Install Of SQL Server 2000 Dev Edition Over MSDE. Any Advice Appreciated.
Jul 20, 2005
It's arriving from ebuyer tomorrow for 32 quid. I already have an
instance of MSDE running on the laptop and ideally i would like SQL
server to be installed and use the current instance and not install
any other additional services. [hope i got my terminology correct
here.] Basically all i would like is to use the Enterprise Manager
with my existing MSDE database. I was wondering if there is anything i
should be doing before I install. Should i shut down the service or
leave it running for instance.
I have been using MSDE and I recently got Microsoft SQL ServerTM 2000 Developer Edition as part of my MAPS pack. Can and should I replace MSDE with Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition on my development pc? Thanks in advance for any advice on pros and cons or known issues?
I recently upgraded my MSDE server to SQL Server 2000 database. After the upgrade, I see, every minute,in the logfile that the database is starting whilst in Enterprise manager the database is up and running. I would be grateful if you could bail me out of this anomaly.
I am facing a familiar issue, with a slight variance in the situation. I have already spent hours googling for a solution, so along with the problem I'll highlight what I have already tried to remedy it.
Problem -------- I am trying to install SQL Server 2000 Dev. Edition on my Win XP SP1 platform. I did a default instance installation. I am able to start up the server and keep it up.
Issue ----- On opening the Enterprise Manager I get the error, "SQLDMO.DLL not registered, re-run SQL Server setup etc."
Next I navigated to <install dir>Microsoft SQL Server80ToolsBinn and executed regsvr32 sqldmo.dll and I get the following error, "LoadLibrary("sqldmo.dll") failed - Invalid Access to Memory Location"
Comments ---------- I have verified that all the relevant dlls are present in the above and <...>system32 folders. I have also created an alias for the server using the client network utility.
There was a time when I had installed SQL Server 2000 previously and I did manage to get it to work, even the sqldmo.dll registeration bit. But uninstalled it subsequently as I was having space issues.
Since then I have installed various XP hotfixes and security fixes, except for Win XP SP2
We have a suite of applications which go through the full product life cycle and I was wondering which SQL Server edition should be installed in every each environment from Proof of Concept -> Dev -> -> UAT -> Systest...
Production is straight forward but I am just not sure about all the other environments.
I know people have put up this question before but I wanted some updated feedback. I just bought Visual Studio Tools for MS Office and it comes with SQL Developer Edition. I am currently using VS.net 2003 and using MSDE with MS SQL Web Data Administrator to build my dbs then export the sql script. I was wondering if I should uninstall the MSDE and install the DEv Ed so I can develop all the triggers, constraints etc through Enterprise Manager, therefore having a better setup DB. I know you can do all that through code but why reinvent the wheel. One last question, with the Dev Ed you just export the schema and scripts to a machine with SQL Server installed once the DB is ready for deployment ? Is this correct? I lied one more question, does the uninstall of MSDE leave much of a mess, what is the best way to get rid of it. Thanks in advance Pete
In 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.
I'm facing a problem while installing the SQL Server 2005 Express on Windows 2000 Pro with SP4.
After finishing the downloading from Microsoft I start the installation and things seems to go ok but during Extracting Files step a message appears "SQL Server Setup unexpectedly failed. For more information, review the setup summary log file in %Program Files%Microsoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOGSummary.txt" and it terminates the installation.
I located the log file and open it but can't understand the problem..I copy the text and paste it here for anyone who can understand it.Please, it is very importand for me to work with SQL Server for my project. Any advice or information or anything else???
Thank you all,

I am developing a project in Vb.net using MSDE 2000 as backend. I want to deployment my project in win98 OS PCs. is it possible to install msde 2000 in win98
I am getting an error when installing SP3a of MSDE. I get the error message "The instance name specified is invalid." This is the first SQL database installed, so there is no instance name. I have tried "default" and "MSSQLSERVER" as instance names without success.
I have clients that have the MSDE version installed and we need to upgrade there program to the MSSQL 2005. Is there an easy way to convert the data? Should or Could I uninstall MSDE and than install MSSQL2005 WorkGrp? Will there data be affected? Any tips would be appreciated.Thanks!
Hi there Our ISP hosts our data on SQL Server Enterprise, but I also going to host the databases on my local machine. As it's just local would Standard edition do? If I migrate the databases over, will it work? Thanks in advance.
I've been using SQL Server 2005 Std. for my development work on a laptop w/ 2 GHz Celeron and 768 Mb RAM. Now that Express Edition has Reporting Services and Full-Text Search, would I be wise to just use it instead? I actually have both on my machine since Express Edition installed with VS 2005 Standard. Also, if I uninstall SQL Server 2005 Std. what will I lose? Thanks in advance.

