Reasons To Go SQL 2005 Over SQL 2000
Aug 11, 2006
Hi all,
I am working with an outside consultant to upgrade our SQL 7 instance. He wants to upgrade to SQL 2000 and I want to go to SQL 2005. I want to have concrete reasons backed up with documentation as to why we should go SQL 2005 as opposed to SQL 2000.
For eg. support (why 2005 is better, ie. longer support), security(More secure, documentation), management, stability (number of patches released last year) etc.
I'd really appreciate it if someone could point me to an appropriate resource.
Thanks all,
SA.

Dear group,we are running a SQL-Server Database which is about 30 GB large. Thepurpose of this database is to contain periodic data from automaticdevices which insert values into some tables.Unfortunately most of these tables don't have a key (and a key can onlybe introduced when the application programmers have changed theirsoftware). Tables have this structuredeviceno timestamp datawhere we expect for every device and timestamp one row of data.In the ongoing operation it happens that the index of this large tablegets corrupted and a select from this table yields 2 rows for somedevices.In fact a select "SELECT DEVICENO, TIMESTAMP, COUNT(*) FROM TABLE GROUPBY DEVICENO, TIMESTAMP HAVING COUNT(*) > 1" returns lots of data.After rebuild of the indexes the table is "clean" again.What could cause the index corruption ?Missing key?Faulty application program ?a combination of both ?How can i prevent this from happening again, as long as there is noupdated database / application ?I'd be grateful for any useful commentRegardsUli

After viewing many reports in reportviewer, I sporadically get the following error message. Each attempt to access any report in report viewer after the error message first appears results in the same error message for a bit of time until it appears to reset itself. I have read that this may be related to running out of memory for report processing... We have 2GB of RAM. How can I prevent this from happening or force the system to free up some memory if it is exhausing the available memory?
For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the ProhibitDtd property on XmlReaderSettings to false and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method.

I have seen one other post about this and using IP addressing rather that DNS names - I am using DNS.
I have a large report that runs fine in report manager, but as soon as I try and export it to Excel it takes an age to run and I get the above error.
Any ideas anyone?
Oh, and I export loads of other reports to Excel with no problems on the same server.

When we develop with the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Reporting Service.
We got the exception on some reports.
For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the ProhibitDtd property on
XmlReaderSettings to false and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method.
Ther report renders well first time, but if we click the title to sort the report, it will throw the exception.
And It occurred that we use IE6 and IE7 to view the report at same time, but if we use the same version brower, there are no exception.
Can somebody help me?

This error comes up in the print preview and nothing prints.
We are using VS-2005, SQL 2005 and SSRS 2005.
We had the same problem yesterday , so we have reinstalled IIS, .Net Framework 2.0 and Reporting Services, then reconfigured RS security, uploaded all the reports and enabled remote errors. After doing everything this error was gone and we were operating pretty fine.
Suddenly just we started getting the same annoying message."ROOT ELEMENT MISSING" from Report Server and from Report Manager we have "
For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the ProhibitDtd property on XmlReaderSettings to false and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method. "
Please Help. I need to fix this ASAP.

Hi
We would like to install Sql 2005 Enterprise Edition (including database engine, reporting service, integration service and analysis service) as a sepearte instance on a server which already has Sql 2000 with reporting services and analysis services. We do not want to disturb the existing sql 2000 setup.
If we do that then what will happen to my earlier sql 2000 reporting service? Will it be upgraded to sql 2005 reporting service? I heard that reporting services are instance unaware application. Where will be the default reporting service database available?
Please help us.
Regards,
Sankar N

I do a clean install of SQL Server + RS + SP1 with standard setup on Windows Server 2003. I create a simple report (select * from aTable). This report (actually any report) shows the error message "For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the ProhibitDtd property on XmlReaderSettings to false and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method."
This has to do with security settings in Windows Server 2003. On Windows XP everything works fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Edit: The reports do work in the preview tab in BIDS.

I am attempting to move some SQL 2000 databases to SQL 2005. My main production database does not seem to want to move. When I use the SQL 2005 GUI the .bak backup file is marked 'Incomplete'. When I attempt to restore the backup file I get a 'RESTORE detected an error on page (0:0) in database' message. I saw a thread in the SQL Express forum suggesting trying to restore from the T-SQL level to get the GUI out of the picture and I get the same 'error on page (0:0)' message. However when I take the same file and use SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager it restores with no problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi, I am trying to edit some data from a SQL2000-datasource in ASP.NET 2.0 and have a problem with a column that has bit-data and is used for selection. SQL2005 works fine when declaring <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter DefaultValue="TRUE" Name="APL" Type="boolean" /> </SelectParameters>When running this code with SQL2000, there are no error-msgs, but after editing a record the "APL"-column looses its value of 1 and is set to 0. Looks like an issue with type-conversion, we've hit incompatibilities between SQL200 and 2005 with bit/boolean several times before. So, how is this done correctly with SQL2000? (I've tried setting the Type to "int16" -> err. Also setting Defval="1" gave an err) ThanksMichael

I have to merge the data from two databases, one is in SQL Server 2005 format, one is in 2000. The merged data will then reside on a SQL Server 2000 platform. Is there an easy way to do this through Management Studio or Enterprise Manager? Or will we have to export the data from the 2005 database to a flat file and import it into a new 2000 database. And then do the merge?
TIA

I am in the process of migrating from Sql Server 2000 to 2005. Part of my plan is to move some database's to 2005, but use the 2000 compatibility mode for the short term. My issue is this, our DR boxes are still on SQL Server 2000, would I still be able to use our log shipping processes? Or would I be better off in starting with migrating the DR boxes to 2005 first?
Thanks in advance.

