MSDE Installation Freezes

Feb 24, 2004

I am installtion MSDE on a Windows XP Pro. The install gets through to 5 seconds and freezes. THis sits for about an hour and nothing happens. The Microsoft SQL Server folder is created, but the services are not created. We tried to reinstall many times and removed the registry key before each reinstall (after uninstalling and rebooting). Any ideas about what could be wrong?

MSDE Installation Fails Due To Detection Of Previous Installation

Jul 23, 2005

Please help,I am trying to install MSDE 2000 so that Backup exec will run on thisserver. I have gotten so far as to find an entry in my SQLSTP.TXT filethat says that c:mssql7 was detected so the install fails.Now, to start with there is no directory called C:mssql7 on thisserver. I have gone through all MS articles on manual removal of SQLserver and instances. I have searched the registry for mssql7 andremoved any keys that matched, as per MS article I have searched onSQLBOOT.dll and it is not present anywhere on my system and I still getthe same results.2:07:44 Begin Action: Detection12:07:44 SQL Server version already installed: 7.00.62312:07:44 Previous Install SQL Path: C:MSSQL712:07:44 Previous Install SQL Data Path: C:MSSQL712:07:44 End Action Detection12:07:44 Begin Action: ODBCLocked12:07:44 End Action ODBCLocked12:07:44 GetDefinition returned: 112:07:44 Previous SQL Server ProductType: MSDE [0x4]12:07:44 This combination of Package and Operating System allows a fullproduct install.can anyone think of anything here..what else could be causing the server to think there is a previousversion of SQL 7 on this box!!!?

MSDE Installation Problem

Aug 6, 2004

Hi All
I am having a little trouble setting up MSDE.
I downloaded the most recent version of MSDE (sql2ksp3.exe) from the Microsoft site to my desktop.
I double clcked on the files to extract them, it created a sql2ksp3 dir on c drive.
I went to command prompt and entered the following in the c:/sql2ksp3/msde directory:
setup.exe DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=1 SAPWD=**REMOVED** then enter.
The setup wizard started then finished after about 30 seconds.
I can't find MSDE anywhere as program just a folder with the original setup programs.
I know this is a total gummy question, can anyone point me in the right direction.
I didn't have MSDE or SQL Server prevoiusly on the system.
Thanks in advance

MSDE Installation Crashes Pc

Jun 22, 2007

Hi Folks,

I've jumped over from the sister site xtremevbtalk.com to ask the question:

Has anyone ever seen an issue where when installing MSDE, during the installation the pc reboots of its own accord?

After the MDAC is installed as part of the installation the pc reboots and upon boot up, MSDE is not in the program files directory. Instead it's sitting in the C: root. This occurs for a straight MSDE install or with an Instancename install.

There does exist a Microsoft SQL Server folder in the Program Files but it is incomplete. It's missing the Binn folder. Also, there is no reference to MSDE in the Add/Remove programs tool but ther MSDE service does show up in the Services. However I cannot start these as they are pointing to the correct location.

To date, I have tried removing the instance and installation from the registry. I have turned off all AntiVirus software. I have ensured I am using an Admin user profile. I have tried a blank sa passowrd for the installation. all of this is to no avail.

I am seriously stuck with this now and I am in dire need of a resolution so if anybody has any ideas or has seen this one before, I love some help.

Thanks,
Gb :)

Problems With New MSDE Installation

Feb 2, 2004

Hi,
I've a problem with connecting to my local MSDE installation. I'm using Windows XP Pro SP1 and logged in as administrator.

I've installed MSDE without further options (=setup SAPWD="password"). After that I installed some examples from Microsofts '101 Visual Basic.NET applications' using 'setup SAPWD="password" INSTANCENAME="NetSDK"'. Now I have 2 services running, 'MSSQLServer' and 'MSSQL$NetSDK'.

