Hi,
I am trying to install a new SQL Server 2005 instance. When running the
setup I get a warning related to "Edition Change Check" that advises
me to run setup with SKUUPGRADE=1. I already have SQL 2005 with SP 1 installed.
For the new instance that I am trying to install I use the SQL Server 2005
media without sp1. What do I do? Ignore the warning and at the end reapply SP1?
Thanks
The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server.
There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'.
I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
However, I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but this doesn't work either.
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated
Thanks...
Hi All,
I have two drive, C and D. When first time I installed SQL Server 2005, I think that I point to C drive which is having only 10 GB, instead of drive D which has bigger space. Now, I have a problem of restoring my database due to lack of space on my C drive. Can anyone guide me to change the instance of database from drive C to drive D.
TIA
I have access to a server with sql server 2005 workgroup edition. It runs an instance of sql server for this huge application we use. I would like to create a new instance of Sql server 2005 so I can play around with it and learn how to use the 2005 version. How can you create a new instance? I want this instance to run alongside the current instance. I can't find out how to do this anywhere. I'm sure it's possible though. Thanks

Hi
I just need some information on creating the second instance in sql server 2005. In my production server we have the databases with different collation. we need to separate those two different collation databases by creating the new instance. I have to create the instance by this afternoon. I think we need to install the sql server 2005 again and select the option of named instace. As long as this is production server are databases are going to be available for the users while installing the sql server to create the different instance? Could some one please respond on this. Thanks!
I need to rebuild master on an instance of SQL 2005. The instance was installed incorrectly and would like to rebuild the instance with the proper collation. I know the command to rebuild (below), but I'm not sure what to put in for the collation. The collation needs to be:
Dictionary order, case-insensitive, uppercase preference for use with the 1252 Character set
Here is the command: setup.exe /qn INSTANCENAME=QNXT REINSTALL=SQL_Engine REBUILDDATABASE=1 SAPWD=******* SQLCOLLATION=<NewSystemCollation>
What do i place in the <NewSystemCollation> in order to get the collation above installed?

I'm new to SQL Server, and have just started to work through the MS Press ADO.Net 2.0 Step-by-Step book.
In the beginning of the book, at the point where the Add Connection box comes up, it says to type in the Server Name text box, (local)SQLEXPRESS, as the book takes for granted you have SQL Express installed, and hence this is the instance name.
I have Visual Studio 2005 Professional, and SQL Server 2005 Standard installed. What would the instance of SQL Server be in this case?
Any hope would be greatly appreciated.
I can't get an instance of SQL Server 2005 to start using TCP/IP.
The issue is pretty basic: I have a local SQL Server 2005 that I can get to run and connect to it using Named Pipes.
The problem is that from a remote machine, although I can connect to it using Named Pipes, ASP.NET can't connect to it (when I'm in design mode, I can connect to the SQL server to configure Data Sources, but at run-time, it refuses to work).
So, I tried to switch to TCP/IP. I can't get it to work on the local machine. I get the following errors:
SQL Server could not spawn FRunCM thread. Check the SQL Server error log and the Windows event logs for information about possible related problems.
TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0xd, status code 0x1.
I've looked up these errors, and most of them are basic "make sure protocols are enabled, make sure VIA is disabled, etc." but those aren't it.
Any ideas?
TIA

