I'm trying to re-install SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine andSQL Server client tools. I have succesfully re-installed the desktop engine,but I am getting the following error message when attempting to re-install theclient tools.
"Setup has detected an existing client tools only installation.
Please use the maintenance mode to add client components"
Unfortunately the Upgrade/Add/Remove option is greyed out as
an install option.
I attempted the registry hive rebuild option and the install appeared
to succeed. However, I cannot access any tools (Enterprise Manager
comes up with the message "The selected file cannot be found").
At this point, the desktop engine appears in Add/Remove programs
Window, but no other SQL Server components.
I am trying to install client tools on my desktop and I am getting the following error :
Edition Change Check (Warning)
Messages Edition Change Check
To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter.
This error , I am have seen in the logs.
The installation wizard is closing down with the above log error.
According to MS Knowledge Base Article 269824, "[SQL Server 2000 ClientTools] ... must be installed ... on any computer on which someone may makedesign changes in an Access project to a SQL Server 2000 database".This is the situation I'm facing. Can I download these Client Tools andinstall them for free, or are they only available on the SQL Server 2000Installation CD?Thanks for any help!
I have tried several times to install SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition on a cluster. SQL Server, SQL browser and SQL Agent installs ok but when the installer start to setup Books on line and client tools (BIDS) and SS Management Studio the installer stops and end the installation.
I get this error (from SQLSetup0021_WBOGSQL01_Core(Local).log)

Why does the installation process stop there and what can I do next?
I have an application that needs to execute dtsrun from a remotemachine. Basically I have a batch file on the remote box, whichhandles the execute. This works fine on a machine with client toolsinstalled. My problem is that I can't install the client tools on theremote box.Does anyone know what I need to install on the remote machine to getthis to execute, without installing the client tools? I've triedcopying dtsrun.exe and dtsrun.rll, but that didn't work
HI I have recently installed a copy of SQL server 2005 on to a windows 2003 server. During the install I selected to install the client tools (management studio and all that) all seemed to install ok no errors but after the install there is no management studio in the start menu. I have tried uninstalling the client tools and reinstalling them again I have also tried to launch management studio by browsing to the SqlWb.exe but the program fails to initialise any ideas?
I am trying to install the client tools for management purposes only on a IBM T42 laptop which meets all the hardware and software requirements listed on MS support including the HCL list, the Readme, the forums and MSDN but the install still shows the following log messages when the install fails.
AdminMessage = Setup requires user to be in the administrator group in order to continue the installation process. Setup is aborting as the current user is not in the administrator group.
(I am an adminsistrator on this machine)
Property(S): SupportedOSMessage = Installation of this product failed because it is not supported on this operating system. For information on supported configurations, see the product documentation.
Property(S): SupportedProcTypeMessage = This Microsoft SQL Server Native Client package is not supported on the current processor type.
Hi, A quick Q for all the Sql Server 2000 beta testers out there. Does anyone know of any problems associated with using SS2000 Enterprise Manager with a SS7 backend running SP2? In particular, I'm keen to try out the Tsql debugger features, if they'll work with SS7.
Many thanks in advance, Jon Reade, Sql Server 7 DBA NEC Technologies (UK) Ltd Telford, Shropshire.
I think I may have figured out the solution to my recent conundrum with SQL Server 2000 that had me stressed and depressed over the last couple of days. In a nutshell, after a HotFix was installed on a SQL2K database server I have space on, I was unable to perform INSERT or UPDATE queries on database table of type TEXT, when trying to either create or modify records with more than 4,000 characters of data. While it was frustrating as heck, it seemed too rigid to be random, so I did some snooping.
