Has anyone had experience of migrating from 2000 to 2005 on the same box , and maintaining the SERVERNAMEINSTANCE_NAME. What are some effective ways of migrating and retaining the same servername/instance name ?
The issue revolves around minimising the use of extra boxes , as I would like to do the migration on the same server and keep the name the same .

We are migrating from SQL Server 2000 to 2005. We currently use ADO.Net to make connection to sql server. I just want to know after migration to sql server 2005 do we have to make any changes in code in the way we make connection to use ADO.Net2 which is part of sql server 2005. ??
I am migrating a database from Oracle to SQL Server 2005. I have a problem when migrating code from PL-SQL (oracle labguage) to T-SQL (sql server language). My problem is: there is pseudo-column in oracle called level that return the level from a register in a tree view of a select (a parent-child relationship). I would want to know how to translate that level column to T-SQL. Thanks!
I created a web site using the "personal web site" starter kit with Visual Studio 2005. It created an ASPNET MDF file as well as a Personal.MDF in my App_Data directory.
I want to migrate this site to a production server that does not have SQL Express, but does have a full version of SQL Server 2005.
How do I migrate both the database format (tables and SPs) as well as the data to the SQL Server?
I can't find anything that looks like Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer on my system, and installing the "native client tools" doesn't do anything except install configuration utilities (no clients).
Inside of Visual Studio 2005, I can bring up both databases (one from the MDF file(s) and one using a connection string to the server), but there doesn't appear to be any way to copy from one to the other.
whenever i modified the connection of my current database...I'll always got an error,when asking for "server name"..it says [DBNETLIB...etc]Named Pipes etc error..my current database was SQLEXPRESS and i want to change it as an SQL OLEDB,2000,2005.. but as i said il always got an error..sometimes it says "SQL server does not exit..ODBC" etc...when im entering the "server name"..so i could only used Access or SQLEXPRESS server database.. what should i do with the error?? thanks for helping again..
Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right place to seek help. I'm trying to migrate a small sql 7 database to a new server runing sql 2005 server express. is that possible? if anyone has any instructions or point me to the information that i need to get this done. i'm not a dba so any details instructions would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I have a problem, i am upgrading a system that uses Oracle databases for using SQL Server 2005 databases. The thing is that the operator (+) (involved in many queries) is from Oracle and operators(*= and =*) are not supported in SQL Server 2005 (and not comply with the Ansi standard) i need help translating these queries. An example would be like this:
SELECT ...
FROM IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ, IBA_MPPERMISOS, IBA_MPENTIDADES, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS, IBA_MPPROCEDENCIAS, IBA_LOCALIZACIONES, IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC, IBA_USUARIOS
WHERE IBA_LOCALIZACIONES.ID_LOCACLIZACION = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.ID_LOCACLIZACION AND IBA_MPPROCEDENCIAS.IDPROCEDENCIA = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIA AND IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION AND IBA_MPENTIDADES.IDENTIDAD (+) = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDENTIDAD
AND IBA_MPPERMISOS.IDPERMISO (+) = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPERMISO AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.IDREQUERIMIENTO = IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDREQUERIMIENTO AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.USERNAME = IBA_USUARIOS.USERNAME
ORDER BY ...
I didnt include the SELECT and ORDER BY text because i dont think its important. Also i know that you have to move the outer joins to the FROM clause but i didnt manag to get it. Could you help me? thank you in advance.
When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;
Performing operation...
- Add log for package (Success) - Add task for transferring database objects (Success) - Create package (Success) - Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success) - Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error) Messages * The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)
When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;
InnerException-->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 already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).

How to Downgrade a Database from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000
As you may all know, SQL Server 2005 request a minimum of 8GB RAM to work€¦ let say satisfactorily. I first didn€™t knew that and after a while from the upgrade I did from SQL Server 2000 to 2005 my SQL Services were starting to crash three or four times per DAY!!!
At first I thought I was being attacked, but soon I realized it was nothing like that. I then decided to downgrade to an SQL Server 2000 edition. Though I looked around the internet to find some information on how to do that, I got very disappointed when I realized that no actual documentation of any kind could be found for that. So I am posting this thread to inform you on the procedures I had to follow for this action.
