Does anyone know what registry key, controls the SQL Server Agent Service Login parameters?
I'm building an Installer Package (.MSI) and part of my task is to alter the Login properties for the SQL Server Agent Service, and to also make its start-up parameter "automatic" Does anyone know where in the registry I can do this, or if its even in the registry?
Also does anyone know what DLL I can check for to see if SQL Server MSDE is installed on a computer (running XP)?
Hi, I have installed the MSDE and use mixed mode authenticaton. The SQL Server Agent will not start due to login failures. Normally, I would use the Enterprise Manager Managment wizard to correct the System Account and Connection Credentials.
Can anyone tell me how to achieve this using OSQL?
please help me, i need to know if i need to purchase a sql agent for veritas backup exec. i am using the sql msde version only, not the full scale version. any help would be great.
when I run a package from a command window using dtexec, the job immediately says success. DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_SUCCESS (0). Started: 3:37:41 PM Finished: 3:37:43 PM Elapsed: 2.719 seconds
However the Job is still in th agent and the status is executing. The implications of this are not good. Is this how the sql server agent job task is supposed to work by design.
We just moved source server to newer, bigger box ... Windows 2003 and Active Directory ... Snapshot agent worked but distribution failed ... Same login as on older machine, login is sysadm, used DCOMCNFG to allow ability to launch process ... What are we missing?
I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters. I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is "text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test, I simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this this question but I'll give it a shot.
The only db development that I have ever done is in MS Access. I have a project at work that is being accomplished in VB and I need a db engine to use as the back end. Visual studio came with a copy of MSDE. Is this tool worth using or should I invest in mySQL? Are there any advantages to using MSDE over mySQL?
I would appreciate any help here at all. I am pulling my hair out!
I am unable to start the snapshot agent or log reader agent from within SQL management studio. it fails on executing step 2 with unknown username or bad password.
I have checked all account details and they are correctly using my domain admin account. I can connect to SQL using teh same account and it also has sysadmin permissions.
If i copy the step 2 paramters and start from the cmd prompt (again logged in using the same domain account) they both start fine.
I am testing peer to peer replication in our environment. I simulated a three node peer to peer topology and a local distributor.
For some wierd reason I cannot get the Log Reader Agent and snapshot agent to start. The domain account under which SQL Server Agent runs has administrator previlage on the box. I also use a domain account for SQL Server Service. (none of the passwords changed).
This is the error I am getting - "Executed as user: abc. A required privilege is not held by the client. The step failed"
at the moment I have the following problem: We have installed a version of the MSDE 2000 Sp3 with our software since 2005. Now we install SQL Server Express 2005 in order to use the latest version and to be compatible with Vista. We have never had any problems with the MSDE, so it was no problem that we installed the german version (by mistake) because there never was any output at installation time. When we now upgrade the existing MSDE installing the new version of our software, there are often problems and there are error messages, unfortunately in german, which cannot be read by most of our international users.
The problem is, that there seems to be no possibility to upgrade the existing (german) MSDE with the english version of SQL Server Express 2005. My question is, if it is possible to upgrade the german MSDE to the english SQL Server 2005 to enable our international users to read the error messages at installation time in english?
While I was out of the office the Lan Team moved one of my SQL Server2000 servers to a new network domain. Since then the maintenance jobhas not ran.The error log for the SQL Agents has the message listed in the subjectline. I have not found any useful articles on the MS SQL Serversite. Anyone know what might be wrong and how to fix it.HTH -- Mark D Powell --

Am I getting this error because I'm using the Desktop Engine version of the SQL Server 2000??
Is there a difference with sql replication between sql server 2005 64bit and sql server 2005 32bit? Both are on a Windows 2003 server. One is 32 bit and the other one is 64 bit. The first time I set up sql replication (test environment), it was on a 32 bit sql server. This worked fine. The second time I wanted to set up replication (live environment), it was on a 64 bit sql server. This didn't worked fine.
I can't call the sqlcesa30.dll file on the 64bit server with IIS. So I called the dll via a remote IIS server. This worked but gave me the following error when calling the following URL: http://domain/PDASYNC/sqlcesa30.dll?diag

