I am about to work on a SQL server 2005 migration and I have no clue what SQL server 2005 is as I have been working on 2K all along.
Fist of all I am not sure if the given box is having 64bit or 32 bit Operationg System?
Second of all I am trying to find if the SQL server 2005 installed on this box is 32bit or 64bit?
Thanks in advance,

We just built a new server with Windows 2003 64bit OS and installed SQL2005 64bit (named SQLServer let's say) as the default instance and SQL2000 32bit (named SQLServerSQL2000 let's say) as a second instance. The first instance is listening on the 1433 port and the second instance is on the 1344 port.
I can connect to the default instance with Management Studio without issue using the SQL instance name, but to connect to the second instance I have to create an alias with the port number (SQLServerSQL2000,1344) on my machine. I have never had to do that before with a second instance.
I am trying to figure out if this is an issue with 32bit SQL running on 64bit OS or what. I am kind of stumped.
Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!!

I would like to install MS SQL Management Express, and I would like to make sure I am downloading the right files.
Could you tell me how I can find out whether my PC is 32bit or 64bit?
Many thanks

I just installed the 64bit Vista and than wanted to install the 64bit SQL 2005 Std. Server on it.
Note: I downloaded my license from https://licensing.microsoft.com/eLicense/L1033/ProductDetail.Asp?SKU=228-05338.
Installing from SQLSTDSEL.ISO file results in the warning that for the REPORT- Server the .NET version has to be 32bit.
Stopping the installation at this point and try to install from SW CD SQL Svr Standard Edtn 2005 64Bit X64 English #1 x64 MLF.x11-57664 + SW CD SQL Svr Standard Edtn 2005 64Bit X64 English #2 x64 MLF.x11-57665 does not give the above error but on the other hand installs no server at all since somehow the installation routine is not working at all.
Installing now - after at least analysis server and reports server are 64bit and installed - from the first mentioned ISO results in the installation of the DB- Server.... but as a 32bit installation.
Now I wonder what did not work out - so maybe someone here has an idea if and how this problem is solveable.
This may seem like a completely foolish question, but is there any issue in using the 32bit workstation components (on XP) to connect to the 64bit server-side components? New to SQL2K5 and never had any issues using the 2K workstation/server components together.
Thank you!
Hi,
Recently, we have migrated our database from 32bit to 64bit. So far the application is working fine.
But I want to confirm that by any tool or automated process.
Is there any way or tool to check that the migrated data is correct and also to check if migrated database objects will work fine in 64 bit environment.
Any timely help would be greatly appreciated !!
Thanks,
Bala
We have recently migrated from SQL 2000 (32bit) to SQL 2005 on Win2003 (both are 64bit). And we have Legacy DTS packages on SQL 2005, some packages are pulling records from Oracle 10g (32bit server). When I execute the DTS package I am getting following error.
Error = -2147467259 (80004005) Error string: Oracle client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 or later client software installation. Provider is unable to function until these components are installed. Error source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle
Did I need to install/update any MS OLE DB driver for Orace.
Some blogs & forums suggesting to install Oracle 10g Client. If so Which version of Oracle client(32bit/64bit) I have to install?.
Thanks.

I installed what I thought was SQL Server 2005 64bit, but I'm not sure. I used my action pack Microsoft SQL Server 2005 CD, and it's on a Windows 2003 64 bit machine. When I click help -> about in the SQL Server Management Console, it says "Microsoft SQL Server 2005". There's no 64 bit in there.
Can someone tell me how I can find out if I've correctly installed the 64 bit version?
Thanks.
Chris.
Just curious if it's possible, and supported, to upgrade SQL 2005 from32bit to 64bit. This is on top of Windows 2003 64bit. Trying to getthe proper supported config for OM2k7 without blowing everything away.Thanks,JDP