Hi,
I have installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition on my system. The default instance name is set as SQLEXPRESS. I want to change this to something else. Is there anyway I can do that?
Thanks,
pravi
I have installed SQL Server 2005 on two boxes and installed client tools only on my local machine.
I cannot connect to either machine.
I also have the "Error 26 problem - does not allow remote connection etc."
Of my two remote servers, one is virtual the other is not.
I cannot establish a connection through the "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio" tool on my local machine using:
Severname: ServerNameInstanceName
Authentication: Either Windows or SQL Server
Eveything is enabled (TCPIP, Name Pipes), no firewall
SqlBrowser is running
I have SQL Server 2000 also installed on the same server machines and I am able to connect to this.
I tried using IP addresses and port numbers as follows (NB ServerName implies alias or ip address) and portnumbers I have tried are 1433 and 1766:
ServerName,portnumber
ServerNameInstanceName,portnumber
It either connects to the 2000 or gets the error 26 problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I have an interesting situation here. I have a SQL Server 2000 database which is attached to SQL Server 2005. The database (SQL 2000) however only has service pack 3 applied. I need to apply SP4 before I can move forward with SQL 2000->2005 upgrade. The question: can I somehow apply this support package with my current configuration or should I install full SQL 2000 front-end anew (which I don't have at the moment)? Whenever I try to run SQL 2000 SP4 it complains "SQL Server 2000 is not installed on this machine."
The server I try to install the update is Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition x64. SQL Server 2000 database itself is x86 (obviously).
Thanks.
Hello,
I just installed SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition from my company's DVD. It was installed with the setting of using both Integrated windows authenitication as well as basic named authenication. I installed all the options too: Database Engine, Analysis Services, Reporting Services, SQL Server compact edition, and Integration Services. When I look at services there are: SQL Server Integration Services, SQL Server Analysis Services, SQL Server Reporting Services, and SQL Server Browser. All of which are running. Something that took me offguard was the installation did not ask me to provide an SA password. Other than that, the install looked like it went good.
I was able to connect to the local instance of the SQL Server 2005 using the SQL Server Management Studio. I could connect with SA, or connect with Integrated Windows Authenication. Whoohoo. Off and running! As a matter of fact, for the SA account I could use any password and it would still log me in.
First thing I did was I went in to the copy wizard to attempt to copy a database from a server on our network to my local box. First it asked me for the remote server. Then when I specified my local instance in the wizard, the wizard complained that my local instance was NOT SQL Server 2005. Doh! This I didn't understand. I figured maybe I need to check for MS updates. Sure enough, I found that ther was a SP2 and then a hot-fix for that SP2. I applied both. Now I cannot connect from SQL Server Management studio to my local instance of SQL Server 2005 database server. I get the following error:
"An error 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. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)"
However, I went in to see what other services I could connect to, and here's the results:
Analysis Services : OK!
Reporting Services (Windows Auth/Basic/Forms) : NG "The reporting Services Instance could not be found (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient)"
SQL Server Compact Edition : NG "The database cannot be found. Check the path to the database. [ File Name = CCG092 ] (SQL Server Compact Edition ADO.NET Data Provider)
Integration Services : OK!
I can connect to other SQL Server databases on our network. However, just not my local one. No one on the network can connect to me either.
I even turned off my windows firewall and still no luck connecting to my own.
So something really went wrong when I applied SP2, however, admittedly from the error message when I tried to use the copy wizard, something was probably already wrong.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

We successfully installed the first INstance of SQL Server 2005 with success. NOw we are trying to install a second instance and seems to get hung up when configuring the Database Services.
Anyone run into this issue? Should we stop all services from running on the server?
Is it possible to install a 2000 instance on a 2005 server? Just install a named instance and install 2000 in a different directory?
View 5 Replies View RelatedThis has me totally baffled. I have a default instance of SQL Server 2005 on a server and I installed a second instance on the same server.

I want to integrate SQL Server 2005 setup into my Testproject Configurator setup. SQL Server 2005 install files should not be included in TestProject setup. If SQL Server 2005 is not installed on the target computer and install files are available then TestProject setup will install SQL Server 2005 with myProjectInstance instance name.
how the setup can install the custom instance name.?

I installed SQL 2005 Standard Edition in my XP machine, but I don't have any instances. When I use Add/Remove programs, and click Change in Microsoft SQL Server 2005, it says that "No instances have been installed.

Thanks.
I have SQL server 2005 on a Windows 2003 machine. The machine is old and I need to move the entire SQL server to a new machine. There are many databases and users that need to move across to the new server. Detaching and attaching the databases would be tedious due to the large number of databases. Is there a way of moving the DB's and SQL users to the new machine without having to do each db one at a time?
Additional info that might be helpful:
The new server's IP address and name must also change to that of the old server.
The old server initially had SQL 2000 on it and was upgraded to SQL 2005.
The new server was installed with SQL 2005 only. Hence the Database and log paths differ between the old and new server.
Any help would be appreciated.
We've devoted a resource to this today, but I have to believe it's something easy that we're overlooking. The scneario is that we have a production Web application that until last weekend had a SQL 2000 back end. This weekend we installed a new instance of SQL 2005 and everything works (we tested in a sandbox environment, but someone must not have load tested enough) and never saw these exceptions. So, after the upgrade we now receive 100's of thexe SQL excptions per day:A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.)A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The specified network name is no longer available.)Does anyone know what we've overlooked that's causing this issue?Thanks for any help!

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have just installed SQL Server 2005. I was not given a choice during installation (that I remember seeing anyway) about which drive I wanted to place the default SQL instance on.
It ended up on C: and I needed it on D:.

Is there a way to move it to D: that is easier than the way you had to go about it in SQL 2000?
Is there a way to do it during setup so I can avoid this in the future?
Several applications in out environment use Microsoft access to access the SQL server databases. Our new SQL Server 2005 instance is a named instance. We would like to create a .reg file to update the individual workstations as part of the migration. For some reason the .reg file with a named instance does not work. If the entry is created through the GUI it works. The server drop down does not show the named instance, only the server name but if you type the servernameamed_instance it finds it ok.

What happens when you install a SQLEXPRESS instance on a machine that already has SQL Server 2005? Will the SQLEXPRESS still run in the limited mode or will it sense that an full standard version of SQL Server 2005 is already present and just "upgrade" itself?
On the otherhand, how do I "upgade" an existing instance of SQLEXPRESS to a full version of SQL Server 2005 standard edition without uninstalling and installing the standard edition. If I have both the instances then will the SQLEXPRESS be freed from its limits?
Thanks,
