Installation And Licencing About MSSQL 2005 Standard Edition And Clustering Mode
Feb 8, 2007
Hi,
I have a question about using MSSQL server 2005 standard edition in Clustering mode.
I would like to build a msql cluster with only 2 servers (2 nodes).
I read here -> http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=818234dc-a17b-4f09-b282-c6830fead499&DisplayLang=en
page 5 that you can use MSSQL server 2005 standard edition in Clustering mode with 2 nodes.
But my question is :
Can I use windows 2003 standard edition (Clustering mode managed ????) or I only can use windows 2003 enterprise edition ?
As an ISV, I want to certify my product on Standard Edition. I am using Developer Edition everywhere. Is there a way I can do the certification using the Developer Edition, or do I need to obtain/purchase a copy of the Standard Edition?
I'm looking at the pre-requisite list and I can't find MDAC 2.8 SP1 or greater for XP2 SP2. I found MDAC 2.8 that is compatible with XP2. Is it possible to install SQL 2005 Standard on a XP OS? If so what version of MDAC do I need and where can I find it?
Any other tidbits you can provide to ensure a successful installation?
When trying to install SQL 2005, I keep getting the foll. error:
Error 1706. Setup cannot find the required files. Check your connection to the network or CD-Rom drive. For other potential soltions to this problem, see C:Program ....1033setup.chm
I have tried using two different DVDs, and also downloaded SQL 2005 from msdn, but none of them work.
Hi Experts, Can you tell me the procedure how to install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with CAL licensing? This is very very urgent, Your help would be appreciated..
When I try to install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition, Windows XP SP2, setup fails.
Please help!!!

I've installed this applicaton many times, however, while setting up a new virtual server for TFS, the person installing the server piece didn't choose the appropriate security mode to use when logging in. Due to this, we attempted to reinstall the management studio and the installation keeps failing. We've hit many challenges up and includig using the original cd's instead of an install from a network location. When attempting to install it fails, when we put the error into help, there isn't any help on the topic. We have managed to install everything except XML and management studio. The studio I can go without, but TFS needs the XML piece. Any ideas?
We were recently let down by our software supplier who have happily provided us with a single processor license for SQL Server 2005 before the weekend.. but haven't been able to provide any installation media.
I notice on the website that there is a trial edition of the Enterprise edition for download, that can be converted into a full installation by using a valid license key.
My question is.. would I be able to use that trial edition with my license key? Or are they fundamentally different?
If that isn't an option.. is there anywhere where I can obtain installation files for standard edition?
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?
Hi -I have istalled sql server 2005 standard edition , I want to install sql server 2005 enterprise edition on the same machine. Is it possible? I have Microsoft windows server 2003 SP2 and 1GB RAM. I want to use partition function with the enterprise edition, will the trial version of sql server work for me? -If I have already created a database and tables using the standard edition, will I be able to access and use the database using the installed trial version or will I have to start a fresh creating a new database? - Is it possible to access the same database with any of the installed versions?
BTW, I am prety new to sql server and databases , I am trying to learn by myself
Hello!M a newbie.. I just want to know, that wots the difference b/w SQL Server Standard Edition and Express Edition.?And can I use Visual Studio 2005 (Professional Edition) with SQL Server Express Edition.?
Dear All,We have a database which contains many tables which have millions ofrecords. When We attach the database with MS SQL Server 2005 StandardEdition Server and run some queries (having joins, filters etc.) thenthey take very long time to execute while when We execute same querieson Enterprise Edition then they run 10 times faster than on standardedition.Our database does not use any features which are present in EnterpriseEdition and not present in Standard Edition. We want to know what arethe differences between Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition forperformance. Why should we go for Enterprise Edition when StandardEdition has all the features required.We are presently using evaluation versions of SQL Server 2005 Standardand Enterprise Editions.Thanks and regards,Nishant Sainihttp://www.simplyjava.com
I am attempting to upgrade a 2005 Standard Edtion to Enterprise Edition. This is a default instance. All components are upgraded successfully except the Database Engine. I receive the following error:
SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The certificate cannot be dropped because one or more entities are either signed or encrypted using it.. To continue, correct the problem, and then run SQL Server Setup again.
This installation does not have encryption enabled, so I do not undersand the error or how to correct it.
After rebooting the SQL instance appears to be upgraded to Enterprise, but it cannot be upgraded to SP2.
Hi all--I'm researching the cleanest downgrade path from a trial edition of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise to a licensed Standard Edition copy. It looks like downgrading will entail uninstalling the old version and installing the new version, but I'd like to save the original setup as much as possible. Detaching the old databases will preserve the non-system databases; what method would work best for restoring the system databases?
I am new in clustering setup and I have a MSSQL2005 (Enterprise edition SP1 and Win2003 Enterprise edition) standalone production server and it will be setup with clustering and SAN. How can I setup the clustering? What are the steps?
I have a testing machine to setup new sql clustering which is working fine. I wonder how to setup from a standalone server. Kindly advise. Thanks in advance
I'd like to upgrade from my current SQL Server version: 09.00.3042 (Workgroup edition that comes with SBS upgrade) to the standard edition that I've just purchased. I've attempted to run setup.exe SKUUPGRADE=1 from the command prompt and it just tells me that there's nothing new to install.
I don't really want to uninstall the current installation just to do something that shouldn't be complicated to do, upgrading software versions should not be a difficult process.
I tried to download PerformancePoint Server Trial Version to ther server today and I got to the configuration point of the Analysis Services Setting, and when I clicked next to proceed with the configuration I got a popup error message: "Microsoft Analysis Server must be Evaluation, Developer or Enterprise Edition".
Now I have SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition Disc (Bought it with Visual Studio 2005) but on the server I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition, if I try to run the sql server developer Edition disc, I use the wizard download and it seems that the download is going through the SQL Server entire download, it's like I'm re-downloading SQL Server all over again.
Does that seem right? what is the best approach to work around this probelm?
I got a problem in my development phase. I'm developing a web-application system that running merge database technology which is centralized database and distributed database. This is because my customer want a highly optimum system standby.
My centralized database running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and the distributed database running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (because it is free). Each of these database, the users can change the data on its database. So, every database must have the same data. from my understanding, each server must act as Publisher and Subscriber. Can SQL Server 2005 Express Edition be a Publisher?
If not, what the solution you all may suggest, because cost is the first factor. If my architecture is not correct, so what you all suggest to me to resolve the problem.
Thanks so much. Any suggestion and opinion is highly appreciate and I'm highly thanks to you all.
because we installed the SQL Server 2005-64Bit Developer Edition on a 2003 Server R2-64Bit with 10GB RAM an 2 Xeon. Now we have huge performance problems wich should be better using the Stadard Edition...
I don't know if it is easily possible to upgrade by only inserting the DVD and start the Setup...
I have been unable to create a replication from an SQL Server 2005 standard edition database to remote SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The remote express edition is on a Virtual Private Server we are leasing from a hosting company. The name of the remote DB is similar to vs572.si-vs572.com. I can connect to this with SQL server authentication through Management Studio and also with SSIS. But, I have been unable to create a push subscription (I have tried a test push subscription with the same publication to a local SQL Express server here in our office and this works fine).
Here is the error message: SQL Server Replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'VS572SQLEXPRESS'.
The hosting company had originally installed a shared SQL server which would not support replication. They then installed SQL Express edition and I was hoping this would allow us to run a replication.
I tried to connect to VS572SQLEXPRESS with out any luck. I check the remote connections, made sure replication was installed, etc., but no luck.
Hi, At present there is no windows server machine in the company.
I would like to install sql server 2005 standard edition on a windows xp pro machine.
1) Can this sql server 2005 standard edition on xp pro be our main central sql server 2005 which holds all databases and instances in the company where other machines can connect to?
2) The idea is that in the future when the windows server machine has arrived, I will then install sql server 2005 edition on that windows server machine and move the existing databases from the the current central xp pro machine to it.
3) IS it best to instal standard edition on windows server only?
Dear all,I've been using ASP.NET with SQL 2005 express for several months and everything has been fine. Now a customer asks me to install my application on an already existant instance of SQL Server standard edition.I was not able to use nor my application, neither a HelloWorld example.I created a simple Default.aspx that uses a simple database with a single table "Person" via a standard gridview. When I try to open the page I receive an error wich informs me that NT Network service is not able to access database.I've been searching on google for hours and I've tryed unsuccessfully several different way.Can anyone suggest me a scientific procedure to migrate an ASP .net web site from sql 2005 express to sql 2005 standard ?Thank you very Much Fabrizio
We have developed a database with a lot of information in and we are going to move this database from a Win XP with SQL 2005 Express to a Windows 2003 server with MS Sql Standard 2005. How can we do that?