I just started a new job and one of my first assignments was to determine and prove the improvement between SQL Server 2000 32 bit and SQL Server 2005 64bit extension. (Itanium may come later but for now we will live with x64)
I have used SQL 2005 before but only with a fresh install and a new application built from the ground up. Now we want to upgrade our present databases to 2k5. In a previous test by another DBA, he found the SQL 2005 ran slower. However, he realized that he was using SQL 2005 32bit on Windows 2003 64bit. Now we have everything in place, here are the steps I have accomplished so far.
Loaded Windows 2003 64 and SQL 2005 64.
Made a copy of an existing database from a SQL 2000 32 bit
Attached this database to the new SQL 2005 server. However, I keep the compatibility at 8.0.
Updated the statistics and backed the db up.
Had another DBA run a Profiler trace on the production server.
Replayed the trace on the new server.
My problem is this doesn€™t seem to give the information I am looking for. First, we were only looking at queries over 5 minutes and only looking at things from a duration standpoint. We are going to change this. Second, even though I created a template that looks like the one used on the production server, it is not using it.
So how do I compare performance on this 64bit server verses the 32bit SQL 2000. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
We recently migrated our 32bit instance of SQL Server 2005 SP2 to a 64bit instance of SQL Server 2005 SP2. The migration was performed by copying all .mdf and .ldf files (including master, tempdb, etc...).
Everything seems to have worked nearly flawlessly except for a few glitches seeming to relate to the master database. I am hoping there is a way to mitigate these issues without reinstalling and performing the migration again.
First, when attempting to view the Activity Monitork, I get the error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Cannot show requested dialog.
Unable to execute requested command.
Unable to launch Activity Monitor. You may not have sufficient permissions. (ActivityMonitor)
View or function 'master.sys.dm_exec_sessions' has more column names specified than columns defined. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 4502)
Second, the procedure: master.dbo.sp_procedure_params_rowset fails because of the line: option (OPTIMIZE CORRELATED UNION ALL).
Like I said, I know this is probably an issue arising from copying the master database, but if it is at all possible to avoid another migration, I want to.

I installed SQL 2005 on a 64bit server. Can I still use enterprise studio on a 32bit client machine?
The install CD's are 64bit and when I try to find the enterprise studio to install on my 32bit machine i get an error. Is there a place to download the 32bit enterprise studio? What are my options here?
Thanks in advance.

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.

Are there any issues with running the 32 bit version of Windows 2003 server and SQL Server Standard edition on a 64 bit Intel hardware Platform? I don't see why there would be if the OS is 32bit but just thought I'd ask.
Thanks.
I have two 64bit SQL Server Std servers that will be principal and mirror. I also need to stand up a witness. I already understand that the witness can be any version of SQL Server, but can the witness server be 32bit given the principal and mirror are 64bit?
Hi, All:
We have to migrate several 64Bit SQL Servers to 32Bit platform. Due to the 64Bit source systems are all production system, the downtime is too limited. So we can only get the DB files via Detach way. Among the source systems, both SQL2000 and SQL2005 exist.
My question are:
Is it possible to migrate the DB from 64Bit to 32Bit via Detach/Attach?
If ok, how to do that?
Any info will be highly appreciated! Thanks!

I'm sure this has been discussed in the forums before, but I'll ask anyways. I'm replacing our GP server next year to one that will run SQL2k5 64-bit. The current server is only capable of 32bit SQL. I know with some databases changing from x64 to x32 is a bad idea...will SQL Server support it?
Thanks

Can I use Log shipping From 64bit to 32bit in SQL Server2000?

Having looked at the complexities of transforming data from Oracle in a 64Bit Environment to SQL 2005, will SSIS 2008 run nativley in 64Bit. I understand that SSIS 2005 ran in 32Bit, even when in a 64Bit environment, causing great issues in accessing Oracle. Oracle released an update to compensate for this, however can someone please clarify whether SQL 2008 will have the same issues, or will SSIS 2008 be able to speak with Oracle on a 64Bit level.

Hi all,
I've got two VLDBs on 64bit hardware platform + 64Bit-W2003K Std R2 + 64Bit SQL2005 Std Edition.
If I set this guy up as the Principal, can I have the standby/member on 32Bit HW + 32Bit W2003 Std + 32Bit SQL2005?
Will this actually work?