Before beginning I must assume, firstly that the user, who will attempt such thing, has a basic knowledge of SQL Environment, secondly that he has the two versions already installed (both 2000 and 2005), that a basic backup of the databases has been created and finally that all the 2005 SQL Server Users have been created at the SQL Server 2000 environment as well.
Step 1 Generating Scripts for the Database Elements and Structures
1) Right-click over the desired Database at 2005, Choose Tasks and the Generate Scripts (Option). 2) At the pop-up Dialog Box click at the Script All Objects in the selected Databases check box, to activate it and then Click the Next Button. 3) Set the following Elements to the following Values a. Script Collation , set to TRUE b. Script Database Create, set to TRUE c. Script of SQL Version, set to SQL SERVER 2000 d. Script foreign keys, set to FALSE e. Script Triggers, set to FALSE Then Hit the Next button 4) Select the way the generated scripts should be saved (There are different selections. The most common one is Clipboard). Finally click the Next button till you reach the end. 5) Click Finish
After completing this procedure, we have to move to the SQL SERVER 2000 environment. Here, by using the Query Analyzer, we will have to run the scripts that were generated using the master database. Copy and Paste the script at the Query Analyzer and run it. After that the Structure of the Database will be created.
Be careful, the SQL Server 2005 Edition inserts the Views in a random place through the script. Therefore, all the scripts that are referred to the Views MUST be moved to the end of the script. If the Query Analyzer shows some errors do not be bothered. Delete all the elements created from the script and after you fix the code run it again.
Step2 Moving the data from 2005 to 2000
1) After completing the previous step successfully, moving the data follows. Right-click at the 2005 database you used to run the previous step and select Tasks and then choose the Export Data (option). 2) From the pop-up Dialog Box, select the Source Db and Click at the Next Button. 3) At the next step you will have to choose the destination server and the destination Database for the Data to be exported. Then Click Next. 4) A List of all the Source Database€™s Elements will appear in the screen. Select one by one all the Elements you wish to move and for each one click at the button Edit Mappings (Located at the bottom right corner of the Dialog Box just under the Elements list). A new Dialog box will pop-up. Select the Delete rows in Destination Tables option and activate the Enable Identity Insert Option. (Remember to repeat this action for each of the selected Element from the list that will be moved.
CAUTION!!! A malfunction of the SQL Server 2005 has been found. Not sure why, after multiple tries I have observed that when I tried to move more than twelve Elements at once, the Export Data Wizard of SQL Server 2005 seemed to disable the Enable Identity Insert Option that was activated over the Edit Mappings Dialog Box. But if the number of the selected Elements is smaller than 12 no problem seemed to appear.
Step 3 Generating Scripts for the Database Foreign Keys and Triggers
Finally, to successfully finish the downgrade of the Database, the Triggers and the Foreign Keys of the DB must be produced. The procedure that should be followed is the one stated next:
1) Right-Click at the SQL 2005 Database and Select from Tasks Menu the Generate Scripts Option. 2) Using the pop-up Dialog Box make sure that the check box Script All Objects in the selected Databases is not enabled and hit the Next Button. 3) Set all the Elements on the List to a False Value except the ones that follow: a. Include IF NOT EXISTS , set to TRUE b. Script Owner, set to TRUE c. Script of SQL Version, set to SQL SERVER 2000 d. Script foreign keys, set to TRUE e. Script Triggers, set to TRUE Then Hit the Next button 4) After finishing reading the Elements of the Database, a new list will appear at the Dialog Box. Make sure that you select ONLY THE TABLES of the Database and hit the Next Button. 5) At the screen that follows hit the Select All button and the Next. 6) Select the way the generated scripts should be saved (There are different selections. The most common one is Clipboard). Finally click the Next button till you reach the end. 7) Click Finish Button.
After completing this procedure, we have to move to the SQL SERVER 2000 environment. Here, by using the Query Analyzer, we will have to run the scripts that were generated using the master database. Copy and Paste the script at the Query Analyzer and run it. After that the Foreign Keys and the Triggers of the Database will be created.