The HotFix was intended to solve a known problem of not being able to run UPDATEs against TEXT fields, but in so doing, caused another headache entirely: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=839523
Apparently this is a semi-known problem, in that a certain HotFix forces SQL Server 2000 to be a lot more stringent in requiring explicit declaration of data types and data lengths for parameters in stored procedure. In my client code, I was initially using the overloaded constructor of the SqlParameter object that took as arguments only the parameter name and a value, without specifying a value from the SQLDBType enumeration or length of the parameter (which in my case, needs to be TEXT and 16 (or 2147483647), respectively):
It appears that after the HotFix is installed, if the client doesn’t syntactically set the type and length of data for a parameter, SQL Server and/or .NET will default to a type of NVARCHAR, which has the 4,000-character limit. This all makes sense. I’m going to now need to modify the code to straight out declare what’s going in the SPROC:
It’s a minor change, and it sucks that I have to make it after the code had worked flawlessly over several thousands executions over several months, but c’est la vie! Better thay than have to rebuild my DB from scratch or switch to a new server. Changing the client code evidently is the only known fix at this time: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3ben-us%3b827366
I have many sql 2000 DTS packages that I support from my development workstation running v2000 sp4. Packages are altered on the development machine and then go through a normal release mechanisms to production via testing servers etc.
I have recently installed the client tools for SQL Server 2005 on my desktop to evaluate the product. The 2005 DB instance is running on a seperate server.
So, I have dev edition of sql 2000 and 2005 client tools (including BI Dev studio etc) on my workstation.
I have recently had to make changes to a 2000 DTS package and used my 2000 enterprise manager to do so. No Problem- saved and tested fine on my workstation.
But when I try and release it to another server, or open the package using enterprise manager from another machine that does not have sql 2005 installed - I get an error message 'Unspecified error'. This I've seen before when trying to open packages created in v2000 , using v7 or where the service packs are different between machines.
Digging around my workstation and comparing some of the DLLs I know to be required to distribute DTS packages (from RDIST.txt) it seems that some of the SQL 2000 dll files have been updated by my 2005 installation.
E.g
DTSFFILE.DLL on my machine is 2000.85.1054.0 whilst on any 'clean' 2000 machine is at version v2000.80.760.0
Surely it cant be right that SQL 2005 has newer versions of components for SQL 2000 than is available with the latest SP for the actual product! Especially considering that the installation of 2005 does not even allow you to edit 2000 DTS packages through the management studio without a 'special' download' of the feature pack,(whihc by the way does not work very well either)
So am I to conclude that you can not run side by side installations of SQL 2000 and 2005 on a single machine and expect 2000 to run as it did previously

i am trying to install SQL 6.5 client on 2000 box. but the installation wants to install an SQL 6.5 SERVER on it. Is there something im forgetting? is there a way and if so how? if not, is there a workaround with out upgrading the sql 6.5 server.
In Server Explorer of VS .NET 2003, I tried to generate SQL script of the dbo.Portal (ibs) but got "To use this feature, you must install the client tols for SQL Server"
When I searched for Help, I've got "1.Insert the MS SQL Server 2000 compact disc in your CD-ROM drive"
I installed and use MSDE and cannot recall the use of any CD for installation.
1) Does it mean that I cannot install client tools from MSDE installation?
If not...
2) I have installation of MS SQL Server200 Enterprise that cannot be installed on Windows Xp Professional that I use. Can I still install "client tools" from Enterprise Ed. for MSDE
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2000 client tools on an XP workstation.MSDE already exists on the workstation. During the install I am neverprompted for a location to install to. I want to install to my D drive. Theinstall defaults to my C drive.Any thoughts?
Hello,Is it necessary to upgrade the Client Connectivity Tools on all clientmachines after the SQL Server database server is upgraded from Version7.0 to 2000?Thank you in advance!Eddy
I have to go back east.. I am going to be working remotely. We still used SQL Server 2000 at work.. Will I be able to use SQL Server 2005 Express edition to remotely connect to and modify stored procs and tables?
i was tried to install SQL Server 2k Client tools connectivity to my win 95, i was follow the installation procedure, 1). install common library updates for win 95, and then 2). install the server component (client connectivity tools), the installation is running well till copying "Microsoft Data Access Components - MDAC", i got error message : "Installation of the MDAC package failed (-1)". (so the installation doesn't complete).
please anybody help me, what's happen to my computer ????????? :confused:
I have been trying for 2 days now to get the SQL Server management tools installed on client machines. I'm starting to think it is not possible to do that the way we used to be able to with previous versions of SQL Server. I have installed 3rd party open source software on my own machine so that I can query the database without logging onto the server directly and would like for my co-workers to be able to do the same. As I mentioned we tried the SQL Server Management studio and all we get is a message saying to uninstall all the beta and Visual Studio *** on our machines. We stripped one machine all the way down to the OS and still kept getting that message so I'm guessing it is some new Windows Vista issue that makes SQL Server 2005 client tools completely incompatible with XP. However, we are not going to bow to Microsoft's evil ways and upgrade to their new OS just to use the SQL Server Studio. If need be I will write my own software to workaround this problem. In the meantime, can anyone recommend some good 3rd party tools that will allow us to query the SQL Server 2005 database on a server and preferably one that does not require all other software be removed first?
