My shop is thinking of migrating from NT4 to Win2K. Is anyone running SQL7 on Windows 2000 (which edition?)? How's you're experience been? Anyone hear any anecdotes of particular things that don't work (well)?
Starting with Win2k you are not suppossed to have to install MDAC, as it comes with the OS. What about when I install SQL7 and it automatically installs MDAC. Do I have to reinstall MDAC in this case?
I have been asked to install Sql 7 on a Win2K server. I am looking for White papers, articles, postings etc which identify potential issues or known issues. I have looked through MSDN, Win2K, Microsoft Sql7 and TechNet for specifics. Any suggestions?
I set up the transationsal replication on SQL7.0. It did not work. Here are the messages
1 on Snapshot Agent: The process could not create file Server_namec$MSSQL7REPLdATAFTPServer_namefile_nam e. Error: Access is denied 2. On Log Reader Agent: bi replication transaction are available 3. Disribution Agent: The initial snapshot for publication "DB_Name" is not yet available.
Does anyone know the 'trick' in getting sqlmail (sqlserver 7.0) to work with Outlook 2000 on a windows 2000 server machine. I've setup a mail profile on Outlook, but it is not listed in the dropdown menu in the sqlmail properties. Outlook communicates with my smtp/pop3 mail server - no problem. I can't get sqlmail to interface with outlook. Basically it is telling me that it cannot find ANY profiles on the server.
I am new to MSDE and want to deploy it in my company (because it is free).However, when I install it in a W2K professional machine, there is a messagebox saying that a "strong SA password is required". How can I solve theproblem?Arthur Cheung(The MSDE engine was downloaded from the microsoft sql server web page)
Hi,I am new to Win2k and SQL server and need to back up everything each night.I used the supplied NT backup utility to schedule a backup but this missedsome files that were open or in use.I am more used to Unix/Informix where I could backup everything whether itwas in use or not.How or what would you recommend I use to do my backups?Thanks.
Hiya! I'm having a problem installing SQL Server 7 Enterprise Edition (no service pack)on a Windows 2000 Server SP 2 machine (256 MB RAM,40 GB drive) off an original MSDN CD.

There are have 2 nodes.Both on cluster and on a test_domain.Test domain is a active directory domain.
Node_A & node_B has C and D drives.D drive will have programs.
There is one common drive E - where data will go.
Now,I have to install SQL2000 on it.Can anyone tell me in layman's way how to install it.Do I have to have D drive in shared mode?When I give remote connection what should I give here?
Win 2000 clustered was installed by a NT expert and is working fine.
I am assuming drive_D will hold the SQl programs.
I tried one article posted here from Sqlserver preformance side but nothing worked.
Does it matter as both the nodes are on a Active Directory?
Ok I'm am going through a rather painful experience of installing Reporting Services on:
Windows 2000 SP4
MDAC 2.8
.Net Framework 2.0
IIS 5.0
SQL Server 2005 Developer
I have installed RS 2005 on Windows 2003, and seen it installed on XP no problems. However this is a nightmare.
RS goes ahead and installs - note that there is no Network/Local service option on the service accounts just Local system or the domain account option. I have tried using the Local system and tried using the NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM.
After the installation I go to the Reporting Services Configuration Tool, where I have crosses on:
- Server Status
- Report Server Virtual Directory
- Report Manager Virtual Directory
- Web Service Identity
- Database Setup
I- nitialization
So I go to report server/manager and click on "New.." on each to create the virtual directories and check "apply default settings" and click "Apply", all goes well
I recently migrated our database from Access to SQL Server 2005. All the WinXP users can connect to the new SQL2005 database. But all the Win2K machines fail to log on. To diagnose the problem, I tried to connect from a Wind2K machine using an .udl file. The connection failed because "a provider failed to initialize".
The SQL2005 server is residing on a WinXP machine. Users log on via SQL Server authentication layer using a dedicated login that only has read/write privileges to one specific database.

