I'm trying to install MSDE SP3 which I downloaded from MS at http://www.asp.net/msde/.
Following the instructions as best I can I unzipped the file into a Folder now called MSDE located on C: I then went to a command prompt and typed in the command given to start the install:
setup SAPWD=testsite SecurityMode=SQL
Hit enter and the installer started up and ran for a few secs and then came back with
The Instance named specified is invalid
There was no mention of including an instance name or the format for it.
Suggestions please?
Also, if I want to completly uninstall MSDE if I need to how would I do it?
I have a 2 node SQL Server 2005 cluster with 2 named instances. Both appear to be working properly with no issues but I have the following warning message in the event viewer and I would like to know if it is something I should be worried about.
Source: SQL Browser Type: Warning Category: None User: N/A Description: The configuration of the AdminConnectionTCP protocol in the SQL instance XX is not valid.
The servers in the cluster are running with Windows Server 2003 X64 Enterprise Edition, SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition SP2 X64.
I have failed the cluster over and I continue to get the message when I start the instances in the cluster admin, but I don't appear to have any other symptons. Client machines can connect without any problem and transactional replication works no matter what node I bring the instance up on.
I changed default TCP/IP port and disable/enable Named pipes, but no luck so far. I see lots of postings about this message but it seems to be related to SQLExpress and I am not using that here.
I am getting the following warning in the Application Event Log:
The configuration of the AdminConnectionTCP protocol in the SQL instance SQLEXPRESS is not valid.
The warning is logged by the SQLBrowser service.
This is happening on Windows 2003 server with SQL Server Express 2005. On the same machine SQL Server 2000 is installed.
I am currently unable to connect from remote clients to the instance of SQL Express and I believe it has to do with this warning (I've tried all the usual remote connection troubleshooting without success - enabled protocols, SQL Browser Service running, there is no firewall on the server, I disabled firewall on the client when trying to connect).
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
If you need additional information please let me know.
Our shop recently upgraded to MS SQL 2005 server from the prior SQL 2000 product.
I receive and error during processing related to inserting a value into a field of datatype real. This worked for years under MS SQL 2000 and now this code throws an exception.
The exception states:
The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Parameter 15 ("@TEST"): The supplied value is not a valid instance of data type real. Check the source data for invalid values. An example of an invalid value is data of numeric type with scale greater than precision.
This error is caused by inserting several values that fall outside of a range that MS SQL 2005 documentation specifies.
The first value that fails is 6.61242e-039. SQL Server 2005 documentation seems to indicate that values for the datatype real must be - 3.40E + 38 to -1.18E - 38, 0 and 1.18E - 38 to 3.40E + 38.
Why doesn't 6.61242e-039 just default to 0 like it used to?
I saw an article that might apply, even though I just use a C++ float type and use some ATL templates.
Is my question related to this post?http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=201636&SiteID=1
I've two instances(Default, Named[dynamicsFINANCE]) running on SQL server 2014. However, when I try to connect to named instance say (dynamicsFINANCE) using SQL authentication from local SSMS, I get below error message:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
I assigned a static port number to the named instance [dynamicsFINANCE] 1450. I also setup the firewall rule to allow access to Port 1450.
I have to migrate all objects alogwith all constraints,SP,Triggers, indexes etc from Development instance to Production instance of a DB, all those things are created through wizard ie. Sql server 2000 Enterprise Manager. if i use DTS it only mirates data along with tables and views but constraints,SP,Triggers, indexes etc not yet copied.
can any body help me how can I solve this problem by copying all objects alogwith all constraints,SP,Triggers etc from Development instance to Production instance.
I have a 3 node cluster on which I have installed SSAS as it's own insntance. I have created this as a named instance and can connect to it by serverinstance if I'm on the server itself. However from my desktop I get the error saying instance was not found on server name.
I have defined an alternate port and setup firewall rules and can connect via server:port but not serverinstance. Prior to making this change SSAS was running on default port of 2383 and I could connect just by servername.
I have read many articles for previous versions saying that clustered SSAS will always use 2383 and that you must connect just using servername. However and this is were it gets strange. I have a 2 node UAT cluster with SSAS setup exactly the same way I've described above and I can connect from my desktop as serverinstance.
Should I be able to connect as serverinstances for a named clustered instance in 2012 ?
Hi, I have a task in hand to migrate (upgrade) from SQL2K named instance to SQL2K5 default instance. There are many intranet applications touching current SQL2K. I would like to perform this upgrade such that I don't have to touch any application code - meaning I don't have to change the connectionstring to point to new Default instance. How can I achieve this?
So, in otherwords, here is what I want to achieve:
Current Server: SQL2K: SERVER_AINSTANCE_A (named instance)
If I have both default, I could achive this by setting up DNS alias after migration done so that any call for SERVER_A would point to SERVER_B. But in my case, I don't have SERVER_A, I have named instance. Is there any solution?
I want to move one database from the source SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2000 instance in another machine. I have five user databases in this source SQL instance. How should be my approach to move this single database out of this ? My understanding is restoring this database in the new instance, copying all logins to the new instance and then copying the jobs, DTS packages, alerts, operators only specific to this database will do it. Please let me know if this is exactly what I should do ..