2.8Ghz P4
1Ghz Ram
120Gb IDE hard drive
with windows 2003 standar edition operating system
The part number for the stanard edition of SQL is 228-04025

I installed SQL Server 2005 flawlessly yesterday. When login as "sa" through SQL Server Management Studio, I get an error message saying it cannot connect to my PC.
I checked the MSSQL Server Service. It is not started and cannot be started because it's looking for a path that does not exist!.
The folder in question is missing. C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL
The following folders do exist: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1 C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2
I initially suspected this problem was cause by a previous MSDE 2000 installation.
I uninstalled SQL Server 2005 & MSDE 2000. I re-installed SQL Server 2005. Same problem. I executed http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/320873 to make sure all registries are removed and manually deleted C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server€™s content
Re-installed SQL Server 2005. Same problem.
I do not know what do in order to get SQL Server 2005 up & running.
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?
I'm getting some conflicting information , regarding sql 2005 Standard Edition licensing for multi instancing.
If you have multiple instances of SQL 2005 Standard Edition on one Server, do you need to pay a server license for every Instance or just the one Server license?

I installed SQL 2005 Standard edition on a failover cluster (Windows 2003). It is in production. Vendor wanted Enterprise Edition. What are my options to migrate to Enterprise? Is there an in-place way to do this, or is it a big deal?
Vendor probably doesn't need Enterprise. It's a low volume OLTP application with small databases. No fancy stuff (other than the failover clustering). Vendor simply did not test his application on Standard so he says we need Enterprise. Nevertheless, Management will probably want me to make the change.
Hello all, I have installed an SQL 2005 Standard Edition and I deploy 1 RS in the web server successfully. I wanted to know if there is a possibility to install another RS on my 2nd web server (I have 2 web servers because I have WSD active/passive) although I know you can use scale out only in SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition!
