Replicating Sql Server To Express Edition As Backup Application

Replicating From SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition To Remote SQL Server 2005 Express Edition

Aug 13, 2007

Hello,

I have been unable to create a replication from an SQL Server 2005 standard edition database to remote SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The remote express edition is on a Virtual Private Server we are leasing from a hosting company. The name of the remote DB is similar to vs572.si-vs572.com. I can connect to this with SQL server authentication through Management Studio and also with SSIS. But, I have been unable to create a push subscription (I have tried a test push subscription with the same publication to a local SQL Express server here in our office and this works fine).

Here is the error message: SQL Server Replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'VS572SQLEXPRESS'.

The hosting company had originally installed a shared SQL server which would not support replication. They then installed SQL Express edition and I was hoping this would allow us to run a replication.

I tried to connect to VS572SQLEXPRESS with out any luck. I check the remote connections, made sure replication was installed, etc., but no luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
Albert

Problem Migrating Application Database From SQL Server 2000 To Express Edition 2005

Jan 21, 2008

Hi there

I am new to SQL Server, but the current project that I am working on has the following requirement:-

1) Migrate the application (a servlet based web application on Apache Tomcat) from Solaris to Wintel
2) Migrate the supporting database from SQL Server 2000 to Sql Server 2005
3) Get IIS to communicate with Tomcat for serving servlet/jsp etc to the client

Though I successfully completed item 1 above, am stuck at item 2. Details are below

Actions taken for item 2

A. Installed MS 2005
B. Created new database in MS 2005 (logged in as user 'sa')
C. Generated SQL scripts (such as create table table_A etc) from existing MS 2000
D. Genearted SQL scripts (such as insert into table_A etc) from existing MS 2000
E. Created new schema in MS 2005
F. Ran scripts C & D in the new schema. All tables are records populated.
G. Obtained new JDBC driver and test run to see if connection is working fine, and it worked. Even ran an sql statment

Code Block[select count(*) from sa.table_A]

and got appropriate response.

H. When I made the application to talk to this new database (which is a copy of Production from step C, D above), it's behaving as though it cannot find the record.
I. When I further debugged, I realised that the web application is excuting queries without mentioning the schema. For eg.

Code Block[Select firstName, lastName from table_A]

Or rather it assumes that the user connecting to database is same as the schema name.

J. To further ascertain my point, I ran the query

Code Block[Select firstName, lastName from sa.table_A]

and it worked!

Now the real problem is that I cannot modify the existing code to append a schema name and this approach is rather not recommended best practise.

I tried to match the user name with the schema name, even made this schema as default to the user. But still not finding any luck.

I request all you experts out there to help me out with this problem.

Regards,

prad.nair

Problem Replicating From Std Edition To Developer Edition

Aug 4, 2006

Trying to replicate,

from: Win 2K Server, SQL Std Edition 8.00.818 SP3
to: Win XP Pro, SQL Developer Edition 8.00.2039 SP4

XP has Firewall 'Off', and I added sqlservr.exe and port 1433 to the exceptions list.

Subscription on Win 2K Server gets error that it cannot connect to the subscriber system: SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

Ping from the Win2K to the WinXP box works fine.

The WinXP SQL login works when I connect from my desktop to the XP box using both SQL Ent Mgr and Query Analyzer.

Any ideas?