How can I copy a SQL 7 database from one server to another? Please tell me all the ways because I've tried the obvious and it doesn't work. (backup and restore - won't go from one server to another, DTS transfer object Wizard - does a whole pile of errors and doesn't do stored proceedures and trigures). Thanks for help in advance. Also, what is the email address to post to the listserv and where is the FAQ for SQL7? Most of my listserv's tell you where to post right at the bottom of the digest I get - any chance you guys would do that with this list? Thanks again.
I've got SQL 2000 set up on a cluster running Windows 2000 Advanced Server (w/SP1). Setup for Failover Clustering appeared to succeed normally on both nodes.
The SQL 2000 server logs show:
2001-01-11 10:02:57.82 server SuperSocket Info: Bind failed on TCP port 1433. 2001-01-11 10:02:57.85 server SQL server listening on Shared Memory, Named Pipes. 2001-01-11 10:02:57.85 server SQL Server is ready for client connections
I've checked to see if something else is using port 1433 (unlikely) and don't see anything. The physical node that SQL 2000 is currently on has no other cluster resources assigned to it. Any ideas?
Today I have task to move all UDB's including matser,msdb form Windows 2000 server to Windows 2003 Advacned Server with 64bit(8 Hours Down time)
Present Plan
1.Install same Version of SQL Server in Destination Server 2.Take all Databases Backup 2.Move DTS,JOB and Scripts with same location 3.Stop both servers SQL Server's 4.Deattch all Databses and Move to Destination Server 5.Place all Databases(Same Loaction i.e Soruce Server master DB is C:<folders>.. Place in Destination Server C:<folder>..) 6.Start the Databse Servers(Destination) 7.Port the Apllication and Test.
Note:for our project we are using windows users,so that no problem with Orphan users.
Please some body Advice me, or suggest me ..it is ok
I want to know how people are backup up their win2k system and SQL 2000 server. If you want a run backup once a night and first backup win2k file system and then run backup using sql agent will that work? Thanks.
Hi While configuring an active / active cluster, do I need to run the SQL setup on both nodes? The SQL2K setup installs binaries on localdisks of both nodes - hence the question.
After installing SP2 we encounter a problem with MMC. When selecting a DB we recieve a RunTime error? And the DB items/properties are not shown. Is there anyone with the same problem and knows how to fix this? I search the MS site for more information but there is nothing on it.
I am going to install SQL7.0 on the current NT4.0 with SQL6.5 on it by uninstalling SQL6.5 first and then installing (not upgrading through Wizard) SQL7.0.
Here are the questions I need help with: 1. Should I convert the database after the installation of SQL7.0 or directly restore the SQL6.5 databases backup? 2. If I need to convert the databases, How and in what way? 3. Which way is better upgrade or installation?
Current system 2 x 500mhz pIII 512MB ram, System mirrored and data raid 5 30GB made from 3 disks. All server is running in CA TNG. an Asset management DB and Software Delivery database. But the poor server runns most of the time at 100% 65% being used by SqlServer process. Does/Can anyone recommend any tweaks upgrades that may let the server take a breath in and out ie will more memory speed thing up faster processors or more disk.
i'm brand new in the sql server world so maby this is an easy problem.
I have to get data from AS/400 to SQL7. I've created a package with a client acces odbc driver and an sql driver which transfers the data of an entire table. When i execute this it works fine.
Now i want to shedule this (shedule package). When i start this job it doesn't work.
This is the error i get:

on the server i've installed client access as well and created the same odbc driver (with the same name). But it still doesn't work.
I have a database on a 6.5 server but wish to upgrade this database to a sql 7 database. But I would like to test this first on another server which is a sql 7 server. Is it possible to restore a 6.5 backup to a SQL server 7.0 server?
Is there a way to list all the tables in each of the filegroup in a database. I have a database with 7 filegroups and would like to have a list of tables in each filegroup Sp_helpfilegroup gives you list of filegroups and the names of files
I recall seeing something about an extra / additional / enhanced / second version of Help that is available after installing SQL7 SP2. Does anyone know anything about it, such as where to find it? Thanks.
