Hi All
Can someone help me please?
ive just got a new machine and not had this problem before, at one point the error which appeared briefly before the command prompt window disappeared said it was the namepipe, so i enabled this, that didnt work so i uninstalled, and reinstalled SQL Server 2005.
The next error message i received when the command prompt was closing was (in brief)
HRESULT 0xFFFFFFF Level 16, State 1
an error occurred whilst establishing a connection to the server
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft Native Client : Login timeout expired.
I have just updated to sql server 2008 and the same thing happened. I cant paste into the SQLCMD window and I havent got a 1> command prompt.
I tried to drop down into dos prompt and it wouldn't accept it said "the filename, directory name or volume syntax is incorrect".
I turned on iis, ive tried everything I can think of, i have come to the conclusion it must be something to do with the version of Windows Vista Home Premium I am running, I haven't had any problems on any other machines XP or Vista.
Any help would be gratefully accepted.
Cheers

The MSDN Library topic Using the sqlcmd utility(SQL Server Express) states "To access the sqlcmd utility, click Start, click Run, and type sqlcmd.exe."
A command prompt window opens with "SQLCMD" in the title bar. I cannot enter anything in the command prompt window and the window remains open for only about five or six seconds.
The version I have installed is MS SQL Server 2005 Express with SP2. The cumulative updates package 3 does not list this problem, so I did not install it.

SQL Server 2012 Replication. The command prompt instance of the replication is being run as the same user as the SSMS "version" using the runas option. With SSMS the error is that the client is missing a privilege. There is no error when it runs from the command prompt. All runs well.
We have reinstalled the replication feature.We have gone through several MSDN articles that indicate exactly what privileges (both within the DB and in Windows) that service account should have. None have worked Incidentally, when I create a new publication and indicate that the SQL Server Agent be used , the publication runs.

Scenario:
I have installed SQL Express 2005 and I want to create a new DB using sqlcmd.
I am running a command like: sqlcmd -i file.ini (I am logged like Administrator of PC)
the content of the file.ini is:
-- Get the SQL Server data path
DECLARE @data_path nvarchar(256);
SET @data_path = 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabase'
-- execute the CREATE DATABASE statement
EXECUTE ('CREATE DATABASE DataCollection ON
( NAME = DC_dat,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DC.mdf'',
SIZE = 10,
MAXSIZE = 50,
FILEGROWTH = 5 )
LOG ON
( NAME = DC_log,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DClog.ldf'',
SIZE = 5MB,
MAXSIZE = 25MB,
FILEGROWTH = 5MB )'
) ;
GO
I obtain this error:
Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.
Msg 5123, Level 16, State 1, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 5(Access is denied.) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabaseDC.mdf'.
If I change the security of directory database (I add "modify" permission to Users windows group) the error disappear.
I am logged like Administrator... why is it necessary to change directory permission?

I want to install the SQL Server Express Edition silently at command prompt (but want the dialog boxes, I mean with /qb option), locally, with no network options.
I want to install it with following options
i) In the Feature Selection, I need
a) Data file (Database Services)
b) Shared tools (Database Services)
c) Connectivity Components (Client Components)
d) Management Studio Express (Client Components)
ii) Instance name as €œDefault Instance€?
iii) Service Account as €œUse Built-in service accountà Local System€?
iv) Authentication Mode as €œMix mode€? with sa password as €˜sysadm€™
v) Collate Settings as €œLatin1_General_CS_AI
How could I achieve this using command prompt?
I already had done
start /wait setup.exe /qb ADDLOCAL=ALL SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=sysadm SQLCOLLATION=Latin1_General_CS_AI
any other attribute need to add?
Regards,
Thanks.

I just started using SQL 2005 and having a bit of struggle.
I'm having difficulty trying to use the .ini file to install sql express. This is the command I use in Command Prompt:
start /wait expresssetup.exe /settings setup.ini /qn
echo %errorlevel%
Then I get an error level of €˜-204€™, which I couldn€™t find the meaning on the internet or anywhere else.
But when I move the parameters from the .ini file to the batch file and the process worked. SQL started installing, until it comes to the SQL Server Database Services component. Then I get the following error message:
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
Here is how my batch file looks with parameters:
start /wait expresssetup.exe /qb
INSTANCENAME=€?EXAMPLE€?
ADDLOCAL=All SAPWD="difficult"
INSTALLSQLDIR="C:Program FilesMS"
INSTALLSQLDATADIR="C:Program FilesMSData"
SECURITYMODE="SQL" SQLACCOUNT="user"
SQLPASSWORD="password"
AGTACCOUNT="user"
AGTPASSWORD="password"
SQLBROWSERACCOUNT="user"
SQLBROWSERPASSWORD="password"
Please, can anyone help? I don't know what to do anymore.
Thanks.