After these steps the database should be fully functional under the SQL Server 2000 edition.
hello good afternoon, I am having this issue, I need to move reporting services from one server to another, but I need that credentials, roles and reports stay the same. But as the reporting services is integrated with sharepoint, dont know if I can move both at the same or it has to be done one at a time. this is just data migration, but still I will like to Know how it can be done having the same structure with the roles and credentials. or it is prefered to do a ghost?? but the issue will be that we have the reporting services in one place and the data in another... don´t know how this will affect. thanks in advanced for the help.
We are planning to migrate from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005.
I am trying to connect to the SQL Server 2000 using SQL Upgrade Advisor. But I am getting the following error whenever I click on the detect button after entering the server name:
Upgrade Advisor could not detect SQL Server component on the server.
The Network Path was not found.(mscorlib)
Please let me know if any of you have faced the same issue.
I have to 2 database server, one is running in SQL Server 2005 and the other one is SQL Server 2000. Now, I want to transfer my database from SQL Server 2005 to SQL SERVER 2000 and gives error. Any solution?
I am new to SQL Server, but the current project that I am working on has the following requirement:-
1) Migrate the application (a servlet based web application on Apache Tomcat) from Solaris to Wintel 2) Migrate the supporting database from SQL Server 2000 to Sql Server 2005 3) Get IIS to communicate with Tomcat for serving servlet/jsp etc to the client
Though I successfully completed item 1 above, am stuck at item 2. Details are below
Actions taken for item 2
A. Installed MS 2005 B. Created new database in MS 2005 (logged in as user 'sa') C. Generated SQL scripts (such as create table table_A etc) from existing MS 2000 D. Genearted SQL scripts (such as insert into table_A etc) from existing MS 2000 E. Created new schema in MS 2005 F. Ran scripts C & D in the new schema. All tables are records populated. G. Obtained new JDBC driver and test run to see if connection is working fine, and it worked. Even ran an sql statment
Code Block[select count(*) from sa.table_A]
and got appropriate response.
H. When I made the application to talk to this new database (which is a copy of Production from step C, D above), it's behaving as though it cannot find the record. I. When I further debugged, I realised that the web application is excuting queries without mentioning the schema. For eg.
Code Block[Select firstName, lastName from table_A]
Or rather it assumes that the user connecting to database is same as the schema name.
J. To further ascertain my point, I ran the query
Code Block[Select firstName, lastName from sa.table_A]
and it worked!
Now the real problem is that I cannot modify the existing code to append a schema name and this approach is rather not recommended best practise.
I tried to match the user name with the schema name, even made this schema as default to the user. But still not finding any luck.
I request all you experts out there to help me out with this problem.
Hi, I have an application developed using VWD and sqlserver express database. The express database is turning out to be small in size and we need to migrate to larger sqlserver 2005 database. What are the steps for this migration, please list in detail. Regards, Sandy
I have a developer who built an application using the SSE 2005 December CTP and I would like to bring the db's into the official SSE 2005 released version. I have attempted the following:
1. Create the db's in the released version, detach and re-attach the CTP db's. I got an error telling me they were incompatible.
2. Installed CTP version on one server, backed up the db's and then attempted to restore the db's on another server running the official released version of SSE 2005. Got an error attempting that too.
3. Installed the Management Studio for SS 2005 Developer edition thinking that I could connect to the two seperate instances of each server and like I could in EM 2000 run the transfer wizard to move the db's and data from one server to the next. Problem with this is that I can't get an object browser connection established. I have TCP/IP all config'd correctly, too.
Any other ideas where I can go with this at this time?
Hey y'all, I'm looking to migrate several databases on SQL 7 and SQL 2000 to a new SQL 2005 box. Has anyone done such a migration? What would you recommend as a good methodology for it? Also, should I expect stored procedures, triggers, indexes, other complementary stuff to break? I'd love to hear about your migration experiences.
We are planning on upgrading a SQL 7 Server to 2005 SP1. I ran the Update Advisor and one of the issues listed was that the Database Maintenance Plan would not work in Server 2005. The Advisor mentions a tool to use but not which one, which is my first question.
I went online and found some documentation regarding copying the database etc., however, when attempting to copy from the SQL 2000 (DB in SQL 7) to 2005 (I have SQL 2000 and 2005 on my machine) when I try and connect to the 2005 box, its listed as one of the instances but will not connect.
