Installing SQL Server Standard Edition 2005 After Installing SQL Server Express 2005

Feb 14, 2007

Hi

I have installed SQL Server Express 2005 on my machine.

I want to install SQL Server Standard Edition 2005 on my machine to check new services it has.

Can these 2 Editions coexist with each other, or any troubles you think might encounter?

Thanks

Installing SQL Server Express

Jul 9, 2007

Please tell me what I am missing here. I've got an XP Pro machine with SQL Server Express running and a laptop with XP running the Management Studio Express. This is on my home network which is wireless. I can't see any databases on the XP Pro machine from the laptop. Is there something besides just installing SQL Server that I need to do? I've checked forums, documentation and co-workers but no luck. Thanks in advance

WHAT NEXT AFTER INSTALLING SQL SERVER EXPRESS?

Sep 24, 2006

I have installed SQL Server Express with Advanced Services SP1 option. I am not really sure if I should have done this but I could not resist the temptation to have as many options as I could get. I even installed some samples/sample databases.

However, I cannot understand how to start using the SQL Express package which (unlike the Visual Basic 2005 Express or the Web Developer Express I also downloaded) does not show me a start up page. I get SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting and SQL Server Surface Area Configuration, all from Configuration Tools. I have no idea how to proceed.

Could I have downloaded the wrong package?

Installing SQL Server Express

Dec 7, 2006

I am having a problem installing SQL Server Express 2005 from the command line in that it gets part way through and then stops - no message - just terminates. After much rooting around in log files and running a normal install I'm pretty sure that it is stopping because of a warning regarding "Minimum Hardware Requirements".

The laptop I'm trying to install it on is a Samsung X05, Centrino 1.4, 1gb RAM and 60gb free disk space. I've tried it on another laptop (Sony with a higher spec.) and get exactly the same problem.

As far as I can see the hardware spec is well above the recommended minumum so I'm at a loss as to what to try next to overcome the problem. If anyone has any suggestions then I'd be very grateful.

Trouble Installing SQL Express

Oct 19, 2006

When trying to install SQL Server 2005 Express, it hangs up on "Detecting Installed IIS". This happens if I have IIS installed, and if I do not. My computer is running XP Media Edition. I found a similar question asked by flashg on these forums, but there was no answer to the problem. There were a few other people who posted the same problem.

Is there any fix to this? I am writing software that I planned on using SQL Server Express to store its data with. But if SQL Server is going to cause problems on my customer's computers then I cannot use it.

This is the end of the log file for my SQL Server installation:

Installing SQL Express Via Commandline

Apr 1, 2007

So, I read this thread: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=416220&SiteID=1, which suggested that I could call SQLEXPR32.EXE (the SP2 download) with the relevant commandline args in exactly the same way I could call setup.exe. Namely, if I were to call:

Code Snippetsetup.exe /qb /settings "c:/setup.ini"

then I should be able to use

Code SnippetSQLEXPR32.exe /qb /settings "c:/setup.ini"

where my setup.ini contains

Code Snippet[Options]
ADDLOCAL=SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity
INSTANCENAME=AuctionI
SAPWD=auctioni_000
SECURITYMODE=SQL

However, this doesn't seem to be working at all - the commandline params to SQLEXPR32.EXE are completely ignored, and it runs as if they were not specified.

Would be great to get some help on this. I'm equally happy with the set of commands I need to call in order to extract SQLEXPR32 and then run setup, but SQLEXPR32 seems to extract to a random GUID dir, and automatically start setup, neither of which is condusive to automating it.

Thanks,

Dan

Installing SQL Server Express

Aug 20, 2007

I have installed SQL Server Express on a Windows XP Professional workstation. The installation instructions that I was following said that I had to have .NET Framework 2.0 installed. The instructions said that I should uninstall any versions before I tried to install 2.0. My computer already has version 2.0 and version 3.0 installed, so I did not remove anything.

My problem is that now that I have SQL Express installed I cannot seem to connect to anything. I was specifically trying to convert an Access database to SQL Server format, and I keep getting a "connection failed" error. I don't seem to have any way to start SQL Express. Does it have to be started or is it running by default? What am I doing wrong?

Trouble Installing Sql Express

Nov 20, 2006

Hi,

I was trying to install visual studio 2005 and as part of it I wanted to install sql express as well. It installed the rest okay but not the sql express. Going through the log file I figured out that there was some incompatible beta version installed and hence had to be removed. In the log file I got the following error messages. Going through the forum suggestion I was trying to use msiexec /x to deinstall each of them but got the error message that "The setup has encountered an unexpected error in datastore. The action is Write_CommitFlag. The error is unable to write property into cache: flagCommit. Unable to write property into cache: "flagCommit" XmiRW Error: Failure loading xmlrw.dll CheckAllProcedures. returned 2". After this error message when I check the sql server configuration manager, I still see the old instances running.

I followed up another forum suggestion where I completely installed the old CTP and used the tool provided in the DVD(sqlbuw) to uninstall it but it only removes the one instance and leaves the rest on the system.

I will really appreciate help...

ERRRR:...

Problems Of Installing SQL Express

Jun 5, 2006

I previously installed and uninstalled SQL Express on my laptop. The second time when I try to reinstall SQL Express, it gives me an error and hault the installation.

Here is the error message:

An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Server Native Client cannot be found.Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli.msi'.

Does it mean the setup file is corrupted or something else is causing the error.

Please help, thank you.

