I want to migrate my Access XP database to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The Start Menu does not display any migration assistant in SQL Server 2005 Express menu list.
How to migrate it?
Hi there
I am new to SQL Server, but the current project that I am working on has the following requirement:-
1) Migrate the application (a servlet based web application on Apache Tomcat) from Solaris to Wintel
2) Migrate the supporting database from SQL Server 2000 to Sql Server 2005
3) Get IIS to communicate with Tomcat for serving servlet/jsp etc to the client
Though I successfully completed item 1 above, am stuck at item 2. Details are below
Actions taken for item 2
A. Installed MS 2005
B. Created new database in MS 2005 (logged in as user 'sa')
C. Generated SQL scripts (such as create table table_A etc) from existing MS 2000
D. Genearted SQL scripts (such as insert into table_A etc) from existing MS 2000
E. Created new schema in MS 2005
F. Ran scripts C & D in the new schema. All tables are records populated.
G. Obtained new JDBC driver and test run to see if connection is working fine, and it worked. Even ran an sql statment
Code Block[select count(*) from sa.table_A]
and got appropriate response.
H. When I made the application to talk to this new database (which is a copy of Production from step C, D above), it's behaving as though it cannot find the record.
I. When I further debugged, I realised that the web application is excuting queries without mentioning the schema. For eg.
Code Block[Select firstName, lastName from table_A]
Or rather it assumes that the user connecting to database is same as the schema name.
J. To further ascertain my point, I ran the query
Code Block[Select firstName, lastName from sa.table_A]
and it worked!
Now the real problem is that I cannot modify the existing code to append a schema name and this approach is rather not recommended best practise.
I tried to match the user name with the schema name, even made this schema as default to the user. But still not finding any luck.
I request all you experts out there to help me out with this problem.

so as you can see i want to migrate from My SQL 5.0 to MS SQL Express. Is there any free tool provided by microsoft or something else i could to use to migrate my databases. I need this cause old web page was developed on PHP and now it's redeveloped on ASP.NET and i have very strange issues with ASP.NET and MySQL Lots of incompatibility and performace degradation, so i would like to try out MS SQL i think it must be better.
please guys help me out.
I have a medical records system, SoapWare v4.90, that uses MSDE (SQL2000) databases. Due to the 2gb limitation, I am trying to migrate over to SQL 2005 (Standard or Express) which I have heard works fine. The SoapWare has a datamanager that allows me to log in to the MSDE instance, detach the SoapWare databases from msde (as well as do backups, etc) which I can confirm are detached.
Then I log back into a SQL2005 database instance using the datamanager and try to attach the database. This is what their pictured instructions demonstrate. However, I get the following error:
Database 'sw_charts' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
Of course, some of the entries will be read only, since doctors have to sign off the charts and are not allowed to subsequently change them. But I should still be able to switch over to sql 2005?!?!?!?
Or... is there a way to attach the databases to SQLExpress manually?
Help pls?
Hi,
I'm trying to learn some VB programming with the VB 2005 Express Absolute Beginner Series video tutorials (which I think is great) and have come across a problem that I can't solve.
When I follow the instructions in Lesson 9 (Databinding Data to User Interface Controls) my application will display the data from the database correctly and I can edit it (and as long as the debugger is running the data remains changed). However, the changes won't propagate back to the database. I don't get any error messages but after I edit the data, save (with the save button on the BindingNavigator toolbar), and end debugging the data in my database remains unchanged. When I use a MessageBox to show how many rows where edited/updated in the
Me.myTableTableAdapter.Update(Me.myDatabaseDataSet.myTable)
I get the correct number back. I'm sure the problem is not due to coding errors since I've also tried running the accompanying Lesson 9 project file that can be downloaded from MSDN and the problem persists.
I'm using Windows XP SP2, SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and VB 2005 Express Edition. I've tried installing SQL Server 2005 Express with a number of different settings, including default settings, but it doesn't make any difference.
Would greatly appreciate any feedback on this as I'm keen to resolve this problem so I can get on with the next tutorial lesson.
Thanks,
Ieyasu
Hi,
Recently we have migrated our application from MSDE 2000 to SQL Server Express 2005(SP 1). This has significantly reduced the performance of our Windows.NET application which is developed using C#.
For example : While logging in to the application two databases are being attached.
Time taken in MSDE: 16 secs
Time taken in SQL Server Express 2005 : 58 secs
Also note performance is degraded for normal screens where data is retrived from database using inline queries.
Questions:
1) Is there any special(optimum) configuration(installation parameters) while installing the SQL Server Express 2005 setup?
2) Is there any query optimization to be done w.r.t SQL Server Express 2005 ?
We highly appreciate any help towards resolving the above problem.

Hi,
I want to move my sql express DB to a sql 2005 server located at a service provider. I can detach or back, but I am limited on attaching or restoring the DB because the servers are on two limted/seperated networks.
Is scripting an idea? I have SQL manager 2005 running.

