I will be installing a new, SBS2003 R2 server that comes with SQL 2005 Workgroup Edition. We currently have a SQL 2000 Standard server. Can I installed SQL2000 Standard on SBS2003 R2? The reason for this is that we're not ready to migrate to SQL2005 and we need to continue running SQL2000.
Thanks.
I'd like to upgrade from my current SQL Server version: 09.00.3042 (Workgroup edition that comes with SBS upgrade) to the standard edition that I've just purchased. I've attempted to run setup.exe SKUUPGRADE=1 from the command prompt and it just tells me that there's nothing new to install.
I don't really want to uninstall the current installation just to do something that shouldn't be complicated to do, upgrading software versions should not be a difficult process.
Does anybody have any experience with this?
Hi there
Our ISP hosts our data on SQL Server Enterprise, but I also going to host the databases on my local machine.
As it's just local would Standard edition do? If I migrate the databases over, will it work?
Thanks in advance.
I am getting the following warning on a Live SQL 2000 system:
This SQL Server has been optimized for 8 concurrent queries. This limit has been exceeded by 1 queries and performance may be adversely affected.
Reading about this error I realised that, by mistake, the version installed is a personal edition instead of the standard edition.
I am thinking to backup the databases, uninstall SQL 2000 Personal edition, install Standard edition and restore the databases back.
OR, disconnect the databases, uninstall the current version, install the standard version and re-connect the databases.
I haven't found within Microsoft any advice how to upgrade the personal version to the standard edition.
Because it is a live system, I would not like to mess the system up. Can you please advice?
Many thanks

Hello!I would like to change the SQL server 2000 from Standard version toDevelopment edition. I have two database running on this server, bothreplicated, with few jobs, etc ... Can you recommend the easiest way to dothis? I heard, it would be as easy as, detaching the databases, deletingcurrent SQL software, installing different one, and attaching the olddatabases back. I doubt that is true, so that's why I'm asking here for anyreal-life instructions.Thanks for your input!Kind regards,Dejan--

I am currently trying to migrate to a new computer. My old computer (Box 1) has Windows 2000 Ver 5.0 SP4 as an operating system. My new computer (Box 2) has Windows XP Professional Ver 5.1 SP2 as an operating system.
Currently, I have Microsoft SQL Server 2000 running on Box 1. When I used the CD to install the software on Box 2, it will not allow a full install. Just the Client portion. The exact message I get is "Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition is not supported on this operating system. Only client components will be available for installation.
How in the world do I get this software to install on Box 2? I've seen and downloaded, the service packs but I don't know where to go from there.
Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.

Hello,
I recently upgraded my MSDE server to SQL Server 2000 database. After the upgrade, I see, every minute,in the logfile that the database is starting whilst in Enterprise manager the database is up and running. I would be grateful if you could bail me out of this anomaly.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Would there be any issues with installing an MSSQL 2000 32 bit instance onto a windows 2003 64 bit server?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been tasked with upgrading around 150 SQL Server 2000 DTS packages to SSIS in SQL Server 2005 standard edition. I made a backup of the 2000 database upon which the DTS packages operate and restored it to the SQL 2005 server. So far, so good. I have the database in place. Now I need to get the DTS packages themselves into the SLQ 2005 server. I think I need to check my install and make sure that I have the SQL Server 2000 DTS services installed on the SQL 2005 server. I can do that.
However, I wonder what would be the most effective way to physically get the packages from the SQL 2000 server to the SQL 2005 server. Should I use structured storage files? If so, how do I go about opening them in SQL 2005 in order to save them to SQL server 2005?
I should mention that these packages make heavy use of ActiveX scripting so I am looking at rewriting them from scratch to be SSIS packages. I just need the packages on the SQL Server 2005 box so I can make sure I am creating exactly the same functionality in 2005 as existed in SQL server 2000. Each DTS 2000 individual package tends to be fairly simple and I think I can greatly improve the process by consolidating them.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

When i install sql server 2000 i have a message
" Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition Server Component is not supported on this operating system only client components will be available for installation"
Hence I cannot install properly. I installed only the client componets. Thereafter when I went through Enterprise Manager and tried to establish a connection, I failed. It said server does not exist.
What to do now?
I found out that if one has sql server 2000 standard editon the prerequisties are
Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 with Service Pack 5 or later, Windows NT Server 4.0 Enterprise Edition with Service Pack 5 or later, Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Advanced Server, or Windows 2000 Datacenter Server.
I have windows xp professional version on which i am installing sql server standard edition.
Which of the above exists in my OS. Or which should I download.
Thanks
Hi,
One of our main servers running on SQL Server 2000 Enterprise edition which has transactional replications on it which replicates to other servers running on the SQL Server 2000 Enterprise edition as well.
Due to Hardware problems the server is being migrated to a new machine but the client has installed SQL Server 2000 standard edition on the new machine.
We will be using a two processor cpu with 4GB RAM and we are also not planning about clustering. Is there any problem if i migrate the server in Standard Edition will the replications work properly between Standard and Enterprise editions.
What other complications can be there if i switch over to standard edition from enterprise edition
Thanks in ADVANCE

