I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
Customer has an SBS 2000 server setup, and had installed SQL Server 2000 on it. They have an application (Time Slips) which I thought could use SQL, but apparently they bought the standard edition which only supports the use of MSDE.
I thought MSDE was like SQL 2000 "lite". I want to house the MSDE database on the server, but it says it cannot find MSDE.
Do I need to uninstall SQL 2000 Server? And where do I go to install MSDE properly on the server, and what is required for each W2K Pro workstation?
Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I have MSDE install on my machine with Office 2000. I have a sql script(db.sql) that create the database(db1) and its objects. I would like to run this script on this machine. Is there a utility like SQL ISQL.exe in the MSDE version?
Thanks in advance...
Thanks...

I just upgraded the .NET 1.0 to 1.1 today and now when I launch the Web Data Administrator for MSDE it hangs up as soon as I hit the login button.
I reinstalled MSDE and the Web Data Administrator and that didn't correct the problem.
Help!

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn the past I've used MSDE with Visual Studio.NET 2003. I'm going to start studying for an MCP in SQL Server 2000 so I'll probably get SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition. Will I be able to install this on my PC if it already has MSDE installed, or will I need to remove MSDE, etc? If there are any other things I need to be aware of please let me know.
Also should I stick with SQL Server 2000 while studying for the exam, or would I probably be able to use SQL Server 2005 with a book that uses SQL Server 2000? I don't know how different they are.

Hey all...
I was using SQL2000, and liked very much the EM tool etc....
But thought that I should maybe give SQL2005 a trial, so I installed same on my box...restarted...and hey, SQL isn't running.
At least there is no icon in the tray. I have checked under Services and it looks like it's up and running....but I have NO server at all?
What did I do wrong, or what do I need to do to "start" SQL2005?

am i going to cause problems if i install MSSQL2005 on a server with Oracle already installed and running ?

I have a question regarding Reporting Services:
I want to run the Reports on a system that has Oracle Database but reporting Services are not installed there. Only Application exe file will be there designed in .NET Windows Forms.
Reports will access oracle Database.
Hi,
I want to know whether the MSDE is already installed or not on my system using a C# program. For this I have a method which will take the service name as argument and returns whether that servce is found or not. Now I want to know which windows service (service name) will be running on my machine if the MSDE is already installed. Please help me out.
I read other threads with this problem and one solution was to install SP1 on the workstation. Our server is running 9.00.2047(SP1) and my workstation SSMS version is 9.0.2047.00 so I'm assuming it's SP1 and I am still getting this error.
To make matters worse, I have jobs set up to run these packages ON the server, but they aren't working either because I have '...error authenticating proxy...Logon failure unknown user name or bad password'. I'm trying to use my Windows login because it has sysadmin rights; I created credentials, assigned them to a proxy under SSIS Package Execution; in the SQL Agent log I get the error '...SQLServer Error: 22046, Encryption error using CryptProtectData.'.
Any suggestions appreciated.

I have a large VB 6.0 application running with Jet 4.0 Access DB. I am considering moving the DB to MSDE. For testing, I installed MSDE on another computer in a peer to peer network running XP sp1, loaded up the DB from Access to MSDE2000A -- all without problem. (I should add the obvious fact I am new to using SQL server.)
What I find is that with a relatively small test DB, running just a single instance of the application, query response from MSDE is taking several seconds (4-5 second lag) longer than response from the Access DB, which runs extremely fast. This is with the Access DB installed on the same network drive, running the same application and the same queries syntax -- only changing configuration of connection for each (SQL vs Jet 4).
Any clues as to what may be going on? The lag time is unacceptable. I am using SQL password instead of NT security. It seems the process is perhaps lagging in the process of authorization.
Thanks for any suggestions or ideas on this.
Without the Client Network Utility that is available in the full blown MSSQL Server is there a way to find out what port the MSDE is running on?Short and sweet, thats all I needTIA
View 1 Replies View RelatedCurrently I am running MSDE on a webserver. The MSDE was installed by a software package for web survey's. I am wondering if SQL express will interfere with this installation? Would I be better to install MySQL instead?
The problem I am trying to solve is simply giving a web developer some database space so that he can connect his web app to store some data. I'm kind of a n00b at this so I thought SQL express would be the best route. If I'm headed in the wrong direction can someone point me the right way?
Cheers!
Hello,
I have one program using MSDE as database. It runs OK on the machine with MSDE or without MSDE.
But it can not connect to MSDE database if PC with 'Microsoft SQL Server 2005' and 'Microsoft SQL Server Desktio Engine(MICROSOFTSMLBIZ)' installed.
Form SQL Server Server Manager: my instance ...MYINSTANCE and ...SQLEXPRESS are both running OK.
Why not connect to my MSDE instance under this situation? Could anyone give me any advice?
Thanks,
Dennis
I want to view the sample databases within Access 2003. When I try to view them an error message appears saying I need MSDE 2000 but this will not run on Windows Vista which is my operating system. What do I need to view the sample database as well as develop applications within Access using SQL server?

