I need to max out on RAM somewhere around 3 to 4 GB and I am using SQL 2000. Standard SQL 2000 RAM is limited to 2 GB. SQL Enterprise 2000 is maxed out around 32GB and it cost is $1K. I need to purchase a Windows based SQL package but I can't find the specs on SQL Standard 2003 (which is ~$700) to compare. What is the Max RAM for SQL Standard 2003? Which is a better purchase relative to RAM? What O/S is recommended as this also limits RAM usage?
We got SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP3 running on Windows 2003 Standard Edition server.
Now, we would like to apply windows 2003 SP2 to the Operating System.
We are concerned that whether windows 2003 SP2 is compatible with SQL server 2000 (SP3)?
I was looking at the application compatibility chart for Windows 2003 SP2.Among them Microsoft SQL Server Standard (2000) was listed but with no Service pack details. And also does Standard means standard edition there?
My Question - Is windows 2003 server SP2 compatible with SQL Server 2000 (SP3) Standard Edition? And what if I plan to apply SP4 to Sql Server ?
How do SQL 2000 service packs play a role in upgrading? That is, can SQL 2000 Standard with no Service Packs(SP) be upgraded to SQL 2005 Standard, or does SQL 2000 Standard have to have a certain service pack??
My uncle runs a small networking company and has extra licenses for Windows 2003 Server as well as SQL Server 2000. Since I just graduated from college and have started working as a database programmer (for a different company) I'd like to setup a small server at home to learn more about SQL (as well as networking, but SQL is my primary concern). I know I can setup SQL Server 2000 on my main PC, but I'd still like to set everything up in a server environment.
So, what I'm wondering is if any books (or web sites?) exist that walk you through setting up Windows 2003 Server and SQL Server 2000. I've actually set these up before (it's not very complicated) but I'm not sure if I did it the "correct" way.
Ideally if any books exist on O'Reilly's Safari Bookshelf that would be even better.
is SQL Clustering possible with Windows 2003 Standard Edition? I have read, we need Enterprise Edition but it is too expensive. is there any alternate solution?
I am trying to do a new install on Windows Server 2003 R2 (32 bit). I have a disk (DVD) that contains SQL 2005 Standard edition in two folders, Disk 1 and Disk 2. It also has SP1 in a third folder.
First, it will not auto-play. I can find the "splash.hta" file, and when I run it, I get the splash screen that says SQL 2005 install, disk 1 of 2. If I use the options that I was told to by my electronic medical record software company, the installation begins and goes ok. It installs about 2/3 of the components, and then says "Please insert disk 2." I do not have a second disk!!
I even tried copying each folder, Disk 1 and Disk 2 to two separate CDs and tried to install that way. I still get "Please insert disk 2" and the installation will not complete?
Is it possible to create a new user into Windows 2003 users table (not Sql) through a sql 2005 query ?
I ask this because I forgot the admin password of the Windows 2003 server and this is in a remote location, so I though, since I have the admin password of SQL 2005 server, maybe it could help me to log onto Windows 2003 and reset windows admin password.
I copied the MSDN setup DVD content to a local drive from USB DVD drive. Started the setup process; accepted the EULA and setup installed the SQL Native Client and Setup Support Files successfully. During System Configuration Checks, the process raises the following dialog:

I am having major performance issues with Microsoft SQL 2005 x64 Standard Editions performance on Windows Server 2003 x64. The PC has two quad core cpu's with 8gb of ram and running a 500gb mirrored SCSI (Raid 1) drive system. The database running on the server is about 11gb. I've run a defrag several times which helps a little but I was hoping I could do something else to increase the performance.
I have also found that the bottle neck in the SSIS package is the backup and restore process of an 11gb database which takes about 1 hour (backup takes 1 hour and restore takes 1 hour) when it should take about 11 minutes. Is there anything I can do to make these processes run faster or to find out why they are taking so long? Any ideas would be a great help.
I am testing SQL 2005 Standard (32 bit) on a Windows 2003 Server 64 bit with 8GB of RAM? Should I enable the AWP Setting or not and should I change the maximum server memory (currently saying 2GB)?