I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 using command prompt. I have gotten the latest download. My question is what is the commad prompt for the tag ADDLOCAL for SQL Server Management Studio Express. For SQL Server datatbase it is called SQL_Engine. In the same way what should I be using for "SQL Server Management Studio Express". I want to limit the choices that are installed on the user machines.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I would be very grateful if someone could take a look at my command line install and offer advice on if I am doing it correctly.
The reason I am asking is because I cannot seem to get the server installed without having errors during the installation:
"The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated with service-specific error 17113 (0x42D9)"
Looking at the server error log indicates that master.mdf was not in the data directory (I have however specified a different data directory for ease of backup by our software and this is created during the install but does not have this database in the data directory - it is however in the template data directory!
I also get this error when the SQL Server service is started:
"The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 3417 (0xD59)."
All advice is welcome. Please see below my batch file. Also, if you think I should do this in a different way then please let me know. I basically want to install SQL server on a customer computer and automate the install so the custoemr does not need to enter any information.
The goal of this install is:
[1] Deply a custom .Net application and SQL server at the same time on the same computer without user input.
[2] Allow remote .Net applications (designed by myself also) to connect over a LAN (and later maybe over a WAN) to the database to the above database.
The command line is this (I have also included the batch file I am usign below). For ease of reading I have put the parameters on a new line below:
setup.exe /qb
username="CustomerUsername"
companyname="OurCompany"
addlocal="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK"
disablenetworkprotocols="0"
instancename="MSSQLSERVER"
INSTALLSQLDATADIR="c:SqlData"
USESYSDB="c:SqlData"
SAVESYSDB="1"
SQLAUTOSTART="1"
SECURITYMODE="SQL"
SAPWD="#StrongPaSSword#"
======= Batch file Start ======
SET MODE=/qb
SET SETUP_EXE=sqlfilessetup.exe %MODE%
SET SQLDATADIR=c:SqlData
SET SET_USERNAME=username="CustomerUsername"
SET SET_COMPANYNAME=companyname="OurCompany"
SET SET_ADDLOCAL=addlocal="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK"
SET SET_DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=disablenetworkprotocols="0"
SET SET_INSTANCENAME=instancename="MSSQLSERVER"
SET SET_INSTALLSQLDATADIR=INSTALLSQLDATADIR="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SAVESYSDB=SAVESYSDB="1"
SET SET_USESYSDB=USESYSDB="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SQLAUTOSTART=SQLAUTOSTART="1"
SET SET_SECURITYMODE=SECURITYMODE="SQL"
@REM === RE-INSTALL PARAMS - NOT CURRENTLY BEING USED?? SHOULD I ADD THESE ALSO? ===
SET SET_REINSTALLMODE=REINSTALLMODE="omus"
SET SET_REINSTALL=REINSTALL="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK"
SET SET_REBUILDDATABASE=REBUILDDATABASE="1"
SET SET_SAPWD=SAPWD="#StrongPaSSword#"
@REM === START THE SETUP / RE-INSTALL ===
START %SETUP_EXE% %SET_USERNAME% %SET_COMPANYNAME% %SET_ADDLOCAL% %SET_DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS% %SET_INSTANCENAME% %SET_INSTALLSQLDATADIR% %SET_USESYSDB% %SET_SAVESYSDB% %SET_SQLAUTOSTART% %SET_SECURITYMODE% %SET_SAPWD%
======= Batch file End ======
Your advice is kindly welcome.
Thank you
Kind regards

Hello!
Recently, I set up server with Windows Web Server 2008 RC1, SQL 2008 Express beta, .NET 3.5, IIS 7.
I'm running ASP.NET web application with SQL database. Everything works fine until the first application state on the server expires. After that, any postback that starts a new application state on the server and connects to the database, results in the following error:
Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed.
Is this a bug that will be fixed in release of Windows / SQL or am I doing something wrong?
Many thanks for help,
Jan

Hi all,
I have the "Northwind" database in my Sql Server Management Studio Express.
In my C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02 folder, I have the following 2 files:
(1) ListColumnValues (MS-DOS Batch File)
sqlcmd -S .sqlexpress -v DBName = "Northwind" CName = "CompanyName" TName =
"Shippers" -i c:prosseappschapter02ListListColumnVales.sql -o
c:prosseappschapter02ColumnValuesOut.rpt
(2) ListColumnValues (Microsoft SQL Server Query File)
USE $(Northwind)
GO
SELECT $(CompanyName) FROM $(Shippers)
GO
When I ran the following SQLcmd:
C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02>ListColumnValues.bat
I got the following "ColumnValuesOut.rpt" with error messages:
'Northwind' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '$'.
'CompanyName' scripting variable not defined.
'Shippers' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'CompanyName'.
I copied these T-SQL statements from a book and I do not know how to correct them.
Please help and tell me how to correct these errors.
Thanks in advance,