For grins and kicks I backed the database up in the 2000 environment and restored it on a test machine which is in 2005. The Advisor was correct, I am unable to create a Database Maintenance Plan, which I find odd. The Database shows up under the databases but will not show up in the list of db's to create a plan for. So, I attempted to create the jobs and alerts manually.
There has to be an easier way to do this, can anyone help?

Guys! Very very junior in this migration part. Hope the seniors can help out....PLEASE!!!!!! Don't get me wrong asking you guys to spoon feed me. I have read a lot of articles and even BOL and also not to forget read millions of books on this. But just wanted to make sure that I am in the right path and want to do this without any problem. That's why I have decided to ask the Gurus here who have done this in past.
I have this machine now:
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2040 (Intel X86) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: )
Migrating to this machine:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - (X64) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
I have these in the SQL Server 2000 box: 1. Databases, tables (of course) 2. Views 3. Securities(Logins, Roles, Password) 4. DTS packages 5. Jobs 6. Replications 7. Linked Servers 8. Stored Procedures
Every article is different. I was confused at a point of time. Please show me the right way guys!
Yesterday I started this topic and I came step by step higher and now I have finalized my steps to migrate.
Seniors and Gurus and who has done this before, please review and correct me where I am wrong and/or add some tips for me to have this one going on successfully! Thanking all of you guys in advance! Here is what I have:
Before Migrating: 1. Install Service Packs, Security Patches and Hot Fixes 2. Install DTS Designer Tool from Microsoft to prevent conflict and failure of migrating current DTS packages to SQL Server 2005 3. Backup EACH and EVERY Database and double check the .bak files whether it exist and backup was successful 4. Just before migrating, reboot the server to clarify that the SQL Server Services and SQL Server Agent is working When you are ready to migrate: 5. Make sure there are no users trying to connect to the OLD AND the NEW SQL Server. Inform them well in advance about the downtime. Shutdown any applications or websites that might be accessing the SQL Server. 6. Stop the SQL Server, SQL Agent and MS Search Services on the NEW SQL Server If downtime is not possible: 7. For ever changing OLTP database, by the time you restore the backup onto the new server, the old server would have received more changes. To avoid this problem, you need to resort to log shipping. Log shipping is nothing but an automated process of backup and restore. The following steps will explain the process of log shipping (Note that SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition provides inbuilt logs hipping. We don't need that for this purpose. We can simply create a job that backs up and restores the databases 8. Create a job on the old server, with two steps. The first steps backs up the transaction log of the OLTP database. The second step restores this transaction log backup file onto the new server, using WITH STANDBY or WITH NORECOVERY option of the RESTORE command. Schedule this job to run every 10 minutes or 15 minutes, depending on the volume of transactions your OLTP database receives 9. This job will take care of shipping all new transactions since the full database backup, to the database on the new server. Let this job run until you can afford some downtime on your production database (that is, mid-night, or early morning, or a planned maintenance window) 10. Now to be doubly sure, no new transactions are coming in, set the database in 'single user' or 'dbo use only' mode. Take one last transaction log backup of the production OLTP database, and restore it onto the database on new server. This time use the WITH RECOVERY option of the RESTORE command 11. Run UPDATE_STATISTIC on User Database to reorganize all indexes Considerations: 12. Security - The security model changed along with object ownership, but users that own objects will be turned into schemas and all of the object and role permissions will come over. These you will want to look over afterwards, but they should be ok. 13. Unless you have hundreds of them, it is always better to re-create them after upgrading. You cannot detach an MSDB database on a 2000 server and attach it on a 2005 server and have it work. Fortunate in this, we can script out the jobs from SQL Server 2000 and run it on the new SQL Server 2005 14. Typically you will have to re-create your replication too. Again, the good news is that you can generate the scripts for replication on a 2000 server and execute them on a 2005 server and it will create the appropriate articles and publications 15. For DTS packages, it is always recommended to use the Package Migration wizard to do this so that less or no problems will be encountered. Consider about the jobs previously set. 16. Logins can be created by using sp_hexadecimal and sp_revlogin2005
