I have to share a home PC now so cannot have things my own way. When using my own PC I had SQL Server 2005 dev edition run on start up. Now I am sharing it seems rather churlish to not have it start on demand.
With 2000 you got a little icon in the taskbar that indicated the status of SQL Server and a quick right click -> start was all you needed to get the little fella up and running. With 2005 you need to go all the way to configuration manager and start it.
I have four options:
#1 - a few mouse clicks to start SQL Server via configuration manager (unacceptable - imagine all the wasted time and RSI!)
#2 - bat file to start SQL Server (ok)
#3 - more sophisticated little app that shows the status of SQL Server in the taskbar and allows me to start it (nice but a pain to put together)
#4 - something much spiffier which one of you gurus can let me in on
I am sat on the edge of my little seat in anticipation :)
I just set up a server with Windows 2003 Standard x64. I have a copy of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition that I got from the Microsoft Launch event. On the back of the case, it gives version requirements for both the x86 and x64 versions. When I went to install it, it didn't ask me which one I wanted to install. When I look on the CD, I see different installers for x86 and x64 for various pre-requisites, like MSXML. As I'm installing SQL Server I see that it is installing most things to "C:Program Files (x86)" which is where 32-bit programs go.. I decided to let it finish. Most of the binaries and everything, include sqlservr.exe, are in the Program Files (x86) folder, but it did install a few things in Program Files, so it must be aware of the difference.
I checked task manager and, I see that the sqlservr.exe and SQLAGENT90.exe are NOT 32-bit processes. So, great, they're running natively in 64-bit mode! But when I look at the server options in SQL Server Management Studio, the patform is listed as NT INTEL X86. The memory page also shows an option to use AWE which according to the documentation is only available and relevant to 32-bit installations.
SO I'm pretty confused. Almost everything points to this being an x86 installation, but the running processes are running natively in x64. Does anyone know what's going on here?
I just tried to run the x64 version of SP1 for SQL 2005, and it told me that it cannot update x86 products, so I guess that clinches it. I'm still pretty confused and annoyed though. If this isn't x64, how can I get an x64 version of the same product, and will my license key work?
After re-installing SQL Server Express 2005 and the Toolkit BIDS will not launch. Windows is looking for a file devenv.exe. Does anyone know how to get around this problem?
Looks like I sucessfully downloaded SQL Server Express Edition w/Advanced Services SP2 on my Vista-based notebook. Took care of the prerequisites from downloading with Vista. I see the Configuration Manager, and Error and Usage Reporting. But......How do I launch SQL Server Express please? Thank you! Sandra Shokite
Is this true that only one Person can query the Server at the same time? ( 1CAL Lizense)
I wrote a .Net Appllication and now the Appllication need acces to the Server to Query Tables. In the "Rush Hour" it is possible that more than 100 Person make Querys from that Application to the SQL Server at the same time.
I don´t understand the CAL Lizens because the SQLServer Express allows up to 20 connection!? The SQLExpress is for free and allow more connections than a paid Version? Or is a difference between connection ( through the Appllication) and Connection through the Management Studio ?
I attended one of the SQL Server 2005 "Ready to Launch" parties a couple of years ago and was given a complimentary SQL Server Standard Edition CAL along with a copy of the SQL Server 2005 Standard setup DVD.
As there's no mention in the "Ready to Launch" pack of an included Server license I was wondering whether it is possible to install a copy of SQL Server 2005 on a standalone server and use the single CAL in a Production environment without having to purchase a Server license? The pack does include a Product Key - is this the Server license?
Hi, I attended the Technet Ready to Launch event and obtained the dvd set, but when I tried to install the sql product, the software won't take the product key (the key is the same as the studio product). Anyone experience the same?
The SQL SERver 2005 Standard Edidtion install CD and the MSDN CD distributedat the SQLServer Launch in Chicago are blank. Has anyone else had thisproblem and or requested replacements? If so, how.thanks muchMo
I apologize in advance for the lack of homework before posting, but I am just looking for a quick answer, or a quick point in the right direction to figure this out.
I have a developer from an adjacent team that wants to use Reporting Services in a SQL Server 2005 installation.
From what I found online during what I thought was a definitive search yesterday, I gave him the MSDN SQL Server 2005 DVD and told him that Reporting Services is now part of the standard installation. Which is what my brief search yesterday indicated to me.
He did the installation (full, according to him) and said he could not find Reporting Services.
So, the quick question is...
Where is Reporting Services in SQL Server 2005? I don't have a separate MSDN DVD that contains it as was the case on SQL Server 2000. This further supports my (wavering) position that it is part of the standard installation.
Thoughts? Direction? Collective kicks in the posterior?
5- Set SQL Project Permission Level to External, change from the project properties Database Tab
"Permission Level Select the permission level from the drop-down list to specify a set of code
access permissions granted to the assembly when accessed by Microsoft SQL Server. The value can be
Safe, External, or Unsafe; these values correspond to the SQL Server permission sets SAFE,
EXTERNAL_ACCESS, and UNSAFE, respectively. Safe is the default.
This setting corresponds to the PERMISSION_SET argument for the SQL Server CREATE ASSEMBLY command. " MSDN
6- "The TRUSTWORTHY database property is used to indicate whether the instance of SQL Server trusts
the database and the contents within it. By default, this setting is OFF, but can be set to ON by
using the ALTER DATABASE statement.
Note: To set this option, you must be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role." MSDN
ALTER DATABASE [Database Name] SET TRUSTWORTHY ON .
7- Build and Deploy assembly.
8- The web service reference generates XmlSerializers assembly, there are many ways to resolve this issue, a quick way would be to add the XmlSerializers assembly to the database where the main CLR assembly is deployed.
From "SQL Server Management Studio" select the target database, goto "Programmability" then -> "Assemblies", there right click "New Assembly" and specify reference.
Hope this is helpful to others. Regards Rabeeh Abla