Then I followed the examples from a german book and created a Dataset etc. to access data from the Northwind database. The following line is created as SQLConnection1:

Me.SqlConnection1.ConnectionString = "workstation id=""COMPUTERNAME"";packet size=4096;integrated security=SSPI;data source=" & _
"""(local)NetSDK"";persist security info=False;initial catalog=Northwind"
CType(Me.DataSet11, System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize).EndInit( )

When I right-click on the SQLDataAdapter1 and select 'Preview Data' everything works fine and I could see 9 Employee records. But when I then start the application it could not connect to the server. The error appears already in the first line, a simple connection call:
Me.SqlConnection1.Open()

Please could someone help me solve this issue? I already read several postings, here, on other sides, and on MSDN. I found information about a user account 'APSNET' which I am not allowed to implement due to security reasons. I also found the information about named pipes and TCP/IP, and so I added 'Network Library =dbmssocn' to the end of the SQLConnection-string, but with no success :-(

Many Thanks in advance for your support!

Desperatly Need Help With MSDE Installation And Config

May 13, 2005

Hi all, I know read all the posts already up on this subject... Hear me out.
Can anyone give an easy to understand, and I mean easy method for installing MSDE and configuring it so that I can connect to my server using Visual Studio.NET C#. I am having no end of troubles and I don't really understand why. I can log into osql using
osql -S BIGJ -E
that gets me to
1>
No problems so far
but when I try to connect using
SqlConnection("Server=BIGJ;DataBase=registeredUsers;Integrated Security=SSPI");
I am having no luck and I don't really understand why
Here is the stack trace
[SqlException: Login failed for user 'BIGJASPNET'.]   System.Data.SqlClient.ConnectionPool.GetConnection(Boolean& isInTransaction)   System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionPoolManager.GetPooledConnection(SqlConnectionString options, Boolean& isInTransaction)   System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.Open()   ADOAccess.WebForm1.Button1_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) in c:inetpubwwwrootadoaccesswebform1.aspx.cs:52   System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.OnClick(EventArgs e)   System.Web.UI.WebControls.Button.System.Web.UI.IPostBackEventHandler.RaisePostBackEvent(String eventArgument)   System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(IPostBackEventHandler sourceControl, String eventArgument)   System.Web.UI.Page.RaisePostBackEvent(NameValueCollection postData)   System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain()
I think I am not understanding the fundamentals of SQL server or something so if anyone can help or point me to a good tutorial that will help me not only solve my problem but also understand what is going onas well.
Thanks everyone

Whole DB Freezes!

Feb 27, 2001

Ok,

My SQL Server production DB freezes for 20 minute periods about 3 times a day, during
this time no-one can do anything. I checked the perf. monitor counters (all
the ones there at default), the scary part is that they ALL fall to 0 during
the freeze, then rise to normal. Yes, that's zero %!

I checked the ID's connecting, there are no common ones that connect just
before a freeze, and there are no hardware issues. It's only a 400Mb DB,
with a trans log of 120Mb. Between 200-400 users are connected during
business hours, both from the LAN and off. Some users are running some
fairly heavy reports, but there's no correlation between these and the
freezes. The biggest table only has 1.5 million rows, and the average query
time is 232 milliseconds.

This whole mess has been going on since the 15th of Jan, we searched high
and low for any alterations made, but the client swears blind that no
changes were made. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance all,


Jaishel.

The DB Freezes For 5 Or 10 Minutes

Oct 9, 2007

Hi,
the SQL DB freezes and no one can access the DB for 5 or 10 minutes. Even select queries don t execute, nothing is displayed.

Until we kill the process id that s blocking in the sql activity monitor, only then the DB is released and people can work again.
What does it mean that no query executes until we kill the processes ID? what could it be?

Also, recently we created indexes and ran tuning adviser, is it possible that the creation of indexes cause the freeze of a DB? is that possible?

Thanks a lot for your help

DTS Execute SQL Task Freezes

Nov 15, 2004

Hi all !