Hi all,
In the last one and half years, I used the Northwind Database in SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to learn the programming of SqlConnections, Data sources, Database Exploere, ADO.NET 2.0, etc. via VB 2005 Express.
The Northwind Database in my SSMSE got lost very often, but I was not aware of it. How can I know where the Northwind Database is used or processed by my VB 2005 Express projects that were the examples of some tutorial books or my trial projects? How can I release the Northwind Database back to my SSMSE from the VB 2005 Express projects? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

Hi there
I heard from someone that there is a tool that can verify/check whether the database can be deported to SQL Server 2005 native (90) or not. Is this true?

Hi,
Currently we have SQL server 2000 database for past 3 to 4 years. Now planning to move SQL Server 2005. The SQL 2000 database will be restored to 2005 server.
My questions are,
1. The SQL 2000 queries, Stored proc and views will work with SQL server 2005 without any changes?
2. Do the SQL server 2005 have backward compatability with SQL Server 2000 or we need to convert any specific SQL script after converting to 2005.
3. Is there any issues after conversion?
Please help me in this area.
Thanks in Advance!
Thanks,

I'm trying to get a database from SQL2005 to SQL2000. I already recreated the database in SQL2005 and I'm just trying to get some data from just a few tables.
It doesn't appear the DTS or any export functionality is available in my version of SQL Express 2005...so how do I do this. I've tried installing everything I can find.
I've also tried BCP but I keep getting these errors:
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53].
SQLState = HYT00, NativeError = 0
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
This is a LOCAL database and I have tried -T for trusted, I have also tried a username and password combination. The database is set to Allow Remote connections. Nothing is working.
I recently added a new user to my database. Now I want to delete that user, but I keep getting the error above. What do I need to do to delete my recently added user?

What are the steps required to migrate or upgrade data or database from a sql server 2005 express database to main sql server 2005 database?

I've used Sql Server 2000 and Visual Studio 2003 for a few years. I've started a new position and they have access to Sql Server 2005 Standard and Visual Basic 2005 Express which I'd like to use for a new project. So I installed Sql Server 2005 and then VB 2005 Express on my workstation. I didn't choose the Sql Server option for VB Express because I already had Sql Server 2005 Standard installed with a simple database created. I created a simple vb project that justs connects to the database but I get the following error.
Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0000, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.
I looked at permissions in the database and it looks ok. I'm the db owner and I'm using Windows Auth. My connection string is
"Data Source=MySystem;initial catalog=AdventureWorks;integrated security=true;"
I thought I'd look at the starter kit to get some ideas about what the problem is, but when I started the movie starter kit project, it was upset that I didn't have Sql Server 2005 EXPRESS installed. Yea, but I do have Sql Server 2005 Standard installed.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
When I installed VS 2005, it installed the default version of SQL Server 2005 Express that ships with Visual Studio 2005 installer media.
How can apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 to update this existing instance?
Currently, if I run this query:
SELECT @@version
I get the following:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)
After applying SP1, I should get 9.00.2047.00.
Should I just go to this link and download & install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/

I am in the process of migrating from [Source] SQL Server 7.0 sp4 on windows NT to [Target] SQL Server 2005 on Windows 2003 Server.
Please suggest me what should be the migration approach it this case.
Would De-attach and attach of DB still be valid if OS changes? (both are 32 bit OS).

Has anyone had experience of migrating from 2000 to 2005 on the same box , and maintaining the SERVERNAMEINSTANCE_NAME.
What are some effective ways of migrating and retaining the same servername/instance name ?
The issue revolves around minimising the use of extra boxes , as I would like to do the migration on the same server and keep the name the same .

Hi,
We are migrating from SQL Server 2000 to 2005. We currently use ADO.Net to make connection to sql server. I just want to know after migration to sql server 2005 do we have to make any changes in code in the way we make connection to use ADO.Net2 which is part of sql server 2005. ??
Thanks

I am migrating a database from Oracle to SQL Server 2005. I have a problem when migrating code from PL-SQL (oracle labguage) to T-SQL (sql server language). My problem is: there is pseudo-column in oracle called level that return the level from a register in a tree view of a select (a parent-child relationship). I would want to know how to translate that level column to T-SQL. Thanks!
View 3 Replies View RelatedI created a web site using the "personal web site" starter kit with Visual Studio 2005. It created an ASPNET MDF file as well as a Personal.MDF in my App_Data directory.
I want to migrate this site to a production server that does not have SQL Express, but does have a full version of SQL Server 2005.
How do I migrate both the database format (tables and SPs) as well as the data to the SQL Server?
I can't find anything that looks like Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer on my system, and installing the "native client tools" doesn't do anything except install configuration utilities (no clients).
Inside of Visual Studio 2005, I can bring up both databases (one from the MDF file(s) and one using a connection string to the server), but there doesn't appear to be any way to copy from one to the other.
There must be an easy way to do this, right?
Many thanks in advance!

I am migrating MS SQL Server 6.5 databases to a new server and wanted to create the data & log devices differently than they are on the old box. My dbcc checks are giving me 2558 errors because my devices weren't built the same size in the same order. I thought if I didn't copy the master, I didn't have to rebuild the database exactly the same. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to rebuild different device sizes and do a successful restore ? Thanks in advance !