When I want to run packages allocated in my Windows folder I use LoadPackage; when I want to run packages allocated in my MSDB I use LoadFromSqlServer and at the end of the day when I want to run packages allocated in my File System SSIS folder I use LoadFromDtsServer.
Drawbacks come here according a "new sort of SSIS packages". I'm talking about those packages which are imported from Sql2k from Database Engine->Management->Legacy->Data Transformation Services.
How do I launch this kind of SSIS packages??
I'm totally stuck with this. Or maybe the problem is easier: the ones aren't ssis but dts????????????????
I inherited a computer from a co-worker who left. On it she installed SQL Server 2005. The help system is chock full of references to the various and sundry tutorials that come with the product, but I can't find so much as a syllable about how one actually accesses those tutorials.
When I select Start, Programs, Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Documentation and Tutorials, Tutorials, SQL Server Tutorials, it simply launches one of the help screens. That screen, and the ones it contains links to, describe the tutorials topics in great detail, but nowhere is there any explanation of how you actually launch the tutorials.

I was the happy admin of some reportservers (build 3175) until someone asked me to get the ReportBuilder to work. I've read through the documentation and configured the SSRS site security so that the icon is visible. However when I click on it nothing happens. If I try to launch it by right clicking and then save as -- open I receive the following error:

Here are the things I have checked/tried:
Ensured the .NET Framework Reliant components are enabled in the browser
Running the browser with a user account that is local admin on the workstation
MIME settings on IIS server look ok
I am not seeing any access denieds on my workstation (checked with file and regmon)
I am not seeing any failures in the security event log
For the test that I am doing, both the user account, workstation and server are in the same domain
Don't see any errors in the SSRS logs Can anyone think of anything else that would lead me to resolving this problem?
I need to know a few things about this.. 1. What do I need running or available on SQL Server machine (presuming an Oracle client) 2. Has anyone done this and perhaps can give me some quidance? 3. Any concerns about going from outside a firewall to the Oracle instance?
Architecture is probably going look like this:
SQL -> ON INSERT Trigger -> business logic -> Call Oracle Procedure
My understanding is that Microsoft acquired the rights to use and re-badge Sybase as SQL Server and since then have engaged in a substantial re-write as part of their commitment to it.
Is this correct and can anyone give me some dates ?
I want to build a task that does 3 things automatically at a fixed time interval:
1) Refresh the data (copy newly inserted data from a datamart to a datawarehouse) 2) Run a program (exe) to produce some external reports 3) Refresh an OLAP Cube with the new data so that users can access it
Basically, using SQL Server Agent, setting up steps 1 and 2 was pretty straightforward (for step 1, the main point of entry is a single sp).
I ran into some trouble figuring the easiest way to complete step 3. I created a DTS package with one object that updates the Cude on my server. This seems to be working fine. Then, I created step 3 in Agent and chose 'CmdExec' as the type of command. I then referenced the external exe 'dtsrun' to execute my DTS package.
Everything seems fine but I'm not sure I used the "best" way of doing things. Since the SQL Server Agent and DTS manager are both SQL Server tools (so is the Analysis services), I'm wondering if there wasn't an easier (thus more robust) way of completing my 3rd step?