Hi Friends,
I have a question. At my home computer i downloaded and installed VWD. As usual it also installed Sqlexpress as part of the installation(i checked the option). Later on i downloaded Management studio separately so i am fine with my home computer as every thing is free.
But at work we decided to develop application using VS 2005 and Sqlserver 2005. So we bought and installed VS2005 professional edition at work and it also installed Sqlexpress during the installation as a defualt desktop engine. I am fine with that too. But i am not understing where do i get the Management studio? Is it some thing i could get it off the web for free or what? I am not sure we would have an option while installing the VS 2005 professional that also does install management studio and we need to check that option. I am not sure if we could get the management studion off the web for free and and evelop applications.
Please advise. Thanks -L
I want to find whether SQL Server 2005 x86 is installed or SQL Server 2005 x64 is installed programatically(Any API would do.) If anyone can recommend a registry key that I can rely on find whether it is a 32 bit or 64 bit SQL Server that would suffice.

I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my
text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters.
I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate
the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news
item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I
immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a
long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is
"text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test,
I
simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still
recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
Thanks a lot.
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the
same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that
the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed
from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone
know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??

Manfred
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this this question but I'll give it a shot.
The only db development that I have ever done is in MS Access. I have a project at work that is being accomplished in VB and I need a db engine to use as the back end. Visual studio came with a copy of MSDE. Is this tool worth using or should I invest in mySQL? Are there any advantages to using MSDE over mySQL?
In my environment, there is maintenance plan configured on one of the server and while running DBCC checkdb on a database of size around 200GB, log file usage of tempdb is increasing and causing the maintenance job to fail.
What can I do to make the maintenance job run successfully, size of the tempdb database is only 50GB and recovery model is set to simple. It cannot be increased as the mount point on which it is residing is 50GB.
If I start a long running query running on a background thread is there a way to abort the query so that it does not continue running on SQL server?
The query would be running on SQL Server 2005 from a Windows form application using the Background worker component. So the query would have been started from the background workers DoWork event using ado.net. If the user clicks an abort button in the UI I would want the query to die so that it does not continue to use sql server resources.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
One of my stored procs, taking one parameter, is running about 2+ minutes. But if I run the same script in the stored proc with the same parameter hardcoded, the query only runs in a couple of seconds. The execution plans are different as well. Any reason why this could happen? TIA.

I'm just wondering how many people have gone to SQL 7 SP3.
Is it a case of only applying it if it fixes a particular problem you are experiencing, or have you installed it to keep with the latest version ?
Please let me have your thoughts (I'm currently running SP2).

Hey all,
How do I install a SQL Server 2005 Express to have no instance?
I have a SQL 2005 Server Enterprise which has no instance, just the server name, even when pointing to the DB, you just use the server name and the DB name.
I am not any good in SQL, but need to configure SQL Express for a project I am busy with and would like it if I could only have a name, and not an instance.

I'm running Sharepoint server and Visual Studio on Windows server 2003. Sharepoint has its sql (officeServer) and Visual Studio installed sql express when it was installed. I can't connect to either one in VS or anywhere else. I wanted to install the adventureWorks sql database, so as to do SDK samples, and that didn't work either. I really don't understand what's going on with sql and how to use it. I can see both are running in the SQL configuration manager. Can anyone help?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi-
I had previously had VS2005 Beta installed from my MSDN discs. When it expired, I uninstalled it and downloaded VWD Express to install. VWD installed fine, but the SQL Server Express will not install. The VWD install package doesn't give me any feedback, just says it failed. I tried dowloading and installing SQL Express separately, and it tells me that I have to uninstall all components from other versions. I have done that, but still wont install. If I use the uninstall utility on the website, it tells me it can't find any components, and all of the components listed in the manual uninstall instructions are missing, so I can't find anything further to uninstall. (FYI: I'm running XP Pro SP2).
I'm wondering if a registry setting or something didn't get updated on uninstall. I see a registry folder for "Microsoft SQL Server" but I do not know if this could be getting in the way.
Any help would be appreciated.