hi i have a question about images in sql server. is it useful to store images in binary format in sql server or not. maybe this method is better than to sore images somewhere in the server, but i don't know mabe it uses more space or slows getting that images from sql server.
I just installed SQL Server for the first time on a windows 2003 OS which is on its on server. Then, I installed the client tools on my local computer. Now how do I connect to the sql server with my client tools? What I wanted to do is from my local computer use the enterprise manager and pull up the databases that are located on the server that contains the sql server.
Someone please help me before I loose all of my hair :mad: !!!
I have two machines, a Windows Server 2003 machine running an SQL Server Standard Edition database instance and client tools (Enterprize Manager etc.), and a workstation PC running Windows XP SP2 which has just the SQL Server client tools (not an actual DB instance).
I'm trying to use the Enterprize Manager client tool on my WinXP machine to remotely connect to the server instance on the server PC (via 'New SQL Server Registration' option). Everytime I do this I get the following error message:
Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection.
Now I've tried using different usernames and passwords. I have login details for my SQL Server set to use Windows Login rather then SQL Server login, so I tried remotely connecting with the username and password for the server PC, tried 'sa' with server password, even tried setting up a new user on the server and logging in from the client with that, no luck. I've opened up correct ports 1433 on both PCs, even disabled the windows firewalls algother. Both server and client have SP3a installed, WinServer2003 has SP1 and XP SP2.
So I'm at a loss to how to remotely connect to my SQL Server. FYI I know the server itself is working fine because I can connect to it using Enterprize Manager/Query Analyser on the local machine. Any ideas? Many thanks for your help!
I have installed SQL server 2005 enterprise edition on Windows 2003 virtual PC (full installation). The installation went through successfully. However, after install completed, I cannot find any of the client tools under the start menu -> all programs -> Microsoft SQL server 2005 menu. The only item listed under the SQL server 2005 is Configuration Tools, which is used to configure the database server.
I have tried to install the client component again (in case I didn't install them at the first place) but the installation process cannot be started since it detected that the client components have been installed already. I can also see the sql server native client running in the services.
The server engine is working fine since I can connect to that sql server using another machine where I have the client tool (SQL server management studio).
One of my friends has exactly the same problem. He installed the sql server 2005 Standard edition on windows 2003 server (full installation), but the client tools are not showing up in the start menu either.
I also checked the location for the SQL server management studio (Microsoft SQL server/90/Tools/Binn/VSShell/Common7/IDE), there is only one folder called publicAssemblies listed under. Is this correct or something is missing?
I have installed successfully Microsoft SQL server 2005 in MSCS.
However the set up did not install Workstation components (client tools - SSMS etc).
I have successfully installed workstation components in one node of cluster.
However setup is giving following error while installing workstation components on other node. (From this node MS SQL server 2005 was installed).

Is it possible to install and configure the MSDTC resource in a SQL Server 2000 cluster after SQL is installed and running?
When I recently went through a rebuild of my cluster, I forgot to install the resource before installing SQL Server. Now, if I install and bring online the MSDTC resource the SQL disk groups will not fail over correctly. The SQL Server resource will not come online.
Thanks in advance for any help. I would really like to avoid rebuilding again.
I downloaded and performed a full install of SQL Server Express 2008 Nov CTP. It was installed on a fresh installation of Windows Vista Enterprise x64.
During setup, I checked the 'Client Tools' box which has the description: "Includes management and development tools: SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and Database Engine Tuning Advisor"
The installation ran fine with no errors. After install I looked for the Management Studio but couldnt find it anywhere. No SQL Server Profiler or Database Tuning Advisor either. The only tool that appears to have installed is the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
If I check my Start Menu, the only 2008 items that exist are Microsoft SQL Server 2008 >
Configuration Tools >
