Ok, a while back, probably a year or so I started moving to MSDE. At the time a read posts on the Web that said you could use the client tools from the SQL Server Eval to manage MSDE. Great! I thought.
But more recently I get the impression that using those tools in not allowed. Can someone give me a diffinative answer.
I really want to stick with MSDE and am having a hard time convincing the boss to shell out $9,000+ for SQL Server on my dual processor web server. But I need DTS, Job Scheduling, etc...
Now my boss has wind of MySQL and knows that it's CHEAP.
If I can legally use the client tools with MSDE than I'm fine, if not I dread going to MySQL.
I have the SQL 6.5 client tools installed on my machine, I also have MSDE installed. However the client tools do not see the MSDE. I keep getting the error message that I have attached to this message as a gif. Anybody have any ideas it would be appreciated.
Hi there, When I try and install the client tools on my SQLServer 2005 SP2 installation I get the following message:
Failed to install and configure assemblies C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90NotificationServices9.0.242Binmicrosoft.sqlserver.notificationservices.dll in the COM+ catalog. Error: -2146233087 Error message: Unknown error 0x80131501 Error description: The Transaction Manager is not available. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8004D01
I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the Client Tools, but I keep on getting the same message.
I have many sql 2000 DTS packages that I support from my development workstation running v2000 sp4. Packages are altered on the development machine and then go through a normal release mechanisms to production via testing servers etc.
I have recently installed the client tools for SQL Server 2005 on my desktop to evaluate the product. The 2005 DB instance is running on a seperate server.
So, I have dev edition of sql 2000 and 2005 client tools (including BI Dev studio etc) on my workstation.
I have recently had to make changes to a 2000 DTS package and used my 2000 enterprise manager to do so. No Problem- saved and tested fine on my workstation.
But when I try and release it to another server, or open the package using enterprise manager from another machine that does not have sql 2005 installed - I get an error message 'Unspecified error'. This I've seen before when trying to open packages created in v2000 , using v7 or where the service packs are different between machines.
Digging around my workstation and comparing some of the DLLs I know to be required to distribute DTS packages (from RDIST.txt) it seems that some of the SQL 2000 dll files have been updated by my 2005 installation.
E.g
DTSFFILE.DLL on my machine is 2000.85.1054.0 whilst on any 'clean' 2000 machine is at version v2000.80.760.0
Surely it cant be right that SQL 2005 has newer versions of components for SQL 2000 than is available with the latest SP for the actual product! Especially considering that the installation of 2005 does not even allow you to edit 2000 DTS packages through the management studio without a 'special' download' of the feature pack,(whihc by the way does not work very well either)
So am I to conclude that you can not run side by side installations of SQL 2000 and 2005 on a single machine and expect 2000 to run as it did previously !!!
Hello,Is it necessary to upgrade the Client Connectivity Tools on all clientmachines after the SQL Server database server is upgraded from Version7.0 to 2000?Thank you in advance!Eddy
I planning some web app that I would like to use MSDE to power. I admit I am intimidated by the thought of creating databases with no GUI. So my question is can I use SQL server 2000 tools with MSDE or can I create databases with SQL server 2000 then deploy them to a machine running MSDE? Thanks
I have a DTS Package created with SQL2000 client tools, which contains a SQL connection and a sql task (exec sp_who2). When I run the package on my PC it works, when I run the package via SQL Agent it comes back with :-
DTSRun: Loading... Error: -2147287038 (80030002); Provider Error: 0 (0) Error string: The system cannot find the file specified. Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package Help file: sqldts.hlp Help context: 713. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.
I am not using any files. The DTS Package is called PMC_Test
Here is the dtsrun syntax from the SQL Agent job.
DTSRun /S "APP003" /N "PMC_Test" /E
When I try and open the DTS package using SQL7 client tools I get the same error message.
I have installed SQL 2005 on a new machine and cannot find any of theclient tools I am used to having: query analyzer, enterprise mgr.,profiler. Shouldn't they be included in a default installation if Ichose to install client tools? Where do I go to find them?*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

How should I reinstall client Tools? Might be to merge original SS2005 DVD with downloaded SP2?
I have installed the SQL 2005 Client tools in anticipation of our servers been upgraded to SQL 2005 soon. I would like to create a local instance of SQL 2005 i.e. Express so I can try out functionality while I wait for the servers to be upgraded.
Is this possible or is now installing Express going to mess up some of the currently installed tools?
In Server Explorer of VS .NET 2003, I tried to generate SQL script of the dbo.Portal (ibs) but got "To use this feature, you must install the client tols for SQL Server"
When I searched for Help, I've got "1.Insert the MS SQL Server 2000 compact disc in your CD-ROM drive"
I installed and use MSDE and cannot recall the use of any CD for installation.
1) Does it mean that I cannot install client tools from MSDE installation?
If not...
2) I have installation of MS SQL Server200 Enterprise that cannot be installed on Windows Xp Professional that I use. Can I still install "client tools" from Enterprise Ed. for MSDE
I`m planning on installing sql7 beta on my desktop. Currently I have sql6.5 client tools installed on my desktop for performing DBA tasks against our test and prod. sql6.5 servers. Does anyone know if installing sql7 will conflict with my sql6.5 client tools or cause any other problems?
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2000 client tools on an XP workstation.MSDE already exists on the workstation. During the install I am neverprompted for a location to install to. I want to install to my D drive. Theinstall defaults to my C drive.Any thoughts?
Hi,I'm looking for stand alone installation for SQL server Client tools,or the files required for creating such an installation. I would liketo include this installation as part of the setup for my ownSQL-dependant app. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
According to MS Knowledge Base Article 269824, "[SQL Server 2000 ClientTools] ... must be installed ... on any computer on which someone may makedesign changes in an Access project to a SQL Server 2000 database".This is the situation I'm facing. Can I download these Client Tools andinstall them for free, or are they only available on the SQL Server 2000Installation CD?Thanks for any help!
The option is on the column shortcut menu in the power pivot window. When I select it, the column is hidden. I've looked in the help file to see what else this option is suppose to do, but couldn't find anything. I searched this forum, but didn't see anything that the option does, except hide/unhide a column.
I have tried several times to install SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition on a cluster. SQL Server, SQL browser and SQL Agent installs ok but when the installer start to setup Books on line and client tools (BIDS) and SS Management Studio the installer stops and end the installation.

I have an application that needs to execute dtsrun from a remotemachine. Basically I have a batch file on the remote box, whichhandles the execute. This works fine on a machine with client toolsinstalled. My problem is that I can't install the client tools on theremote box.Does anyone know what I need to install on the remote machine to getthis to execute, without installing the client tools? I've triedcopying dtsrun.exe and dtsrun.rll, but that didn't work

When the install fails, this is the event signature:
Does Service Pack 2 affect client tools? In other words, if you have a client machine with just the tools installed (management studio, BIDS, etc) do I need to run the SP2 package on this client as well?
