can select is the BAR db. I don't know what is causing this. We never before had to edit the settings in the client config for the odbc settings (e.g. to set manually to TCP port 1433) and I have checked the sql config manager to ensure that tcpip settings are allowed and will "ListenAll".

What more do we need to do? I think the browser should be installed, but my collegue disagrees.

Any ideas as to why we can only see the database referenced to 1433 port, and why no other port works, when we never had to do that before?

Thanks a bunch in advance,

Regards
Carl

Difficulty Uploading Information To Database

Dec 1, 2005

This is probably a very simple question but i am having problems with inserting information into database
The function takes the values "FirstName" And "LastName" from  A table Called "Customer" and the value "ProductID" from a table called "Products" and inserts them into a table called " NewOrder".
Everything compiles ok but when I press the button the information is not uploaded to thedatabase. ( There is no error message)
This is the stored procedure
CREATE PROCEDURE SP_NewOrder(@CartID char (36), @CustomerID Varchar (50))AS
INSERT INTO NewOrder (FirstName, LastName, ProductID)
SELECT Customer.FirstName, Customer.LastName, Products.ProductID
From Customer,Products Join ShoppingCart ON Products.ProductID =ShoppingCart.ProductIDWHERE ShoppingCart.CartID = @CartID AND Customer.CustomerID = @CustomerIDGO
This is the Function

Difficulty Adding A Record In SSMSE

Aug 21, 2006

I'm new to SQL Server and I'm using 2005 Express with SSMSE, and having trouble adding a record to a table "manually" by typing in the data.

I find I can change most of the fields by viewing the table in SSMSE and just clicking on the field and editing it then clicking "execute SQL" but for some reason the changes don't "take" when a date field is involved.

Is there a special or proper way to enter a date that I'm not aware of? I'm not having much success figuring out this online help stuff from within SSMSE, I keep getting to help on the help system itself (oops).

TIA!

Difficulty Executing Multiple SQL Cmds

Aug 27, 2007

I am probably missing something simple here but...

I have a CLR Stored Procedure where I am attempting to execute multiple SQL commands. Here is what happens.


Case One
1. Stored Procedure is invoked.
2. Create SQL Connection.
3. Open the connection.
4. Begin Transaction.
5. Create Command from Connection.
6. Set Command objects Transaction property to transaction created above.
7. Set Command Text Property to SQL Query.
8. Execute Query via ExecuteReader and get SQLReader.
9. Read query result set.
10. Close QueryReader.
11. Set Command Text Property to another SQL Query.
12. Execute Query

This is where I get one of two exceptions.
1. An Exception stating that I cannot have parallel transactions.
or
2. An Exception that I have an open SqlReader that must be closed.


Case Two
1. Stored Procedure is invoked.
2. Create SQL Connection.
3. Open the connection.
4. Begin Transaction.
5. Create Command from Connection.
6. Set Command objects Transaction property to transaction created above.
7. Set Command Text Property to SQL INSERT command.
8. Execute Insert command.
9. Set Command Text Property to SQL Query command.
10. Execute Query Command via ExecuteReader.

At this point the stored procedure appears to hang.


Could someone please enlighten me if I have missed something obvious while reading the manual, regarding what you can and cannot do?

Thanks in advance.

Rants. Difficulty To Learn ETL Tools?

Apr 16, 2007

Dear Experts,I've worked with Oracle since 1995. I have gonevery deep into many of the Oracle features, includingsqlloader, and export/import. And I've done datamodelling even longer.At the same time, I have done ETL since 1995.Although, at the Proc, and PLSQL, sqlloader, level.Map the data. Take data from the source, do anymodifications/transformations that are required,and insert or update. Easy. The hard part isdetermining the mappings.But I have not been given the opportunity towork much with ETL tools such as:Informatica, DataStage, Ascential, Ab InitioThe little bit of experience that I do have,showed that Informatica was -incredibly- easy to use.It's a GUI. It's SUPPOSED to be simple!!!I have missed out on a number of opportunitiesbecause I didn't have a few YEARS of experiencewith ETL tools. Which seems odd, because thetool looks like it requires a max of a week to learn!Just how difficult are these ETL tools to learn?Especially if you have already been working withOracle, and doing data mappings and loads since 1995?I'm thinking that it can't be difficult at all.When you search for newsgroups, there are no newsgroupsfor these tools. Although the companies who makethem, might have their own newsgroup.There are also not many books on these tools.If you search for books on Oracle, or SQL Server,you will find a lot of very big, and detailedbooks. But there is next to nothing specificallyon the various ETL tools.Any certifications for any of these tools lookto be much simpler than Oracle's.To me, the real issue is the mappings. If youcome into a new environment, the data mappingsare completely esoteric to those systems.No amount of experience with an ETL tool, or anytool, is going to tell you what the mappings should be.Questions:- Just how difficult are these ETL tools to learnfor an experience Oracle pro like myself?- Other than a GUI, making everything simple to use,just what are the advantages of using ETL tools?- what built in functionality do ETL toolshave, that can't be done in PLSQL?Thanks a lot!

