I was expecting a warning but I turned on my computer and discovered that MSSQL Server 2000 eval. has expired. At this time, and in the foreseeable future, I cannot afford a retail version. But I would like to upgrade to MSSQL Server 2005 Express.
Have I lost all my data? What can I do?
We had a evaluation copy of SQL 6.5 loaded on a server. The eval has expired and I need the
server back. We have plenty of SQLServer fully licensed versions available. How
do I upgrade this without losing my existing server.
Several months ago I installed what I thought was an unlimited license of MSSQL Database Server 2000. This weekend the database expired. What can I do? I don't want to lose the data. If I attempt to reinstall the software, will that work? We are in the process in purchasing the software but not for a few months. The database is used to store and retrieve data in our OutStart server. Any idea is helpful.

Should i just pop in a MVL mssql2005 cd and perform an in place
upgrade? Or completely remove the eval version and install clean?
Will i have to redo any SQL users i have added on this server?

I just started a new job and one of my first assignments was to determine and prove the improvement between SQL Server 2000 32 bit and SQL Server 2005 64bit extension. (Itanium may come later but for now we will live with x64)
I have used SQL 2005 before but only with a fresh install and a new application built from the ground up. Now we want to upgrade our present databases to 2k5. In a previous test by another DBA, he found the SQL 2005 ran slower. However, he realized that he was using SQL 2005 32bit on Windows 2003 64bit. Now we have everything in place, here are the steps I have accomplished so far.
Loaded Windows 2003 64 and SQL 2005 64.
Made a copy of an existing database from a SQL 2000 32 bit
Attached this database to the new SQL 2005 server. However, I keep the compatibility at 8.0.
Updated the statistics and backed the db up.
Had another DBA run a Profiler trace on the production server.
Replayed the trace on the new server.
My problem is this doesn€™t seem to give the information I am looking for. First, we were only looking at queries over 5 minutes and only looking at things from a duration standpoint. We are going to change this. Second, even though I created a template that looks like the one used on the production server, it is not using it.
So how do I compare performance on this 64bit server verses the 32bit SQL 2000. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Hello,I have one application which is having written in asp.net & plain asp.I am having one button on asp page,when i will click on that button, then itwill execute one other asp page.And after the execution of that second asp page, I redirect it to someASPX page with some values.On the ASPX page, it will connect to the Database, and insert the values.Thus, sometime, the following error is occuring :"Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding."Main thing is that i am testing it on my local machine, then also it is giving me this error ...Insert into statement is also not much complicated :just I inserted three values in one table.Is this occuring due to the mixer of asp & aspx??Plz give me some proper solution.I want it in efficient manner, because this application will be accessed by number of users at the same time.Plz help me.Thanks,Sandy
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi All,
I've had a DTS Package scheduled to run every morning since June last year, however on Monday and again this morning, the DTS package has failed on two of its steps. This DTS package runs on SQL Server 2000 and the server is a Windows 2000 Server.
Basically, the DTS Package steps that fail are populating a "cache" table from a "live" table and then performing Inserts / Updates on the "live" table from a CSV file depending upon whether data exists in the "cache" table and whether the CSV file contains an "Insert" or "Update" flag. The live table has just over 800,000 rows of data and our nightly CSV extract, containing both inserts and updates, has about 6000 rows.
The error / failure has only happened in the last two days and I'm not too sure if there's any "timeout" feature in DTS and if there is, how I can modify it, or whether this may be something to do with long transactions or temp dbspace running out.
The time that the DTS package runs was modified last week to run two hours earlier (03:00 instead of 05:00) and has ran okay for a few days. I don't know whether this change is a red herring, as I have checked other DTS packages on the machine and none appear to run at the same time.
Here's the message from the third step in the DTS Package (second one that's failing).

Hi,
I am a bit new to the MSSQL server. In our application, we use so many SQL queries. To imporve the performance, we used the Database enigine Tuning tool to create the indexes. The older version of the application supports MSSQL 2000 also. To re-create these new indexes, I have an issue in running these "CREATE INDEX" commands as the statements generated for index creation are done in MSSQL 2005. The statements include "INCLUDES" keyword which is supported in MSSQL 2005 but not in MSSQL 2000.
Ex:-
CREATE INDEX IND_001_PPM_PA ON PPM_PROCESS_ACTIVITY
(ACTIVITY_NAME ASC, PROCESS_NAME ASC, START_TIME ASC, ISMONITORED ASC)
INCLUDE
(INSTANCE_ID, ACTIVITY_TYPE, STATUS, END_TIME, ORGANIZATION);
Any help in creating such indexes in 2000 version is welcome.
Thanks,
Suresh.

