I have change the name of my host by "network neighborhood"
and user sp_dropserver and sp_addserver.
But when rebooting the host, I have this following message.
"Your SQL Server installation is either corrupt or has been
tampered with (unknown package id). Please run setup."
But I change the name of the hostanme to the former name, there
is no error.
At work, we are in the process of moving a server running SQL Server 7 from one domain to another. A part of this domain change will necessitate that the server be renamed. In a couple of tests that we ran we found that changing the domain does not cause problems, but changing the server name does. How does one register the databases with the new server name without reinstalling everything from scratch?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as we are under a time crunch here. Please reply to my email as I am unable to check this board often.
VPC is configured to use the wireless card on the host. Firewalls on both systems are completely disabled. Machines can ping each other. Both machines can access the Internet. I can browse the SQL Reporting Services Web Site on the Host from the Guest. Host SQL Install has remote connections enabled. If I browse for Network server from teh connect dialog on teh Guest, it finds the Host.
Why can't I connect to the Databse Engine on the Host from the Guest? I have tried both TCP/IP and Named Pipes and both show a connection failure. (Not a login failure)
If it matters, the Guest OS also has a SQL Database Engine running. But I don't know why that would stop me from connecting to a remote instance.
I don't know why my application on the internet try to access the SQL Server 2005, when the host still having the 2000 edition. I put the following connection string: Data Source=##DBSERVER##;Initial Catalog=##DBNAME##;User ID=##DBUSER##;Password=##DBPASSWORD##;
Isn’t everything fine with that? I created the table by host but dosen’t work. I’m wondering if can I conect straight with Data Base, without register in the server, like with mdb?
This is the error that I’m getting. 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I have a page that connects to SQL server. It works fine when running in local host but when I publish to the server, I get the following: An error has occurred 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) Any ideas on where to start? Thanks,Mark
Issues on Changing Name of our SQL Server Host Michael G (m1g@hotmail.com)
We are going to rename the Server machine Host Name that our SQL2000 (named instance) Server now resides on.
* I am searching for all references in Operating System items, such as .cmd, .bat. ftp files referring to it (eg., sqlservNM) * I am searching for all references in Operating System items, such as ODBC, VB ADO, DOA and DSN-less connections that refer to it. These references will be changed manually on the day of the change.
I am NOT so certain that I need to search for all SQL Server Objects referring to it, (eg., DTS packages and scheduled Jobs). Must these objects be changed manually or will they be redirected somehow?
I understand that for SQL Server rtrim is not needed in where clause equates because SQL Server
automatically trims the spaces. Is rtrim necessary when comparing to a host variable since rtrim is a deterministic function? It it needed in the following example Select .... where TEXT = rtrim(:I--HV-001)
TEXT is a varchar column in the SQL Server database and it is getting compared to the host variable.
I'm creating an app and have SQL Server 2005 Express installed. Most of the hosts now offering SQL Server 2005 are a bit pricey compared to those only offering 2000. Will I have any difficulty uploading my site and running the db on SQL 2000? Thanks in advance.

I have a application which uses the automatic asp.net membership stuff to make it work. (In app_data).

(i am not sure which forum to post this too) Hi, I imported a table onto my host's server, table_Login which has username password, and userID. userID is Primary Key & identity. When I had my code do insert of new user, I was getting error the Login.userID doesn't allow null values. Which shouldn't have mattered because userID is an identity. After making a diagram from Enterprise Manager, I noticed that I have two Login tables (although only one shows in Enterprise Manager's "Table" node view. The second table, which had none of the constraints that my table of the same name which is listed under the "Table" node does; appears to be the table which is being written to by my code. I can't find this table, Login(dbo), through Enterprise Manager, nor am i sure how to access it through Query Analyzer. Needless to say, I don't like this arrangement. and well tech support for this host seems to leave a lot to be desired. Anyone know what needs to be done so that I can fix it or fight with tech support to convince them that they should?

I have a web app and database created in sql server 2005 express. In addition to using the membership and role providers I have added custom tables and stored procedures to my db. When I try to export this with Sql Server Management Studio (not the express version) to my db on my shared host(sql server 2005) the custom tables and stored procedures are not transferred. How can this be accomplished? Thanks in advance.
I need help in generating a stored proc script (SQL Server 7.0)that will:
document the changes of each field in a dbase (SQL Server 7.0) appending the deltas (changes) to the dbase on a different, say production server for each affected field prompt the user (dba, developer, super user) for the fields to involve in the comparing and documenting of changes (deltas).
thanks in advance for your help!

Is it possible to host more than one site on the server that hosts reporting services?We have a web app that is accessed through intranet. This site is hosted (IIS)on the same server as the sql server 2005 database that is used as the backend. Is it possible to run reporting services from this same server? or does the reporting services default site require to be the only site hosted?

Can anybody please tell me how to rename an sql server express. I have an SQL server instance named 'PC075/Sqlexpress'. I have to change it to 'PC075'. Thanks,
if my computer name is x and sql server was installed and therefore took on the default name of x, can I change the sql server name to y at a later date while the computer name remains as x? If so how do I do it?
The sp_addserver is internal recognition. But I want to connect to sql server using the new name y. I am assuming setup needs to be run only if computer name also changes to y and this is not the case.
I would like to rename my SQL server. Someone suggested SQLServer and we went with it, but after some discussions with other developers we thought that this name would be a hackers delight. So now I need to rename it to something that wouldn't put a "bulls eye" on its back. Any suggestions? :-)
This machine is not in production just yet, so if I had to reinstall SQL it wouldnt' be that bad of an option.

Hi, I was looking to a server which was renamed from A_old to A_new. but the problem is the system table still shows an entry with A_old and is taking this as a local server name.