I would like to ask regarding sa performance difference between the two version of SQL 2005. Which is better the SQL 2005 workgroup or the standard edition..?
Darren Bernabe Blanco
We have got the wrong version of SQL Server 2005 due to not having SSIS. We have loads of DTS packages running and I have tried to import them and its shows no SSIS service installed.
Is the route to upgrade straight forward? We have a couple of databases running on 2005 upgraded from 2000 but most still are active on 2000.
Cheers

Hi,
We have replication setup on a sql server 2000. We encountered issue that the distribution agent goes down (distrib.exe stop running) in the event of network connection broken. We would like to know:
is this the expected result that the distribution agent will go down in the event of communication failure between the distribution server and subscriber server?
if not, is there a way to programmatically control and restart the agent?
Is there any sp in SQL server which can monitor the replication communication error message?
is there any sp in SQL server which can be run to restart the agent?
For the best practice, what do you think we can do to achieve an €˜event-driven€™ kind of mechanism so when an communication breaks, the agent can be restarted by the triggered event (or at least a simple way to automatically restart)?
Thanks

I am putting up a website this month, its pretty complex in terms of the data being stored. We expect to have 1000 users in our first month and grow exponentially from there. In addition, users will be uploading content to the site (mostly jepgs and PDFs).
We currently have a dedicated server and need to decide whether to go with Microsoft SQL Server Workgroup or Standard. Any advice on this?
If we went with workgroup, what is the threshold for the number of users before we would have to switch to standard? Also...are there any huge limitations that would make our site fail if we went with workgroup?
thanks,
sb
I am using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. I am planning on upgrading to either Workgroup or Standard edition. While working with Express Edition I did find out that this version does not support backup to a network drive.
My question is:
Is it possible to backup directly to a network drive using a Workgroup/ Standard edition of SQL Server rather than backing up to a local drive and then 'copy and paste' to a network drive like the Express Edition.My other question is :
Given a database limit of 50GB, which one of the editions, Workgroup or Standard, will be appropriate for use.Thank you for your time and patience.

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??
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi, all. I see two conflicting notes about whether one can install the SQL Server 2005 Trial/Evaluation and then upgrade to Workgroup or Standard editions, without uninstalling the Evaluation edition.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143393.aspx seems to say YES, you can upgrade to Workgroup/Standard from the Evaluation edition.
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobuy/faq.mspx says NO, you can only upgrade to Enterprise edition from the Evaluation edition. For Workgroup and Standard, you must uninstall the Trial first.
Which is the correct answer?
Thanks,

We got SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP3 running on Windows 2003 Standard Edition server.
Now, we would like to apply windows 2003 SP2 to the Operating System.
We are concerned that whether windows 2003 SP2 is compatible with SQL server 2000 (SP3)?
I was looking at the application compatibility chart for Windows 2003 SP2.Among them Microsoft SQL Server Standard (2000) was listed but with no Service pack details. And also does Standard means standard edition there?
My Question - Is windows 2003 server SP2 compatible with SQL Server 2000 (SP3) Standard Edition? And what if I plan to apply SP4 to Sql Server ?
Please help. Thanks

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
If I have an instance of SQL Server 2005 Workgroup, am I able to run simple ETL packages against it? By simple I mean:
1. Extract data from a comma separated flat file.
2. Load the flat file data to an Access (2002/2003) database.
3. Load the flat file data to a SQL 2005 table.
4. Execution of .dtsx package.
5. Ways to execute a package (i.e. can schedule a package to be run with the SQL Server Agent)?
6. Notification (i.e. SMTP email) on events from package (i.e. on error).
I have been using the Developer Edition, which I know has all/most of the features of Enterprise. How do the SSIS features change between Developer and Workgroup editions?
TIA!!!
Hi there,
I have a problem understanding the feature comparison chart for the different Sql2005 editions. It has the two lines (right under Database Engine)
- Microsoft .Net Framework
- CLR runtime integration
According to the chart the Workgroup Edition does not support the .Net Framework. But it does support the CLR runtime integration. So what does that effectively mean? What is possible, what not (like writing SPs in C#, access to web services or I/O)?
Would be great if someone could clarify the support for CLR/.Net in that area
Thanks in advance, Frank
Good day,
We have developed an application using VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
Currently, our client is asking if they could buy the SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition.
Is it ok? I'm afraid that the SP we made using CLR and any other functionality might not work.
We are suggesting our client to use the SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition instead. But for them to save money, can they use the Workgroup Edition instead?
I would really appreciate your help.
Thanks and more power,
Arthur