I've been tasked to move our production databases on MSSQL 2000 to 2005. I've supported MSSQL since version 6.5 and performed migrations to successor versions.
Current Environment is MSSQL 2000 32-bit with current Service Packs.
I've performed mock migrations on Test servers upgrading all Production instances simultaneously from MSSQL 2000 to 2005 32-bit. The Test environment is identical to Production minus server name, IP etc. Also I have a separate server with MSSQL 2005 installed where I use the DETACH / ATTACH and BACKUP / RESTORE method for migration / acceptance testing. There are approximately 30 databases totaling 70 GB. This has gone as expected and fairly successful. Vendors have been coordinated with to update code and staff for acceptance testing.
I'd prefer going directly to MSSQL 2005 64-bit instead if possible due to memory benefits etc. This is where I'd like some feedback prior to borrowing a 64-bit server for testing.
Upgrade options:
1. Is it better to migrate from MSSQL 2000 32-bit to 2005 64-bit via:
a. DETACH / ATTACH
b. BACKUP / RESTORE
c. Is one method more advantageous relating to the end result?
2. Regarding XP clients, have issues been experienced with the default SQL Server driver or is an alternate recommended for XP clients to connect to a MSSQL 64-bit server databases?
3. If you have performed this migration and have relevant experience please pass them along.
Hi I'm an experienced programmer, but just don't have much experience with ASP or MSSQL. I inherited a website and now need to set up an automated backup system for a fairly large (40MB) MSSQL database hosted by a 3rd party provider of reasonable quality with ASP and SQL Server 2000. Let's avoid ASP.NET solutions since the website I inherited is written in "straight up" ASP (old school).
I have access to the database, login etc. I'm thinking I should combine an ASP script with the database connectivity and write daily/weekly backups to a dir on the hosting server.
Where do I begin? Tools? Examples?
Thanks for any assistance.

Hi Friends,
I am doing my final semester project. It is a migration tool that converts the DB2 PL dialect into MSSQL Server's T-SQL dialect.
I am in need of sample DB2 PL files(procedures, UDFs, triggers) for testing the tool. Please point out me to some DB2 files repository links or if you have some files, please give me the same. I will use this only for testing purposes.
Appreciate your help.

Hello,
I've got a weird problem that started today on our SQL server at work. Apparently the transaction logs filled up for one DB, and SQL server decided to create 230 gb of errors on the subject, filling my D: drive. Well, I had no problem deleting the error logs and truncating the transaction logs, but my Enterprise Manager MMC will no longer function.
Search results turned up a fix that worked for most people, but not for me. So I'm pretty sure I've got no choice but to reinstall over-the-top. But, will this cause any loss of existing databases (obviously back them up first), users/security, and scheduled tasks (db backups, etc)?
I'd like to do minimal damage to this thing because there are several DB's set up from before my time, and I don't have time to manage this thing completely (as you might have guessed, no one really manages things here). Any help is appreciated.

Hello,
I am developing an application which needs JDBC connection to a Named Instance of SQL Server 2000 (other than default instance). I am facing problem in this regard as my code gives an exception "Time Out" or "Connection Failed". However it works fine with the default named instance...The main driver class is "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver"
and Connection URL is
"jdbc: sqlserver://localhost;instanceName=Testing:1432;databaseName=testDB;"
It gives the exception that Unable to connect to named instance....
Please if any one have any knowledge in this regard....do let me know....I have read an article on MSDN according to which on MS SQL Server 2000 the named Instance other than default can be accessed only through named pipes.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa224779(sql.80).aspx
if some body can tell me Connection string for JDBC driver which utilizes named pipes...the it will be very help full for me.........any help from MSDN Experts is really appreciated...
Thanks

tblPercent.
I am getting an error message for the following query.
Have Two tables

where CriticalDoctors.Doctor = (select DoctorId from tblPercent)
Server: Msg 512, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <=

The statement has been terminated.
Pls give me reply on how to write a stored procedure so that I can equate the percentage column

Thanking you guys in advance.

If I use a third database manager I get the following error: 'Execute permission denied on object xp_ServiceControl database' Please let me know what is causing this and how to fix it. The script goes as below