I have several SQL 2000 servers I need to setup transactional (non updatable) replication with. The structure is:
SQL Server 2000 as Publisher/Distributor
SQL Server 2005 Standard as Subscriber
The connection is via the Internet with snapshots using FTP.
I setup the first set (2 databases at location A). They work wonderfully. I created the publication and then subscribed using MGMT Studio for 2K5.
II am setting up the same scenario for location B. Here is my problem:
In MGMT Studio I connect to the publisher (SANDRA). I right-click a publication and choose New Subscriptions..., the publication is already selected. I click next - Run each agent at its Subscriber is selected and the only option (this is desired), I click Next
HERE IS THE PROBLEM:
On the Subscriber's screen there are no Subscribers listed. When setting up location A the subscribing server was listed and I could choose a database. The Next button is greyed out and there is no way to create/add one.
I tried setting up the subscription by right-clicking the subcribing server's Replication folder in MGMT Studio but I get the same result (except that I have to authenticate with the publishing server which works fine).
WHAT'S DIFFERENT:
Location A is SQL Server Standard (SP3) running on SBS2K3. It is obviously on a domain and so SQL Server and the SQL Agent are running under domain accounts. Location B is a Windows XP SP2 machine running SQL Server Personal Edition (it actually says Development Edition in the properties window).
The databases are the same strucutre, different data. At location A the firewall is set to allow 1433->*any* and *any*->1433 where *any* is 1024 or higher. On the XP machine the firewall is set to allow port 1433. I don't think this is the issue because I've turned the firewall off on the XP machine and I get the same result.
ANY IDEAS?

Most of our sql servers ar still sql 2000. Our programmers created many sql 2000 database diagrams using EM. But they can not access them under sql 2005. (They now have only sql 2005 tools installed on their boxes.)
Question: can we reinstall the sql 2000 client tools on their boxes without affecting the current sql 2005 install on their boxes?
Question: is there any workaround negating the need to ihstall the sql 2000 client?
TIA,

Hello Everyone,
I'm trying to connect to Desktop SQL Server 2000 from Windows mobile PC Emulator (VS 2005). I need a direct connection using connection string to SQL Server 2000 through local wireless network without IIS.
Bellow is the code that I use. After executing this code I get an error on line Conn.Open(). Error says SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
SQL is un and running, and I can log in using SA username from the desktop. Even if I chance IP for another SQL server in my connection string I still get the same error. There is no firewall of any kind running.
Dim connectionSTR As String = "Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=192.168.0.202,1433;initial catalog=MyDB;user id=sa;password=;"
Dim Conn As SqlConnection
Conn = New SqlConnection(connectionSTR)
Conn.Open()
If Conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then
MessageBox.Show("Open")
End If
About my environment: SQL Server 2000 is running on Desktop PC with Windows XP SP2. Application which I need to connect to SQL Server is in Visual Studio 2005. I execute the application in Windows Mobile PC Emulator and try to connect to SQL Server from emulator.
Your advice and help is very appreciated
Thank you

Hello,
I would like to ask you if there is better to recreate database structure on 2005 from 2000 and move data or to just load
2000 backup.
Currently I loaded the backup, but I am wondering if there might be slightly better performance on 2005 when recreating structure on 2005 to loading 2000 backup?
Does loading 2000 backup create 2005 binary structure?
Thanks for help in advance

How do SQL 2000 service packs play a role in upgrading? That is, can SQL 2000 Standard with no Service Packs(SP) be upgraded to SQL 2005 Standard, or does SQL 2000 Standard have to have a certain service pack??

If we changed the sort order from BIN to BIN2 but kept everything else the same will it have any effect on replication? So in SQL 2005 if I were to change my default collation from Latin1_General_Bin to Latin1_General_Bin2, would that cause replication to break? I suspect that it will not be an issue since it is just sort order that is changing and the code page stays the same.
BTW, this is transactional replication. Sorry, I left that out of my original post.
Thanks,
Grant

I want to use SQL 2000 with VS 2005. I do have SQL 2005 Express installed but i would rather use SQL 2000 because all my DBs are currently in this version and I want to get up and developing now and then convert them to SQL 2005 one at a time. LATER...When I try to connect to SQL 2000 through VS 2005 I keep getting this error that tells me it can not connect to SQL 2005 Express. This is my conncetion string:
Const connectionString As String = "Server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=True;Database=Northwind"One thing that I see wrong with the error is that I thought SQL 2005 did not have Northwind anymore. And 2 this is a sample app from MS website. So why would it try to connect to SQL 2005 Express. This is my first try at connecting to a DB with VS 2005.Please Help.-J

Hi, I am currently developing my website to ASP.NET 2.0 using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.
However, after long hour to figure out, my hosting company doesn't use
sql 2005. They only have SQL Server 2000. Even I have to pay for using
SQL 2000.
My question is, what is the different between SQL 2000 and 2005 in term of using it in a server?
My condition is that I am developing my database under SQL Server 2005
EE, now, can it be uploaded to be used in a server with SQL 2000?
Thanks in advanced for all help, time and your support. HAVE a good day!

We are starting a new project and for production we are all set, we are getting a new server and decided to go with 2005 (the rest of our production machines are running 2000).
Could someone let me know if we will have any problems installing 2005 on our Development and QA Servers that are currently hosting 2000 or would it be in our best interest to purchase separate servers to run 2005? If you could share your first hand experiences that would be great.
Thanks
