Lost In The Confusion Installing SQL 2000A Server
May 6, 2005
Hi all
I am trying to install SQL server 2000a I install per the instructions but when I go to plesk to create a SQL database I get the following error message:
Unable to create database: Unable to create database-dependent object:Database Microsoft SQL server is not running.
I am running a Windows 2003 duel processor server.
I would also like to know if I can upgrade to service pack 3a from 2000a or do I need to install service pack 2 first.
Also should I install service pack 4?
Thanks

What is going on with this program???
When I try to install it I get the error message:
"A strong SA password is required for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to supply the same. Refer to readme for more details. Setup will now exit."
Runing Win2k server, logged in as Administration.
Readme file says nothing about this
As usual, you can't find anything on M$ KB site.
I also tried the MSDE SP3 version - got the same results.

Is it possible to install MSDE 2000A as a local admin and then run it as a poweruser or do I have to have local admin rights when I run it as well?

caution: this is not doubt a stupid newbie question...
In creating vs.net 2005 website, I can add a sql database to my project and a mdf file is created. I can create data providers against this file, etc, just as though it were a database in a sql server instance. I can deploy this dbf file to my finished web site.
Also, I can attach to a running instance of sql server 2005 express, and do exactly the same thing.
I can also take my mdf file created in step 1 above, and attach it to a running instance of sql server express.
Now, I have delt with access databases, and sql server 2000 databases, so this dual nature of sql server 2005 express confuses me a little.
Why would I ever need to use a server instance of sql server 2005 when I can use a file based data file in my web apps? Is there an advantage to one or the other?
I had a thought that when using the file based method, I was actually still using the server based stuff, which would explain why the sql server express notification bubble pops up when I debug on the dev machine.
In any case could someone explain the difference and should I install sql server 2005 express on my deployment server?
thanks.

Hello,
I have the following scenario. An application using SQL Server 2000 SP3 on the server side and clients using MSDE 2000A (SP3a) on the client machine. Since the client is offline quite often merge replication is used to keep the clients in sync.
Now we try to upgrade to SQL Server 2005 SP1. The publisher and distributor upgrade (on the same box) worked fine and all clients could still synchronize. Fine :-)
Now we try to upgrade the clients to SQL Express SP1. Now the problems start :-(
1) After the upgrade the entry within the Synchronization Manager is gone (we can overcome this by using sp_MSregistersubscription or by manually disable and enable Synchronization manager on the subscription properties)
2) Initial Synchronization (takes a long time but) works fine, if I apply changes to the subscriber or force a reinitialize all following synchronization will fail. With the following messages:
Error messages:
The merge process could not clean up the subscription to 'tstvmw23':'TestBase:'TestBase'. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147200965)
Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147200965
New request is not allowed to start because it should come with valid transaction descriptor. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 3989)
Get help: http://help/3989
Remark the test system I use is a nearly empty db (only with full schema and a few lookup tables) with 15MB. The same error occures if I create a new database an subscribe to the same publication.
Please help otherwise I'm forced to step back to MSDE.
Thanks in advance,
Thomas Hotz

I trust you'll bear with an SQL Server newbie with what may seem a rather inane request. I am designing a web app in Web Designer 2005 Express with SQL Server Express. Unfortunately, I'm finding a little confusing with some of the data types when designing tables. I have tried to find information on the various Microsoft sites (general site, MSDN, here) and while I found one document that had a table comparing data types in different implementations of SQL, it wasn't at all helpful. Most of my confusion is with the various string and char types; the numeric types seem pretty straight forward for the most part. However, it might be helpful to know the difference between money and smallmoney/datetime and smalldatetime, particularly space/size information and formatting options (unless the latter is up to the interface). It would also be helpful to know which string/char types correspond to any counterparts they might have in, for instance, Access (with which I am already quite exprienced). Or any particular quirks or idiosyncracies they might have. I don't expect anyone to write a full tutorial, but if someone could point me in the direction of a good online doc, it would be most appreciated. You might well ask, why not use Access databases? I would answer...I like to learn new stuff!
Thanks much.

Hi,
I have studied a variety of online documents explaining built-in SQL Server 2005 encryption, and I'm a bit confused. Every encryption approach, it seems, ultimately replies upon a password that must be provided with queries to access the data. As an application developer, it brings up the obvious question: how should that password be provided? If I build the password into my applications, then it will no longer be secure. On the other hand, I can't possibly expect my users to provide a password every time they perform an action that requires unencrypting data. If I give that password out to 50 users, the password will become public information quickly, I am sure. We will also have to alter the password regularly. Plus several of my applications run as windows services, in which case the user (meaning the windows user under which the service runs) won't be around to type in password.
I have a better solution in mind. Is there an option to limit access to symmetric keys by windows identity? As a best-standards-abiding coder, all of my sql server access is done via Windows Authentication instead of SQL Server Authentication. Why not make it so that myorgjoe and myorgsally can access the symmetric key for a particular column, but nobody else? This way there is still a password involved, but it is now moved further up the application layers; it is the windows password that the user originally used to log into their machine to run the application.
Is there a way to make it so that access to symmetric keys (or asymmetric keys which encrypt symmetric keys) is decided solely on the basis of windows user identity?
Thank you for any thoughts!

