Restore Back To SQL 2000
Oct 1, 2007
Is it possible to uninstall SQL 2005 and reinstall SQL 2000 if I need to? I would obviously have a backup copy of the database(s) from the SQL 2000 version. If so, is this a major ordeal to perform?

I am maintaining a .net 1.0 asp.net web application that accesses a SQL server 2000 database. I need to backup the database and then restore it on a laptop. Currently it resides on a server. The problem is that on the server they are using sql server 2005. If I backup using 2005 and then try and restore this database using SQL server 2000 or 2005 on the laptop, I get an error message. "Too many backup devices specified for backup or restore; only 64 are allowed. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
What can I do to restore the database? Must it be backed up with SQL server 2000 and then restored with SQL Server 2005?
Please help!

Hello,I am hoping you can help me with the following problem; I need to process the following steps every couple of hours in order to keep our Sql 2000 database a small as possible (the transaction log is 5x bigger than the db).1.back-up the entire database2.truncate the log3.shrink the log4.back-up once again.As you may have determined, I am relatively new to managing a sql server database and while I have found multiple articles online about the topics I need to accomplish, I cannot find any actual examples that explain where I input the coded used to accomplish the above-mentioned steps. I do understand the theory behind the steps I just do not know how to accomplish them!If you know of a well-documented tutorial, please point me in the right direction.Regards.

Hi All,
I have a problem that I haven't been able to solve it. At the end I am confused I need some clarifications.
Background:
I am using full back up recovery plan. I am getting daily full back up and every 15 minutes log_back up. I created these back ups by using Database Maintenance option. However I have been trying to restore the log_back up, but I couldn't achieve it.
Question1- When I take log back up do I have to activate "Remove inactive entries from transaction log" or not??
Info: When the log back up was done it deletes the latest 4th one. I have done this without no reason. Should I keep like that or should I allow the files being deleted right away after transaction logs backed up?
Question2- I cannot restore the log files I don't know why? I have followed every description that I read. After I restored full back up with NOREOCVERY the database hangs out says "loading" but it doesn't do anything and when I try to restore it doesn't accept the latest log back up file and it urges me to put newer file than I have but ıt is only latest log back up that I have Why does this happen?
I am so confused. Please help me
:confused:
Thanks
LS

I had to transfer my database from one server to another. Both are running SQL 2000. I backed the database up and moved it to the new server however when I try to do a restore I get the following message:
The media set for database "xxx' has 2 family members but only 1 are provided. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
I did some searching and found a couple of posts that mentioned something about the back up including 2 files.
My problem is that the machine I backed this up from crashed when it was shut down and would not reboot so all of the data and the original database do not exist. Is there any hope of restoring this database. It is pretty critical.
Thanks,
Melissa :-)

Does anybody know of a way to rollback SQL Server 2005
databases back to SQL Server 2000? Is there a way of doing it without
resorting to Copy Database Wizard? I love to find a way of attaching a SS 2005 database
to a SS 2000 instance without any issues.
I recently upgraded to SS 2005 and I am very unhappy with the SS 2005 and I
want to rollback to SS 2000, which was a lot more stable. I am having
several major issues that are affecting my whole company's day-to-day
operations and the managers are not happy. Some of the issues include
night time batch running very sluggish for no apparent reason. This is a
biggest problem because it only occurs once or so a week and causes a disturbance
with the daily activities when the night time processing isn€™t completed on
time. The rest of the time, the batch processing runs great, even a little better then on SS 2000. I
don't believe it is a matter of my application needing to be retuned because if
that was the case, then why isn't it running sluggish every night? Also,
it's never the same day that the sluggish behavior occurs. If it was occurring
on the same night, then I would have something to investigate within our
application, but it doesn't. Another issue that I am having involves a
night time job that restores a copy of the production database to the Data
Warehouse server to be used for updating the data warehouse. Again, most
of the time it runs great (~2 1/2 hours), but once or twice a week, it goes
stupid and takes 6 1/2 hours for no apparent reason. Again, it is not happening
the same day either, which could give me something to invesigate. On SS 2000, this same job ran flawlessly. Never I did I run into situation that the
database restoration took that long to run. Even another issue involves a SQL Server Agent Job that was put into suspended
state. What's a suspended state and how can I get it out of suspended
state? I can find no information about suspended state in BOL. I
did a Google and nothing came up. If this suspended state was put
in for security reasons, great, but then tell me how I can remove the suspended
state. I am also not happy with the
fact that I can't get accurate information about the queries that are actively
running at that particular moment. In SS 2000, when I noticed high CPU
usage on the server, I would run the sp_who2 active stored proc and it would
show me all the active thread and how much CPU it was consuming. I would
then find the running threads with the highest CPU numbers and investigate the
query and see if we could improve it. Now in SS 2005, I get in the same
situation and run the sp_who2 stored proc, and there is no smoking gun.
All of the active threads are showing very little CPU usage, which I am very
suspect of. What the heck happen to sp_who2? I looked at some of
the other ways of looking at running processes (i.e... sys.sysprocesses) and
they don't appear to be giving the information that I need.
I am very unhappy and I just want to roll back to SS 2000 and wait a couple of
years before I upgrade to SS 2005.