I have installed a licensed copy of Windows Small Business Server 2003 R2 and was attempting to configure the bundled sql server. The indicator icon in the system tray isn't green (the service hasn't been started). When I right click it and select 'Open SQL Server Service Manager', both Server and Services are blank and the refresh button does nothing. How do I coax this bad boy to start so that I can configure it?
I may not be the best forum for this post, however I believe some onecan still help me or direct me somewhere else.I'm finding that win 2003 x64 and SQL 2005 CTP is slower than win 2003and SQL 2000.Machine A: Opteron 2.2 (248) w/ 2 cpus. 8GB memory.

IDE Drives.Windows Server 2003 (32bit) and SQL Server 2005 (standard).I'm using Cognos' DecisionStream as the ETL tool (32bit). I have theidentical job on both machines. Machine A is slower to do my nightlybuild (1h 20m) vs. Machine B (50m).I've done no tweaking of the databases. I Used SQL 2005's studio tocopy the database from Machine B to Machine A.The only major difference is the O/S and SQL, the machines are samespeed, however Machine A has twice the memory and faster disk; so Iwould expect it to be faster.Can anyone think of smoking guns I might be missing?TIA

Hello!I would like to change the SQL server 2000 from Standard version toDevelopment edition. I have two database running on this server, bothreplicated, with few jobs, etc ... Can you recommend the easiest way to dothis? I heard, it would be as easy as, detaching the databases, deletingcurrent SQL software, installing different one, and attaching the olddatabases back. I doubt that is true, so that's why I'm asking here for anyreal-life instructions.Thanks for your input!Kind regards,Dejan--

We recently upgraded our SQL 7 servers to 2000, and we have a gooddeal of distributed queries in the form of Stored Procedures that runbetween them throughout the day. After the upgrade, I began gettingthe "CONNECTION BUSY PROCESSING RESULTS FROM ANOTHER COMMAND" error.This is intermittent but is wreaking havoc on our operations. The samequery ran fine on the 7 server setup. I have exhausted all optionsthat I know of. All of the postings I have seen on these boardsrelate to recordsets and ADO and having cursorlocations setincorrectly, our stored procedure simply selects a count(*) from atable on a remote server. Doesn't seem to make sense. Anyone seenthis before or know a remedy? Thanks in advance.Dave

I have been unable to install SQL Express 2005 Server on my Windows 2003 Server (with SP2 installed). I keep getting an error message saying that Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 is not installed.
Click here for image
So, I downloaded Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 v2 (WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe) but whenever I try to install it I get an error message saying that "the Service Pack version of this system is newer than the update you are applying" and that there is no need to install the update and it stops there.
Click here for image
Is there a workaround to this? How can I get Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 installed? I tried going to the Windows Update site, I already have everything installed and I even started the Windows Installer service manually. Has anyone else experienced this?
How can I get SQL Server 2005 Express installed if not how can I install SQL Server 2000 on tihs machine? The only reason I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 is because wanted to try it so I uninstalled SQL Server 2000 now I can no longer install SQL Server 2000 again because it won't let me because of the SP2 patch.
SQL server 20005 SP2 is install in my WIN XP machine. I implement a SSRS report and try to deliver the report to a share folder in window 2000 server.
I create and set permissions on a shared folder as per the information in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345228.aspx. The account that I use in subscription is local admin account in the target machine.
I have try path \<servername>c$XXX and \<servername>XXX. Both is not ok.
I find following error message in the log file of reporting service.
ReportingServicesService!library!d!04/29/2008-00:03:40:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.FileShareDeliveryProvider.FileShareProvider+NetworkErrorException: A logon error occurred when attempting to access the file share.

If I try to deliver same report to a share folder in WIN XP in the same way. It is ok.