Hi have a package with 3 steps :
1 - import data from flat file into a temp table
2 - copy selected data from the temp table to permanent tables
3 - truncate temp table

The task #2 is a SQL statement

INSERT INTO MODELS (MODEL_ID)
SELECT DISTINCT MATNR
FROM STANDARD
WHERE MATNR NOT IN (SELECT MODEL_ID FROM MODELS)

where STANDARD is the temp table and MODELS a permanent one. My problem is this simple task freezes all the time. It stalls on 'Starting' and stays in this state forever when I execute the package.

Any idea why ?

Server Freezes While Doing Checkpoint ?!

Jul 24, 2007

We're running the Microsoft product SMS 2003 SP1 for software deployment, patching, hardware inventory, etc. The back-end is SQL 2000 Enterprise SP4 which is installed on the same box as the SMS 2003 SP1 product, and the DB is 145GB's.

We started noticing that the server would freeze every minute or so for 30 seconds. We started logging stats via perfmon and saw that the average disk queue length for the physical drive of F: would skyrocket between 400 - 500 for 30 seconds at the same time the freezing occurred. I have determined that this is occurring during the checkpoint. The recovery interval option is set to the default of 0 on SQL, when I changed the setting to every 5 minutes, the average disk queue length for the physical drive of F: would skyrocket between 400 - 500 every 5 minutes and would subside after 2 minutes. I understand the need for the checkpoint / recovery interval option, but don't believe this high average disk queue length should be occurring.

Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix this ? The freezing of the box while checkpointing is killing me.

Thanks

DB Freezes When Replication Agent Cant Deliver

Hi

We are repeatedly having the trouble of our publisher database becoming unresponsive during network problems.
We have publisher in carribean, distribution agent in canada and subscribers all over. The problem comes when publisher cant deliver to distributor due to network outages.

We are planning on moving the distributor to the carribean ultimately but that will take a while, and our application repeatedly needs to be restarted due to these freezes.

Does anyone know of this problem & possible ways to fix it in the short term (short of changing our replication topology).

SQL Backup Hangs, Server Freezes

Feb 28, 2007

We have SQL 2000 running on Server 2003. The server has 4 GB RAM, RAID 1 and has the /3GB switch in Boot.ini. We have 6 databases, the largest is about 14 GB. Until recently I could use Enterprise Manager to perform database backups to a folder on the same server but now the operation fails. After selecting the location for the backup and clicking OK, the hard drive light comes on but goes out after 15 - 30 seconds. The progress bar does not move. I've waited and waited but nothing further happens and the server doesn't respond. The only solution is to push the power button and let the server re-boot. Very occasionally the backup will run for a minute or two and the progress bar might get to about one third of the way across, (in which case the destination file will show up with more than 0 bytes), but it never completes. I can find nothing in the event log relating to this problem. As far as I am aware, nothing has changed since the last successful backup. Backups to tape using Retrospect appear to work fine but I haven't done a test restore. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can try to get the backups working again?

Slowly Changing Dimension Freezes

Apr 9, 2008

I am trying to move data from a transactional database to a data warehouse using a slowly changing dimension. The transactional data comes from a view in SQL server that takes <60 seconds to run and returns about 60k rows. The warehouse table is currently 80k rows long (and growing), and contains 7 historical (type 2) dimensions. When I execute the package in BIDS the DataFlow Task begins to execute, and shows that between 20k and 30k rows have been pulled from the data source into the SCD Transform in the first hour before it simply stops doing anything. This is not to say execution stops; it continues. There is no error thrown. No warning given. System resources are 98% free. The database is not being hit at all. And yet, I have let the package sit 'still' as it were for over 8 hours, and nothing ever happens.

Here is a copy of one log:

Notice the time difference between the last OnPipelineRowsSent event and the first OnError event (when I clicked the stop button): 5 hours! In all that time, SSIS did not log a single event, or use more than 2% of my processor or exceed 1GB page file or hit the database even once! I am assuming this means it is simply not doing anything. It is not failing, nor is it executing, it is just sitting there.

Has anyone experienced a similar problem? Does anyone know how I might troubleshoot this? Thanks in advance for any help, and let me know if I need to clarify. Also, I am new to SSIS, so if I am missing something obvious, go easy on me! Thanks.