After seeing this I looked up what ReadWriteDeleteMessageFile could mean. It appeared to be some NTFS acces problem. But when I checked the security settings, it all seemed to be ok.
Has anyone any idea what else to check? Or is sure that I must have done something wrong?
Sql server agent is running under a domain account that is a member of administrators and domain users amongst others, and the package is executed as the service account. Connecting to servers on the same domain works and when I run it from the msdb package store in ssis (ssis runs under the network service account ...) it will connect to the pop server as well. Permissions, fiddly proxies .. the answer's out there somewhere

I have created a SQL server database on my localhost. The live server that I am going to host the site does not have SQl server. I was thinking of putting MSDE on the live server. Would I have to make any changes to my SQL server database to put on the live server where i only have MSDE. Any idea what's involved with all that??
I have an SQL Server .MDF and .LDF file. The files were created a while ago and backed up. Well I need to use the database again, however I can't use SQL Server. So my next solution is MSDE.
How to I create a new database in MSDE using the already created .MDF and .LDF files as the actual database?
Hi have just installed MSDE on a laptop. When I installed it I created a default account username - sa password - ?
With network protocols enabled and in mixed mode.
I then Created a script of a databse from are SQL server and ran that on the MSDE. So now I have an identical database on the laptop, but without any data. All going well hey. The problem is I am now trying to copy the data across using the DTS wizard in SQL server. I can select the server from the dropdown, but it will not let me connet, it says not aurthorised or cannot find server. I am using SQL authentication, and using the user account sa. Any ideas what I'm missing. Am very new to SQL server, so any help would be very much appreciated.
I own a copy of SQL Server 7 but am not using it for anything at present. I want to convert an Access db to this Server however I'd like to have a development environment on my laptop. Can I install MSDE and manually transfer the .db files to and from the SQL Server seamlessly?
I am using SQL Server 2000 MSDE for Test Development of a site in .Net. The MSDE is installed on my workstation and the web site is depolyes on a web server. When I try to access data from the site at the development server, the connection to the SQL Server MSDE fails, saying: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: SQL Server does not exist or access denied
But when I access the web site from the same box where the SQL Server MSDE is installed, everything works fine.
Hi, We have developed a product in VB using MS-Sql Server200 as the DB. Now for distributing the product we have decided to use MSDE. Can any one tell me how to distribute the Product with MSDE. What should we do for that
hi - I am developing locally using .Net 2.0/Access but just recently started trying out SQL Server Express. I have deployed my application to a host who provides 2.0 but as would be expected only MSDE/SQL server 2000. Now if I'd switch completely to SSE, would my SQL queries (which are pretty simple) work on MSDE or SQL server 2000? The only thing I see as more sophisticated sql queries would be the built-in 2.0 Roles/Membership functions... Do you think they would run smoothly on MSDE/SQL 2000?Finally... since the database is already done locally, is there any way (a stored procedure for example) to copy it's scheme if I'd create a new DB on my host's SQL server?
We have 3 MSDE databases (3 seperate servers) which we need to make into one Sql 2000 server (new server). How is this done? Can't find anything clear about this.
Hello everyone !!! I need to do a process that run every day to update some data, but my sql server version (express 2005) does not have job agent service. Does anyone can give me a suggestion of what to do? Thank you!

Hope you can help Thanks Mel
I am unable to start SQL Server Agent. When I try, I get this message: "An Error 1053 - (The service did not respond to the stort or control request in a timely fashion) occurred while performing this service operation on the SqlServerAgent service."
Is it possible to schedule a job to automatically send e-mails based on criteria in a database table, maybe using CDONTS? I don't want to use SQLMail, since my administrator has not set that up. Also, I don't want to write the code in an ASP page for the following reason: If the page is not being viewed at the time I want the e-mail to be sent, it won't work. Besides, it's not efficient to have to read this code for no reason every time a page is loaded in the hopes someone loads it at the correct time. Any suggestions?
We received the error messages below (in the SQLAgent Log) when trying to execute a SQL Job manually. These errors do not appear if the job is executed automatically, and consequently runs smoothly. Only when we try to kick off the job manually does it fail and report these errors.
3/20/01 4:27:16 AM - ! [000] Password verification of the 'SQLAgentCmdExec' proxy account failed (reason: A required privilege is not held by the client) 3/20/01 4:27:16 AM - ! [000] Password verification of the 'SQLAgentCmdExec' proxy account failed (reason: A required privilege is not held by the client)
If anyone has any insight into this issue it would be greatly appreciated.