Hi All,
Probably a dumb question but our network guy has installed 64 bit Win2003 on one of the servers onto which I'm tasked with running our 32bit SQL Server 2005 server.
The installation goes through without a hitch and I'm able to get the SP2 installed over the top with no problem. I am, however, having trouble when trying to browse into the Reporting Services pages. I simply get a std "Page Not Found" web page. I've gone through the Report Server Configuration to see if I can get things to come up properly and everything appears to be initializing properly but still "no go"...
Can one of you MVP's give me a direction? I know it's relatively few details to get started but I'll provide whatever's necessary to get me pointed in the right direction.
Thanks

I'm getting
will not acquire
a connection because the package OfflineMode property is TRUE. When the Offline
Mode is TRUE, connections cannot be acquired."
I'm running the 32bit DTEXEC on a 64bit machine since I'm using the Jet provider.
I see in the forum and other places that this error usually occurs when you try to run in 64bit.
I don't get this error when I've tried it, running the 64bit DTEXEC or when I run from BIDS on a 32bit machine.
Any help appreciated.

Hi there. I apologize if this topic had already been covered. I'mtrying to find out whether I can load up a data dump files, generatedoff of a 64bit SQL server on Itanium, to a 32bit MSSQL 2K server. Ifanyone has tried this before, please let me know your findings. Thankyou very much in advance folks.j
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been having no luck trying to install SQL 2k 32bit on Windows 2003 64bit x86 SP1 - I've found several articles regarding needing to put SP4 on the 64bit OS, but my problem is the SQL 2k 32bit ",,x86setupsetupsql" won't run.
I consistantly receive a "...(localuserdir)Local.ins. Unable to load installaion instructions. Error 703."

Anyone come up against a similar problem?

Hello,
I am trying to migrate my reports from SQL server 2000 reporting services 32bit to 2005 64bit. I am following the migration steps that MS specified.
Restored my Reportserver and ReportserverTempDB databases
Then I was using the configure Report services to upgrade these databases but I always end up getting the follwoing exception when I run the upgrade on the "Database Setup" configuration for 'ReportServerTempDB' database

It's driving me crazy, why is it looking for 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB' in the catalog instead of 'ReportServerTempDB'?
Is it possible to migrate from 32bit to 64bit?
Any help is appreciated

View 4 Replies View Relatedissue:
i have an ASP-Application running fine with both SQL Server 2000 and SQL 2005 (both 32 bit)
Now i have to attach a 64bit SQL-Server.
I have a problem with the connection:
This one runs fine with sql 2005 32bit
<%set myConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
myConn.open "driver={SQL Native Client};server=<servername>;database=<dbname>;uid=<uid>;pwd=<pwd>" %>
but not with the 64-bit server:
ADODB.COnnection error "800a0ea9". Provider is not specified and there is no standard provider.
ok, i did some research and came up with the following:
<%set myConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
myConn.open "PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATA SOURCE=<serverip>,<serverport>;database=<dbname>;uid=<uid>;pwd=<pwd>" %>
thats fine, now i get a connect.
Unfortunately, this provider seems to behave different to the one i use in 32bit :
Lets say i have a stored procedure"
create spName as
select * from mytable
when i execute the following
<%sqlstr = "exec spname"
set myRecSet = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
myRecSet.open SQLStr, myConn
response.write(myRecSet(0)) %>
it gives the first value of the first row with the Connection to a 32bit SQL-Server
but myRecSet seems to be empty on my 64bit SQL Server the response.write leads to an error message.
As far as i understand this, the provider used when connecting to a 32bit Server returns the records selected by the last row of the stored procedure into the recordset, but the provider when connecting to a 64bit server does not return these results.
What can i do, if i dont want to rewrite my asp-programming. I hope somebody has the correct naming / syntax for an connection string which allows me to connect my asp-application to the 64bit SQLServer which behaves like the "old" one for 32bit.
I hope my comments are clear enough - english is obviously not my mother-tongue - and somebody can give me a hint.
Thanks,
Heinrich