Downloading and installing VS 2008 Express also created a Miscrosoft SQL Server folder. How do I install the SQL Server 2005 Express?The following is what I found from the HELP menu bar of the VS 2008 Express. Where can I find the sqlexpr.exe?
TIA,Jeffrey
To install SQL Server Express To begin installation, double-click sqlexpr.exe. Note: SQL Server Express is available as a self-extracting executable file (sqlexpr.exe) from both the Visual Studio 2005 CD and the SQL Server Express Web site. SQLEXPR.EXE installs on x86-based computers and to the 32-bit subsystem (WOW64). For more information, see Hardware and Software Requirements (SQL Server Express)

The program shortcut "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" seems to be mising from the "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" Start menu added by the current Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit. Where is it? How to workaround?
I am trying to do Download details SQL Server 2005 Samples and Sample Databases (April 2006) -> GettingStartedWithSQLSamples.htm which says "a. Open a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 command prompt. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, point to Visual Studio Tools, and then click Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt." but I can find no such command prompt within "Visual Studio Tools", only "Visual Studio 2005 Remote Debugger{, Configuration Wizard}".
What's wrong? How to fix or workaround? I'd install .NET SDK 2.0 to get it's Command Prompt but that's about 570MB merely for a command prompt!
Thanks for your help, -Mike Parker

Hello
I recently installed the SQL Express 2005 program after successfully installing C# Express 2008.
When I add a new item (Database1.mdf), I get this error:
"Local database file
An error has occured 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified"
I have restarted my computer and this does not solve the problem. As I am not familiar with SQL (I am following the Tier 2 tutorials at MSDN), I didn't modify any options when installing program.
How do I fix this error?
Thank you

Hi guys,
Looking for some help please...
I have developed a Site using VWD express 2008 and within the site I added a Log-in control and this generated a Database for me called ASPNETDB.MDF, I used this DB with the site Admin feature (Again the auto generated pages!) to add some users so I could test the function of the control. All worked fine :-)
Then because I wanted to make some large additions to the DB I used SMS Express to attach to the DB and make the required changes (Add tables etc!). Once finished I detached from the DB in SMS and closed it down then re-opened VWDx and tried to view the DB but got the following error:
Unable to open the physical file
"C:*********App_DataASPNETDB.MDF". Operating
system error 5: "5(error not found)".
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file
C:************App_DataASPNETDB.MDF failed. A database
with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is
located on UNC share.
(Stars added by me to hide my folder structure etc!)
I am using a Vista machine with ISS installed to any help would be appreciated, as I have tried everything I can think of and no luck.
It's been 2 days now and I am now bald so please give me some good news.
Thanks.

Hi
I have installed VB Express 2008 and also SQL Express 2005, I am working my way through the online tutorials but when it deals with SQL databases I am getting confused as when I add an item i can see the options for local database or server-based database, on the tutorial is shows as sql database which is an option I do not have. I wanted to check is this was correct as SQL Express 2005 is installed on the machine. Am I missing a component, I installed SQL Express 2005 as part of the download through VB Express 2008,
Any help would be great.
Thanks

I installed VWD 2008 on my Vista Business. I had a lot of trouble installing SQL Express 2005 & SQL EXpress 2008 CTP and SQL Express 2008. Finally managed to install SQL Express 2008 on my Vista Business. If anybody has problem installing SQL Express on Vista let me know. I found resources on MSDNER and this forum to resolve this.
But now I have a new problem that is. I can not add the SQL connection from DataExplorer of VWD 2008. It say it can connect only up to SQL 2005. Now I try to install SQL 2005 it goes up to the stage where it says looking for IIS server and disappears.
Does anybody know how to install SQL Express 2005 on Vista Business (while SQL Express 2008 is installed, I don't want to loose it) or get VWD to talk to SQL Express 2008?
Your help is much appreciated.

I was wondering if this is normal. I am creating a website in VS 2008. I created a SQL db and am using SQL server express.
I can go into SQL server managment studio express and open the DB when I start my PC. I can still access the DB when I start VS 2008 and my project but when I run the project I can not access the DB any longer even when the project is not longer running and I'm in design mode. Even if I close VS 2008 I still cannot access DB through SQL server managment. The only way I can access the DB again is if I restart my PC.
Is this normal?
I am running Vista Ultimate.
Thanks,
Ty

I am using the Adventureworks database to to some development training in VB Express 2008.
I have reinstalled the the database from scratch three times. I can successfully attach the database in the SQL Server management studio, but as soon as I make a connection to the database in VB Express and then try to go back into the studio to verify my data changes, I get an error message that the log file does not match the data file. After I get that error in the SSMSE, I can no longer establish a connection in VB Express (login fail error message).
The only solution I've found is to reinstall the .mdf and .ldf files. Obviously, that's not getting me too far in my learning. Hopefully someone can help me out?