Is it possible to install and configure the MSDTC resource in a SQL Server 2000 cluster after SQL is installed and running?
When I recently went through a rebuild of my cluster, I forgot to install the resource before installing SQL Server. Now, if I install and bring online the MSDTC resource the SQL disk groups will not fail over correctly. The SQL Server resource will not come online.
Thanks in advance for any help. I would really like to avoid rebuilding again.

It is clear to me that in order to be able to use certain SSIS components (for example the Excel jet provider) I must launch my packages using the 32bit DTEXEC located at Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90DTSBinn. However, when I do this it seems that there are other components of the package that no longer work as expected.
To test this I have created a simple package with two tasks (Run64BitRuntime is set to False):
1. Data flow task importing data from Excel
2. Execute SQL Task which does a simple select (select 1) from a Native OLE DB SQL data source (same SQL Server on which packages are stored). This task contains no input or output parameter.
When I try to execute the package using the 64bit DTEXEC, task 1 fails with the following error (as expected):
Code: 0xC0202009
Source: connection1 Connection manager "SourceConnectionExcel"
Description: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040154.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Service Components" Hresult: 0x80040154 Description: "Class not registered".
When I execute the package with the 32bit DTEXEC, task 2 fails with the following error
Code: 0xC002F210
Source: Execute SQL Task Execute SQL Task
Description: Executing the query "" failed with the following error: "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
Now here is the confusing part: When I change task 2 to use the .Net provider instead of the OLE DB the package works fine. According to the MS documentation, both of these providers are supported on 32 and 64 bit so am I missing something? One more thing to note: before I was able to use the 32 bit DTEXEC I had to re-register it as described in this KB article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/919224

This is probably not productive, but I've just encountered one strange problem after the other with Integration services, to the point that I'm afraid struggling any more with it is going to hurt my productivity.
It is now 2:00 . I've been trying to build a simple package since 10:00 AM
It really is a shame because it seems to have alot of promise.
I'm using execute SQL task to call stored procedures ins a sequence. I like to drag the boxes in such a way around so that the pakage is more readable. Crash! Work gone.
So I restart VS Develop. Try it again. I'm calling a stored procedure and the taks fails. Apparently has to do with truncating from a table linked by a foreign key. So I change the stored proc to handle the problem. Run it. runs fine. Go back to Inegration services. Run the corresponding task. Fails. Same message.Go back to stored procedure. Notice changes I mad diodn't get saved. Funny how did that happen?. I make the changes again. Run the procedure. Runs fine. Go back to IS run task. same message. What the??
I look at the strored procedure again. my changes are gone again. Light bulb goes on. Hey, Integration services has taking it upon itself to reverse all the changes I made to stored procedures it references. 2 hours gone.
And its still reversing my changes after a reboot. So I drop the package figuring its corrupt and start all over again, meticulously rearranging all the boxes to the way I had them before, keeping my fingers crossed all the while, that it really can't be that everythime I make a change to a stored procedure referenced by an execute SQL Task, I have to drop the package and build it again.
And I'm working under a tight deadline.
Just wanted to give you guys some insight into customer experience with the tool. I don't mean to sound irritable, buts its just I've run into 1 too many ropdadblocks with this thing and I am really missing DTS.

Been learning web dev for five months in c#.
The problem I have is that some weeks ago I moved my application to a new folder in my
hard drive. All seemed ok but now my connection strings to insert data no longer work and
throw exception saying...Object referance not set to an instance of an object.
I dug into the new folder and it has created a new sql server ( I think) in app .data
how do I connect to this new server and how do I find its connection strings.

Hi AllI am posting this in the hopes someone has come across the same issue and found a solution. The other day i uninstalled Microsoft ISA server 2000 from my SQL / Web server. Since then i have not been able to connect to the sql server via php. I changed the php config file and pointed it at another sql server i have up for development purposes that has a recent copy of the same db and everything works properly.The errors php is throwing at me show that it is not even able to find the server at all. I have changed it several times from both the netBios name as well as the actual ip and nothing seems to work.I should also note that other than the php access issue sql seems to be working perfectly for all other users in the office that are accessing it through the accounting system.System:Ms SQL 2000Windows Server 2003php 5 on IIS 6Any ideas?ThankspT

Hi folks,
Environment:
We change from SQL Server CE 2.0 to SQL Server CE 3.0, and we got our customer complaining about the performance lost in the process that makes 50 updates in the Pocket PC with windows mobile 5.0.
Our customer says that when they used the SQL Server CE 2.0 the process was quicker.
Process:
We need to do an update to 50 rows every time we lose the focus. Those 50 update are creating a deterioration of performance.
There is any Patch to add to SQL Server CE 3.0? There is any problem updating 50 times on a row losing performance?
Thanks in advance.