I am trying to set up a Named Instance of SQL 2000 on the same machine that has a default instance of SQL 7.0. The setup always completes and I am able to register the Named Instance of the SQL Server with which it was installed on. However, when I try to connect the users to the database, with both windows and SQL authentication, I receive a SQL server not found error. I have tried an alias setup as well as physically specifying the port number in settup up an ODBC connection. Has anyone ran into similar problems? Also, has anyone been able to successfully complete the process as mentioned above?
I have a server with sql server 2005 installed as the default instance -- I have a piece of software that needs SQL2000 to be the default instance. Is there a way other than install new sql2005 named instance and move databases to rename my SQL2005 instance from <machinename> to <machinename>sql05 for example?
i have installed SQL client instance on my Desktop "Machine-A", and i used to connect to SQLServer2000 running on another "Machine-B" by using valid username and password.
i created a DTS package and i used to run it. im very confused how the communication happens between the two machines and which process run where and which initiates which and which machine allocates waht resources. im really interested to know all these things. if any one know plz help me out.
I work for a mid size company with the usual collection of enterprise applications. We are trying to consolidate our SQL environment consisting of around 100 databases none of which are over 100GB with the average database size around 5GB. Recently a large server was purchased as the "Big Daddy" SQL box. Obviously not all the databases will be moved to this one box but within reason a number can.
My question: What is the best way to configure the box?
1 OS & 1 Default Instance - How do we isolate loops memory leaks etc... 1 OS & Multiple instances, ie:Dedicated instance for each application. - How do you allocate CPU & memory, allow for optimum performance without putting others at risk from a rouge process? Virtualized OS for each application with a default instance - Too much overhead impacts performance?
Future plans include offsite replication, perhaps mirroring with failover.
I'd appreciate anyone else's thoughts ideas? How have you tackled this problem in your environment?
I installed SQL Server 2005 recently on a cluster. I didn't go for the default instance and instead I named the instance option. Now I would like to migrate everything from the named instance to the default instance, which I haven't yet installed.
Is this an easy process? What about the logins and the maintenance plans and jobs? Is there anything else I need to be aware of?
I've never had to do this, but when I downloaded the Web Workflow Approvals Starter Kit, it requested that I install the database into a User Instance of .SQLEXPRESS.
Now the problem is, I've installed it onto a default instance, so I was wondering whether you can create a named instance on top of a default instance... and if so, how would you do that?
Got windows Vista Business edition, installed Visual Web Developer Express, SQL Server 2005 Express SP2, SQL Server Management Studio SP1 in that order. I was developing in VWD express without problems using WinXP but now on Vista Business, the local connection to SQL server appears to be a problem. I know there's nothing wrong with my web.config or anything like that as it was working perfectly prior to running under Vista. If i specify the database on the live website, it works fine. If I specify the test database in app_data folder, I get the following exception:-

I am taking a guess it's somerthing to do with access issues, but can't find anything out on searching the forums etc.. I am setup as an administrator, running VWD as an administrator and for the record, SQL Server Management Studio express works fine. Another small issue, when I run the application from VWD, I always have to minimise the application and restore it as the graphics get corrupt. Please help!! I cannot debug when running of the live website.
The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server. There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'. I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" /> However, I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried: <add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" /> but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used: <add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" /> but this doesn't work either.
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated Thanks...