Here I need some help or suggestions for the following topic...
I am using SQL server 2000 enterprise edition installed on the machine. Now I wanted to change the edition from enterprise to standard. There are around 4 user databases exists on the server. What are the areas I have to take care while doing this? Could I do as normal installation? No log shipping implemented on the server.
I have heard that machines running applications with embedded MSDEfrequently experience conflicts between the MSDE apps and otherapplications such as BackupExec. What can anyone tell me about this?And if this is true, does/will the new SQL Server Express Editionbehave better?
I am migrating from MSDE to Sql Server Comapct Edition.I want to how will it affect the code and how large the changes will be. For example will i need to change only the connection string or if some of the methods used by MSDE or not available in the CE version. Any information and ideas reagrding this will be useful.
I can't connect to any instance of MSDE on my laptop using my web app. I duplicate the whole process on another local machine and have no problems. I'm using DNN, but it's not a problem with a connection string.
Over the last week I've had to rebuild this laptop - reformating and all. I'm running win xp pro, vs'03. I've tried this on msde2000sp3a & msde2000rela. Everthing is fully patched, updated, and current.
I'm working on two pcs at the same time with identical environments, doing one step on one keyboard and then the other: I take one set of fresh DNN files and install them on each pc. create a new db, user with dbo rights. create a new virtual directory in iis. alter the dotnetnuke.sln, dotnetnuke.vbproj.webinfo to reflect the path to the local site. alter the web.config file with the connection string. browse to the website (this is how dnn launches, creating the db from scripts, etc.)
At this point my desktop pc works great and I've got a new instance of DNN.
My laptop does launch dnn, but it can't connect to the db and says there's a problem with the connection string - but the only difference in the strings is the instance name - which isn't spelled wrong!!!!
So I'm led to believe that there is something wrong with the setup on the laptop which was just rebuilt.
It's got .net 1.1, msde2000sp3a, winxppro sp1. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all the components I can think of.
What would you do??? I'm completely out of ideas on this.
Do I format the hd and start again? That would hurt, but I've tried everthing else I can think of.
Oh, here's the other rub. I can create a system dsn, test the connection - and it works! I know that point's toward dnn, but like I've said I believe I've ruled that out.
I am trying to upgrade MSDE 2000 to MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) using a silent install. MSDE on our systems is installed as a standalone product. There is only a single default instance (MSSQLSERVER) running on the system. SQL Authentication mode is being used. When I try and upgrade MSDE 2000 directly to MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2, the install fails with an error:
"SQL Server Setup Cannot Upgrade the specified instance by using SQL Server Credential. You must use Windows Authentication credential for the upgrade"
When I try to upgrade the default instance of MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 selecting Windows authentication (logging in as a domain/local administrator to the server), the install fails with an error:
"Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user <mydomain><AdminID>"
However, MSDE 2000 upgrade to an earlier version of MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Build 9.00.1399.6) using SA Authentication works successfully without any errors.
So I tried to upgrade our MSDE installation to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) as a 2 step process. First by upgrading MSDE to SQL Server 2005 (Build 9.00.1399.6) using SA Authentication which works successfully as mentioned earlier.
However, when I try and upgrade SQL Server 2005 (Build 9.00.1399.6) to SQL Server 2005 SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) using SA Authentication, I receive the same error as before:
"SQL Server Setup Cannot Upgrade the specified instance by using SQL Server Credential. You must use Windows Authentication credential for the upgrade"
When I upgrade using Windows Authentication, the setup displays the following error:

The registry entries suggest that the version now is 9.00.3042.0. However, I am not sure if the upgrade was successful. I can connect to the database using the old SA user ID and password.
If anyone else has faced similar issues, please let me know the workaround for the same.
I am planning an upgrade from MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 (Build 9.00.3042.0) for our 2000/2K3 Servers. The MSDE installation on our servers is a standalone installation (default instance) and uses Mixed Mode Authentication. When I execute the setup program for upgrade and choose SQL Server Authentication (and enter the corresponding SA user Id password), the setup program displays an error "SQL Server Setup cannot upgrade the specified instance by using SQL Server Credential. You must use Windows Authentication credential for the upgrade". However, when I select Windows Authentication for the upgrade, the setup program displays an error €œ[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Password validation failed. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again€? (Error Code 15119).
I even tried changing the Authentication mode from Mixed Mode to Windows Authentication (by changing the LoginMode registry key value to 1) and running the upgrade using Windows Authentication, but I receive the same error.
1) Is the password policy for SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 different from MSDE or SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Initial Version), since upgrade from MSDE to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (Initial Version) worked successfully without any issues. 2) When I am using Windows Authentication for the upgrade, the installer does not prompt me for any password. What password is the installer validating against the password filter DLL? Is there a way to find it out? Also, is it possible to find out what was the reason for the password validation to fail?
I would really appreciate if I could get some answers to all the problems I am facing.