Re-installing SQL Server Express

Sep 27, 2006

I recently posted this question in the SQL Server Express forum and it was suggested I also post this issue to this forum. In the hope that someone can shed some light on the problem.

A couple of days ago I installed SQL Server Express and it seemed to be running fine. (I've not really had a lot of time to devote to trying it out).

Today I decided to remove the software as I noticed it placed various components on differnet drives (my fault, I think). Anyway I removed everything using Add/Delete Progams and then deleted any folders left behind.

Now I try a fresh install of SQLEXPR_ADV and I get as far as the "Instance Name" dialog and use the default Named instance of SQLEXPRESS and then click Next.

The next dialog box appears with the heading "Existing components". The three check boxes are grayed out. So I click the Details button and the following is presented on screen:

Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (SQLEXPRESS)
Allowed Action: Maintain (Action is only available from Add or Remove Programs)
Reason: Cannot maintain product, to maintain the product go to Add or Remove Programs

Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services (SQLEXPRESS)
Allowed Action: Maintain (Action is only available from Add or Remove Programs)
Reason: Cannot maintain product, to maintain the product go to Add or Remove Programs

Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools
Allowed Action: Maintain (Action is only available from Add or Remove Programs)
Reason: Cannot maintain product, to maintain the product go to Add or Remove Programs

It has been pointed out that the following services should have been stopped prior to removal.

SQL Server Active Directory Helper
SQL Server Browser
SQL Server FullTest Search (SQLEXPRESS)
SQL Server Reporting Services (SQLEXPRESS)

Surely this should be managed by the Add/Remove process!

I was able to successfully re-install the program as long as I created a new instance.

What should be the correct process to remove SQL Server Express and if necessary how do I remove services if they do not get deleted?

TIA

Steve

Everything appears to be working well, excpet that on Windows XP Home the SQL Express package is exiting with an error code 70002. I've googled for several days now and simply can't find any help on the 70002 exit code. Can anyone help ?

Installing Mgmt Studio Express

I just tried installing SQL Server Management Studio Express Edition (SSMSEE?) and it wouldn't install because I had the "regular" SQL Server Management Studio already installed. Is that correct? The version I installed was a CTP. Is the final version going to have the same limitations?

Installing SQL Server 2005 Express

Dec 8, 2006

I am working on Win2K Pro & had SQL Server 2005 Express & SQL Server Management Studio installed. The SQL Server name was MerverSQLEXPRESS. Due to some unavoidable reasons, I had to repair (& not re-install) Win2K but after doing so, I found that I am not able to connect to the database server. I uninstalled all the components related to SQL Server 2005 Express (like Management Studio, Support Files, BOL etc.) from my m/c & then restarted my m/c.

After doing so, I first re-installed SQL Server 2005 Express & other related components (I intended to install SQL Server 2005 Management Studio after installing SQL Server 2005 Express). While installing SQL Server 2005 Express, all the steps get executed successfully except for the last one which happens to be SQL Server Database Services. At this point, I get the following error:

An instance with the same name is already installed on this computer. To proceed with SQL Server Setup, provide a unique instance name.

The problem is after I click the OK button, I am not even given the option to change the instance name! The Status message corresponding to SQL Server Database Services just says Setup failed. Refer to the Setup log for details. Finally, when I click the Next button, the next dialog finishes the Setup (showing the Finish button).

Now how do I overcome this problem? Please note that the Authentication mode I am using is Windows Authentication.

Someone please suggest me a concrete solution. It's driving me nuts! My receding hairline is getting further receded!

Lastly, please note that, as far as possible, I would like to keep the instance name as MerverSQLEXPRESS only.

Installing SQL Express 2005 And ODBC

Hi everyone

I have just installed SQL Server 2005, default settings. I have attempted to add a new ODBC driver using Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Data Sources (ODBC) - System DSN tab - Add - SQL Server - default settings, but it fails.

I did all this for MySQL some months ago, but I must have forgotten something.

Please can someone tell me what to do next.

Thanks in advance.

Differences Between XP And 2003 When Installing SQL Express

Apr 30, 2008

Hello, I'll start by saying that I don't know the first thing about SQL.
I have product that I am trying to setup on a windows 2003 R2 SP2 server that requires SQL Server Express 2005. I have this same setup installed under Windows XP Pro SP2 and it works fine.

The product uses a PHP script to talk to the SQL Server to create the orginal DB but I get the following errors:
*******************************************************************************************************************************************

Creating initial MFP Database...

*********************************************************************************************************
I have enabled the running of PHP scripts under IIS in Windows 2003 R2 (along with all of the other listed web executables). But I am stuck. For some reason the PHP scripts seem to either not have permission to talk to the DB, or Windows has some extra security in it that I need to know how to work correctly with.

I also am checking my ODBC > System DSN
when I try to craete my datasource, I get:
Connection Failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 2
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].
Connection failed;
SQLState: 'HYT00'
SQL Server Error: 0
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
Connection Failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 2
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client] An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to the SQL server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

FYI I have set TCP/IP properties for SQL under Protocol > General > Enable - YES.

Thanks for any assistance.

Installing SQL Express 2K5 On A Domain Controller?

Dec 15, 2006

I want to install SQL Express 2K5 on a lightly used second Windows 2003 SP1 DC. I know about the warning not to do this type of install. However, the group is small and their budget does not allow for another server just for one application. With that being said, the error message I keep getting is "can't create local groups......" (I know that you do not have local groups with AD). So, is there a work around to this issue or can someone point me in the right direction as how to install on a domain controller? Thanks in advance for your time!!!