hi, I would like to know the correct reaction for a crash in both senarios.
First senario,
I made a full back up at 6 am , then scheduled sql server to make transaction log back up every 2 hours (8,10,12,2 pm,4,6,8) . If I have a crash at 12:30. How would I resotre the data in the first senario....Can I restore the full back up done at 6 am then restore the last transaction log backup ( which is 12 Noon ) . I am not sure If I need to resotre the whole tran from 6 am till the time it was crashed.
Second senario,
I made a full back up at 6 am, then scheduled sql server to make Incremental backup every 2 hours (8,10,12,2 pm,4,6,8) . If I have a crash at 3:00 pm. How would I resotre the data in the second senario. ....Do I restore the full backup at 6 am then restore each incremental backup backwords ( 2,12,10,8)
AS you can see, I am not sure how to deal with this issue, I do appreciate your feedback.
Best regards
Ahmed

Hello,
I have some C# (.NET 2.0) code that performs back-ups and also can perform restores of back-up files. I would like to validate the integrity of a file prior to initiating a restore operation. In other words, I want to know, before I try to restore, if the file is just a random file (picture, work doc, zipped backup, etc.) or if it is a valid SQL backup file.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
hassiah

I had an issue where my database was transfered from a SQL 2000 database to a SQL 2005 database.
The SQL 2005 database works fine, but my development environment is SQL 2000.
So I created a new SQL 2000 database and used the SQL 2005 DTS wizard to transfer the data. As far as I can tell, everything went fine, and the DTS wizard showed no errors.
However, when I changed my website application's connection string to the new database, the application (LaGarde StoreFront 6.0) throws a licensing error. When I checked with LaGarde, they said that it was a permissions issue, that the permissions on the database where incorrect.
I never really heard of that, but have no way to check. I really need to transfer this database back to 2000. Any help?

We are internally upgrading all of our SQL boxes to SQL Server 2005. Unfortunately our web production SQL box is hosted externally at a hosting company and it will be staying as a SQL server 2000 box. Can the new ssis wizards/functionality update tables on a sql 2000 box or a better question what would be the best way to update data (not necessarily copy whole tables) from a 2005 db to a 2000 db?

I've developed a web application and to be honest I've been a bit dumb and not checked with my hosts. I assumed they used SQL Server 2005. But no, they only use 2000.
I'm sure I'll come across more problems but the first I'm having is I've used the ROW_NUMBER() function in a few stored procedures, but in 2000 I'm getting this error message
'ROW_NUMBER' is not a recognized function name.
Here is the stored procedure for reference
SELECT RowNum
FROM
(
SELECT id, category, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY id) as RowNum FROM custrecords
)
as CustRecord

I would appreciate a bit of advice here. There is a largish complaint here regarding a cutomer who has entered data in 1 of our online forms, but we suspect this was then overwritten by a cached form she also had open.
Anyway to cut a long story short i need to roll back the database to a point in time.
Not something i have ever had to do.
The row where the id field is equal to 3352, and this would have been written to the database at 14:58:36 on 08-aug-2005. This was over written by the data in row with id 3380 at about 11am this morning, now is this is a live database on a webserver so i cant compromise its uptime as it get written to about 3 times a minute, so how should i go about this?
Anyway, what do you think?
Cheers

I am having a bit of a mare on the database backup front - i.e. monster
DB, not a great deal of space to back it up into.
As I do the backup, the file on the disk seems to stay at 2KB
How does the file get written? Is there a temp somewhere first?
Cheers in advance - Dave

Apparently you cannot go backwards. Once 2005 Express is installed, even removing it does not allow you to setup MSDE 2000 again. So there is no "trying it out" option.
Unfortunately, our software does not use 2005 Express. I tried it out, and now have a useless testing workstation that can't have MSDE 2000 installed again.
Any ideas on how to break the chain here are welcome.