If you were asked to install SQL 2005 on a machine, would u install a default instance or a named one? And why would u choose one over the other?? Also, r there any issues with using a default instance?
I am new in .NET development and currently trying to learn VWB through Microsoft online tutorials.
Here is the problem that prevents me from getting further:
in VWB, when you right click App_Data and chose "Add New Item" and then select SQL database, the following error message is displayed:
"Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed."
If I cancel out of it, it does generate mdf file under App_Data folder in Solution Explorer, but when I try to open it, it says:
"The item does not exist in the Web directory. t may have been moved, renamed or deleted." and that is where the whole sharade deadends.
I can connect via mycomputersqlexpress under Data Connections in Database Explorer (it then adds "master.dbo" to the path) and then create custom tables, but that is not the same, isn't it? I mean, this will not integrate my database tables through default configuration that I am trying to follow?
when I try to connect to an mdf as a power user, --------------------------- Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition --------------------------- Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed. --------------------------- OK ---------------------------
I was able to do do this before until Saturady when I had to re-install sql server, and express etc due to some system problem on my xp Pro PC. What have I misconfigured?
I do see the service SQL Serer(SQLEXPRESS) started under Network Service and SQL Serfver(MSSQLSERVER) started under local system.
My power user ID does have modify access to the sql 90 database folders. and to the mdf.
No wonder Microsoft is giving it away for free. It€™s not worth anything. I am very disappointed in this version of SQL server. I decided to start learning VB so I downloaded and installed VB 2005 express edition and SQL 2005 express. I tried to build a personal website using the starter kit. I kept getting the following error message, for which I have seen numerous postings on this forum. €śFailed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed.€? I went out and bought the Standard version of VS 2005 thinking there may be a feature that the free express version is lacking. I uninstalled the express version, cleaned the registry, deleted all the folders it created and installed the Standard edition. Then I tried to create a personal web using the starter kit and it does the same thing again. I can not create a database file, connect to a database file. I can not create or attach a database on the SQL 2005 express from VS 2005. The SQL server Express seems to be working OK since I can attach to it using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express. There is something about the way VS tries to connect to the database server that is not working. VB does recognize the local computer as a SQL server but can not connect to it. SQL server is set to accept Shared memory, TCP/IP and named pipes for local clients. What is causing this? This is some information on the system I am using:

I am now to programming but nor computer illiterate. I have been working with MS SQL servers since version 6.5 and have MCSE, Network+, A+ and Security plus certifications. Installing and using VS should not be this problematic. What is wrong with Microsoft?
hello,everybody ,i use the AnalysisServicesExecuteDDLTask ,but it dap an error "DDL is not valid",i don't konw what is the problem and how to solve?thank you!
im doing a sum on a table and it either returns a number in decimal format or 'null' . The problem is when it returns null i want it to just make the text say '0.00'. So i did a test on the object that if it returns NULL just print '0.00' but if it is not null it tells me that there is a number there and i want to store that as a decimal and print it out. But i get an error for a type cast when im not it should not even be going to that part of the code. In the code below the first executescaler will return null so it should just go straight to the else. But it gives me the type cast error in the if that shouldnt be seen. The error and code are below. //Borrower NSF FEES cmd.CommandText = "select sum(itemamount) from postmtdtls where loanid='" + LoanID + "' and Transactioncode = '310'"; object temp = cmd.ExecuteScalar(); if (temp != null) { decimal B_NSFFees = ((decimal)cmd.ExecuteScalar()); borrowerPayoff_NSFFees.Text = String.Format("{0:#,#.##}", B_NSFFees).ToString(); //Borrower NSF FEES } else { borrowerPayoff_NSFFees.Text = "0.00"; //borrowerPayoff_NSFFees.Text = "0.00"; } Server Error in '/WebSite5' Application.

Can't seem to find why I'm getting this error: Specified cast is not valid. Ok, using a stored procedure for SQL Server 2000 and here is the main part of it: SELECT id, rank, firstName, lastName, service, status, createdTime FROM accessRequest WHERE lastName LIKE @tLastName AND firstName LIKE @tFirstName And the C# code behind from the class file: SqlDataReader spResults; conn.Open(); spResults = command.ExecuteReader(); while( spResults.Read() ) { AccessRequestSearch request = new AccessRequestSearch( (int)spResults.GetInt32( 0 ), spResults.GetString( 2 ), spResults.GetString( 3 ), spResults.GetString( 1 ), spResults.GetString( 4 ), spResults.GetString( 5 ), Convert.ToDateTime(spResults.GetString( 6 ))); searchResults.Add( request ); // Add to Array List } spResults.Close(); The part in red is where I think it's happening because that is what I just added to the request. createdTime in the table is set as DateTime. Can anyone see what I am missing here? More info is available if needed. Thanks, Zath
I have a question regarding the backup to use in case of consistency errors.
I'm backing up my dbs daily and logs hourly with 'verify the integrity of the backup when completed' checked. Today I found out one of my tables has 1 page id error (dbcc checkdb message from yesterday), I'm wondering if I can use yesterday's full backup even if it's done after the dbcc, that way I don't have to apply a lot less log backups. In other words, does or does not the full backup inherit the corruption if it is done after consistency errors and the backup passes the integrity verification.