Difficulty In Writing A DateTime To A Table

Jul 7, 2006

I'm developing an application in VB 2005 Express using SQL 2005 Express. I need to put a timestamp into my table each time I create a row...

The following is a snippet...

Dim DDate As [SqlDateTime] = Now()

Dim TheQuery As String = "INSERT INTO Groups (PC_Name_Stamp, OperatorNo, Group_Type, Date_Time) VALUES ('Development', '2', 'Test',' " & DDate & " ')"

Which won't work as I am attempting to concatinate a SqlDateTime into a string.

My best guess is that I need to somehow to use a DEFAULT value in the table that persists so each time a row is created the datetime it was created is saved with the row, rather than being re-calculated each time the table is opened. There are probably several other ways of doing it and this may not be the easiest.



I'm not a programmer, just an Engineer, so I can only read Help for 5 minutes at a time.

Difficulty In Installing SQL Developer On Vista Ultimate

Oct 28, 2007

I have a real installation mess n my hands. I'm attempting to install Sql Server Developer edition on a new Thinkpad with Vista Ultimate. There are no issues with limited resources. This copy of Vista Ultimate came with a trial copy of Office 2007 and SQLExpress was intalled with it. I unistalled SQLExpress being unaware of the Vista Compatibility problems. SQL Developer did not install after I removed SQLE. After researching this on the net, I read that developer could be installed as an upgrade if SQLE is on the system. So Installed SQLE with advanced tools deliberately not installing the tools. That installation went well. So then I tried to reinstall SQL Developer and received a message about having to setup via command line because of an exisiting instance. So I installed Developer with the folowing command line from an MSDN DVD.

E:ENGLISHSQL2005DEVELOPERSQL Server x86Servers>start /wait setup.exe ADDLOC
AL=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MHASQLE UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 /qb

I chose the advanced options specifiying that the tools be installed. That installation failed to install the tools and I believe there was an error in the core data engine installation. I received an error message to check the logs but to be honest, there are meagbytes of log files and I don't really know what to check.

The core log looked like this:

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup beginning at Mon Oct 29 11:11:04 2007

"c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup Bootstrapsetup.exe" finished and returned: 1706
Aborting queue processing as nested installer has completed
Message pump returning: 1706

I believe residual office files are throwing the installation off but that could be an erroneous conclusion as the OWC portion always fails with a 1706.

What I need is basic SQL functionality and it's really important that I have the Studio Management Console.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what log to check toward getting a core data engine installed along with the olls and documentation for SQL Developer?

Having Difficulty With FormView, Stored Procedures And Insert Parameter

Feb 17, 2005

I setup the databse and Visual Web Developer to use
stored procedures when the insert command is used. The
database also uses the field UserName that I pass using a
SessionParameter within the InserParameter block from the
Membership.GetUser.Username from the aspnet_ tables.

My difficulty is when using the "Formview" as the body to
with which to insert (I wanted the design versatility of
FormView) I get an error: "system.formatExpression: Input
string was not in a correct format" when I leave the
textboxes empty and invoke the insert command. I first
assumed that the bound textboxes are not being converted
correctly when left blank, so I used the
ConvertEmptyStringToNull=True, with no success. I then
coupled that with the Type=[correct format] still with
the same error. Alas, my final attempt was to set
defaults in the "ALTER PROCEDURE" within the stored
procedure itself.

Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

Uninstalling SQLEVAL

Apr 3, 2006

I downloaded the SQLEVAL but did not install it on my computer. It is not something I am going to need to use. Can I just delete the file folders to remove it, or do I have to finish the install, then go through the uninstall process? I would rather avoid the install because it has caused problems for a co-worker and I don't want to run into similar issues.

This may be the silliest question you guys see on the boards, but I would rather look stupid then to do something I shouldn't and screw up my computer.

If you need to know I am running Windows XP with SP2 installed.

Thanks in adavance for your help!

Uninstalling Sql Express

Apr 21, 2008

I have to uninstall Sql Express because of a problem that arose after I tried to make a connection from VS2008 Server Explorer to SqlExpress ( connection strings run from C3 code worked fine). I began getting weird errors and the issue has not been resolved after a long thread I ran in this forum.

It turns out there are plenty of dire warnings on the web and MSDN not to do this or that before you tried to uninstall. To tell you the truth I have uninstalled Sql Express in the past quite a few times but every time you fight new challenges and it is difficult to learn from experiecne. I have always done it headlong without considering consequences, eventually this bulldozed approach worked every time but there is a chance that with the .NET getting more complicated this time I may get in trouble.

I am referring to this article on MSDN: before you uninstalled Sql Express:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143365.aspx

which is awfully unclear. It seems it recommends uninstalling ALL versions of .NET from 2.0 on.

These are versions on my Vista machine:


v1.0.3705, v1.1.4322, v2.0.50727, v3 .0, v3.5

Do I have to uninstall any? I don't think I've done it before.

Now, those .NET versions I listed above are just folders in my WindowsMicrosoft.NETFramework directory. When I try to open Turn Windows features On & Off I can see only .NET 3.0 Framework, nothing else. Not even .NET 3.5!

Also there is this frightening link:

Any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks.