I know this sounds bizarre, but hey... this is DTS, right?
For ALL of my local packages on a particular server, when I open them with DTS designer on my workstation, everything is fine - I can even execute them. When I log onto the server locally, and open them, the workspace is empty!!!
They are stored as local packages. As I said, I can execute them within designer on my workstation, but if I try to run them via dtsrun, I get an error saying "No Steps have been defined for the transformation Package." And when I look at them on the server, that appears to be true.
One last thing (I know you've heard this before)... Everything was working fine last week - that darn Santa.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks,
Andy

I've run int o a perplexing problem. I have a SSRS setup on my local box. Everything has been working fine for weeks, up until now.
Recently, I had to change my password in our domain - which chouldn't be a big deal. But now when trying to connect to the report server, I get the following:
The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. The logon failed. (rsReportServerDatabaseLogonFailed) Get Online Help
Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007052E)
What's odd is the fact that I'm able to connect to the database just fine via Management Studio and run queries. I haven't changed ANY settings in SSRS or IIS. And everything is set up to use Windows Integrated authorization...
What gives?!?! Any insight would be appreciated!

My situation:
My boss gave me a server with server 2003 standard and Sql server 2005 and visual studio 2005 installed already, he asked me if i could figure out how the 'new' reporting services work, Im pretty new to SQL and the reporting service but i figured out i had to install asp.net / frameworks and IIS.
So right now i wanna start the Reporting Services Configuration Manager and i get an error that says 'Invalid namespace' and when im trying to approach by using my browser i get 'page not found' so obviously their is Alot wrong. I asked my boss if i could not reinstall everything and do it in the correct order (IIS / ASP.net / Frameworks before installing SQL server 2k5 but that was not an option because we dont seem to have the cd's anymore.
The server is not connected to any network or the internet.
My Question:
Is their any way to fix this? and if yes could anyone tell me where to start
Thanks in Advance!
ps if their is information or logs that u need in order to help me just say so :-)

I have a test server where I was experiencing security/rights anomalies. I tried disabling the BUILTINAdministrators account, closed SEM, and when I reopened it, I could not access my Server (all databases,etc.are on local machine). I thought I could just use the SQL accounts (sa, etc.) to connect, but they all fail?? I tried creating a new registration, and that didn't work either. Since I deleted the old registration, and I cannot reconnect, what are my options(short of restoring image)? If I re-install SQL will all my databases still be there? Is there another way to get access back?? Any help would be appreciated.

I updated my SQL Server 2005 db server with Windows 2003 SP2 and other windows updates and now other applications are loosing their connections to the SQL server after a period of inactivity.
The ERP software and MSSS Managment Studio loose their connections if the connection sits idle for a couple of hours. When in Management Studio I get the following error:
Msg 10054, Level 20, State 0, Line 0 A transport-level error has occurred when sending the request to the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.)....
Has anyone seen this? Do I need to add SP1 for MS SQL 2005?

Hi there,
I just upgraded from SQL2000 to 2005 and noticed that any DB engines you register do not get re-registerd when you restart the Management Studio, you have to reconnect every time you start Management Studio! SQL2000 used to keep your server connections.
Am i missing something or is this just how it works now!?
Thanks

More and more often, I am seeing this error message in RS subscriptions. I would assume it means the IIS server can't connect to the corporate exchange server. However I was wondering if there is some timeout setting/configuration in RS or the IIS server (or any other kind of setting) I can change to help alleviate this problem.
Has anyone else experienced this? Or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Jeff
UPDATE: After looking closer at the subscriptions, I have noticed that subscriptions set up by a RS Admin (who is also a server admin) seem to be working fine. It is the subscriptions that are set up by ordinary users that are failing...

Hi,
I am having following problem in our SQL Server 2000 database €“
Somehow/body accidentally backup (complete) our database back to an old back up from 17th March 2008. So the data from 17th March to 20th May is lost.
And that was the most recent backup that we had for the database because Maintenance Plan was not working from the last march due to some kind of failure and nobody knows about it. L
Using Redgate€™s Log Rescue and Apex Log Rescue tool but we could not find any entry from 17th March to 20th May. Most probably because of the complete back up.
Can any one help me out in this situation? Is there any way possible to retrieve the data? It€™s really important for me.
Thanks in advance. I will be looking forward to you guys reply.