I am having problems launching the Report Builder. I click the button and nothing happens. I did see the other suggestions about re-installing the .NET 2.0 Framework but that did not help. I tried to launch it directly from the address bar and I am getting the same reponse as when I click on the Report Builder button. I can access the Report Builder from other machines and it works fine. I did just recently install IE 7 and I tried to uninstall it and go back to IE 6 but I got the same results.
I've SQL instance used for Telecom Software, that SQL instance kept to run automatically consume 2 GB RAM and slow my machine..How could I configure it to lunch only when I open my Telecom Software and to close when I exit it.
I use one-way Transactional Replication on 38 servers with same configuration. On one server I have problem with OSQL.EXE path.

Problem is that the path to osql command in log ReplOutFile.txt is C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80ToolBinn but SQL is installed on path C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80ToolsBinn
Diferences is between Tool vs. Tools
I think that when server create OSQL command for preinit sql script he use STATIC path to osql.exe and there is my problem.
Which in summary is that I am trying to execute DTS packages containing OLAP tasks to process cubes from an application. It hangs and fails after an hour and some minutes.
I have launched the DTS on command prompt using DTSRUN on the computer I am trying to execute my code, and it executes marvellously.
DTSRUN can also execute a DTS on another physical server Alpha for instance which process a cube of AS2000 found on another physical server Beta for instance.
Since I need to check that each steps have been executed properly and that running DTSRUN from the application is not a possibility to do so, I need a way to be able to launch the DTS and get to know which steps is failing. the above code is supposingly a way but its failing on LoadFromSQLServer() method.
I am using SQL Server 2000 and AS2000 and .net 1.1 (modifying a legacy system to enable the above facility).
Dear all, I am looking for any snippet of code where you can launch a SSIS package by DMO or VB 6.0. I read that it was posible to call dts.runtime assembly from VB 6.0 but at first it might be converted or something like that. Issue comes from the moment that we€™ve got an ASP 3.0 scheduler for hundreds of dts and now we have to migrate them to sql25k. Thanks in advance for any info regarding this,
I'm new to SSRS. I would like to launch a report from a C# desktop application, supplying parameters programatically. I was able to do this using System.Diagnostics.Process p ... then p.Start(@"(path)iexplore.exe","(reportURL)"); I'm betting there's a much better way to do this.
Ideally I would like to create an IE window that shows only the report, that is, only the report viewer toolbar is visible, the IE toolbars and menus are hidden. I want to specify IE as the browser in case some other browser is installed as the default web browser.
Can anyone link me to a tutorial or provide a code snip? Thanks.
Not sure what has caused this to suddenly happen, but each time I attempt to launch Enterprise Manager I get the error:
"MMC cannot open the file C:MSSQLBINNSQL Server Enterprises Manager.MSC This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficient access rights to the file."
Now, I've already attempted to reinstall the client tools with no luck. The file does exist, and I have not changed my security settings -- at least that I'm aware of.
I use EM daily, so I'm perplexed as to why over night it stopped working. Is it possible a Windows Update could have caused this?
If you have any insight I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
I've searched and found a whole lot of information regarding Report Builder's occasional failures to launch, but every single suggestion has not worked for me. I'll try to describe this as completely as possible.
PC 1: Login with my user id, navigate to either my test or production report server, click 'Report Builder'; application launches and can be used as expected. Login with a 2nd user id, and it works. OS is Win2003 Server. Because both logins work on this PC, which tells me the security credentials are set correctly.
PC2: Login with my user id, navigate to either my test or production report server, click 'Report Builder'; application fails to launch. I do not receive an error message or dialog. The 'frames' for the Report Builder form flash momentarily on the screen. Login with same 2nd user id, and it fails the same way. OS is WinXP SP2; all updates.
PC3: Login with my user id, navigate to either my test or production report server, click 'Report Builder'; application fails to launch. I do not receive an error message or dialog. The 'frames' for the Report Builder form flash momentarily on the screen. Login with same 2nd user id, and it fails the same way. OS is WinXP SP2; all updates.
On PC2 and PC3, I navigate to the ClickOnce cache in my profile, right-click and 'run as' the reportbuilder.exe file. Choosing 'run as' my login and providing a password -- voila -- the application runs. I have to manually set the link to the report server, but it appears all else works fine. Same situation when I use my 2nd user id. If I don't 'run as' and provide the password (just double-click to launch the file), I get the same 'flash frames' above.
Ultimately, the push is to get PC2 and PC3 to function as does PC1. My resident .NET expert is stumped, as am I. Please help.
Hi all, I don't know if this is possible or not but what I want to do is include a few images on a report that will launch a little VB6 application when clicked. I've tried messing with the Navigation - URL properties of the image but am getting nowhere fast! Anyone any ideas?
